I’m sure trump will bring this up the next time Timmy is in town to give him another little trophy or for movie night.

Chicken Little grew up.

I’m not the OP here, but while the DS games are not everyone’s cup of tea, which is fine, I think DS2 is an SS tier game and was my favorite of 2025. This game had me feeling all kinds of big emotions. It’s great. And the gameplay is very tight.

Tim Cook giving trump another little trophy: “OK sure”

I’m running a 1070.

They still have the AI shit that looks at your posts to try and determine if you are an adult.

Fuck that.

Honestly, my PC at this point plays FFXIV and that’s basically it. And I’m OK with that.

Me to my 10 year old gaming pc: “I guess it’ll be another couple of years, buddy.”

I use NextDNS for my phone (pihole in my house) as the service can block ads on any device. I think I pay $20/y for it, and that’s worth it to me.

Simple and easy: Mint.

I installed Linux on my PC this week, so yeah.

This type of justice is coming to a United States near you!

Me, drinking yet another Dr. Pepper Zero: “Uh oh.”

Based on what toady Mike Johnson and trump have been saying today/yesterday about how the GOP should control elections, I have a lot of worry that there will never be any more “good guys” elected.

Little Rocket Lab is like Stardew + Factorio. It’s chill and fun.

OK, cool, thanks. I’ll check it out!

I tend to like Zen browser. It looks and feels a bit different, but to me that feels refreshing.

Meanwhile, after installing Linux on my laptop last week and getting that set up, I’m in the process of backing up data on my desktop to do the same soon.

And what are the good non-github sites these days?

Counterpoint: Someone can play up through Stormblood without having to buy anything.

But, yeah, I agree. I don’t really want to think about how much I’ve spent on this one game over the last 12 years. But roughly spitballing:

• ARR, Heavensward, Stormblood, Shadowbringers, Endwalker, Dawntrail…I’ll say that’s 6 x $40 (not accurate since I bought special editions for some and moved from PS3 to Pc so that’s an extra cost there, too): $240
• $13/m for 11 years (I’ve played ARR since launch but there have been some times where I turned off my sub for a little bit so I’ll just knock off 12 months): 13 x 12 x 11 = $1,716
• Various Mogstation purchases, roughly $40?
• Total for me with this napkin math: $1,996

Woof. But, I do love the game and spent all weekend playing it just now. So there’s worse things to spend money on.

Currently the best investment is in gas mask manufacturers, unfortunately.
