Assorted Links to Sites I Like

• The Super Dimension Fortress — the (mostly) free public access UNIX system on which this site is hosted
• NetHack — The greatest computer game of all time. You are required to play it. Starting now.
• Kingdom of Loathing — a very good & addictive browser-based MMORPG mockery filled with obscure pop-culture references, stick figures, and an active & friendly community. I used to play it, but Real Life got in the way for far too long, my account got deleted for inactivity, and I haven't felt like creating a new account since. Stupid Real Life.
• Cities — like Kingdom of Loathing, but with a much lower-tech interface, less pervasive pop-culture references, exponentially more bad puns, and less of an overall goal to the game. On the plus side, they won't delete your account for inactivity.
• The Order of the Stick — the best of the many D&D parody webcomics in existence
• Gunnerkrigg Court — a fantasy/sci-fi webcomic about an unflappable girl in a boarding school full of robots, ghosts, demon-possessed toy wolves, mad scientists, and a cursed teapot
• Dinosaur Comics — If you haven't heard of this webcomic, you need to spend more time on the internet.
• The Internet Oracle — A part of internet history, the Internet Oracle is a source of infinite wisdom & knowledge in which the participants answer each other's stupid (or clever) questions with clever (or stupid) answers. Although its popularity has waned in recent years, the Oracle continues to endure as a renowned source of collaborative humor & creativity. Just don't ask about the w**dch*cks.
• Lojban.org — the official website of Lojban, an artificial language designed with the goals of being completely logical, syntactically unambiguous, & culturally neutral. If you learn it, people will think you're even more of a nerd, and do ka'e bacru je ciska secau lonu lo prenu cu djuno lo du'u do cusku makau.
• El Goonish Shive — a very well-written sci-fi/fantasy webcomic involving high school, aliens, magic, lesbians, goo, shapeshifting, mysterious shadow beings, alien technology-induced gender swapping, evil overlords, long-running unsolved mysteries, squirrels, magical nose beepage, and a demonic duck of some sort.
