That would imply that Lluis Abadias would play anything not reptilian

And if you know of them, that simply won't do

Denver to St Louis through KS and MI is up there

Doesn't help that getting from West to East on i70 through Kansas City is a nightmare after driving that long.

Spoiler: i70 doesn't just run through the city like one would think.

Chicago Style Hot Dogs are famous and super tasty

10/10, definitely try one if you get the chance.

Ah yes, COVID, the most immediate threat to global commerce and geopolitical stability on September 10, 2001

Nothing in the right quantity, I use it in my own cooking when I need more umami in a dish.

There are old studies out there that said it was a problem ingredient (hence "no MSG" labels all over different foods), but those have been largely debunked due to racial bias.

In excess, the MSG flavor tends to linger, which can be annoying sometimes.

Mmm MSG fries

(Don't get me wrong I like them too but let's be honest here, they almost have as much MSG as KFC fries)

Those are Animal Style fries

It definitely improves them, but not by much

Tossed $6 your way on Buy Me A Coffee yesterday!

Excited to get into the beta

Old School RuneScape is alive and well, we got a new boss yesterday, and we've been getting drip-fed content all year this year.

This is actually an insane take

Furries at large don't care about the e2ee or security features

They care that:

1. their friends are the platform

2. custom stickers of their fursonas are easy to make and import

That's basically it. Telegram has become entirely ubiquitous in the fandom. No one group/ideology claims it as their own.

Sincerely,

a progressive leftist furry who uses TG

The furry community is in absolute shambles

Valid, I'm just not a fan of them personally

Too bad fresca uses artificial sweeteners

I used to like the old fresca, too

"learned some things like Linux, command line, docker, and networking/pfsense" "I don't consider myself technical"

Don't sell yourself short, I work in IT and have colleagues on our helpdesk who would struggle endlessly with those concepts.

I hereby dub you a tech person, like it or not, those skills can and do pay the bills.

Sagrada is a neat game. Haven't tried the digital version, but both the regular game and legacy versions are solid games.

Totally agreed

She just has some games she wants to play on it that don't even have an entry on protondb (COD Black ops 4... I was shocked when I searched and couldn't find it). So I'll have to do some research.

We'll see about that lol

She's not at all the Linux person I am, so that might be a hard sell even if the software is bad

It's definitely an option that I'll keep in mind, though. I've tried Bazzite on my desktop and it seems like a really great project.

Ah fuck

The wife wants an Ally X for her birthday when they release them in a few days. Hopefully these issues are cleared up soon

(Believe me I tried steering her away from it but she likes the smaller form factor too much vs other offerings.)

When my boss says "Got time for a call?"

Hypnotic pattern is good if you know what you're casting it against isn't immune or resistant to Charm.

If it isn't resisted, it can be a combat-ending spell.

Hypnotic Pattern, Haste, and Revivify are all great choices too

But

Fireball, Fireball, and (Fireball for Light clerics) Spirit Guardians is understandable

As a furry

The Heritage Foundation can get absolutely fucked.

I explain fast boot to people by saying "for some reason Microsoft went and made the Shut Down button not actually shut down your PC, it really just puts it into a 'deep sleep' mode, and to their credit, it lets them say that boot times are faster... But it also means that in order to FULLY restart the PC, you have to click restart... I know it's a pain"

Usually I get looked at like I'm from another planet, but that reaction means they'll probably remember it later.

I added that line because they got downvoted, assumed it was because someone thought it was just a statement rather than starting that train of thought

... But every police officer is racist!

Testing this out today on my setup! Happy to see the 555 drivers on Bazzite.

Lol yes - midnight commenting problems lol

I might take you up on that offer.

Yeah I'm in WDR too and they seem... Unnecessarily strict

I literally just want some help doing A Night At The Theatre for my Quest Cape and they apparently want Virtus KC before they'll even help you...

Shit's backwards as hell.

Looks like it's in Nebraska

Would've never rented from them had I known this.

Fuckem.

Nintendo is just on their own planet when it comes to... Basically everything, including game pricing.

Better yet - according to this page it's on by default

(as long as it's supported by the hardware.)

The 5th circuit is already notoriously conservative too.

Should be fun.

Then buy a physical copy and store backups on a media server.

That or buy the media on a digital service and rip the file or screen capture it out.

Even buying a physical copy only entitles you to "ownership of a license" nowadays anyway. Ie: how Nintendo gets away with all their bs surrounding emulation.

Iirc Smite turned off their EAC Linux Restriction awhile ago, might be worth looking into.

Haven't tested it at all though, so ymmv

Supergiant has the level of respect from me that early Blizzard had.

They have done nothing but release complete, solid games throughout their history. Everything in their library is at least an 8/10 and worth the money imo.

I have no reason to believe Hades 2 will be any different based on the tech test and the couple hours I played today.

Pyre was arguably a miss

But I see it as more of a red-headed-stepchild of their games.

It still has the trademark excellent writing and gameplay, but it didn't sell well because it's just a quirky game.

There was no market for a "wizard-basketball visual novel" (their words, not mine)

The tech test was already feeling really solid. New characters, more detailed art, continuation of the story from Hades 1 with a new big bad....

I'm a fan of Supergiant in general, so I'm really excited to get further into it.
