  • Dawncaster - a portrait mode rogue deckbuilder. It’s gorgeous and fun and actively developed - all new card expansions are free and the release cycle alternate them with paid expansions that give you new possible harder bosses (or different card art etc). So far we have 2300 cards, extremely well received visual impairment support (honestly the only game I know of that have good blind support), and over 700k words of text (for story, events, mechanics etc).

    Overall I find the price model very fair - kinda like Path of Exile model?



  • Depending on the city in Poland they might also be either painted in pastel colors or there might be murals on them.

    Example:

    And the wide green corridors between them were a constant feature as far as I know (at least I don’t remember NOT seeing wide grass + trees + some flowers corridors between 'em).

    I do agree that Czechs picked better colors for it and keeps them fresher.



  • I’m from Poland.

    I’m talking Soviet-style, grey concrete commieblocks

    So the commieblocks are always:

    • few minutes walk from school, kindergarten, grocery, doctor’s office, post, dentist and bus stops
    • sane distance from another block
    • either surrounded by good greenery, or next to a park
    • surprisingly good quality
    • small elevator
    • little parking spaces

    Vs “modern” blocks:

    • large elevator
    • the blocks are so close, if you open your window you could pee in the neighbours coffee cup
    • usually surrounded by pavement, cement, or car parking
    • better at noise reduction
    • you’re more likely to need a car to go to doctor’s office or drop your kids off, or go to the grocer.

    To me the ideal is the commie era urban planning with modern techniques, but that’s uncommon.


  • The article you linked says

    Göring had noted the swastika during his stay in Sweden and at von Rosens’ castle (forged into a metal piece at the fireplace). However, the swastika of the German Nazi party had been adopted already in 1920, two years before Göring met Adolf Hitler.

    Seems like a case of multiple shitheads liking the same symbol independently?
