like most things three is about right. Anymore and I tend to get overloaded and any less and I tend to spin my wheels.

that meme is sorta funny. that is actually normal behavior. disney was known for going after people making no money. like literally school plays or such.

yeah my sessions were at the library. whole lot better than oregon trail.

wizmaker ruined this game for me. I never completed it fairly.

wizardry

I mean its hard to say but im pretty sure it was elden ring.

this sorta outlines the reason the idea of getting rid of capitalism completely makes no sense. The government being involved with making a gaming console? Non necessary things can be based on who has the most points or whatever.

did pcgamer learn it by reading a similar article awhile back?

for the last year or two its a tie between elden ring and cyberpunk2077. I actually just completed them for the first time in this last week.

Ive been off mmorpg’s for years now. I miss it a bit but I don’t miss the grind and stick to games I can put down and pick up whenever. I used ot play the cryptic ones which I do feel were very well donw. Well champions and star trek. I was not a big neverwinter fan.

wow. linux. I think this is the first true steamdeck competitor I have heard of since windows is a non starter.

I mean cyberpunk2077 you can by and large pause at any time and you can generally save but there are sometimes where it tells you saving is not allowed. So there are certain points in the story where you can be playing for awhile without a save but its not a super lot. Can be sorta annoying though when you get to them though. Still its not much of the game. Its been awhile but I thought harry potter allowed pausing. Don’t recall it putting me in a difficult position where I could not put it down. Technically elden ring has a hidden pause if you go into a menu in a menu. There are youtube videos on it. Its stressful as heck though as a game. If you quite you are by and large fine to but any enemy that is damage will be at full health when you get back but dead ones will stay dead. Its really not much of an issue except for bosses. I think baldurs gate 3 and starfield allow saving pretty much at any time as well and pause, again its been awhile.

This is how I learned to like shadowbane and elden ring. Death is just a mechanic.

ive been pretty anti consumerist lately so I don’t need much to get me to not buy things.

most of the time a timer is more useful than remote access. I have been very tempted to pick up a clapper.

heck I was mad years ago when my microwave wanted to know the year. this stuff is getting rediculous. I need to start a thing like the amish but no internet connections allowed except for computers and phones. well ok cameras and sensors.

yeah I really don’t want to have to but that is what I had to do with my fridge. keep it offline.

ugh. unemployed.

ugh. wanted to get a oled tv but will not buy a smart tv.

heck I was let go just after the financial year but just before yearly bonuses were given out so I worked the full year and did not get it even though they like to list it as compensation. Its one reason when looking I don’t take any bonus bs as meaningful. Only actual wage.

There was only like one frys in my area so I had not known they disapeared completely.

Man I so hope microcenter or fries or such takes this to heart and makes laptops and desktops with something like applecare and the genius bar.

I have replayed it a bit and twice extensively but that is mainly because 2.0 changed the way the game works so much I started over.

no I mean blocking the trolls

im not social but once I got my chats under control I would joke and clown around on them. Well as well as give advice or do actualy game related talk. To me its sorta like a party and I was more likely to engage socially when I was just hanging for one reason or another and more likely to talk business when the action took place. Like champions had these whole zone super enemies called cosmics that popped every four hours and if you came last minute you would likely get locked out of the full zone and they were impossible to beat below a certain threshold of players. so like you would hang out ten or twenty minutes before and screw around. talk and emotes and whatnot.

yeah. I want the company to support it as a linux device to.

every time I see these my first thought is if its linux. If its not linux its not a steamdeck competitor.

I mean I love open worlds with day/night cycles and other sorta living breathing feels. background views you can’t interact with though. meh.

Yeah I guess for me it originally about a game I could play on the terminal that had such complexity.

oh im sorry. I did not mean to say its an nda like in the story just an effed up contract. It was what they wanted me to sign to get my severance. As I said second time I have had to leave the money on the table.

its still wierd to me athat non ascii things are refered to as roguelike.

So the begininig of time was the one part but it also had this paragraph that listed all associates and went on for awhile. It had things like all stock holders and the company is owned by a holding company so all associates they way they listed could conceivably be practically everyone. Anyone who through all of time owned any company stock that the holding company had or had owned it or since its the begining of time any predicessor of it. Lastly it did not limit the scope to my work at the company. I talked with a lawyer and it did technically have the capacity of disallowing lawsuits for anyone for any reason. Case in point is a doctor fucks up a surgery on my wife and it later comes out he was drunk but he owned stock in a company that was bought by the holding company.

thing with the contract I got was it was readable enough, at least for a person like me, what it was proposing was unreasonable.

yeah its like do you wan to take the risk they can’t enforce the indentured servitude contract when the top judiciary came out of a facist fad period.

nice.

Yeah I go through all the contracts and paperwork and I am never wild about any of them but this is one of two types of things I refused to sign despite losing a fair sum with them. I totally get people signing them though as its a tough loss to deal with. There needs to be laws around reasonableness of contracts.

I did. Means I lost a severance they waived in my face. I think most people actually take the deal but wtf man this is crazy.

My employer after they let me go wanted me sign a contract saying I absolve them and all their associates of everything from the begining of time. yes it actually said from the begining of time.

I was thinking recently how it does not seem like ti would take a lot to have a special edition where jackie keeps the implant and you then get him on all missions and the goal is to save him. Could even have the services because like he has to stay hidden or such. Like hes only with you on the missions but you still have to do all the talking and leg work while he hides out.

WHALE HO!
