Let’s start a new TikTok trend: McDonald’s Tokenmaxxing.

Except somebody else needs to start it because I don’t and never will have TikTok

And if you don’t have a Steamdeck or other handheld, there is no shortage of 3rd party indie titles on the Switch. It’s pretty great for those.

DARE told so many lies. I was told that if I smoked weed, it would ruin my life and I would become a helpless drug addict. Then I smoked weed and that didn’t happen. Then they got me thinking “what else did they lie to me about?”.

I’ll probably be hung for this one but Disco Elysium.

And the thing is. I like text heavy decision-based games. Like I could go on and on about Shadowrun Dragonfall. But Disco Elysium was just so drab. It just felt like a slog of memorization, and when I gave up on trying to do that I was like “okay, I’ll just play and do whatever I feel like” the game punished me. Maybe people like that? I don’t know… Like… Maybe I like games for escapism? So playing some peice of shit alcoholic didn’t do it for me? It just felt like a depressing version of a good game. People kept telling me “you just need to keep playing it gets so good”. At like 6 hours in when it’s not good yet, you failed at good story telling and you failed at good game development. To each their own I guess.

They said the dystopian part out loud.

I love to shit on middle management as much as anybody else, but good managers are great. My manager worked his way up as a systems architect. He’s incredibly smart, very friendly, and always has my back.

What getting rid of middle management does is build a solid wall between the workers and the upper class. There’s no corporate ladder to climb. If you start at the bottom, you stay at the bottom. The people on top hire their buddies and other people in their class. This is like a drone strike on the shrinking middle class.

And it’s got “cool” right in the name!

Sure. Draw the cube for me and I will plot it’s path.

Totally thought the last line was going to be:

“for this phone to flop”

Either way, good poem.

Find your local tournament, get accepted by them. They will teach you new tech, be super friendly and accept you as one of their own. Then one of the TO’s will sexually harass and/or attempt to rape you. If it’s not a TO, it’s another member of the community.

Really weird and consistent shit.

I remember when I was a pre teen and I wanted a Limp Bizkit CD for Christmas, my mother said that the name of the band sounded vulgar and she wouldn’t get it for me. Instead she got me a Cherry Poppin’ Daddies CD… Smh

I’m sure it was never about the band name. She probably heard Limp Bizkit on the radio and later in the day heard “Zoot Suit Riot” and was like “I know what will make my son fit in at Middle School. Big band swing music”

Sigh…

There’s this band that I like called 3 - easy enough to Google if you search “3 band” - But if I’m driving in my car and I want to use voice commands to play music by them, well too fucking bad. I’m also not going to take my phone out of my pocket and look them up while driving. So I guess they won’t get the plays.

I miss having a CD player in my car with my sun visor CD slip.

This old Korean MMO called Nexus TK. I think it was Nexon’s first game (Arc Raiders). Picked it up in like… 1997? I played it very heavily for a few years on and off. When I say heavily I mean like 4-5 hours a day. It got bad at some points. Got off of it at times but always went back. I still pop on every now and then just to say hi to the hundred or so people who still play.

Yeah this is one of those ones like:

She’s not wrong, but also, she can get bent.

It does however set a precedent for other celebrities and people going forward so I’m kinda with her on this one. If there’s one person who can make a stink about this and have it matter, it’s probably her.

It would have been better if it was one of the likeable celebrities. Like Keanu Reeves.

But I guess you take what you can get.

You know when you see an advertisement for a casino, and they have a picture of a guy winning money? That’s false advertising, because that happens the least. That’s like if you’re advertising a hamburger, they could show a guy choking. “This is what happened once.”

Am I the only one using Connect?

Am I out of touch?

No, it’s the lemmings who are wrong.

Where my Smart Launcher crew at? Usually you guys show up when it’s time to shit on Nova.

Anyway, if you like the features an ease-of-use of Nova, and you are looking for an alternative, Smart Launcher all day. A played with so many of the other launchers mentioned in this thread before I found SL, and it really feels like the best to me. But that’s just like, my opinion, man.

This game is still a staple at LAN parties. And yes, LAN parties are still a thing.

I work for an org with ~1700 Surface Laptop 7 ARM deployed. They are actually really nice. Managing them with Intune is a breeze (including BIOS management), and Windows ARM is actually getting 3rd party app support now (Thanks, Apple!)

Yes, yes. Microslop, I know. But we are talking end user computing here.
