YaYa’s Flam Broiled Chicken. It’s not good. There’s never anybody in the parking lot. But you’re telling me they could move to a bigger location? One that’s a converted bank?? Banks have vaults. For all the laundered money.

Right? The only difference here is that they fessed up.

For a long time, I thought it was Fedora Core 4. I did use that, but I recently found my old burned CDs of Mandrake 8.1. That really took me back. I might install it on a VM for some nostalgia.

I also have a Huion graphic tablet, and this makes me not want to use it now. Like it’s somehow contaminated with urethra.

I tried FreeCAD last week, and it was absolute trash. Extruding individual curves from a sketch as surfaces? Nah. Extruding multiple bodies from one sketch? Yes, but you can’t select them individually for subsequent operations. Are there synchronous modeling tools? I couldn’t find any. Rotation is terrible no matter which option I tried. If only I could get my SpacePilot Pro working with it. Can you even do any advanced surfacing? I could go on and on.

I was hoping for something akin to SolidWorks, which is kind of a second-teir modeling software in my eyes, but it was just a little better than AutoCAD. Maybe I’m just spoiled with NX. I just found it completely unusable.

I’ve been using Mint since November. Love it. It’s made using my PC new and fun again. There are only two things I cannot figure out yet, and that’s putting roms on my PS2 hard drive, and connecting my TI-86 calculator. Luckily, those are both things I can do on my XP machine.

Wow, that’s so terrible to hear. I was reading his Wikipedia, and he just has the absolute worst take on everything. He’s the opposite of everything i would have assumed of him. The fact that he lost $200K to a pyramid scheme and he was in Money Plane seem like just desserts.

All of those are true. But I still love it. Why? I like airships. And I like that I take my whole home with me as I explore, and don’t have to travel back to a fixed point to store my treasures. Is it derivative? Yes. Is it repetitive? Yes. Does it tick all the boxes for me to relax for a couple hours at night? Absolutely.

Yeah, you’re right it is pretty linear. Astroneer is fantastic regarding freedom, I totally agree. And I love that it doesn’t have the food and water requirements, just air. That really lets you focus more on the exploration. Haven’t played the other two you mentioned. I’d definitely say Forever Skies is a casual game. If I weren’t playing that at night, I’d probably be playing Boggle Plus or Dr. Mario on the GameBoy. If I had the time (not at 11pm) to really get into a game where I cared about story or interesting mechanics, I would be playing something better. I could finally finish F.E.A.R., after 20 years. Or start MechWarrior 5.

I’m so sorry to hear this! Please don’t delete your posts. I’ve enjoyed them. I’m really sorry the vibe changed so much for you. All I can say is that after 10 years on Reddit and two on here, here is still way better.

Where would you go after this? The only other alternative I can imagine is old-school forums.

I’ll be honest and admit that I’ve done that once or twice. It was a Friday, and I went to lunch with a coworker at a pub nearby. He got a lunch beer, so I decided to get a lunch beer. Saw they had Dragonmead Final Absolution on tap, which is one of my favorite beers of all time. Usually, you get it in like, 10oz glasses, its 10% ABV. But the waitress asked if I wanted a short or a tall! I don’t think she was familiar with it. I couldn’t pass up an opportunity like that, so I got a tall. Nursed it throughout lunch. After we paid the bill, I pounded the rest of the 20oz glass. Got back to work, and started feeling it as soon as I put the car in park. It was all I could do not to take a George Costanza style desk nap. Nothing productive was done the rest of the afternoon.

I had a coworker at a different job come to a 1pm meeting and sit next to me, completely reeking of booze. He tried to contribute something, and when he got up to point at something he just stumbled and fell right into the projector screen then onto the floor. My boss asked me later if I noticed anything off about him in there, and I just said it looked like he lost his balance pretty bad, hope he’s OK. Pretty sure he was going through some personal issues at the time, because I never saw him do anything like that again.

Hulu uses what I’m pretty sure was the ending credit song in the intro. Probably to avoid Teardrop royalties or something. I hate it so much, I didn’t finish the series last time I tried to watch it.

I love it. I only have 32 hours into it so far, but I keep coming back to it more and more. Really, just because it’s so chill. The survival aspect of it is so easy. Catch some fat dust moths, cook, and freeze. Tanks of water ready to be purified at any time. So really, it’s just a chill game where you float around and collect stuff to build a better ship. I play it for acouple hours late at night after my wife and kid are asleep to unwind. It’s not a game that takes a lot of skill or concentration, it’s just relaxing. And when I’m in my glass walled bedroom, ship swaying back and forth in a storm, I’d say it’s downright cozy. Float around, find blueprints for a new chair or lamp, call it a night.

$602.41 for 50 games in 18.4 years. Cost at today’s prices: $698. I’d say that’s a win.

2,095 hours. 72% of games played. Guess I need to get to work.

I wish I could track my pre-steam numbers. Id be interested to see how much time I put into Mechwarrior 3, or Rollercoaster Tycoon, or Unreal Tournament.
