Control is on my backlog list. Thanks for the writeup. Now I know what to expect.

Using cheats for 1 player offline games is 100% OK in my book. I am an adult with so much responsabilties and little time to game. Sitting for 2 hours frustrated on something and not progressing is just not my idea of fun. Nudging yourself through with the help of cheats, easy mode or anything else is totally valid.

I have done this with a few games. Disgaea games come to mind... I know most of the enjoyment of those games comes from the grind to level up and get stronger to then grind some more... But I just couldn't make myself fight the same level 25 times to earn enough XP to upgrade so I memory edited the values just enough to simulate me grinding for 2 hours in 5 minutes. Not enough to break the game but enough to get me through the grindy parts.

And any offline 1 player game that tries that shit will get memory edited right away.

Of course I will always try to do it the intended way, as long as it's not annoying to me.

I don't believe this is a US problem. Dates do match with all the Trump nonsense but it happened pretty much worldwide. Look at UK, Australia, Philippines, Brazil, Mexico. All of them had the same divide in society with politics at the center. I think it's social media and the attention-hungry algorithms that do not care about the side effects. That is what is pulling people apart. Spending hours a day in an indoctrination environment just because 'clicks and ads and $$'. Laws to prevent this are waaaay too late. Damage is done. And what horrible damage these things did... What horrible damage these people did... And are still doing unchecked.

Plus he dropped me off where he wanted!

Demon Souls. Gadamn it's good...

My dude! Thanks for sharing all of these. I don't have a particular need and am able to buy myself games so I will leave for others who may not be as lucky as I am. But thanks for doing this!

Happy holidays!!!

Ok. This one I like. I felt the cozy scene. This is what art is about. Connecting to what you are seeing in a level that only you understand. That is why art is subjective. Only you know what makes you tick.

We should all strive for this level of rigor when understanding sources of articles online.

The world would be so much better.

That scene actually looks very real.

Here is a video on how they made it

Mate. Trusting a company not to shaft you when you have no alternatives is never a good idea. It is actually really bad.

Companies do not act towards the benefit of the customer. It is always towards a better bottom line, and those decisions many times do not have your best interest at heart. If you have no choices, the companies have no incentive to make your experience any better. (see Internet Explorer). Competition is always a good thing. It forces companies to be better. The key word there is forces because they will not do it on their own.

OMG. I got 8.95% for a 25yr mortgage and it was an awesome deal. Market was about 13.5%. Your numbers are really just free money from where am standing.

That was more than 1 granade. Dude just tossed them casually. What needs to happen to people to act this way???

You the man (or woman or whatever)!!!

So I used bings chat bot to summarize the article to the same length as the other bot and this is the result (you be the judge) :

!Carlos Vasquez, also known as Rattlehead, is a professional gamer who relies on sound to play Mortal Kombat. Carlos, who is completely blind, started playing video games at the age of six in 1992. He was diagnosed with a type of glaucoma when he was 11, which slowly took away his sight. Carlos relies on hearing the specific sounds of the characters to make his attacking and defensive moves. He is able to pick up on the distinct sounds of the characters and use them to his advantage. Carlos found that most mainstream games were almost impossible to play without gaming accessibility features. Back in his 20s, Carlos was able to play some fighting games, and in particular Mortal Kombat, because he was able to pick up on the distinct sounds. For example, he recognised that the character who started on the right side of the screen would grunt at a slightly higher pitch than the one on the left. This allowed him to work out which character he was playing¹.

Absolutely right. I would not judge you if I saw you at the supermarket. But this dude is the face of a fashion and beauty brand. They are pushing this body type (rarely occurs naturally in healthy folks like you) and mostly occurs on people with health problems. In a way they are pushing a non healthy image to many people that are not like you. I would even dare to say you are a very minuscule porcentage of people with this body type that are 100% healthy so this is being pushed to folks that have lovehandles and now they hate themselves.

Yes indeed. My cat also reacts to catnip. It's adorable.

You cannot tell me that dude (duddette?) doesn't have an eating disorder. That looks sickly and horrible.

I read the replies and they were all smartass funny comments but there was no real answer or discussion so I decided to start one.

Lol. Accurate.

I just finished the game. It was a lot of fun. I found it a little slow at times and some QOL stuff might make it even better but it is still a great game.

Buy her a spa day or coupon with a massage or something nice that she likes and include the hair removal option as extra.

Once done make sure you let her know how much you liked the shaved areas. Hopefully she will catch on and continue doing it herself. Otherwise repeat the process. There are even some places where you can buy monthly subscriptions she can go to.

Avoid confronting her on this. Not worth it and you could hurt her feelings. Of course it depends on your relationship with her. If both of you feel comfortable talking and discussing such topics then go ahead.
