Dan, this podcast: I like to prioritize damage upgrades over health

Dan, playing Yakuza 0: better spend all my money on 4 more pixels of health bar even though I never die

I realize it doesn't matter very much but Dan's obsession with the health upgrades over even looking at the other ones is making me a little crazy. It gives like 5 pixels more health and he's died what, once? twice maybe?

While I agree that the health upgrades are a huge waste, so are new moves that Dan will never execute.

he might do one by accident!

Dark Souls 3 not even mentioned in best music? I know there's a general bias against orchestral scores but come the hell on.

I've been thinking about sending some of the greatest chips in the world for a mailbag, now I'm definitely going to. I'll include a request to eat them as close as possible to a microphone, I know how much some people love that.

Book recommendations! I could go on forever but I'll stick with one fiction one nonfiction.

Seveneves by Neal Stephenson. Something cracks the moon into pieces, and life on Earth is doomed, so the only way to save our species is space. After so much Kerbal you will have an intimate understanding of the on-point descriptions of orbital dynamics. They say it's "diamond hard" scifi, although I think he spoke to a hundred astronauts, rocket scientists, etc... to nail that part down, then found one molecular biologist / geneticist who was drunk, but overall it's one of the best books I've ever read.

Salt: A World History by Mark Kurlansky. I tell everyone to read this book. It's super compelling. Until relatively recently, salt was much more difficult to produce, but is a dietary requirement, and was one of the first international commodities. Thousands of years ago China had the technology to pump salt brine from underground through bamboo pipes to be boiled down in huge clay vats. The word salary derives from the salt rations paid to Roman soldiers. Gandhi protested the colonial salt tax (and ban on Indians producing their own) by leading a march to the ocean and picking up a chunk of salt from the ground. The book contains dozens more of these stories.
