5·2 days agoIf I’d known this, I’d have put it in my review! Thanks for sharing!!!
Just to be clear, this is basically a guess but feel free to add it if you want, if I am right I didn’t come up with it, it was just lost in translation.
True, I recommend an xbox x/s controller and this cheap but great mount the power a moga clip 2.
$10 clip + a used xbox controller + your phone and you have a gyro capable (your phone) mobile gaming system with probably the best gamepad ever.
I don’t think this takes the place of a gadget like the Brick Hammer but I do HEAVILY recommend going this route first as you likely already have an adequate phone and xbox controllers are cheap and plentiful on the used market (and their only real achilles heel is they don’t have gyro… which your phone solves).
note this clip uses the model 1914 xbox controller to be precise, xbox controller names are so stupid… but also this clip is $10, who cares, fold some post-it notes/cardstock up a bunch and jam em in there and you can make a different controller work if it is a similar shape and size

A stonemason’s hammer, also known as a brick hammer, has one flat traditional face and a short or long chisel-shaped blade.[1] It can thus be used to chip off edges or small pieces of stone, cut brick or a concrete masonry unit, without using a separate chisel. The chisel blade can also be used to rapidly cut bricks or cinder blocks. This type of hammer is also used by geologists when collecting rock and mineral samples and is one of several types of geologist’s hammer.

They named it after an Estwing! Badass.
I think the name might have to do with the idea of a “traditional face married to a cutting edge” which is actually pretty clever.
What You See Is What You Get we mumble to ourselves, a mantra we remember the words to but have forgotten the meaning of.
3·2 days agoIn the end we all have a point
I think the simplest way to explain it is the way I see it liberalism has been operating at least for as long I have been alive on a sort of dead reckoning because it has no functioning moral compass.
Maybe it never did, I don’t know we can have a lot of debates over that and one up one another with how cynical we are about it but the point is that it is indisputable that for the last several decades liberalism has been operating on a sort of dead reckoning where whether something is acceptable or not purely has to do with how normalized it has been by the pre-existing power structure and status quo. All navigation is dependent upon an established record and each further advancement is charted only within the context of previous movements.
Conservatives shot the compass a long time ago and believe compasses are too woke to use by the way in case anyone gets confused about what side I am on here.
The difference I see with “progressives” and what I would call a genuine leftist is at least the attempt to construct a somewhat consistent moral compass and build coalitions based on a shared sense of a moral compass that is RATIONALLY connected to reality through science, healthcare and history.
Someone like Joe Biden spent his whole entire career sticking his finger into the wind and attempting to chart the center of balance in public opinion, a chameleon by design to the trends and fervors of the day whether that be draconian drug policy draconian housing policy draconian crime policy…
On the other hand Bernie Sanders has been saying the same damn thing his whole career, his politics have always been an extension of his moral compass even when they weren’t considered popular by mainstream political media.
This isn’t to say Bernie Sanders is perfect or some shining example but there is an undeniably fundamental difference in political ideology between Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden even though they come from roughly similar political eras and are both irrevocably products of the system that brought us to this breaking point. They come from different genetic lineages of political ideology, and in my opinion Joe Biden’s one can’t die off quick enough.
Another way to frame it… Liberals see the behavior of Conservatives as unacceptable because they have no regard for decorum and established norms, whereas Progressives and Leftists see the behavior of Conservatives as unacceptable because it is hateful, exclusionary and morally rephrensible but take no issue with the idea of transgressing social norms.
If one single thing can be have said to have destroyed liberalism’s moral compass (or at least doomed it to a slow death) it is The Paradox Of Tolerance which liberalism utterly fails to grapple meaningfully with on a philosophical level and on a practical policy level.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance
When you bring up the Paradox Of Tolerance to a liberal they tend to go “oh, interesting I hadn’t heard of that”. When you bring up the Paradox Of Tolerance to a leftist or progressive they tend to go “YUP”.
The gameplay sucked but what makes Morrowind a far superior game to Skyrim and Oblivion is Morrowind is weird.
Bethesda is only capable of making boring big budget fantasy epic setpieces these days, gone is the feeling of going into a random shop and reading a random book, gone is the feeling of “what the hell is over the next hill!?”.
You always know what you are going to get with Bethesda, they won’t take ANY risks. Bethesda will never again present a vision of fantasy that doesn’t simply meet the expectations of well worn fantasy tropes, as far as they are concerned that would be bad for business to do otherwise.
If you showed me of a picture of dragon from Skyrim, a dragon from Harry Potter and a dragon from Lord Of The Rings I don’t think I could tell them apart, the same cannot be said for almost any aspect of Morrowind down to basic things like the architecture of its buildings.

56·9 days agoLol nope, out of principle I will never pay for this even if I didn’t already hate Google.
It feels so condescending to the user, so unconcerned with their agency that I could never bring myself to support this choice with even a tiny amount of money.

Not really though I get how the game seems like it might be like that, in fact what I like about Farm Together 1 and 2 is that they are very focused on the actual moment to moment process of a running an arcadey farm. It is almost like a realtime boardgame or simple economy simulator, which makes the core gameplay loop immediately salient to anybody. You can pick up a controller, jump in and start helping out on the farm, it is a very simple, relaxed and rewarding gameplay loop and it makes the perfect co-op game because of it. There aren’t long cutscenes and lots of stuff and context you have to explain, it is a pick up and play experience.
It isn’t a shallow game either, while the game by no means “hard” in the sense that there aren’t really fail states, figuring out how to create an economy with your farm is a really interesting challenge and the wide variety of unlocks encourage and reward strategizing. The graphics are deceptive, there is a genuine engine building game at the heart of Farm Together 2.
Will you die already Ubisoft!??!?!
I don’t wish for game developers at Ubisoft to lose their jobs, I want them to be employed somewhere that doesn’t torpedo the end product of their talent.
Farm Together 2 is AWESOME

The graphics are nice but don’t make the game stand out which is a minor shame since this is by far my favorite “build a farm” type game.
Splitscreen co-op and multiplayer is a blast and the game flow is very chill but rewarding.

Dumbasses, that is why they chose a snake as their symbol, to remind each other to always train on jaw flexibility every time they eat precisely so this wouldn’t happen.

Also sucking dick is great, don’t insult such a giving act by associating it with those who never give.
