  Sometimes I’ll rename myself “Free XP Weekend” and invade people and then just jump off a cliff or let them wreck me. For free XP.

  Having worked as a game designer, I humbly disagree with your instructor. No amount of brilliance or success makes it okay for someone to be ac douche

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The free Delta game emulator for iPhones is live on Apple’s App Store⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The fact that popular free apps in the EU are subject to fees unless they come up with their own app store is bullshit and clearly Apple trying to punish developers over there. Like, “if you don’t want to owe us money, then make it so the only people who can find your app are those who already know about it”?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is Google deliberately slowing down YouTube video buffering for adblock users?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have a 2Gbps internet connection, and at my desktop running Firefox, I can’t reliably stream anything fancier than 1080p60. In the next room on my TV with an AndroidTV box attached, 4K60 streams flawlessly.

  I never see ads because I pay for Premium, yet they still fuck me over.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What difficult games/game challenges did you give up on?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I tried replaying the Kingdom Hearts games leading up to playing KH3. Got all the way to the final boss sequence in KH1, but I just couldn’t get past the second phase, and I didn’t have any good saves for going back and leveling up. Gave up. Already beat it as a kid when it first came out. No need to kill myself in my late-30s for it.

  Yeah, I also paid for Destiny 2 on launch, and then like a year later they went f2p and archived all the original content I paid for. Really, really shitty.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Get ready to hear more about "pre-internet" times⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Now I’m wondering if part of why DJs talked over songs was specifically so we COULDN’T get clean recordings on cassette…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Get ready to hear more about "pre-internet" times⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I rip all my CDs to FLAC so I can listen to them easily while working or driving or walking or otherwise where having headphones and a phone is easy but carrying a book of burned backups and a CD Walkman would be hard.

  But I also have a humble collection of vinyl because I actually really like the ritual of placing the stylus and listening and turning the record over when I want to just… hear the music and enjoy it for itself.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The march towards an all-EV future hit a major roadblock. What went wrong?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m trying hard to hold out buying a new vehicle until I can move into somewhere I can charge an EV. Sold my last ICE when I moved overseas, and current apartment has no charging places.
