I have a few suggestions for the preliminary test payloads. :P

Man this looks so good. I should get my game updated and play more.

This was basically my entire experience of their album, Boxer.

In my case, it's the little thing that I can do to make the space I share more enjoyable. A measurable positive contribution that I can make to the house that benefits other people... and myself by extension!

I've found the ritual of caring for a home actually to be a very calming and pleasurable kind of work. I do my big clean every Saturday and it's pretty wonderful to sit down in the afternoon when everything is cleaned once again and there's nothing left to be concerned with for my whole weekend.

Same. It's a magnificent game.

Oh man. This reminds me of an amazing transcription of a piece by J.S. Bach. Originally written for violin and performed on the koto. Beautiful picture and a beautiful piece.

Boy I feel that though. I've had to fight through those days and they're always kinda miserable.

Hopefully you'll be able to kick it soon.

So sorry to hear that. Under the weather or other?

Oof. Yeah...

So very well deserved. His music is incredible and has been for years now.

A one-day slowdown is irritating. A one-month slump is terrifying.

With support for abolishing ICE growing and a bipartisan backlash prompting Trump to at least feign a more conciliatory approach in Minnesota, this is the moment to exert pressure. bit.ly/4aoo0an

Real talk, I loved FFX. And FFXII, come to think of it.

Still haven't played VIII, so maybe that'll be the next thing in the list. You're not the only person recently lauding it and I'm seeing that as a sign.

Pretty sure where I'm from a Fritos corn chip is a sign of bonding. Sounds all correct in my book.

True. No argument here.

True. Right now in the US, Untrained and Overpaid Goon Squad is one of the only market sectors actually expanding. So while repreprehensible, I can still understand the economic calculus being made here.

God, yes please. More of that.

Oh absolutely. I remember when the Epic store first came out there wasn't even a shopping cart feature to allow you to gather more than one thing at a time for purchase. I downloaded the store, but only to snag some games on Tim Sweeney's dime before getting them on Steam anyway.

I was gonna say. Steam is a monopoly but the value of Steam is so great that I honestly have a hard time thinking of anybody who could effectively challenge it.

24.01.2026 15:55 ๐Ÿ‘ 0 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Honestly yeah. That's what I'm waiting for. The minute there's a general use Linux distro that Valve puts out to make Steam that first class citizen, I'm nuking my Windows 10 install on my gaming PC.

Steam is just hands down a better product. It's not even close.

Note to folks outside of the US who are buying into the propaganda that Americans "aren't doing anything." People turned out today in -22 C weather for this protest, which was one (huge and wonderful and inspiring) action among many that happen every damn day.

I only lived there for a few years myself but for as much sass as I give them about bland food (it's not actually that bad) I did actually really love the state.

If anything this current state of affairs just reminds me why I love those people and how fiercely they protect their community.

Sounds like you may have dodged a bit of a bullet in that case. Still sucks, but I suppose there are cases where sticking it out would have been the worse option.
