Ah yes, P for Phish, classic kindergarten stuff
- Comment on Anon's PC works 2 months ago:
I also have a 2014-ish desktop. Over the years added an SSD and replaced the graphics card around 5 years ago.
I can still run most games on medium settings, even some new ones if they are properly optimized, but nothing crazy, 1080p.
I just started to feel that my rig is getting slower and even AA games become more demanding.
I fully support using hardware as long as possible to minimise e-wadte and see no reason to upgrade a PC every 2-3 years.

A good warm-up poop gets your heart rate up
- Comment on What games have you sunk the most time into? 2 months ago:
Terraria, 480 hours. Every time Im done with the game a new major update comes out and I start a new playthrough.
- Comment on Time is an unstoppable force 2 months ago:
Is this called a sink in the US? I thought the kitchen sink and the bathroom basin are the correct names, but might be UK specific…
- Comment on Time is an unstoppable force 2 months ago:
Congratulations!
- Comment on Which were the worst movies of 2024? 3 months ago:
For an average moviegoer its a below-average action comedy with bad action scenes and weird shit.
For a Borderlands fans its a steaming pile of shit, with the worst casting choices, ignoring the source material, the lore. They just used the name and the idea if the BL world to create some nonsense story with an expensive soundtrack.
They were laser-focused to create a cast made out of big names and recreate the Guardians of the Galaxy formula. Even this didn’t work, there is little to no chemistry between the main characters and the whole plot is just stupid and makes no sense.
- Comment on What game surprised you with their length? 3 months ago:
Im familiar with the mod, but its a mod, the game was designed to be played the way you always balancing on a knives edge. So not much time to enjoy the content (for me at least), when you have constantly ticking clocks reminding you to hurry up.
- Comment on What game surprised you with their length? 3 months ago:
Ist too bad Xcom games are so focused on time limits. I know it meant to add to the tension but its just frustrating to me to non-stop rush everything.
- Comment on The Outer Worlds 2: First Gameplay Trailer 3 months ago:
Loved the trailer, even though the first game was “only” a 7/10 for me. Regardless looking forward to this, Obsidian is making great games consistently.
If the main menu music will be only half as good as the original Im sold :D

- Comment on On a lighter note: Why do people still buy fast food? 4 months ago:
I know it sound crazy, but maybe some days use the time you spend on traveling to and from the fast food place and cook home instead multiple portions of food you enjoy for a fraction of cost.
- Comment on What is your pet peeve in 2024? 4 months ago:
People at work wants me to do something and using phrasing, like “can we check this?” , “we must do xy quickly”. What do you mean WE? If you want me to do something personally just fucking say it MF! It makes my blood boil.

I know it will fail but I really hope it will fail big time to accelerate the dowfall of this soulless corporate piece of shit company.

We knew it 10 years ago, we know it now, how is this news to anyone consuming online digital content?
- Comment on I love children's sense of humour 5 months ago:
Can agree, steak fries and steamed veggies are usually great at steakhouses.
- Comment on I love children's sense of humour 5 months ago:
To be fair the place had a great buffet with a large selection of sides and great cocktails, I ended up eating mac and cheese, curly fries and some salad. Even tried some grilled seasned pineapple so it was at least memorable.
This place was called Nabrasa.
- Comment on I love children's sense of humour 5 months ago:
When I left my old workplace my colleagues organized a good-bye meal together. Standard office job, with regular guys. We had a great relationship and they knew I was vegetarian for 5+ years at that point and never had any issue with it.
So they asked which restaurant I would like to go and I was stupid enough to let them choose.
We ended up in a specialized Brazilian meat restaurant, where the servers go around with absurdly large pieces of grilled/fryed meats and would carve a piece to the guests. If you are a meat lover you can have easily 10-15 types of meats in a couple of hours.
Those assholes had a huge grin on their faces all evening, as I could only eat the sides from the buffet and had to refuse all meals from the servers about 12 time that evening. It was a truly memorable night, we even got drunk and laughed our asses off on our way home.
So yeah, not just kids can be assholes. We are still in contact till this day.

If they were classmates this info would be common knowledge after a few meals together.

Same with IKEA, even though you can look up the exact box sizes online there are still people trying to fit a sofa into a Fiat 500.

Sure, they didn’t unlock the door to tell the person the door is locked, because the store is closed. What a fucking brainfart you having mate?
- Comment on Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford says his hopes on Epic Store were 'overly optimistic or misplaced' 6 months ago:
Wasnt it already a PS+ game years before epic? It literally had millions of players on day one.
I dropped it after my steam copy first time asked me to register an epic account, but till then I didn’t see huge issues with the game apart from the DLC milking.
- Comment on Do you prefer to buy games on Steam or GOG? 6 months ago:
Thanks, yes projects like Heroic or Lutris are great, I use both.
It’s just the fact that one of the all time most requested feature on GoG is Linux support for many years, yet its ignored constantly. Its just disappointing.
- Comment on Do you prefer to buy games on Steam or GOG? 6 months ago:
800 games on Steam, 200 on GoG. I love the DRM free stuff, but Steam has so many great features its on a whole other level to be honest.
+Steam deck and Linux support is a huge positive.
GoG Galaxy is great, but also doesn’t have a Linux client, which makes it less convenient. Still GoG has so many gems not available anywhere else that I am willing to split my game library just for the classics.
- Comment on Do you prefer to buy games on Steam or GOG? 6 months ago:
Sounds like you had one specific issue, which escalated to this level.
