If you can find an Ethiopian restaurant or grocery store or a nice spice store you can find some of these ingredients (mostly berbere spice blend or real nitter kibbeh which isn't vegan) otherwise you can follow the secondary recipes to make them from scratch. Apologies for the slightly orientalist language below, this recipe is from the forks over knives cookbook but trust me, it's bomb. This dish (misir wot) is traditionally vegetarian anyway so I don't think making it vegan compromises the flavor at all. They recommend frying the ingredients in water to keep it healthier but frying in cooking oil works fine too and is a bit less fiddly.

Ethiopian Lentil Stew (Serves "4", we usually double this recipe and add chopped onions. I'd keep the water and spices the same when doubling.) it also works great in a slow cooker.

THIS EXOTICALLY FLAVORFUL soup from the horn of Africa is made with a spice blend called berbere and the spiced, clarified butter known as Nitter Kibbeh. You can easily make your own Berbere S

It is designed to work with the plot die emoji from the Cosmere RPG Discord Server.

1. Riven (2024). This game fulfills a childhood fantasy of visiting one of my favorite games of all time for real (VR is the next best thing,) as well as being the culmination of a very long effort by fans to do a 3D remake known as the Starry Expanse Project, so this title has been one of my most anticipated for many years, and they reimagined things enough to keep them fresh without losing what made the original special. It didn't disappoint me and was worth the wait. Recommended if you enjoy Myst and Myst-likes.

This tool helps query your own GitHub repos to see which licenses you've used. It would be pretty easy to adapt this to query any user or organization's public repos, but I'll leave that as an exercise for the reader.

Open the GitHub GraphQL Explorer (or any GraphQL client) and run the provided query. If pageInfo.hasNextPage is true, use the provided cursor to query for the next page, see Using pagination in the GraphQL API for more info. Merging multiple pages for use by the JS collator script is also left as an exercise for the reader.

Then, run the JS code to collate the results, it's probably easiest to do in your browser's JS console but any JS REPL such as Node.JS will do.

In the 90's I was obsessed with the original Myst and Riven. I wanted nothing more than to visit them for real. This is as close as I am going to get to that, and I am very grateful for it.

I am several hours into the game at this time of writing. Cyan has done an amazing job getting a graphically demanding game to run decently well on Quest standalone (I am using a Quest 3.) I've noticed a few issues such as visible LOD mesh and particle effect pop-in, the water looks pretty bad compared to the PC version, and there's occasional stuttering when moving quickly, but nothing has really broken my immersion too badly. But the extreme draw distance with the level of detail they've achieved is incredible.

I think the CG humans are much improved over Myst (2021), they still look a bit videogame-y but so far have been good enough. It's a shame, but necessary, to lose the original FMV performances, and I think the new actors and mocap performance matching to original audio has worked pretty well, although I haven't
