Enjoy your drink 😄 Hyvää juhannusta! Glad midsommar!

I was browsing my comment history and stumbled upon this so I decided to finally open the bottle of Besk. Very strange taste. I wasn’t expecting anything like this. Doesn’t taste similar to other supposedly wormwood infused liquors like absinthe or vermouth. I’ve never tasted anything like this. Sort of minty note in bitter flavor I can’t describe. This is certainly not my favorite bitter but if I was ever offered one I would happily drink it.

Can you give an example how that would happen?

The idea I had was just so ridiculously evil I just had to teil about it 😄

If you think about it the rock and tape hack can be easily prevented, but I’m not going to elaborate any further as to not give them more ideas.

So even if someone came up with a system whereby they expected you to watch an ad before the power would flow, you could always just plug in and walk away. How are they going to know you’re physically there?

How about a button located near the ad screen and speaker that you have to hold like at least 80% of ad duration. If you failed to reach 80% it would reset to 0 and show you another ad so you can try again.

I played it occasionally but, as you said, it wasn’t very interesting game for young children. I guess it was interesting only subconsciously (the vivid dreams I mentioned in the other comment). Maybe it would have been fun game if I were an adult at the time.

We didn’t really have arcade in our town but there were some coin-operated games around. I think it wasn’t very long period of time they had Polybius but I remember playing it occasionally during that time. I was quite young so I didn’t fully understand the gameplay and can’t really recall any elements of it anymore. Only thing I do remember is I used to have vivid dreams about it when I hadn’t played it for a while. That sort of made me interested to play it again every once in a while. Though I must have been terrible at that game so I don’t know why I even tried it that many times.

I didn’t really thought about it when they had changed the machine to different one. I would rather play the Street Fighter II or whatever they had put there instead because it was much easier game to understand. There have been occasional dreams I’ve had much later in my life about this game but other than that I don’t really think about it. Sometimes after having that kind of vivid dream I do think for a while that it would be nice to give it a try again but I don’t know if they have the game anywhere or if it’s possible to emulate via MAME.

What difference does the federation make in this case? Either way the personal data is in someone else’s computer.

Hmm. I have some small bottles of Snälleröds snapsar and one of them is Besk. I haven’t tasted it yet but do you know if it’s similar to bäska droppar? And is bäska droppar similar to that Malört bottle in the picture?

My hands aren’t particularly small either and I hate big phones. I like to use my phone with one hand most of the time so I need a small phone to hold it comfortably and to reach around the touch screen.

I’ve noticed even few millimeters of difference in width has great impact on how comfortable the phone is to use. Gesture navigation also helps and I think it was created out of necessity for bigger phones.

I didn’t like F Zero 99 because the controls felt different from original and it felt like there was either slight delay in steering or steering controls were too sensitive. Other than that it seemed like a good game and I would play it if the controls were nicer.

There’s this one playable character that doesn’t have to play on the beat but I don’t know if it’s very helpful since the enemies dance each their own way in the rhythm so you would have to pay attention to the rhythm anyway in order to attack and defend.

I like this game. Usually I don’t play a roguelike game many times because I think too much and it’s complex game anyway so it’s time consuming (I have the same problem with Civilization). This game forces you to act fast and not to think too much. And as in other roguelikes the party could stop any moment so you better keep just dancing while it lasts. It’s a bit difficult game at least for me. I have only completed the zone 1 so far.

Of course I don’t know if you would like it. If you can’t stand rhythm games at all then maybe it’s not for you, but staying on the beat is not really the difficult part of the game. The game has very nice soundtrack so it’s fun to dance around killing monsters.

Co-op weekend. I bought pikuniku last week and already played it through but this weekend I tried the co-op game and it was good. Also tried the bee simulator I bought on discount price. It wasn’t particularly good. Whereas playing Portal 2 and Crypt of the Necrodancer co-op was great.

I think I’ll buy that DLC too. Not that expensive and I really liked the Shredder’s revenge.

I have drunk a cup of ultra pure water. Taste wasn’t very different from tap water. I have no idea if it messed with my electrolyte levels much but seemed to be safe to drink.

No, I haven’t. I looked up a video of it and the fighting reminds me of TMNT arcade games which I like. I might give it a try some day.

I love simple controls or an elegant way to control simply. For example using one thumb to control two buttons simultaneously or the Super Mario Run control scheme where you only press on the touch screen, doesn’t matter where, and that’s it.

I hate it when in co-op game the other player’s actions can screw up the game e.g. moving the screen too far so the other player dies.
