I had a stray thought recently that one of the best subtle ways you could help a kid succeed is by getting them a laptop rather than a tablet. Having persistent computer experience seems very useful until tablets start getting used in offices.

Just cripple it so games aren't accessible via GUI.
i haven't played 6 and the version of 6 on steam is apparently a kinda bad mobile port so i haven't still
It just has kind of weird redone art. Lacking a nostalgic connection to the original probably lessens its offensiveness, though.
The art is super tonally dissonant, I think. That might only matter to me, though.
Not just you
I wont buy it on steam because of it
Right, but @Neco we played it years ago + tend to read it deeply. I dunno if people who want to play an FF game or only care about the plot in a superficial way will care.

I just got dumped into Conan so far off the map I couldn't even see where I was.
I built a patio for the little desert building and plonked down a Wheel, a tannery, and an armorcrsfter bench for good measure
There's an extra cutlass and some other stuff in the chest under the stairs btw
@desc yeah I just got in and saw everything you did. I spent time getting hide and making myself some better stuff. Holy shit killing things with an iron sword is easier than with a stone dagger. Who knew?
I ran out of points though and I haven't learned rope yet or else I'd go get more slaves so instead I put two heads over the front door.
can you feel the struggle within?

@JacobkoshHey, you mentioned a speed mod for Sunless Sea. Did you ever have issues with the turn speed of your ship after applying the mod?
Nevermind, I risked an install and it works like a charm. If anyone's curious, I used the one I found from by googling "sunless sea speed mod" and it's the first result on the steam community forums.

Some days Blue wonders why anyone ever bothered making numbers so small; other days she supposes even infinity needs to start somewhere.
Playing Fallout 4 last night and going through the Boston Airport, I had the classical station on the Pip-Boy. Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 was playing, about halfway through the song as I started to work my way through the terminal and encountering ever-increasing amounts of ghouls.
It is almost perversely fun to kill ever-increasing amounts of ghouls while listening to Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 and syncing your shots to the music, silenced 10mm pew-pewing as they charge you and drop one after another.
And then pulling out the Fat Man and timing the launch and detonation to the final flourish.
So going and getting my taxes done today. Return is going to replace the current computer. It is literally as old as my car. I built this thing in 2009. I might do a prebuilt this time...
I guess I won't be playing FFXV. It feels like saying goodbye to an old friend who has grown distant now that he is increasingly fond of pursuits we no longer share, like huffing lead paint.

It looks like a really good deal but remember cheapo prebuilts like that usually have shit power supplies and heat sinks. Also does it say what the mobo is? If not you could be getting a trash mobo too

It is a mix of cheap and not cheap stuff, I literally grabbed the parts on pc part picker. The cooler is literally the same one I have installed now. I can swap out my power supply though. I have a bigger one in my current computer.

Friday's date with Woman #2 was goddamn amazing. We talked for like 3 hours, no uncomfortable silences, and there was definitely the electricity of attraction. I was so jazzed that on my way home I was blasting the soundtrack to Flash Gordon and doing some amazing singing. I'm really excited about going out with this girl man. I hope it continues to go well.
Sunday's date. Well. This was was Woman #1 and I knew that there simply wasn't that romantic vibe. And so after dinner I let her know that I thought she was super fuckin' cool and I totally wanted to still be friends. I really do! She took it well, and was cool with still being buddies. But damn man, I could see it in her eyes that maybe she was feeling it more than I had been. It tore me up. I was in a shit mood for the rest of the night and felt awful. I know it was the right thing to do. But damn.
Waters took the stage to accept his honor and proudly cribbed from his screenplay for Female Trouble: “I wouldn’t suck your lousy dick if I was suffocating and there was oxygen in your balls. I wrote that! Oh, we had dialogue then."

Checking some reviews on it and it seems to lean to issues with needing to flash the bios to a newer version to correct some Ethernet port issues. That and some have had issues with RAM slots.
Eh it's actually a good mobo. Still wary of psu and heat sink. But put it this way: if I was near a micro center I'd prolly buy it.
It is literally down the road from me. And I have straight up replaced whatever I need to. So I am not too worried. I will probably get and throw in a terabyte storage drive to.

A trainwreck once the story starts to finally move, but good while it lasts
Some people like it. I thought it was embarrassingly poorly written single-player MMO garbage, so yes, a JRPG
I dont!
OK.

That was one of the games that I disliked so much it made it where I didn't play JRPGs for a couple of years.

Statewide interlibrary loan is fucking amazing
Like, I thought it was impressive just being in a metro area with a couple branches of the same library
Plus they had a super padded penultimate dungeon and didn't explore like, a dozen different things, especially including the ENDGAME SPOILER area.

But I would like to remphasize, in addition to pacing issues and messy plot, that every moment of the game is acutely unbearable
