Where the hell are you finding an 8.5% ROI in this economy??

Why choose one country? I’m selling everything and buying a boat.

This post made me think about Cooking Comically for the first time in about a decade.

Assuming you’re using Firefox as a mobile browser. Hit the three little dots on the top right, scroll down and hit settings. Near the bottom under advanced there should be an “Open links in apps” option. Set it to never.

Doesn’t matter. There’s no reason to not have nipples, and going down the evolution rabbit hole to change that isn’t worth the random mutations that are more likely to just straight up kill males during development or something. In biology fitness just means the ability to successfully reproduce, not actually who’s stronger or more efficient. Your entire body is built on the concept of, “good enough to get the job done.”

That’s the thing with natural selection though, as long as a trait isn’t deleterious and it’s common enough it’ll generally stick around. There’s no pressure for males to not have nipples.

+1 for a tentative Overcooked suggestion but only if you think you and your cousin won’t strangle each other in a high stress scenario. I can’t play the game with my wife because she’s too goofy and I’m too serious.

Bread and Fred looks like a lot of fun but I haven’t actually played it yet.

Diablo 3 was fun playing couch co-op and reminded me more than a little bit of playing Gauntlet in the good old days.

Close enough when your actual database system is written in fucking COBOL.

Nope sorry, haha!

A coworker set the break room on fire by microwaving her lunch for 30 minutes instead of three. No idea how you forget your lunch is in the microwave, let alone for half an hour, but hey I got to go home early.

Oh wow, two aspects of my gaming history I would’ve never expected to cross paths. Definitely giving this a download!

How’s GB Studio for making VNs?

The amount of effort it takes to circumvent Denuvo and EA’s always online malarkey largely make it not worth my time, but it was a consideration!

You’ve got great taste in games Atticus! A lot of people had (valid) complaints about this game but I still enjoyed it quite a bit. The story was decent, the characters were enjoyable, and it felt like a proper Star Wars romp. Plus I’m a sucker for a good poncho and a cute droid buddy.

Here’s hoping Jedi Survivor gets a non-DRM release at some point, I’m not getting an EA account just so they can checksum my game every time I mouse over the icon.

Last time I tried the Feynman technique I was escorted from the building for impersonating a professor.

Seriously though, back in college I used the Leitner system until I was comfortable enough with the info that I could explain it in layman’s terms. Though back in the day I just called the Feynman technique the rubber duck method thanks to my brother who was in IT and actually got everyone rubber ducks one year as a gag stocking stuffer.

Yeah I miss the feel of real paper in my hands but I have hundreds of books in this little black box and I like to reread most of them so it’s handy. Sometimes I’ll dust off my Kindle if I’m planning on reading for more than a few hours: the matte screen is a lot easier on the eyes.

That is a fun fact! I try to minimize the number of apps I have installed for that very reason, and the only things I have on my home screen are Moon+ Reader and my email, dialer, and texting apps.

Okay wait, how are Cyberpunk and Stardew both disappointments? If you’d mentioned Starfield I’d believe you but both those games are critically acclaimed and for good reason.

For my part, I’ve been playing No Man’s Sky and I just restarted Tears of the Kingdom. I might dig into my retro library and start up Golden Sun though, it’s been a while and I’m due for a replay.

The only thing I can think of that would be easier would be swapping to an e-reader/app with a built in dictionary function. I use Moon+ Reader myself, but I don’t blame you if you want to stick to physical books.

Manly Guys had a great comic about that particular spirit.
