I’m Chinese, I’ve never seen a map like this before. We usually just use Mercator but split along the Atlantic ocean instead of the Pacific. This map is just kinda bizzare. Why is Antarctica so prioritized? Why’s it in portrait orientation? I think it’s just intentionally weird, which is still cool.
Yep when I first joined I thought it stood for main Instance.

Wait your signature is supposed to just be your name in cursive? But then wouldn’t that defeat the point? I thought in the olden days it was supposed to be like a proof that you were the right person since you knew how your signature was written.
Anyways, for my signature I just kinda designed it. It was ages ago so I forgot my process, but it was deliberate and I remember making a whole bunch of sketches before finding one I liked. And since then I’ve incrementally improved it.
That seems very precarious to me, I’d be constantly worried about nudging it and dropping the cups.
I’ve never watched Blade Runner, only this scene, but this scene is incredible. And this quote gives a really strong impression of a much larger world.

For 40k, I actually feel like “An open mind is like a fortress with its gates open and unbarred” is a cooler, if less iconic quote. It just conveys the ridiculous dystopia of the Imperium so well and so quickly.
But yeah gotta love the classic BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! YOUR CORPSE-EMPEROR WILL NOT SAVE YOU!
Yep, I got that mixed up, thanks.
TIL not everyone uses a duvet (also TIL that that thing’s called a duvet). That’s really surprising to me, so some people just use the blanket directly? What do you do when it gets dirty, they’re really hard to wash?
I thought this was going to be some math thing, turned out to be so much more straightforward.
That is some surprisingly good VFX for a meme. I wonder if the background is fully CGI or if they recreated it and cut.
Oh dear god-emperor that is bad. But also kinda makes sense for the situation? Measuring time in year-fractions instead of date would make a lot more sense on any planet other than Earth, and using local days would make things far too messy.
While this is funny, I’m pretty sure it isn’t real (or it was intentionally written poorly)- It doesn’t make any sense in Chinese either, and most people in Hong Kong know English at least somewhat.
Now you also need a creeper farm (or a generic hostile mob farm) to farm gun powder
Check. A basic mob farm was one of my earliest builds, though I’ll have to upgrade at some point.
a nether porthole shortcut to a desert to gather sand
Check. I live right next to a desert so I’ve got all the sand I need. But what do I need sand for, actually?
and a sugar cane farm.
Check, though that definitely needs upgrading.
Oh … and later on a phantom farm to gather Phantom membranes to endlessly repair and renew your elytra.
TIL phantom farms are a thing, but also I’ve already got mending so that isn’t much of a concern.
Yep, I actually got 3 in my trip to the End. The first one took me I’d guess about 40 minutes, then the next two took me no more than 10 minutes.
To be fair though most of that first 40 minutes was spent just walking to the first end city, after that I found 2 more end cities right next to the first one. Also all 3 end cities had ships, which I think is pretty lucky?
Yeah I think you’re spot on with this. What people consider monsters would vary depending on who they are, which is usually ignored in worlds where what is or isn’t a monster has some kind of mechanical significance (TTRPGs looking at you).
