My first Fallout game was Fallout 3 but I don't know why I didn't get into the series earlier. I wasn't really aware of it despite the fact that it was a computer rpg about a 50s-flavored nuclear armageddon. It seems like it should have been my jam! My first awareness of it was when I independently coined the name while re-theming my diaryland in 2000 and being annoyed by the name collision. I prob assumed it was a 3D action/fps game and so something I didn't wanna play and couldn't run anyway.

I've been watching a lot of Tim Cain's videos about his time in the game industry. They're really interesting and entertaining. This one is about how they settled on the name Fallout. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBptoe19IcY

You know, it's been ages since I complained about Rust compile times, even internally to myself while watching a large project build.
Kudos to the peeps who worked on compile times steadily through the years!
I say this out loud randomly because sometimes the only thanks people get for work like this is silence where there used to be grumbling.
