The few times in my life I’ve been to therapy or counseling on times at very different ages in my life for wildly different reasons, it’s interesting that every single time, it amounted to them nicely asking me to let it go. Just stop letting whatever IT is affect you. Thanks asshole. How is that a fucking career?
I’ll go first. Mine is that I can’t stand the Deadpool movies. They are self aware and self referential to an obnoxious degree. It’s like being continually reminded that I am in a movie. I swear the success of that movie has directly lead to every blockbuster having to have a joke every 30 seconds
I put a dollar in, won a car. I put a dollar in, won a car. I put a dollar in, won a car. I put a dollar in, won a car. I put a dollar in, won a car. I put a dollar in, won a car. I put a dollar in, won a car. I put a dollar in, won a car. I put a dollar in, won a car. I put a dollar in, won a car. I put a dollar in, won a car. I put a dollar in, won a car. I put a dollar in, won a car. I put a dollar in, won a car. I put a dollar in, won a car. I put a dollar in, won a car.
Sony’s own PS Remote Play app has always been garbage. Even on PC, on phones, on anything. I never had faith they’d improve it for Portal. Sony has only disappointed me nonstop since 2011. Steam has only continued to win me over time and time again.
Haven’t listened to the radio in over 15 years. Don’t regret it at all. Most of my favorite new music comes rarely, through some form of word of mouth, and usually by supporting the new music on patreon or something.
That’s literally uncomparable. Government does things that ignore profit. That’s what government is for. The provide services at a loss. The only “profit” might be things like societal improvement, education, security, and such.
Don’t see the point of these when it’s always the same popular things, and some don’t drop off the list for a decade. Many of these games are not as good as people suggest. They all just copy each other and play the same crap. Same issue as highest grossing movies, that’s more a product of hype than quality.
The Witcher 3 is an excellent example. Incredibly overrated slow moving dreary game with poor gameplay and controls.
GTA V is super misleading too. This is just one giant PvP map and idiots killing each other. Most of them never actually played the story.
I seriously do not understand going the fuck to bed earlier. Just go to bed earlier. Your body adapts over time. Sure schools could move the start time, but if not, just start the sleep sooner.
Family reunions: a time when people who largely don’t care at all about one another get together to pretend they don’t all hate each other’s guts and will temporarily try not to talk shit about the others (this will proceed immediately after), during which they all pretend to want to learn useless info about others and it’s always dominated by the most narcissistic of elderly who want to be listened to and hear their own voice a lot.
I have got my OLED Steamdeck today and made a picture with my old one side by side. The display is a little bit bigger, the touch screen is way better (more like a smartphone).
I think the combined improvements is game changing. It all runs longer, cooler, lighter, larger screen and brighter, and the screw changes for improved repairability is huge.
A metal gear type game where the AI is trained on how all players play worldwide and it adapts and evolves over time in how it stations and uses its soldiers against you and for patrols. Every time you go back to play, the layouts and movements and gear and reactions of enemy AI differ.
The first time was on PC and I started in Vvardenfell and I think I just didn’t like the setting or feel like using PC controls.
The 2nd time was years later, I was literally wanting a new mmorpg, so there was more desire, I did it on console, began in Khenarthi’s and found a fun guild. Worlds of difference for so many reasons.
So I was watching a few youtubes and remembered how the vast majority (of like the ten) nes games me and my sister had were hard as all hell. I loved to play Little Nemo and Street Fighter 2010 but I am pretty sure I never made it past the third level of either. Let alone infamously hard games like The Lion King....
Terraria. Spent so much time in it. Tons of fun. I liked a lot of it. But I compared to other friends and realized I was terrible and barely even saw much of the game cause I didn’t get very far.
Nothing lasts forever. In time, the continents will crash into each other once more, the sun will swallow the planet and, at some point long after that, The Simpsons will end. But that isn’t to say that it’s incapable of moving with the times before then. Because, in yet another nod to shifting tastes, Homer Simpson has...
Literally entire super bowl episode? Gags about 10 billion hours of pre-game? Small bits where Homer chuckles at sports commentators? Homer taking over running the kids football team? Mark McGuire distracting everyone from a surveillance conspiracy? Homer literally chained himself to a post to protest losing the Isotopes?
Gen Z and millennial adults are having a hard time achieving the same milestones their parents did when they first ventured out into the workforce, such as finding a job, getting promoted or buying a house.
Ha! What a joke of an article. The financial and environmental and social concerns today are wildly different. Many CAN’T do what their parents or grandparents did. It’s not a one to one comparison.
Yes, and some kids don’t have parents, and some kids have horrible parents. And some of us aren’t pieces of shit, and we would like rights and protections for those who can’t defend themselves from shitty parents, so therefore we ignore how “theoretically” things could be better if all parents were magically “doing their jobs” and sometimes it makes sense to sue or institute laws to force people to not harm their kids.
You presume there always exists a capable parent to fail. You are displaying privilege. You are displaying a classic case of “I won’t care until it happens to me.” and arguing for perfection.
In this world view, no company should ever be held responsible for harm to others, and no laws should exist to protect people from things, and no services should exist to help those in need of things since apparently everyone can and should just be perfect citizens all the time and raised properly by well-adjusted adults. /s
I suspect this was done to me. I found out my SS and name was used for various utilities related things back when I was a young child. When asked, my parents insisted some OTHER family members must have done it, and they never answered how the hell other family members got my SS when my parents are typically super secretive and protective of info like that.
Hiya, pretty much the title. I have a dozen tapes I want to backup before age takes its toll. My basic idea after watching some videos online is to buy a hardware based upscaler that can interface with my vcr then throw that signal to a video capture card and record on my computer. I’ll go with name brands to avoid problems...
A lot of places like local libraries sometimes have events for this purpose. You bring your stuff and they help you digitize it. Could look into that locally.
Reminds me of when North Carolinas own oceanic and atmospheric agency published a study on the negative effects climate change will have on their coastal towns, and what they need to do in response to that.
So their state government responded by banning the use of terms like climate change.
