i don't consider myself terribly interested in mysticism and while i found Magee's book somewhat interesting i found allegations of Hegel's hermeticism sort of besides the point to Hegel's larger philosophical project and ambitions

Ah, I see. While I am not too familar with the field, maybe the work of Jon Stewart can give us some clues? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Stewart_(philosopher)

What Video Game Did I Play Yesterday?

miela583 3 years ago

I used NES Pinball as a test subject tonight, seeing how individual game pages might work as a way to improve my Game Index, kind of like a manually built, rudimentary tag system. I am not sure about it yet, but am going to try to transfer one game a day to this system.
