    I feel bad for calling in sick because my department is horrifically understaffed and 1 person not showing up for work increases the workload of everyone else by about 50%. And since it’s a hospital, it’s not like we can just continue working like normal and let the company eat the profit loss; if our department is not working at 100% then innocent people’s health suffers.





  • Clunky but still fun. It ends up being a mostly mouse-based UI if you’re like me and constantly forget which deck button is mapped to which hotkey (it doesn’t help that there are 3x as many hotkeys as there are steam deck buttons), and you’re going to want to use the trackpad as your mouse. As a result I ended up feeling a lot of strain in my right hand while playing in handheld mode just from the sheer amount of APM my poor thumb was burdened with while the rest of my right hand was supporting the weight of the deck. The game runs like a dream though.







  • Genuine question for the homies who have played Spider-Man 2: did they write Miles to be any more interesting? I liked Spider-Man 1 Peter’s dialogue and jokes, like, a lot. I enjoyed playing as Miles in his own game, but I thought the character was boring, just, so so boring. Especially in contrast to Spiderverse’s version of Miles. I haven’t bought 2 yet, is Miles more fun to listen to this time? Could I enjoy Spider-Man 3 as a full Miles game if I thought that the Spider-Man: Miles Morales game had a disappointing protagonist?


  • In a fit of nostalgia I bought Yugioh: Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution. I watched the original show as a kid and played the game at recess, but never went any further than that. The game was on sale for a couple bucks on steam.

    I gotta say, this is a great amount of content for the price (again, I bought it for like 5 bucks). You can play through the show's storyline (every season) with all of their dumb little decks, and after every duel, you unlock a "reverse duel" where you can do the same fight but from the antagonist's perspective. If you complete all of the duels involving a particular character, you unlock their "challenge duel" where they use a themed meta deck with actual combos and interesting win conditions. Because this game has every season of the TV show, there's at least a hundred different characters you can fight like this. Every time you win a duel you get some of your opponent's cards and money to make your own custom deck. The online is dead though, which is fine, I'm just playing this to relive my childhood watching the show.

    I've been kinda hooked, even though I haven't been a Yugioh fan since 4th grade. I feel like a kid again. I just wish the Pokemon TCG or Magic: the Gathering had a modern game with a story mode like this.



  • I really wish Baldur's Gate 3 had a shared party inventory. It's already partway there, I can still move a potion from Astarion's inventory to Shadowheart's inventory now matter how far apart they are. It'd just be nice if I could save a few minutes of inventory sorting if everyone just pulled from one mega inventory that added everyone's encumberence together. The way its implemented now just adds several unneccessary steps that don't even matter because of the magic pocket system.





  • Yup, light beers are great for college parties and outdoor drinking games. Cheap and you can drink literally all day without geting too drunk or bloated which is kind of the point of the product. Witbeers, lagers, etc are for when you actually want to get drunk off of a few beers and enjoy the taste. I think that anyone who genuinely compares the two have never actually been invited to a party where they serve alcohol or they just want to feel smugly superior about something and chose beer consumption of all things haha
