It makes me start looking for the next thing. Got my jellyfin, got my pi hole, my retro console and just recently home assistant set up. (Just a few more buts to add to that). Next i think i am going to look into self hosting a cloud storage solution. Like google drive/photos etc. Would be nice to make my own backups and have them offline

Oh! I really enjoyed Hollow Knight. I found that although i sucked at it going in and struggled so much with even the first boss, once i got my head around it it was one of the most rewarding games i have ever played. Trying over and over to beat a tough boss and eventually winning felt great.

I got Silksong recently and just beat act 1. Incidentally the movement controls in Silksong are VASTLY superior to Hollow Knight. You might even enjoy it.

I volunteer to go undercover in an attempt to sabotage it.

I love that they had the heatsink and fan, they just didnt know where it went and actually mounted it to the case. It wasnt just that they didnt have one.

I prefer a custom built PC. What does that make me on the US political spectrum?

MUSK

Did you forget about that dementia ridden, sociopathic, egomaniacal moron in the whitehouse? Man would fire a nuke by accident, let alone if someone had the audacity to criticize him in any way.

I couldn’t get into predecessor, the matches take too long and the grind for coins to get new characters is slow. As MOBAs go its not bad. But i wouldn’t say great. And i definitely enjoy ARC more.

Baldurs gate 3 is a given. Best game of the last 5 to 10 years for me. Hands down.

Skyrim is boring as hell. It was marvellous when it came out, but its been released so many times and feels too clunky theses days.

Cant comment on dark souls, those games are too hard for me.

Didnt know runescape dragonwilds was a thing but after a quick google i am very interested. :)

Not played killing floor or first descent so can’t comment.

Imho ARC is certainly not a masterpiece but i do feel like a lot of what you dislike about is comes down to your personal bad luck and experience. I have had a very different experience with it, where the PVE has been much more prevalent that the PVP. I dont really follow the story, i just like sneaking around and killing the ARC. I play duos with a few different friends and enjoy the occasional brush with a hostile player. For me it really is occasional. I would say 10% of my matches i get someone shooting at me. And only about half of those end with me dead.

But i fully accept that the same applies to me. My experience of the game is not yours. So i appreciate that my personal view doesn’t impact yours.

When i was a kid me and my 4 siblings would often have to take it in turns to play single or 2 player games. In the mean time if you weren’t playing you would watch the others play. It was exciting rooting for one player or another, it was great when something funny happened, or when someone did something amazing, whether on purpose or by accident whilst button mashing. Even single player adventure or rpg games were fun to watch. It was kind of like watching a movie. You were there for the fun bits, the exciting bits, the sad bits, the shocking bits. Even watching, you are part of it.

Admittedly, despite this, i initially didn’t find this sort of content appealing as i thought there would be something different with me not being in the room and it not being my siblings. But after watching a streamer who makes other, non-game content do a few multiplayer games with other people that appear on his stream i found that they can be just as fun to watch. You still get a bit of that feeling and its still enjoyable. Especially if you are watching live and can take part in the chat. The rest of chat are substitutes for my siblings and the streamer and his buddies are all funny and the camaraderie is very familiar.

All in all i would say, you might be suprised if you gave it a go.

This is kind of what its like for me. White onions, same as you, they need to be basically liquid/mush before i can eat them.

Red onions however are the devil. I can’t stand them in any form.

For me its an issue of texture, i hate how it feels to eat onions and peppers. I have been physically sick (vomited) because i bit into a bit of onion/pepper i didnt know was in my food. My body just rejects them.

White onion= flavour good, texture bad (unless mush) Red onion= flavour bad, texture bad Pepper=flavour overpowering and i am never sure if i like it or not, texture bad.

Nah, they were dumb enough to lose them, those bananas are fair game.

Is skyrim the new doom?

🤣🤣🤣

Ads are way past the point of pissing me off so much that i just block my ears and close my eyes until they go away.

Its fucking disrespectful to expect people to just be ok with having that shit shoveled into their eye sockets.

Amazon is a tool to me to get the things i want based on need for things that i am doing or to replace things that are broken. I am not window shopping there. I am not browsing things. I know what i need. I find the cheapest one with the highest rating and buy it.

Ahh but if you double 12 and add 1 you get 25

Yeah… he is a good politician if your bar is “can speak” “has fingers” “is less than 90% brain dead” and “voted most likely to be leader of a cult in his high school yearbook”

Its not your fault my country is run by a steaming pile of starmer shit.

Thanks for the alternative link.

Damn it, 2nd time this week. Vpn doesnt fix it either. Is lemmy reporting my location from my user account. Can i change region?

Sadly i guess it could happen to GOG too. I mean, anything you have already bought is safe but someone could step in and change the business model and end such a great thing.
