Feeling much less blargh

[smigenboger]

I read The Last Question by Isaac Asimov, which was linked in a Life Advice thread.

Thank you thank you thank you for linking that, it really made my night!

The ending made me squee very hard in intellectual delight.

It made me wonder if the story is supposed to be a cyclic recurrence, where it destroys itself in the process, and is rebuilt by whatever creatures accomplishes the singularity first, or if the big bang is still a mystery source-point for everything-as-we-know-it, and the all-knowing AC essentially recreated the galaxy in the spirit of the ancient religion of man.
Or in better phrasing, was the AC god all along, or did it play god once it recreated the universe?

 There are unburned woods near those craters. And I think there is a mod that causes new chunks to be generated with hell terrain, so that could be employed to RALLY shake things up.

[Gunner-Chan]

Ooh! I'd love that mod. As long as it's easy to enable and disable~

 I'm looking it up now, but I stumbled upon what is perhaps the one sensible discussion on the recent blog update by Notch.

Edit: Found it, although it's a bit obtuse.

Reading that story made me kinda happy, since I haven't read an Asimov story since high school.

So I need to get this old guy because only he can cure somebody or whatever. So I go to the cave where he lives to get him. He then tells me we'll only talk to pretty girls. So knowing that this game will throw some amusing stuff in my way I rounded up all the fame characters and turned one of my male characters female through shenanigans.
First off, Katt



She has none of his shit and promptly serves a beatdown.

Then we move on to Spar. This first picture followed by Katts first picture is the same text he uses for each character, "If you insist I may think about it... If the little girls will kiss me?"




And finally we have Nina. Images start right after the creepy kiss the little girls line.






Now guess which one is not actually a girl!

I thought I'd never say it, but thank you UN.

That it is. Haven't played this since I was like 10. It's a lot different from what I remember. And a lot more grindy than the first game.

Hey, Google and/or Chrome has an option now to show you which part of the website is being quoted whilst still in the search window, that's pretty nifty.

Fun times. You more-or-less have to pimp out Nina to a letchy old dude, and other such fun as having to beat the crap out of a horny witch, or strip naked and wrestle a half naked fellow.

 Then there was nearly getting cooked alive at that one restaurant. And the fat queen you have to go inside.

The restaurant was the naked wrestling part, unless you kept all your equipment.
