Finally managed to properly install Caesar III under #Linux, to run under the open source re-implementation of the gaming engine, #Augustus. It wasn't as straightforward under Linux due to case sensitivity on files, and a special tool to unarchive shielded .cab files, but it worked at the end thanks to the wiki. Bear in mind, the game requires the original artwork from 1998 (easily found online).

#0ad is possibly one of the most advanced #foss games. It's a multi-platform #RTS historical #game, and there's currently an appimage for #Linux users found at #github (in case #flatpak isn't to your liking).

Plays really smoothly, although it eats my 2015's #Macbook Air's battery (running Linux #Mint) for lunch. We're talking that it has about 30 minutes of overall #gameplay before I need to recharge. CPU utilization is at about 50-60%. @play0ad

What would it look like for our universities to be "radically abundant"?

What if they were noot governed by logics of scarcity and precarity, but instead were centered on conviviality and sufficiency? What would it look like if they were actually run democratically, and actively working towards dismantling the structures of power that fuel climate breakdown, genocide, fascism and war?

Most importantly, how do we get there?

Our new paper "Degrowth and decolonisation in academia: Intersecting strategies towards transformation" provides a contribution towards answering these questions.

We present a vision for an academic system centered on public provisioning and communal sharing, rather than the currently dominant state of artificial scarcity. We then make use of the “strategic canvas for degrowth,” developed by Ekaterina Chertkovskaya, as inspired by the work of Marxist sociologist Erik Olin Wright, to understand how power is today challenged within the university’s walls, and how transformation towards radically abundant alternatives can be enacted.

Have you worked with someone (who isn’t the CEO or senior-most leader) who is a lynchpin of how the organization’s work gets done?

They’re the go-to for big projects, the trusted advisor, the one who connects teams and keeps things moving—often without formal recognition and sometimes without even a leadership title.

Their title varies, but their roles are often multifaceted...

Can you please share your thoughts about:

🤔 What words would you use to describe that person or role?
🤔 What words do you think that person would use to describe their own role in the org?

Share thoughts (or stories) in the comments, please! I’m trying to diversify my understanding of these roles and your insights may be a missing piece of the puzzle!

#Plutarch #ParallelLives #FabiusMaximus 8/

He did not purpose to fight out the issue with him, but wished, having plenty of time, money, and men, to wear out and consume gradually his culminating vigour, his scanty resources, and his small army.

Therefore, always pitching his camp in hilly regions so as to be out of reach of the enemy's cavalry, he hung threateningly over them. If they sat still, he too kept quiet; but if they moved, he would fetch a circuit down from the heights and show himself just far enough away to avoid being forced to fight against his will, and yet near enough to make his very delays inspire the enemy with the fear that he was going to give battle at last.

:blahaj: Why Not Zoidberg? 🦑

I definitely prefer 1066 to 867 as start date in CK3. Mostly because 867 lets me grow too quickly, on average you have formed an empire within a century and then you just put down revolts until 1493 when the game ends.

But also because I'm really not interested in "the dark" (they weren't, really) ages on an historical level. I want my William, HRE and reconquista.
