I could still understand 1300, and then 1200 was almost impenetrable and I could only get some glimpses of the plot ^^

@LucasWerkmeister oh that's great!
yeah for me was quite comfortable back to 1500 (the range we read stuff for high school within)
1400 and 1300 were a little slower going but felt clear
1200 might as well be swedish, i could grok bits of words and structures i knew but couldn't quite understand the text
1100 and 1000 might as well be old norse ;)

Almost a third of 2026 Oscar-nominated films acknowledge climate change
To pass the ‘climate reality check,’ a movie must depict climate change in some way, and a character in the story must recognize it

@staringatclouds @lowqualityfacts Geese don’t actually honk. Rather they are being constantly censored.

Just played the arcade version of Exerion.
This game was ahead of its time. Released in 1983, it was doing parallax backgrounds which gave it a 3D effect. And this makes a big difference for a game that’s pretty much like Space Invaders and Galaga.
Which is why home conversions fared poorly. You do not want to play the Famicom or MSX versions of Exerion because they fare very poorly.
