Yeah denuvo is such a buzzkill. I used to dislike it on performance grounds alone… But dude, when I went to play dead space on a plane for the first time, and that lil fucker told me it required internet to allow single player gameplay? 😤 fuuuuuck that. Never again.

everyone: Nintendo is a horrible company that does shit that’s harmful to consumers and the gaming industry!
also everyone: WOW can you believe I was able to buy a Nintendo Switch 2 the literal day it released?!?!
We really showed them. 🤷♂️

After how id treated my man Mick Gordon, I’m torrenting cracked versions of their games here on out - pulling the patient gamer card.
Fuck the management at id. Just another corporate machine.

Oh wow this is amazing! I especially like that you can work both ways, starting with something broad and narrowing down or vice versa. Thanks for these!!

This, big time.
One thing that helped me: I went out and found a list online of emotional descriptor words and, while journaling, I’d start my entries listing the emotions I felt in the moment and elaborate on them individually.
I struggle hard to verbalize my thoughts in general, but emotions (especially strong & conflicted ones) can be overwhelming to verbalize!

Grew up in southern Idaho. Yeah that’s pretty much what I experienced growing up, too!
Wasn’t just admitting wrongness that was seen as weakness, though - honestly I came to find that most empathetic, society benefitting behaviors are spun and contorted into a weakness.
Ironic to me that, at least thru my eyes, spinning stuff like that into a “weakness” indicates to me that they’re avoiding the work they’d need to put in to be better… Which, is the real weakness here!
I think a significant portion of the problems in the US stems from a lack of willingness to work on themselves, aiming to minimize their impact on those around them (and thus themselves, through societal proxy). On the contrary, people install loud ‘mufflers’ to show they don’t give a fuck. Or leave carts outside the corral. Or scream at fast food workers, display flagrant racism, refuse to wear COVID masks - whatever.
Good ol Golden Rule really would solve it all, I think.

Ah shit last I checked this was still pretty heavy alpha – have they made some progress on this recently?? Super stoked for this to be come a thing!
- Comment on Which game is it? 3 months ago:
I skipped straight to fulgora first! Then vulcanus, then gleba. by far gleba was a rough factory style for me to adjust to… Then I tackled aquilo 😬 Good lord, this one is rough!
Loving every minute, though. So satisfying to find better ways to build in the different environments!

Nnnooooo god is it really? I fucking despise discord but I have a couple dipshit friend groups that refuse to shift off the platform (hard to argue w/ Xbox integration)… Jfc if that shit goes public its downhill from an already downhill slope 😭 horrendous

What the FUCK.
I immediately went to settings and, I guess at some point I’d already given these swine my phone number? Went to remove it and I’ve greeted by this wonderful toast message=
God I wish something was fully suitable as an easy discord replacement 😭 spacebar seems rad if it wasn’t super alpha. And as cool as element is, it just doesn’t have the same low bar to entry that discord has (not to mention group calls are jank as hell, when they work, and there’s no screen share yet tragically)…

…in 2003, [bismuth] was discovered to be extremely weakly radioactive. The metal’s only primordial isotope, bismuth-209, undergoes alpha decay with a half-life about a billion times the estimated age of the universe.
Jesus crust!

That’s not even the best one, though. For a brief window I tried my best to create a little portable Ubuntu environment on a USB drive so I could just bring all my software with me, games and all, and just boot into it when I got to school!
Well, eventually I had the thought that I could potentially install it on a second hidden partition, and select it from boot time… But I guess in the heat of the moment (I had a little group of friends standing behind me blocking the librarians’ view, all cheering me on), I ended up misclicking and overwriting the OS, wiping the hard drive in the process 😅😅
Needless to say, they were not thrilled. Unfortunately, believe it or not, a group of kids crowded around one guy at a computer is a fucking beacon when you’re searching video feeds for suspects 😅 they had found me out by the next day and banned me from the computers for a year. (My friends just gave me their logins anyways 🤘)
- Comment on Anon sets up a prank at school 4 months ago:
Ah man I have so many stories about my high school schenanigains.
Every student had a folder named as their student ID on the smb network, all in one big folder. I created a folder there with a fake student ID just 1 above mine, so all I had to do was change my path from /students/1234 to 1235 and bam - I’m in my alt account. I had cracked copies of halo, starbound, gmod, powder toy, Terraria, Minecraft… all sorts of goodies!
Eventually I found that since this phony user folder 1235 wasn’t tied to a domain user, its read/write permissions weren’t locked down - so anybody on the network could access or add to the folder, so I shared it around with friends and it grew quickly! Didn’t realize that meant deleting stuff, too; some kids just had chaos in mind, and would randomly delete shit because hAHa I DelEted the FolDer!!1! Ah, high school.
So eventually I got a system down where I’d keep backups elsewhere, and I’d refresh the war-torn main folder every so often, or switch to a new bogus ID to keep it among my friends - but better yet, if I was lucky enough to catch it disappearing in realtime, I’d often throw it right back up with something flashy and new in there, like a new CoD game or something, with surface level ‘shortcut’ links to the game executable right at the top of the directory, complete with a convincing custom icon. Instead of running a game or something, though, it instead ran scripts that either identified the leak (CD tray eject in a library computer bay? Immediate audio queue locating the assholes), or in later stages when patching the leak still failed, I’d bait them into a script that’d nuke their PC somehow 😂
my personal favorite, I built what I called the ‘tree bomb’ - a recursive .batch file that launches itself in another window, then runs "tree C:". Within around a second you’d go from a functional PC to a screen filled with terminals spitting out a representation of your hard drive’s contents 🤣 in retrospect, I made a malware! 😅

Absolutely badass. Crazy to think that folks just a coupla generations up from us had lives without modern medicine and stuff (eg birth in a teepee!) Incredible. I guess sometimes it feels like modern medicine has been around longer than it has.
