DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Bug: Schrodinger's chains
« on: June 02, 2018, 05:55:51 pm »
For some reason, the game fluctuates between knowing how many chains there are or not. For example, a job being cancelled because the dwarf "needs chain" despite a chain having just been forged and there being no other jobs that it could have been used in. A bit later, however, the chain will be "found," and will be used if I reassign the job.

« on: June 02, 2018, 05:34:25 pm »Where did I call someone a Nazi?
I have no idea if you did or not. I was referring to Reelya's analogy, not your comments.
Does anyone have any standards here?
Is that really a valid conclusion to draw?

TLDR of the above post: Nazi-ism was used because it is a well-known historical example, not merely because of the shock value.

As I type this my siege engineers are decimating the tavern population.

Does the woman in that picture resemble Charlotte Staples Lewis?

Judging from the last few pages, KT may have been mistaken about Bay12's only flamewars being quantum mechanics discussions.
Also, the thread has derailed. It needs to be split off somehow, preferably to the lower forums.
If the original poster does not wish to or cannot split off parts (I don't know whether SMF allows moving only parts of a thread), one of those interested in continuing the new, not-quite-related-to-OP discussion can quote all the relevant posts in a new General Discussion post, and we can allow this thread to sink out of sight of the first page.

Re-listened to Toccata and Fugue in D Minor and re-read some of GEB. (For some reason, they 'feel' similar. Probably not a coincidence.)

(I wouldn't actually have to say anything, if we're waiting. However, let's go along with Egan's suggestion.)
We dream of some day finding a way to become immortal.
