Never change, Miyazaki.

Y’all-Qaeda doing what it does.

How long did that last for ya, if you don’t mind my asking?

I’ve been in glasses/contacts since like 3rd grade? 5th grade? Somewhere in there. Always liked the idea of being able to wake up with perfect vision every day, but also wanted to wait for tech and techniques to develop a bit more. Figured there’s a sweet spot for the procedure where I’ll have the benefit during my squirrelly years.

Hitting them mid 30s now so I’m considering the procedure again. If I could get at least a solid decade or so before needing lenses again, feels fairly worth it. How has your experience been with it?

Because this is the Elden Ring DLC Hype Train, and we’ve given he courtesy enough. Homie should leave his foolish ambitions to rest.

Haven’t had a chance to hit em yet but excited to. Felt okayyyy if you were patient enough to play it slow. My problem in general is being greedy and trying to speed through, which usually does more harm than good.

Yeah Trial of Haste felt like a nonstarter for certain builds that weren’t minimaxed for DPS. Nearly had it once, being maybe 10s off the mark (which realistically means I could’ve had it) but not mad about the rework at all.

Hades 2 been hitting for me. Nice being able to feel like playing Hades for the first time again. Super Giant doesn’t miss.

I’m flummoxed for sure. I need a computer to be a bit of a power house, ideally well equipped for music production software and live performance, DJ software, graphic design/animation/illustration, and at least for the desktop gaming. Been in the market for a laptop so I can take at least the music & design production on the go, but damn I hate laptop shopping.

Unsuuuure if Linux is compatible with the graphic/music production software I’m working with, or if there are viable work arounds. Windows 11 looks like a dumpster fire I do not wish to support. I’d really like to avoid Apple as I have my own grievances there too. Windows 10 obviously seems on the way out.

Long story long, feeling a bit lost on how best to proceed. If anyone uses Linux for similar creative endeavors, would love to hear your roses and thorns on the matter. Certainly open to recommendations for a sturdy war horse of a lappy as well.

Bookmarking this page so I can learn modern sailing techniques. Audiophiles who sail the seven seas, please teach me your ways! My most hasn’t hit the surf in a hot minute.

Cross play would be sick – had a friend go ps5 instead of build a PC due to limited budget. Tried my best to say saving for PC will be way better in long run but here we are.

Pretty much this. I like to DJ, mostly a hobbyist over paying gigs these days, and have plenty of tunes ripped from the tube. Now I have the fun task of trying to replace everything with higher quality versions. Shitty rips are fine enough for a house party on a humble audio system, but proper venues with subs and high fidelity audio setup make it obvious you ripped from YouTube.

In a perfect world I would love to buy what I use. Problem is I would need an insane budget to grab what I want. I listen to a lot of a music.

Those were the days man…

Dumb guy so grain of salt, but my understanding is we’ll hear sentencing in July. Quite likely not spending time in prison (but I’d love to be wrong). I just hope it’s a harsher sentence than 34 wrist slaps, but I’ll believe it when I see it.

Refreshing to see something productive here though. Quite sick of the circus by now.

Woah, memories.

We grow up so fast.

Cheers! Stuff like this is wild. Might need to tinker a bit.

How was this made?

Uffda. My better half and I are living in apartments that are priced for college students and it’s still over $10k a year. None of that fancy shit. We have shared laundry machines but that’s about it.

Truly. It’s a bit bittersweet of news. To get the obvious out of the way, I fully support reclaiming housing for locals. They’ve had a tough go. Having housing gobbled up for private business is problematic everywhere, but especially on these lil island nations where tourism is huge. Gotta respect the locals!

Bittersweet, I was also in Maui earlier this year, at an Airbnb. It was a vibe. I always enjoy being able to live a bit more like a local when I travel. Usually nicer habitat than a hotel room. Having a kitchen while vacationing is so nice! Very easy to only eat restaurant food the entire time otherwise. Hotels and resorts bring a certain sort, and it’s nice being able to avoid that crowd sometimes too.

Hawaii is especially precarious because a huge part of their economy is tourism. On multiple occasions we were told “thank you for being here.” At the time, tourism was back up to about a 1/3rd its usual. Hit a boat tour that accommodates 45, with 15 of us on there. People in the industry need more butts in seats.

Ultimately, if I need to hit a hotel next time to ensure locals are able to live easier, so be it. Easy choice. I will miss the perks of catching a flat or condo tho.

Such a sorry state of state affairs.

I really gotta hit Outer Wilds. Comes up enough I’m beginning to feel embarrassed for having missed it thus far
