Same.
I’d been starting to get into it when the Android release dropped and then I was cooked. Now between Steam/Android I’ve always got a run going somewhere.

No shade to my Ace friends intended. Totally possible to be horny for art or rock collecting or whatever. Doesn’t have to be a sexy thing.

The default should be “I’m horny” but unless I specify you have to guess who I’m horny for.
- Comment on Anthropic publicly releases AI tool that can take over the user’s mouse cursor 1 month ago:
Yeah this is one of those things where accessibility settings can probably get you 90% there but screenshots and machine learning can probably close the gap somewhat reliably (even if it’s much less efficient).
- Comment on Humane slashes the price of its AI Pin after weak sales 1 month ago:
If it was free and I just had to pay the subscription I’d think “Can’t my phone already do all this?”

If you can run 4k at high frame rates then sure but the performance hit can be huge and a lot of displays can only do 4k at 30Hz anyway which isn’t worth it when 1440p is usually an option.

In their defense many people are exceptionally dumb.
- Comment on 75% of all PS5 owners prefer Performance Mode according to PlayStation 3 months ago:
People think that frame rate isn’t very noticeable until you give them access to a toggle that lets them double it.
- Comment on I typically avoid online games but this is why I'm fine with it in Elden Ring 3 months ago:
I don’t really engage with the online mechanics in Elden Ring… Maybe I should I’ve put hundreds of hours into the game otherwise. I rate and leave messages but I’ve never summoned help for co-op or invaded people except for Varre’s quest.

I like a lot of FFXII even though I get why it isn’t as beloved as others.

It’s safe to sign while driving but only if you’re blind.
- Comment on Day 40 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots (Jedi Fallen Order) 3 months ago:
Performance was ‘okay’ on my RTX2080 but I had to return it because the EA launcher was breaking steam controller input which made it unplayable.

Google is stuck because they can’t actually improve user experience without threatening their revenue model.
- Comment on $500 aluminum version of the Analogue Pocket looks like the Game Boy’s final form 5 months ago:
Playing GBA games on the Steam Deck and then going back to a real GBA is kind of hilarious. The GBA screen is even worse than I remember.
- Comment on Capcom's slapstick zombie mall adventure Dead Rising is being remastered 5 months ago:
It’s kind of crazy how off the rails this series got later down the line.
- Comment on Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut - Launch Trailer | PC Games 7 months ago:
Besides the Sony account drama (I don’t care about multiplayer), anyone know how this actually runs performance-wise? I usually assume these ports scale well since it’s a PS4 game but Sony launches have been all over the place.
- Comment on Net neutrality is back as FCC votes to regulate internet providers 7 months ago:
That would require Congress to act and Congress is barely capable of accomplishing the bare minimum to keep the budget running so the entire world isn’t thrown into chaos. Asking them to do anything that actually protects consumer rights is going to take either an emergency or an extreme electoral shift.
- Comment on Low tech DHCP 8 months ago:
You could, but that information gets stale pretty quickly and is tricky to do with the ACLs.
- Comment on Low tech DHCP 8 months ago:
I want to criticize this but I have multiple production environments with no DHCP and the process for provisioning new servers is basically “Guess an ipv4 address and if you pick one that’s already in use the build will fail and you can guess again.”
This is arguably better which is a little embarrassing.

I’m quite partial to the basketball sized black sphere with a fuse sticking out of it.
- Comment on Factorio Friday Facts #397 - Factoriopedia 10 months ago:
I bought Factorio a couple years ago and played for about 4 hours. I thought it was pretty fun but I didn’t really get hooked or anything so it sat in my Steam library for a while.
Early last summer I gave it another go and something finally clicked. I probably spent a whole month doing nothing but play Factorio when I wasn’t eating sleeping or working. My wife was concerned. It was by far my most played game last year and it’s now probably one of my favorite games ever.
If you’re into programming or dev ops it definitely aligns with that mindset once you get deep enough in the game you start seeing the patterns and trying to optimize your factory design. But that sort of game isn’t for everyone.
- Comment on DEATH STRANDING 2: ON THE BEACH – State of Play Announce Trailer 10 months ago:
He’s a completely insane horny man that loves action movies. His games tend to be high quality and even when they aren’t good they are at least entertaining and try something new.
He may have gone full George Lucas at this point though where he’s so overhyped that no one second guesses him at all. Death Stranding had some weird shit even for Kojima. I wonder what he could make if his personality wasn’t so dominant in a game and it had some input from other creative visions to reign in his weirder ideas.

- Comment on What's your favorite game that you will NEVER finish? 11 months ago:
Finishing the main storyline can potentially block off whole questions depending on how you handle it. I usually progress it to a certain point and then stop.
- Comment on What's your favorite game that you will NEVER finish? 11 months ago:
TotK itself seems like it may have been DLC that eventually grew so large in scope that it became a full game.
- Comment on What's your favorite game that you will NEVER finish? 11 months ago:
Fallout: New Vegas.
Love the game, it’s potentially the best in the series. But I’ve hit the same game-ending glitch twice. Basically at a certain point an important faction decides to become completely hostile towards me despite me having positive faction rep and despite lots of tweaking with console commands to try to work around the problem.
I’d even restored a save from ten hours prior to triggering the big and still had the problem once I progressed a quest line.
Super frustrating. I’ve experienced a lot of the early game multiple times but never gotten to the end of any of the major quest lines.
- Comment on Zelda Producer Eiji Aonuma Doesn't Really Care About the Series' Chronology 1 year ago:
This seems fine. I don’t understand the desire to have an overarching chronology anyway. It’s pretty clear each game is its own world with little connection to the other series beyond recycling some of the same concepts.
It makes more sense lore-wise to just think of them as entirely separate universes with some direct sequels. Majora’s Mask is a direct sequel that takes place in a canonically different dimension anyway so they already introduced the concept.
