- Comment on Stamets posting about Tardigrades? Groundbreaking 6 days ago:
The fact that, if I remember correctly and it’s true, that tardigrades can survive absolute zero temperature is insane. I don’t know any other living thing that could survive that cold of weather.

Some day in the future, I absolutely need to pick up a copy of Maze Mice since I recently played the demo to death after finding it on itch(dot)io. Think an endless game of Superhot meets something like Vampire Survivors. I didn’t realize it, but it’s from the Luck Be A Landlord dev.
Other than that, I have not been playing much, but I have checked out the latest beta ( testing? ) update for Dungeon Clawler and I like the Starlet character better than the other one because I did a whole run where I didn’t take any hits from any enemies, until final boss ruined that.
Not many other games played besides having to start over in Slay The Spire because I couldn’t find my old save from before I picked it up on Steam. I forget just how hard the game can be, regardless of skill ( or lack thereof ).
- Comment on Despite cutting the gags, Borderlands 4's PC specs say it still needs 100GB of SSD space 1 week ago:
Yeah, 100GB is already 80GB over my allotted games software download maximum. Any game over 20GB, more likely less, if I wanna accept the download, because I need that space for a million other things, is more than enough for any optimized game.
Maybe if these freaks just actually tried optimizing ( or at least letting the devs do their job instead of micromanaging every single second of their lives ) instead of being mentally deficient people, they could make a game at a reasonable storage needed amount.

I recently had fun voicing the different characters in Promises To Keep on Itch(dot)io. Warning! It’s a furry visual novel! Don’t get to do stuff like that much because I don’t want my parents or brother hearing me do this type of stuff.
I also have been using a glitch in Gemcraft Chasing Shadows to progress because I am at the point where I’m not doing so hot.
Otherwise, I cannot think of much else I’ve been doing besides going back to Hotline Miami to try and get everything I missed and every achievement.
I am personally not all too interested in either Hollow Knight or Silksong, but more power to those who are.
- Comment on What are your top games to emulate on a long trip? 2 weeks ago:
Here’s a list of games I’d recommend based off of things like length to complete ( at least maybe 2 or more hours minimum ) in no particular order:
• Final Fantasy X ( PS2, but has a remaster on Steam I think if anyone cares )
• Hot Wheels Beat That ( PS2 )
• Dokopon Kingdom ( Wii ( I’ve had seemingly seizure level texture glitches on PS2 version that can only be stopped by loading a save state or completely rebooting the game on emulator ) )
• Sonic Unleashed ( xbox360/decomp ( kinda cheating, can also get Hedgemod Manager for a modded playthrough, requires dump of original xbox360 game/DLC files ) )

I, for one, am absolutely excited. Now I desperately need to finish my replay of the Rush series on my soft modded 3DS.
- Comment on Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of August 31st 2 weeks ago:
I just recently beat the hardest difficulty of Dungeon Clawler using the character that damages enemies when it gets self-damage. Kept basically doing the same run over and over to get the achievement and say I’ve done it.
Besides that, Gemcraft Chasing Shadows. Been trying not to cheat too much after finding out about the glitch that allows you to upgrade gems at a low mana cost.
Otherwise I haven’t been playing many other games. Been hesitant to install Steins;Gate for some reason despite really wanting to play it.

- Comment on Who is the enemy? 3 weeks ago:
Throw me into a game and if the controls make sense it will probably be second nature to me in 15 minutes for me.
That’s how I feel with just about any platformer that don’t have tank controls. Whether or not I’m good at said game is a whole different story…

Video game content creators hate reading ( especially controls )
- Comment on Internet standards body proposes new header field disclosing AI — will make it easier for machines to determine if AI was used on a site 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, I’mma doubt this is gonna do anything good in the long run, as much as I would want it to. How would the computer be able to tell if the content of the website was written using AI but the header says it’s AI free?
It also sounds like a great way to show AI crawlers where to go to steal information and steal web page contents to feed into training data.

Tesla. From what I have heard, he may have been a little eccentric ( paranoid even? ) so it’d be fun to see if I could get him to think I’m some sort of government agent looking to stop him from doing what he does.
- Comment on Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of August 17th 5 weeks ago:
Just got back into Sonic Mania Plus. I’m close to beating it. At one of the final zones with all chaos emeralds as Tails ( best character in the whole franchise, will not take any slander to his good name ). Totally didn’t cheat by opening the settings(dot)ini file to temporarily turn on the debug menu so I could get back the chaos emeralds I missed or didn’t get.
Besides that, haven’t played much besides Mindustry. I was stuck on Peaks on Erekir because I was dumb and couldn’t figure out how to transfer the tungsten. My solution was bad, but it worked. I stopped playing because the other planet is boring compared to the capture the enemy territory levels.

Ain’t no controversy. I see a teen with hair like that and I know they’re the opposite of cool. It tells me immediately to never cross paths with them if I am ever near any lockers.

