Different levels of censorship, sometimes - mostly regarding blood and corpses

It’s useless for people with experience and actively detrimental for those without

Failing early is normal - your runs will get more consistent as you progress in the game across multiple days. And when they do, that’s when it really hooks you.

I’m switching between Blue Prince and some other games, but it’s still such a good time whenever I play it. But then again, I’m a fan of both roguelikes and puzzle games. Just didn’t expect these two genres to mesh so well.

To quote one of my favourite book series of all times (Mistborn): “There’s always another secret”.

Probably Nightreign - I’m a big fan of the genre and particularly Elden Ring, so I’ve been looking forward to it for some time. Plus it’s an opportunity to pull some of my friends into the soulslikes!

I’ve upgraded my CPU. It was the first time I’ve replaced a CPU on my own, only relying on guides on the internet. It was quite intimidating, but it worked out in the end and now I can play videogames that previously were too laggy or just couldn’t run on my PC at all.

The games in question are Elden Ring: Nightreign, Oblivion remake and No Man’s Sky.

I’ve also realised that an outdated CPU was effectively throttling my internet, because even though I had a gigabit connection, my PC couldn’t handle downloading stuff at full speed. So that’s lesson learned.

I wish we could join soon, but that’s also happening at the glacial pace

Funny how Parenti himself recognizes China as capitalist:

While the Chinese government continues under a nominally communist leadership, the process of private capital penetration goes on more or less unhindered.

Capitalism (good) Vs Capitalism (bad)

FTFY

It’s generally not okay to lick faces, either

And this is why you accept the furry stage as a win.

You might as well consider voiced and unvoiced “th” one phoneme in English, there’s like 1 or 2 pairs or words that actually depend on the distinction

Out of recent ones, Blue Prince

Those glasses can be made to prescription too, that’s neat

Bumblebees are fuzzy and cute. Wasps are assholes, though, it’s not just a meme.

That’s a lot of value per dollar, even if you bought it at full price

They’d rather remove Pluto from the list than add Ceres. This is clear discrimination!

“Pink tax” is a thing, though. Not just in North America.

I find the concept of ethnicity to be weird and fuzzy at best. Like, even within my own country there’s a whole bunch of different cultural sub-divisions (not talking about the russian army, obviously). West of Ukraine almost speaks a completely different language from Kyiv residents and might have more in common with Poles or Hungarians in terms of cultural background.

I think it’s absolutely valid to claim Internet as your cultural background, but the label of “ethnicity” is not defined well enough to use it that way and people love to argue semantics.

Now we’re getting somewhere. Except it’s Google, so will probably get enshittified the moment it’s available to anyone else.
