Hey look my home state made it to the news again! Amazing, it's even worse than usual!

That's just the weave, baby, and that intern was a socialist anyway

And people not discussing is better how?

I've managed to hold on to my computer games and even acquired my dad's collection. GI Joes all went to my niblings though because I didn't have as much sentimental value for them, same with my Legos and bionicles save for a handful. My pokemon collection recently resurfaced though and my mom handed those off I was pretty excited about that

You all save me from deciding between feeling bad about food waste or feeling bad about eating waste food. My roommate has the same opinion so they get all the ends and we both win

My mom has kept everything from my childhood I mean everything. For a few years she was trying to pass some of it off to me and I kept having to turn down a lot of stuff, it made her feel bad. One day I finally managed to have a proper conversation about it with her. I don't remember most of my childhood and things like second grade report cards don't have any context because of it. Those are her memories of me not my memories of me. She finally understood after that and now she keeps what she can and doesn't feel bad about "robbing" me of anything when she does get rid of stuff. Some heirlooms I've been asked about and many of those I accept, or in the case of one larger one I've accepted it "if I ever live somewhere that can fit it"

Defining ownership as "can I sell this" is ridiculous

My marriage is up after exactly 7 years. Granted we were together for more like 11-12, but the marriage 7

Well I'm a game dev myself and drm is bullshit. Denuvo can get fucked

I helped a good friend quit smoking by going into detail about nicotine poisoning, talking about how child labor is used to farm tobacco, and that nicotine is water soluble and farmers can get exposed easily. Every time I'd catch them smoking I'd ask him what his child kill count was lately

In my experience learning harmonica is even more wild for this kind of cross-disciplinary skill

Nevermind Maillard a real grilled cheese is where you get distracted and burn the hell out of one side then undercook the second side because of you keep heating it all the cheese would ooze out the sides and burn in the pan

Like a lot of people, Factorio and Satisfactory. Been also playing a bit of Binding of Isaac and DRG. Also watching a friend play Morrowind because I love that game souch

Frostpunk has such weird balance. I found it to be an extremely difficult game until a few core loops clicked. Then it was suddenly completely trivial and I lost interest

A VR mech game could be so baller. Also a remake of Black and White would work well. But generally yeah it's just not a great medium for most games and while we have a lot of promising hardware we're struggling to find ways to use it intuitively

I think after the bubble breaks it does down a bit well see some groups take their time to build really functional stuff. We don't have good standards on how to interact in VR and it shows. We don't have enough data on how to make people less motion sick. Basically the hardware is there but the software isn't and that'll take more time than we've been giving it, imo

Realistically though I think the fundamental limits on how you can interact in VR means while there may be a strong niche market, I don't expect it to be a mainstream thing. Even if the prices drop a lot and the headsets get smaller there's still a lot working against them

You cursed them shouldn't have broken your streak

Etsy has some, not a ton though. Here's one: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1485832949/minecraft-chest-storage-box-3d-print

You possibly still can! There are various guides here's one I found https://www.bwgame.net/threads/running-black-white-on-windows-10.7916/

You may need to search around for one that works for you because it can be fiddly to get running but it's doable

Hey I clean mine! Uh, sometimes...

I'm reminded of the game Black and White where you have an avatar/pet that you can train to behave in certain ways. You can do positive reinforcement like giving scritches and whatnot when they do something you want, or negative reinforcement which is effectively a "backhanding the shit out of an anthropomorphic pet" simulator. If they are holding something and you rub their belly they will eat what they're holding. To train mine not to eat villagers I would hand them one, rub it's belly, wait for the villager to be eaten, then beat them to a pulp. Usually once was enough but sometimes they'd need a second round
