Sounds tedious… I would probably get burnt out as well :p

Sad to hear, Mafia 2 was at the time it released my favorite “gta” type game and one of my favorite cinematic experiences in gaming. It absolutely had a less is more attitude rather than ubisoft bloat… There wasn’t that much to do, and it was very linear which was a strength that made the characters and story feel well presented at all times for me. Haven’t played it in ten years tho so might be a bit of nostalgia mixed in…

What type of ubisoft mechanics have they jammed into it, out of curiousity?

All of this (except the jello-o abomination) looks so good but the article barely explains what the hell is in it!

Never heard of half of these as a european, seems like very 50-70s US type food. I’m gonna have to make one of these at least lol. (The rumaki one looks so good)

Oo yes they are! This still exists in some restaurants in Spain. Honestly so good. Similar to profiteroles as well.

Great in general, limited by back and neck locking up… Trying to do so many things but I have to prioritize literally doing nothing as my back and neck are not in good shape and so I am a bit sad I can’t do everything I otherwise could… For example if I study math it is like studying with an egg timer in my neck, so I can’t afford getting stuck on problems as it physically punishes me lol. But I get a lot of other things done, I just have to settle for surface level and not deep dives that require spending hours in similar positions.

Just came from the doctor so that’s on my mind right now. But it is all from a source of excitement. If I wasn’t loving what I was doing I wouldn’t be bummed out by not being able to do it.

Very easy to get lost trying to answer countless questions without understanding the implications of searching for an answer in the first place! Research takes time and usually leads to more research, and while the article mainly uses the word research what I get out of it the most is really the value of acting with intent and awareness of why you ended up doing a certain thing.

Also, it really motivated me to actually start working on a small video tutorial series for a calculator I wanted to do but kept putting off in the name of “productivity”, so I think drafting a script for it will be tonights project. :)

What does this mean for me, a capital G gamer? /s

But seriously, will I still be able to earn gold in MTGA?

I found one selling benzos the other day, honestly insane that they aren’t moderating this because it wasn’t even slightly obscured…

Like I know you can buh drugs on literally any platform, but a music streaming service? Feels too far.

On the one had I’d love to be excited about the technology and on the other hand it is a privacy nightmare I know I will experience in my lifetime…

When tech reaches a certain point of adoption it is no longer optional for anyone wanting to actively participate in society. Try going without a smartphone these days for example, I did for a few years and I struggled with paying some bills, paying in popup stores that used apps for payment, managing certain subscriptions, communicating in platform specific chat groups (this is something you do out of necessity more often than you’d think…). Eventually, not having some level of BCI will probably not be an option anymore.

I really want to click things with my mind but I really don’t want people like Musk literally in my mind… Can I self host one? /s

Claude frequently finds itself pointlessly revisiting completed towns, getting stuck in blind corners of the map for extended periods, or fruitlessly talking to the same unhelpful NPC over and over

Me too bud… Me too…
