If I didn’t need to have a profile there for work I wouldn’t. I had two jobs that were kind enough to tell me when I asked that they immediately passed on me because my resume had no LinkedIn or Facebook, and I deleted my Facebook a year ago.

The only thing I use AI for is generating character art for tabletop portraits and when the well is sufficiently poisoned I will probably go back to Pinterest.

SAY IT!

It’s funny, I own a switch and I would have bought the game (and I probably will still if the technical and QoL issues get resolved) but I’m emulating it better than the hardware can run it right now.

He’s been casually racist around most of the people in the office so I’m sure he’ll fit right in.

I like it more, but I’m a fan of the more classic Zeldas. It’s good, but it’s marred by the same technical issues that plagued the LA remake, and the lack of some basic QoL features like a Quick Select or Favorites wheel is bringing it from ‘great’ to ‘good.’

My dickhead boss quit to go be a cop. I hope I can get back on salary after he’s gone.

“READ A BOOK!”

Switched to Firefox in 2023 and it’s wild how much shit just works now.

It makes a lot more sense if you reframe it as freedom for rich white landowners in the 1800s to not have to pay taxes to King George, not so much for the peons, paupers and slaves.

Dropping $1600 on a new compressor so I don’t pass out while driving in 100+ degree weather. Fan-fucking-tastic.

Work still sucks, haven’t found another job, but we’re supposedly getting acquired by a larger company and that’s going to trigger a restricted stock unit payout. I’ve been here for a while so maybe I’ll get a nice chunk of change out of this debacle before I get fired.

I actually really like the SNES game, it is objectively not great though. You can’t even save, so emulation is a must unless you can dedicate an 8-10 hour sitting to it.

Particularly that it switches between top-down outdoors and a pseudo-FPS indoors, and the claustrophobic interiors and darker music give it a lot of charm.

“I’m especially good at defenestrating!”

So I know it’s a joke, but isn’t this why dietary antioxidants are good for you, is because they literally help inhibit the oxidation of your body?

Another kid with a baking soda volcano stole the show!

And they’re probably carving themselves a nice bonus out of the tax write-off for the studio closure.

I mean, let’s not forget that the early consoles had their own pitfalls, a period of gaming that spawned tropes like ‘Nintendo Hard’ and ‘Guide Dang It’ in order to, among other things, pad out the length of what we would consider an otherwise barebones game, and to sell time on their hints and tips hotline. I do feel like there was less bullshit in the past, but it definitely still existed.

I mean, there’s a number of reasons that might be the case, not the least of which being it’s a group activity, which is really beneficial for social creatures like humans.

Uncle Harry, don’t eat that!
