@oldyzach Zug Zug

Yes. That music definitely made me want to play the game.

@ErySpider @ConsulofRome_ I mean, he was the SECOND founder of Rome after all. 😏

@ConsulofRome_ Si no recuerdo mal Tito Livio habia comparado tambien a Alejandro con Marco Furio Camilo. Que cosas

“Had Alexander the Great, after subjugating Asia, turned his attention to Europe, there are many who maintain that he would have met his match in Papirius.” - Livy on Papirius Cursor

@CatgirlsHQ @ConsulofRome_ All the treasures were East.

@ConsulofRome_ We will never know, but then again why did Alexander went so far east and only east? Did something scared him so much at the other side of the Adriatic sea?

@ZikadaPrime @NyteWolf22

Would you play a Chrono Trigger remake/remaster like this? 🤔

@SkaldRpg Brilliant game; very well balanced and fun. Nothing sweeter than conquering both the Incan and Aztec capitals.

Recognize this absolute gem? Probs my fave 4x from the mid 90s and a PERFECT game for the laptop while traveling🤩

@OptimoPrincipi Maybe the greatest surviving piece from antiquity. The statue is nice too.

Taking a moment to admire the 14-foot gilded bronze equestrian statue of the emperor Marcus Aurelius, born on this day in 121 AD. A truly miraculous survival from ancient Rome, the statue has been preserved inside the Capitoline Museums since 1981 with a reproduction taking its place outside in Piazza del Campidoglio. Catalogues of Rome’s standing monuments compiled in the age of Constantine suggest that at least 22 of these ‘great horses’ (equi magni) – some many times bigger than this statue of Marcus – could be seen around the ancient city by the 4th century. The equestrian statue is not only the last of these remaining, it is the only complete equestrian bronze statue of an emperor to survive from the entire Roman world, spared from being melted down due to the mistaken belief that it depicted Constantine, the first ruler to convert to Christianity.

@mcgillmd921 It was doomed either way because of geography.

Would Rome have been better off just letting Caesar remain dictator for life? Or was his assassination tragic, yet ultimately a net positive because it cleared the way for Augustus?🤔

@StarPlatinum_ Store your keys in a safety deposit box that can be accessed by your estate upon death.

- you get into crypto - you make money - you store everything yourself - nobody knows your keys - one day you’re gone - your wallet is still there - but no one can access it - your wealth doesn’t transfer - your money just stays locked forever

@gainzy222 I like him but he needs to stay in his lane. Not everything is a secret society CIA conspiracy going back to the Ancient Sumerians.

The thing about being retarded is that you cannot keep it under wraps forever, eventually it’ll be exposed

@oldyzach You already shared it

Almost, almost end! What’s your favourite video game from 2020?

@jd842842 @beaniemaxi @Timelord__X Little to show from any web3 collaborations. WoW, TSB, VF, PV, BAYC + Celebs, you name it. Dustbin of history now.

@beaniemaxi @Timelord__X Adidas + pixelvault = Max extraction possibly the worst thing to come out of crypto. There is literally nothing to show from this collaboration.

You either die a crypto founder or you live long enough to see yourself become an AI consultant.

@oldyzach You already shared it

What is your favorite video game from 2009?

@oldyzach You’ve already shared it.

What is your favorite video game from 2005?

@YourPrimePath there's definitely value in slowmaxxing

you need to be slowmaxxing. you need to be reading long, fat books. you need to be making 48-hour chocolate chip cookies. you need to spend hours watching wildlife, you need to spend 15+ min making your coffee. you need to breathe in and breathe out. you need to be slowwwwwwwwwww.

@London2000x @drinkonsaturday it's clearly staged

@drinkonsaturday 🥱

When they say, "your money is no good here," it's usually a great opportunity to thank the chef, right? Not if you have no manners or reasonable etiquette, especially with service workers. Never break the golden rule: don't FCK with people who handle your food. Trust us, you'll be far better off in the long run. That's a life lesson you can bank on.

@LiamT30EFC i myself am tired of aimless wandering in open world games. the thrill is gone. rdr2 was the apogee tho for sure.

Best part of the game, kids these days just have no patience and no attention span

@MugenLord What a wild time to be alive.

Bro, as someone who was gaming in the 90's, I had no idea that Crash Bandicoot was nearly impossible to run on the PS1. The developers found a way to get around the PS1 limitations, and the way they did it was sick! This is what optimization looks like, and somehow, most modern game developers can't seem to pull it off. youtube.com/shorts/LvQ2hYk…

@b00_plus Now they just look like low effort ai.

the portraits in the original baldur's gate had so much personality. just look at the expressions and the dramatic lighting

@QTRBlackGarrett They should interview the author on Between Two Ferns.

Holy fuck I’m only 5 chapters in. Biblical demons, the plague, disgraced knight with heart of gold deep deep down. Grounded Dark Fantasy to the max. I don’t even want to describe the first battle. Just read it

@bigsexyklaus @DavesEchoVerse @OHBINTB1 @CryptoMikli the onus is on you to prove your statement; deflecting with another question doesn't fix your conundrum of being able to prove the unprovable.

@DavesEchoVerse @OHBINTB1 @CryptoMikli Have you ever experienced reality without using your brain?

Bryan Johnson explains the most unimaginable experience he felt after trying 5-MeO-DMT “You basically experience raw consciousness and intelligence. When I say these words, multiply it by 1,000 and then move out into infinite depth, width, and dimensions. That gives you kind of a rough map of the size and space that you deal with, and it was incredibly hard because you get blasted into a space that is so foreign you don’t even know what’s happening” “You either panic because you feel like the gates of hell are going to open and the stream of existence is going to tear you to shreds and break your brain. In that moment, you have to decide, do I try to wrestle this and wait it out until it’s over, or do you just relent and say yes. You have to be in that moment and fully say yes” “You have to release all attachment, all preconditions, all desire. You have to release self, ego, control. You have to just relent entirely, and then it opens up this unimaginable bliss and euphoria”
