With the ubiquity of inflation and shrinkflation, why aren't there more boycotts? When will people say enough is enough?

  • Can you take that last part, put it to a cool font, add some vaporwave and a filter, and make it the stylings of an Cyberpunk 80s movie?

    With a bit of rewording, it would be rad for a pixel indie game or something. It goes hard.

    And its uncomfortable so I want it in a more palatable form lol

    • Is there a dedicated piracy site or any other place to get 3D paid stl files or discussion on 3D paid files

    Jump

  • I mean, I know you're looking for piracy sources, but the 3D printing sphere is pretty much full of tech hippies.

    This may go against the spirit of this server and all, but if you're just looking to print for personal use, there's a very real possibility that you can just ask.

    I've hit up a few people before, stating that I wanted to print their STLs for my own personal use and sometimes they said no, but more than half the time, they just let me have it.

    Usually something like:

    "Hey, your project looks really great! I've been on a bit of a tight budget lately, but I do have my old printer and some filament lying around- would it be possible to get a copy of your STL files pro bono?
    I would love to get my hands on it, and will definitely post a make to your page!"
    (It definitely helps if you have some quality finished product images, so you're kinda free advertising for them)

    I don't make the personal choice to pirate, (and I'm not here to judge) but I figured my kinda approach still may suit your needs.

  • Yes, with extra steps lol

    • The greatest insult of our time is to accuse someone of being an AI chatbot.

    Jump

  • Not totally related, but in the mid 2000s, I had thought that being made an NPC in a video game was a really kind honor- that someone probably really cared about you.
    (usually if they didn't, you'd get relegated to a humiliating gag or antagonist. Technically also NPCs, I guess, but not what you think of as "NPC")

    ...And then the internet went and turned NPC into an insult.

    Makes me feel sad for all those loving tributes and Make a Wish kids.

    • if you even care

  • And filter your water.
    And your dog's water.
    And your Car's water.
    And give your cat a big ass water dish. (cats can get kidney issues because they stop drinking due to whisker damage from small bowl rims)

    You're absolutely right! You don't want to fuck around with your kidneys! I'm not going to post the details here, but you should request an AMA from someone who works in Dialysis if you enjoy NSFL content.

  • I never got to play this character very long, but I had this idiot rich draconic bloodline Sorcerer whose parents had hidden the fact that they were a Tiefling from them.

    As far as they knew, they were a half-orc with a skin condition, born when their father was shamed and banished, and their mother was swept off their feet by a gallant orc of the hinterlands. (lol, no, the parents are evil AF demon worshippers spawning teiflings into the bloodline, and they're too dumb to realize it. No hot orc babydaddy to speak of)

    They cut off the tail and cauterized the horn buds really early, and basically the plan was to see if they discovered the Draconic Bloodline before or after getting hit by a strong enough healing spell to restore their demonic features.

    They probably wouldn't be able to understand the idea that they could be both part demon and part dragon, and part Good aligned and part Evil aligned creature, to boot. Comedy gold in the right party.

    • What adventure games do you recommend?

    Jump

  • The Frog Detective series is pleasant, light, and overall delightful. Feels like a slightly more grownup Humongous Games kinda title.

    And I do have to check- Did you play the Manhunter games?
    They're super overlooked for Sierra titles, (and some lists don't seem to mention them) but they're still authentic old school adventure game.
    Super cheezy though.

    • Smartphone Keyboard Information Bonanza: What's available and what's best for your needs

    Jump

  • I use Gboard with the one handed option always enabled, so I can keep my keyboard exactly where I want it on the screen.

    Some health issues make excessive keystrokes painful, and my phone is big enough already. I have it adjusted to about the keyboard size of a Galaxy S2 on screen keyboard, and to the right.

    I keep Hacker's Keyboard if I ever wind up playing something old school, though I usually wind up playing Pathos if I get an itch for NetHack on the go.

    If anyone has a good option for keyboards you can force to keep on top for Accessability/gaming purposes, though, let me know.
