Once you take high school English your teacher will tell you not to write “in my opinion” in front of everything you write because it is unnecessary. Of course it is your option, you said it.

Someone with basic logic can extrapolate from that that if someone says something like “Fallout 4 is bad” that is clearly someone presenting an opinion and not an objective truth.

I just installed Linux Mint for the first time. As a life long Windows user it’s more intuitive than Windows 11, the install and setup was easier than I’ve ever had doing a fresh install off windows, and I was able to connect to my media tower (still running Windows 10) faster and with less hassle than using a Windows machine.

The only thing that was more difficult was having to look up where to find the setting in Steam for “please provide me Linux versions of games that don’t officially support it.”

Sure, but then do a simple search first and then you can engage with other people with “Guys, I just learned that some people can smell ants!”

Gotta love how they see a video talking about it, with comments talking about it, and their first step is to post on Facebook asking about it before doing a simple search on their own.

Lemonade bursts from the wizard’s hand and flows into the shape of a hammer that will strike the target for 3d8 physical damage. It will continue to strike the target every round for up to 1 minute or until the caster loses concentration, at which point it collapses into a pool of lemonade.

Still though, as a thought experiment, imagining a world where tomorrow, Steam is owned by Microsoft, it’s… interesting, to say the least. In the most horrifying way possible, but interesting nonetheless. Quite frankly, I can’t imagine anything worse happening for video games. Like to me, this is what a video game apocalypse sounds like.

Yarr. ☠️

One of these things is not like the others

Ya, Reddit is the fucking worst.

Lets use base Pi and put an end to that infinite digit bullshit.

What the fuck is G?

A base 4 number system has 4 numbers in it: 0, 1, 2, and 3.
After 3 the next numbers are 10, 11, 12, 13, 20, 21, etc.

A base 10 number system has 10 numbers in it, 0 through 9.

Hexadecimal is base 16: 0-9 followed by A-F

The alien using a “base 4” number system does not have a single digit for the number “4”. They represent four of something with the number “10”, so for them, their four digit number system is “base 10”.

Geography is green

Deeds are written on paper. The real deed was inside the tree all along.

I’d put leap day with the Summer Solstice, split up the extra days.

New year’s 2: Electric Boogaloo

BGG is user reported game length and weight. If you’re learning the game you’ll need to plan for it to take a little longer, as the times usually represent experienced players.

I would suggest grabbing your phone and quickly looking up the game on BGG before you start to see its length and complexity rating. Would take less than a minute and would give you a broad idea of what you’re in for.

Going by BGG Terraforming Mars is a 2 hour game. New players learning the rules and building engines instead of pushing objectives can lengthen the game, but 4 hours is pushing it and there’s either a problem with AP, people not paying attention, or people not taking their turn.

If that’s regularly the case I can see why OP doesn’t want to play longer heavier games. 2 hours of Terraforming Mars is fun, 4 hours is a slog.

I use the times on BGG, as they are submitted by users.

Fahrenheit measures how people feel, Celsius measures how water feels.
Kelvin measures how atoms feel.

Why does it have to be more of the same shit that everyone hates now?

If everyone hated it it wouldn’t sell. There’s plenty of other things being made as well, I haven’t played Sands of Time but I would guess the God of War reboot is a similar genre.
