Not the seat. The rim. The seat doesn’t create a seal.

That’s the dumbest part. There’s no guarantee that this ipo bid is going to pan out. Huffman is betting big, it’s just too bad he’s so full of himself that he doesn’t realize his actions will probably be what causes this ipo to fail.

He wanted to fly under the radar and make changes that look good on paper while keeping the community relatively the same. Instead he made a splash so big that major news outlets are still talking about it months later, and now he’s actively alienating the volunteer work that holds the whole site together.

“Become profitable” is just their stated goal.

I think that their actual goal is to look profitable for the upcoming ipo so that the CEOs can cash a fat check and leave. They likely don’t care about what happens after that.

So the “become profitable while simultaneously destroying everything that made it valuable” platitude is more like “they’re cutting down the tree for the wood without thinking about the squirrels”

Mindustry is a completely different (and much less frustrating) game on steam, for what it’s worth. Mostly due to the fact mouse+keyboard is MUCH more intuitive than touch controls. Also fun fact, as long as you’re running the same version, you can port your save game between your phone and your pc.

I saw Slay the Spire mentioned exactly once, so I’m going to put the highlight on my current favorite mobile game:

Slay the Spire is a deck-builder roguelike that gives you a different experience every single game. It encourages broken mechanics and rewards inventiveness while having enough rng to feel like a fresh experience. It’s challenging enough to make winning feel like you earned it, but not so challenging that you can’t win if you really try.

The android version is a pay-once full port of the pc version, achievements and all. The touch controls are very well done. I’ve been hooked since 2020 when I discovered the game on steam.