Mostly the pokemon fangame Pokemon Decay.
I was going to break my years long permanent quitting of minecraft to try a modpack, but Curseforge wasn’t working on my laptop and then I accidentally deleted a bunch of appimages off my device and have given up on mc since.
- Comment on Portal, but the portal surfaces are inverted 5 weeks ago:
Saw this a while ago and it’s pretty cool. Some of the solutions to some puzzles definitely feel too RNG for even someone like myself who loves randomness. Specifically the ones where you gotta hit the energy pellet into the receptacle, near the end of the testing track.
- Comment on What are your experiences using Linux for gaming? 1 month ago:
I’m a noob when it comes to gaming on Linux, having to rely on WINE just working without any changes or Proton on Steam if there’s no Linux port. Still learning how to do more advanced things with WINE rather than just run and hope the program works.
So far I haven’t had any major issues with getting games to play, except for a couple old PC games I found on MyAbandonware that probably need some extra work to work properly. Doesn’t display correctly or play the music for either. Otherwise, my experience has been pretty good.
As for distro side of things, I don’t know, outside of SteamOS on my Steam Deck, I have no clue on what’s happening in the games sphere. I just have Steam downloaded from either my package manager or flathub and call it good there.
Oh, and I also have the native Itchio storefront program and it works just fine as long as I don’t change the language to a certain language because it’ll just cause sorts of problems ( probably due to me not having a language pack for it installed ). The one visual novel I’ve played on Itchio on my laptop worked just fine out of the box, but I assume that’s more or less thanks to the devs.

- Comment on Blocking Access to Harmful Content Will Not Protect Children Online, No Matter How Many Times UK Politicians Say So 1 month ago:
Imagine you’re a teen dealing with a serious parental abuse issue. You don’t wanna give that info up to just anyone, so you rely on forums for people that are having or have had the same type of problem. Suddenly, under the new law, you are either geoblocked from the site entirely or you must provide some form of age verification.
Your options are either get a VPN ( which could very well be being blocked soon enough ) or you could find a free speech forum on the edge of the web that doesn’t require any of that. For people with even just slightly above average tech skills, a VPN wouldn’t be that hard to get.
For the forum, I can guarantee there are gonna be people looking to make you feel welcome, only to suddenly change once you’re comfortable and start demanding illicit content. Although this probably happens a lot on big platforms like ex-twitter, you have more options to deal with the people on there. The admins/mods of free speech sites probably aren’t gonna care as much if you’re getting abused on their free speech for all forums, so long as you don’t report their site to the government.
If neither of those are a good enough answer, imagine any company responsible for all the age verification stuff. Imagine they keep all the info they collect, whether that’s the verification for adults or minors. You know they aren’t getting rid of that data because it’s worth more kept and constantly being sold than if it was being deleted. What would happen if their repository of age verification data got hacked? A matter of when, not if, they get hacked, and suddenly every single person who submitted an ID, including the IDs of minors, gets stolen and suddenly any minor in their database is now a very likely victim of ID theft and fraud before they’re even considered a legal adult.

Definitely.
Although, I don’t think I’d go for a full suit for my fursona because I’ve never imagined them naked, I’ll agree this is a good idea.
- Comment on Count yourself lucky 1 month ago:
I have thought about that, but for the first one I get, if I ever get one, I’m probably gonna get one without just to make sure I can handle it. Last thing I want is to spend a ton of money on a fursuit with a ton of extras only to find my body cannot handle it, with or without fans.
- Comment on So GOG going to relist Devotion? Seeing how they're about freedom to buy games. 1 month ago:
I’ve played a bit of it ( haven’t finished ) and so far it’s pretty good. I totally wish I didn’t see a playthrough of their other game, Detention, around 2018, so I could go in for a completelt blind playthrough like I am for Devotion.
- Comment on Count yourself lucky 1 month ago:
That’s why I’m definitely gonna get a partial if I ever get a fursuit. All I need is the head, hand paws, and tail. Then I’d be set… as soon as I get a bunch of sweat reduction clothing and more black pants and long sleeve shirts.
- Comment on Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of August 3rd 1 month ago:
I had an amazing run going earlier on Dungeon Clawler using Toxicarl and the kiddo pets. I could stack millions of stacks of poison on the enemies. Got to somewhere like floor 70 or so before dying.
Other than that, I have been on and off with most every other game I’ve attempted to play due to me finding them more boring nowadays.
The exception being a pokemon fangame: Pokemon Decay, which is kinda cool. Whole thing of the region you are in is the result of the first 4 regions being smashed together due to a decade prior the 3 legendary Hoenn creatures causing things to go chaotic and causing lots of chaos. Has new forms of pokemon, new evolutions for some, and for the most part they all look like well designed sprites.

One of my gripes with that game is the singular ending for the main game. Otherwise it definitely feels new compared to the original.
- Comment on Be nice 1 month ago:
The cost of all stuffed animals at a thrift shop.
Then I could easily work on increasing the amount of rescues I will have. It’s currently 1.5 rescue to 4 others ( purchased at a store, gift shop, gift, etcetera ).
My goal to someday have more rescues than store bought would be a little easier.
Oh yeah, and kids would have an easier time accessing them because $1 stuffed animals are a lot easier to convince a parent to buy than a $5.99 stuffed animal. But I don’t like kids, so they were an afterthought!
