tealdeer takes up 3.7MB on my system. It's a rust implementation of tldr - simplified man pages with practical examples. If I want to do some common thing with a program I don't use very often, chances are I can type (e.g.) tldr kill and it'll tell me what I need to know.

Super excited about this as the game runs like shit on my laptop and there's a long running issue of fortresses becoming unplayable at high populations. Anyone tried it out?

Plenty of corrupt conduct doesn't quite meet the criminal standard. It's one reason bodies like ICAC exist. In this instance, it seems like Berejiklian should have declared her conflict and recused herself from dealing with these grants. But did her relationship actually change how she acted on them? That's harder to prove even if it was the case.

Edit: this page has info on the elements that constitute criminal misconduct

Edit2: oh yeah, ICAC also has coercive powers that allow it to get evidence that would be inadmissible in court. There's probably a bunch of that here.

Nearly done with Book of the Short Sun! Just started the last book in it. I really like the two-timeline structure of it, though I may be one of the minority who prefers Long Sun. It's more...idk, cosy. I like the religious themes.

I want to mention something else but not sure how to do spoilers here

Thanks mate. When you say nation building, what sort of things were they trying to do?

Man I'm sad we don't have an /r/roguelikes here. Discussion of the genre has been clobbered by the much more popular roguelites and it was nice to have a forum focused on traditional roguelikes. There's a discord but it's not the same.

Some lesser known ones that I think are quite cool:

Shadow of the Wyrm, open world fantasy with a nice vibe.

Dawn of the Mexica, quite brutal lethal combat with an uncommon setting.

Forays into Norrendrin, traditional dungeon crawler setting with distilled gameplay systems. Brogue-adjacent.

The Ground Gives Way, also a traditional dungeon crawler but with a really interesting fatigue-based equipment system and non lethal combat options. Cool item effects and stuff.

Lost Flame, if dark souls was a roguelike. Quite involved combat where attacks are telegraphed and you can dodge them, use abilities for movement etc. Great atmosphere.
