Twin stick shooters/bullet hell games are different though.

And I found enter the Gungeon before Nuclear Throne, and somehow was always drawn back to Gungeon. Blazing beaks was fun though.

Any suggestions? I love brotato, but have struggled to find others I like.

Ones I haven’t liked: Soul stone survivors, death must die, nordic ashes.

if things continue more and more towards enshitification, I do care, I hope it doesn’t happen

Inevitable I’m afraid and quite far progressed in many industries. The sad part is that it doesnt even matter if we refuse their product. There are more than enough people willing to keep paying them billions.

I’ve progressed quite far in the technical science part of my job. I’m at the top end of the graph and encouraging my junior staff to simplify their language and message. Some things absolutely need technical terms, but they don’t need to use overly complicated words to say “this has moved up” or “this thing is bad”. More often meaning gets lost in using euphemisms instead of being clear about the message.

I’ve moved up the management role as well and really can’t bring myself to move from the bottom end of the meme graph. Management really has its own language so they can say lots of words in meetings with very little meaning. We’re in the business of doing shit…are we going to do shit or not?

If that happens: Don’t watch shit and certainly don’t pay for shit.

Even if nothing good is made for years, I guarantee there are millions of hours of undiscovered movie and series content for you to find in older releases. These companies are going to consolidate more and more, and will churn out sequels, spin offs, low effort movies, AI trash and easy cash-grabs. We need to not watch that shit and let these companies die. Pick the indie movies. Pick better quality older stuff. Wait for however long it takes for the industry to get over its unacceptable enshitification.

Games have the same problem. It is your responsibility to not pay for this micro transaction hell.

WTF does it mean? Are we doing the project or not??

People would end up skipping it anyway when they rush to respawn.

Breasts for eyes

The choice of Linux distro is a major battlefield. You couldn’t have gotten to any answer that wouldn’t invite complaints.

This is the way.

Tried 5 but it got too floppy.

No he doesn’t. There isn’t space for him. I’m in the car with 4 friends smoking weed and fapping already while he checks the engine.

Your mechanic sits on your car smoking weed and fapping?

Kramer? Dat you?

You get big electricity bill. They get free data to sell.

What’s the downside for them?

Here’s everything you need to know about being grown up: Nobody cares, and you’re on your own.

If you’re a kid and eat a trash diet, skip school, don’t take your medicines… someone will care. As an adult you could literally go outside in your underwear in the rain right now and eat mud and no one will stop you. As long as you’re not hurting other people or breaking their things, no one cares. As an adult no one cares if you eat cake for 3 meals a day, spend all your money on Funkopops and refuse to ever shower or get a job…and as much as kids might think this is a good thing, it actually really sucks.

It’s all meaningless anyway, so my purpose is to appreciate the joy of what is in front of me and enjoy my existence while it lasts.

There are so many bullshit alerts and messages and prompts and popups that come up on my work computer. I do eventually lose interest in reading them.

I’ve just seen a YouTube video about this recently. It was good, worth watching.

Depends on the definition of cheating. Here are a couple of ways in which I “cheat”:

I didn’t have the skill to progress beyond 4BC in Dead Cells, so I downloaded someone else’s save file with all items unlocked.

If I hit a wall in Silksong to the point that it starts to put me off the game, then I look up a walkthrough to see where the nearest undiscovered bench is or where to fine the thing I’m looking for.

For any game if I end too frustrated by a boss, I’ll watch a YouTube video to learn the attack patterns and avoid repeatedly dying to learn them. This is especially true for roguelites where I may have to cross 3 levels to get to a possible chance at a boss, and then get killed.

In FTL I used to copy out the save files to allow me to save scum if I died. The game is a roguelite and doesn’t allow loading saves in case of mistakes of death…so this is a workaround to save scum.
