Yeah but if be gets overcharged it goes into sleep mode.

Well, better to be recalled instead of buying something off brand and replacing it every three months like I did with other batteries and cords before I caught on to those shifty Amazon scammy retailers.

…I mean yes it’d be great if nothing was recalled at all, but uhhhh, I ain’t gonna hold this one against them.

That’s the one.

Aside from that I sort by release date and check back every now and then.

I just now noticed they had a toggle for ‘Released,’ so I don’t have to see a bunch of TBD games. I’m just gonna start doing what you’re doing and keep an eye on the list once in a while. Thank you for the tip!

I wish they’d expand on it and have a filter for player count in co-op. I have a game group of five and finding co-op, 5 player games is hard/most of them cap at 4.

The ones that don’t cap at 4 and aren’t requiring high dexterity (i.e. fps) are base building survival games all the way down— which are fine for the most part, don’t get me wrong, I just wish we could find something with the production quality and premise of Outlast Trials.

So far we’ve done: Conan Exiles, The Forest (1 & 2), Astroneer, Core Keeper, Return to Moria, Green Hell (may have been before we were at 4), Demonic, Deep Rock (with a 5 player mod), and a little REPO (which was good, but no progression system yet). I wanted to try Barotrauma but the puppet movement’s a bit janky for me.

I know there’s a third party search engine I can use, but it’s sooo full of junk it’s hard to find anything worthwhile.

Looking forward to The Big Walk, and am keeping an eye on Dune when it comes to consoles.

I assure you I only found humor in people personifying a person into “Amber Lamps,” I did not recognize I was laughing alongside others who were laughing for racist reasons centered around poking fun of urban phonetics.

…ok so for this one I was laughing at him thinking he confidently could break his cuffs and people turning it into songs and adjacent memes, I didn’t think at the time about the power dynamics and systemic racism surrounding the incident at the time.

…ok so for this one, um, so that’s MS paint, a chainsaw, and a banned website… yes, ok you know what? I’ll just uh, I’ll see myself out.

I wish I didn’t have an easier time empathizing with animals than I did people; rats are so friggin’ cute

Hell if I watch an ant long enough I’ll find them cute too. Wiping dirt off their little antennae 🥺

I’m probably gonna die getting bit by a rabid raccoon as I try to pet them.

As much as I enjoyed Idiocracy when it came out, I wish its proposed answer/crux of the issue wasn’t “smart people should have kids” and instead focused on educating the ones that are already here/brought into this world.

I’ll hop on this!

Ironically I indeed have come around to eating them as a snack, which I never would’ve considered at the time.

(I was more about whatever high sodium crap triggered the dopamine at the convenience store nearby: chips, Chex mix, corn nuts, etc.)

Even now some recipe apps— when I look for gluten free stuff— I can tell it didn’t filter my results and instead just appended “gluten free” to ingredients that normally have gluten.

Which I get, but like… gluten free bread is gross/they haven’t mastered that at all.

A while back a dev invited users to test out his app in beta that gave recipe ideas based on your dietary preferences (back before everyone was doing it).

I told it I’m vegetarian, am lactose free (m’spouse is lactose intolerant), and gluten free (I’m not, but 23andMe told me to maybe cut back on gluten to avoid developing the celiac’s I’m at risk for/others in my family have).

The only food it came up with for me— for dinner— was “a handful of almonds.”

That phrase has become a running gag with friends and I whenever we’re hungry af, because I’ll never forget how hilarious of a dinner suggestion that was. It felt akin to my vegetarian experience of going to a stakehouse for my grandpa’s birthday and the waiter being understandably woefully unprepared for my dietary preferences.

Zombo’s never left me 🫂

Yeah I literally got my diagnosis (without even really seeking one out) a week or so before RFK announced his database.

Oh well, fuck him. I’m not gonna let that asshole rob me of my mental health journey.

hey now, at least we dehumanize and tuck our embarrassing drug addicts into the lower class neighborhoods and under bridges were they belong so we can ignore them easier! /s

anxiety meds, not beat myself up for feeling dead inside/the same level of emotions everyone else has (e.g. not crying when relatives die irl but crying at some movies), adhd meds instead of trying to rawdog curbing my procrastination with mindfulness and pomodoros and beating myself up when it doesn’t work; know what stimming is/how to explain the odd noises to my neighbors in case they ever hear me talking to myself aloud, also how to explain why I walk on my toes. know what alexithmyia is and that your body can have panic attacks while thinking your mind is 100% calm, thus making you think you’re having a heart attack.

That’s a word vomit list of things; meds are the only things you need the diagnosis for/I don’t blame people for not pursuing an official diagnosis. But again I wish I knew sooner/I had seen more explicit depictions of autism in media other than movies (which I watch a lot of) like Rain Man or Mercury Rising.

Brios? Those were great!

Being diagnosed with autism at 40 didn’t help, wish I knew I had it sooner.

I do think it’s ironic that a chunk of the places that have universal healthcare still have a massive smoking problem.

I can’t help but wonder in a silver-linings-to-shit-stains kind of way if part of the reason smoking was curbed as much as it was in the states (aside from successful votes/lobbying) is because it’s too expensive to die from.

Different strokes for different folks I know, but to me it’s just a cocktail of stress with nothing to show for it but souvenirs and memories that are too expensive to revisit.

The only silver lining I can think of to being forbidden to retire is the fact that a forced schedule and activity of something to do will at least keep my mind engaged and force me out of bed.

Left to my own devices, if I had nothing but time and money, I would be bored out of my gourd and depressed.

And no I wouldn’t travel; I am a hermit. If it wasn’t for my spouse I wouldn’t go anywhere.
