Me too. I bought the first quest before Facebook acquired it. Now that Facebook/Meta own quest and stuff … I’ve been staying away from VR for now.

I’ll definitely be doing my best to get one as soon as it’s available. Everything about it sounds hype.

“you get a sense of pride and accomplishment”

I’m partially joking but it it can be satisfying to figuring out and executing the series of patterns in good timing.

The thing is thinking that you’re so cool for it :P … I never see an issue with someone enjoying the game for the story or whatever else.

Some say you don’t need it, but I personally use this plugin: https://github.com/jeffreytse/zsh-vi-mode

but I also use this: https://github.com/zdharma-continuum/fast-syntax-highlighting for syntax highlighting and it makes it more readable too.

I’ve always liked vim but one thing that I really loved about it was when I started using vim mode in zsh.

Being able to just navigate through commands in my terminal and easily highlight and edit and all that … it’s so good.

I’m scared to hell of fixing it, but you’re probably right. It’s better to lose my phone to repairs than lose my data to a random individual!

Oh, the last one I took to the shop was my Pixel 7 with water damage. I traded it for a Pixel 10 now.

Yeah :/ my password manager and everything is accessible! I have no defenses!

The thing is my phone is already in a dire state by the time they get it. I can’t pre-emptively wipe my phone :(

Also, how come they need to unlock the phone to replace the battery … like, I guess they’re running diagnostics?

But like, can do that without getting access to bloody everything on my phone?

They can’t afford to pay so many mods! You’re crazy! /s

Now, if you’ll excuse him … he’s buying a new yacht.

Supposed to do the end game content for Expedition 33 but I’ll probably just be doing rounds of Megabonk.

There’s a Chinese series called Reset that has this concept that I really liked too.

lol, just to fit in with everyone 😂

I can’t tell the diff in FPS performance. I wish I could.

When I got my PS5 and played some games I was like, wow the future is here! Turns out I was playing PS4 games. Also I turned on and off ray-tracing for SpiderMan and couldn’t tell either.

It’s total confirmation bias to me that a Reddit mod would be an unhinged maniac :P

Seriously though, this is really f–ed up. Too much power to a nobody.

I’d say they should include an Alien Earth level but Disney would sue them out of existence.

My friend told me that one of her former colleagues, wicked smart dude, was talking to her about space. Then he went off about how there were pyramids on Mars. She was like, “oh … I’m quite caught up on this stuff and I haven’t heard of this info. Where can I find this info?” The guy apparently has been having super long chats with whatever LLMand thinks that they’re now diving into the “truth” now.

Last thing I saw of him was a short stint in The White Lotus – Season 3. Probably my least favourite season of the series … it definitely could have used more Sam to make it better :D. He also has this one monologue or something that is just too good.

I self-inflicted some pain like that for me as well.

I got close to the end of Act 2 and my friend said that the difficulty was too easy and I was breezing pass everything and to switch it to Expert. Well guess what. I didn’t level, upgrade or put my Pictos in a way to deal with it. So most of my boss fights turned from a close-win into 45 minutes of me dying a lot. Like, I’d be one-shotted so often.

I then took some time and then cashed in some Lumina for stories and then actually put some strats in and went through the skill tree. I think it was worthwhile in the end but it totally changed the experience for me.

I really wanted to like the remakes.

Playing the FF7 remake felt really dated in terms of a lot of things. After playing God of War and others, the cinematics felt cheesy and less cohesive now in FF … I didn’t care for much of any of the voice acting. A lot of the side quests didn’t fit “in world” to me. The heck do I care about some lost kittens? Why am I figuring out this time-wasting crane control? … Also, not sure what’s going on with the “ghosts”. I didn’t like the combat and found it annoying. Which is strange because I enjoyed FF15: The backstreet boys edition and even Guardians.

On the positives, I felt if I could take a screenshot of any part of the game and sent it back to the younger version of me … My mind would be blown. I’d just stop the game several times to just admire the scenery and the look.

Everyone loves FF 7 remake and all that and I know I’m in minority but it put me off Rebirth. I’m happy other people enjoy it now though. I just wish I was one of them.

“Le Grill? What the hell is that?!”
