  I’m pretty sure I spent more time playing Ghent than the actual game. And I’m still upset that the standalone version sucked.

  You think you saw it there, but once you move the thing you learn it’s actually a thumbtack. The screw fell into a vent instead, and will occasionally rattle around to taunt you.

  Or ADHD. That shit will catch my attention every 17 seconds, the impulse is gonna win eventually.

  It’s even worse when you bake sourdough. I’ve been cultivating that yeast colony, caring for it, loving it. It thinks I care, but it’s only being prepared for slaughter.

  Only because I don’t want to be mistaken for a policeman.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do all the new TVs expect me to have a platform AS WIDE as the fucking thing?? Fucking shit!! God awful absolutely dumb thoughtless design choice⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Center-mount stands have been around for years, and were the standard for a very long time. If made well, they work for very large TVs.

  They’re doing this to cheap out on manufacturing, nothing more. Don’t give them a pass for it.

  For the record, good American cheese does exist. It’s just a blend of cheddar and Colby with some annatto for seasoning, instead of the extruded “cheese product” stuff in plastic wrappers.

  When I used to play CoD, I did something very similar to this. I’d spawn with a knife (and maybe a pistol), and had to “earn” better guns by grabbing them from kills. Like Gun Game, but more fun since everybody else was properly equipped.

  It sounds simple and silly, but it kept me playing those games for 2ish years longer than I would have otherwise.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Games that require you to unlock the basic functions of the game can suck my nuts.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  That was my main complaint with the game. I didn’t mind starting limited and building up to full control, but it should have taken half of the time. And some of the early pairings were pretty rough to use without their full kit.

  We just need the rest of the Linux gang to experience the glory of pacman+AUR, it’s not our fault they don’t listen.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Intel's New GPU Drivers Boost Performance Up To 750% in DX11, 53% in DX12⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It used to be completely busted, but I’ve heard that support is getting better. Recent kernels and mesa have been updated to support them, but the Intel drivers are way behind what Windows gets.

  Non-gaming use could be fine, I’m planning on trying one myself soon.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨HBO Max is removing features from my plan without reducing my price.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  And as an added bonus: If I buy the blu-ray, I don’t need to keep the massive 4k remuxes on my server. It’s a win-win.
