"Upvote" history on Lemmy?

There isn't. I think while doable, it'd be technically challenging to track that kind of activity across the Fediverse (how does instance A track upvotes done by user accounts on instance B and relay that stat back to instance A, at what frequency, etc). Plus, I like the idea of not having a "karma score" (or whatever you wanna call it) to chase, which that type of tracking would enable.

So he's calling himself a king now, eh?

The thought is that the democrats lost the last election because they focused on identity politics rather than more general concerns. Whether that is true or not, the chief point of this post is not congestion fees, it’s that the president called himself “King”.

Aspects... can only be used one time?

You’ve got it. The aspects you get from completing dungeons you unlock forever, but the stat rolls are the lowest they can be. The aspects you extract from an item match the stat on that item, but are one time use. So for example, if the aspect can give +10-20% Damage to x skill, the dungeon perma-unlock will always give you the 10%, and the aspect you extract from an item will give you exactly what was on the item. So what you typically do is look for “max rolled” aspects and extract those.

Anyone here actually play Star Citizen?

I play on occasion, yes. I bought in relatively recently, and despite its issues I still find it fun. I love the idea of having my own ship(s) that I can fly to and fro, land on planets, disembark, go explore, etc. It does sort of still feel like a connected system of tech demos at times, but the overall simulation of being a spaceship owner is something I haven't been able to find in any other game. Maybe the upcoming Starfield will come close - we'll see - but even then, the persistent online world is a big part of that feeling.
