“세 마리의 형제 새가 있었소. 잉크를 마시는 새, 차를 마시는 새, 술을 마시는 새. 잉크를 마시는 새는 남의 잉크도 가져다 마셨고, 차를 마시는 새는 수영장에 찻잎을 던졌으며, 술을 마시는 새는 남은 술이 있어도 술을 긁어모았소. 그리고…”
“그리고?”
“셋 다 파산했소.”

I've been taking a bit of time away from all the noise lately, but there's also still good stuff happening. 🙂 As of today, my first journal paper is out:

fietkau.science/body_tracking_

It's essentially a project report covering much of my work from 2021 to 2024. Took us (me and co-authors Jan and @SDSusanne Draheim) a while to finish.

A funny feeling, publishing an academic article without any auxiliary media at all. No video, no presentation slides, not even a poster.

UNRWA reported that Israeli forces have continued targeting camps in Jenin, Tulkarm, and Nur Shams.

It added that around 32,000 Palestinians in the West Bank remain forcibly displaced following Israeli military operations, including the renewed order against Tulkarm Camp under operation ‘Iron Wall’ until January 2026.

Since October 2023, more than 1,000 Palestinians, including over 200 children, have been killed in the West Bank and Eastern areas of Jerusalem.

When I pick up RPG rules the thing that stands out to me is lists: lists of character classes, skills, magic items, spells, monsters and so on. So when looking for precursors its worth checking out lists as well as fiction and games.

I picked this book up on eBay. Published in 1967. I find it hard to believe that D&D wasn't influenced by this even though Gygax explicitly denies having read it. (It was republished under a different name and I bet he knew that version.)

Every single animal in the Animal section is in the Monster Manual 1e. Even the difference in speed between the two camels is explicitly mentioned. And why did the Monster Manual have entries for both Mammoths and Mastodons?

Anyway, this is a fun genre of book.
