Come on down to your local Burger Baron restaurant, rated the #1 pizza in Onoway, BC! First established in Edmonton, Alberta…is one claim amongst many!

Forza Horizon 6 and Fallout 4 VR heavily modded of course.
Forza I disable all the assists and get sweaty. Fallout 4 VR eventually got enough 6 DoF mods to almost hit parity with Skyrim VR modded so I’m finally giving it a go along with community story expansions and all the other shit you’d want. It’s a weak game in the series but still fun to bumble around.
I just finished some old quality streamer bait slop with Water Park Simulator because I wanted to turn my brain off for awhile. It’s good for that, pretty stupid game besides. It’s hilarious how you can build huge water slides by the end of the game but pool depth never gets deeper so NPC just smash into the bottom of the pools.
Oh and I play Heros of Might and Magic Olden Era plus Emberward TDS on and off when updates come out.
That’s it for now.
- Comment on For those of you with LineageOS and rely on F-Droid/FOSS apps, how do you make extra money without gig apps like DoorDash? 5 days ago:
I don’t know anyone like that but if I were to I’d have a second phone which I would only use for said gig apps and nothing else.

- Comment on How do fonts for people with dyslexia work? 1 week ago:
Opposite for me, I use these fonts where available despite not being dyslexic. I can read just fine but it can strain my eyes to focus since I have really bad astigmatism and also an immune system disorder that causes inflammation in my dominant eye, a lot of stuff can trigger flare ups so I try to reduce eye strain wherever possible.

No since the problematic word is “intelligence.”

I will, for the fans still paying to see him in Epstein’s Arena.
I’ll take a big fan with me, point it at the crowd, and shit in a bucket. You can guess where this is going.
- Comment on What was the actual reason for the crusade against NSFW games? 3 weeks ago:
I wouldn’t fully credit them, at best. VISA and MasterCard have their own puritan history, that fringe group is a scapegoat to do what they wanted to do anyways.
- Comment on The Steam Frame Is More Than Just Another VR Headset - Aftermath (Chris Person) 3 weeks ago:
I’ll cheerlead universal compatibility any day even if I have no reason to buy this myself. No new games means I don’t care. I’m in the “been there, done that” group.
There’s one VR game I’m interested in playing and that’s https://github.com/Crementif/BotW-BetterVR
I don’t think that alone worth $1500 before tax and shipping to Canada 😅
I tried with Index but my 12th i5 isn’t good enough either so I’d need a new computer as well…looks outside ah, right.

He’s strict with drugs still including pain killers in hospital. Did his vasectomy on camera without numbing.
One exception was for his pay to view stunts video he did a couple years back where he found a willing quack to inject something directly into his spinal cord and then immediately sprint until he was temporarily paralysed. He was okay with that since it was brief, not fun, and not psychoactive.

That was oddly specific AND relatable.
- Comment on KytyPS5 (PS5 Emulator) can now run GTA V at 60fps for few minutes before crashing 4 weeks ago:
PS4 and PS5 emulators I don’t think any of them actually emulate the CPU at least. This is more like QEMU and WINE, sort of. They do emulate some stuff like parts of the firmware, memory management, input/output systems, API.
The first PS4 emulator that got in-game with a few 2D titles was literally just a modified version of QEMU as a proof of concept. Only ran on Unix based operating systems because the PS4 runs a modified version of FreeBSD.
- Comment on Why are lemmings so touchy about downvotes? 4 weeks ago:
I’d combine Slashdot’s voting system with the original iteration of the long defunct Facepunch Forums Smartness system. It was rather mean but I loved how it boosted overall communication quality because it forced users to spellcheck and avoid using slurs.
Facepunch also had emoticon reactions like Pylova/Piefed although our system is pretty shit with WAY too many emoticons, so much so that they’ll fail to all fully load in.
Basically a new account started with 5000 points. Different spelling or grammar mistakes along with slurs lost you differing amounts of points. You gained points with error free posts/replies, but it was balanced in such a way that you’d lose points and get auto banned when you hit 0 pretty quickly if you didn’t try to improve. Uncorrected errors would be underlined, colored red, and visible to everyone else. IIRC you could edit posts and correct them but you didn’t regain lost points by doing so, just avoided having shameful red errors.

If I sign up for a torrenting site like torrent galaxy or something
That’s a public tracker/index. You don’t need to sign up at all to connect to a public tracker swarm.
and leave my computer running then will other people get seeded?
Yep. You can set bandwidth limits if your upload and/or download internet package is bad so it doesn’t interfere too much.
Or do I have to upload a file or can I just have it finished?
Hit and Run is considered bad manners and selfish behaviour. You can get away with it on public trackers, but private ones typically ban you for that. It’s called leeching. It’ll be based on your total upload/download stats, or your ratio in other words.
- Comment on Why doesn't gnu.org load on my WiFi? 4 weeks ago:
I’m sure there’s a reason. My first thought is it sounds like a DNS issue, but I’m not sure why unless you’re using something like NextDNS and got a false positive block. If the VPN works, makes it even more likely.
