I enjoy both. I switch between fiction/fantasy heavy and science heavy. Sometimes I’ll do a run or a series of one and get a hankering for the other. Usually I prefer my sci-fi more science than fiction. I love the expanse and the martian for example. But I also enjoy the culture and the Polity books which are more fiction than hard sci-fi.
I’m pretty sure the anachronisms in a knights tale are deliberate to give modern audiences more appreciation for the feel of things for the locals of that time period. Great movie. Always forget it’s really long though.
Well shit, I was playing dying light 2 yesterday. It’s mildly better than the other game I’ve been playing Pathogenic which is a rogue lite where you play a pathogen trying to kill the scientist who made you in a lab.
Think I’m pretty screwed either way to be honest. At least I’m dying light 2 I get to be human and do parkour so that’s cool.
Steam OS? Or emulators? It’s not like an old laptop is going to be running modern games
Could you just put Linux on the old machine instead? I suspect that would be safer.
And party on dudes.
This looks fascinating. It also has a demo. I’ll be giving it a go. Thanks for sharing.
I can touch type pretty well. Dyslexia not withstanding. I learned during the MSN messenger years.
I can also blind swipe text on my phone with not totally atrocious accuracy. Still need to proof read them before sending though.
What system is that? That’s a lot of d10s.
Gotta love the shiny click clack rocks. Such an easy rabbit hole to fall into.
You need the algae food paste thing until you can pick up another crew member or train someone up on the learning station.
Just another chipping in on the Eufy solar. I’ve been pretty impressed so far with a few minor niggles.
Generally it works well, connects nicely to the repeater and rings ok. Solar works great no issues with battery power on our south facing front.
The main selling point for me was no subscription or remote server connection.
It’s annoying if it loses connection to the WiFi. I’ve actually turned the security mode (which makes it scream if taken off the wall without turning that off first in the app).
The automation in this one is pretty good. I think the pawns are maybe a bit smarter than Rimworld so you don’t need to manually direct them as often.
Having a bit of a story mode also helps as you’ve usually got a mission objective you can come back to.
I’m like 20 hours in now and still very much enjoying myself.
I’ve been playing space haven. It’s Rimworld in space with some more story. The basics are a little more complex but at least on normal difficulty staying stable seems easier once you’re established, it doesn’t have quite as much depth I don’t think. I’m really enjoying it. Good cool music. Fun boarding mechanics. Great little game.
Portal 2 is so good. The co-op is amazing as well.
Thanks, damn autocorrect.
Drowning in a small space like underwater caving. I’m a bit catastrophic (claustrophobic). Normally no issues with water but the thought of being trapped somewhere small and watching it full up with water terrifies me. Safe to say I am never going caving or swimming in caves.
Oh and the apparently inexorable march towards fascism in the UK and the west is pretty bad too.
Is the twist that they are actually in hell? Cuz I guessed that about halfway through the first episode when every single character was an insufferable ass. Which coincidentally is also why I stopped watching. Very American humour I think, it felt similar to Parks and Rec, another one which everyone seems to love that I bounced off hard.
Seconding this with caveats.
Masturbation is normal, natural and healthy (reduces the risk of prostate cancer in men). Unless it isn’t, it’s not healthy when it is an addiction and masturbation is getting in the way of life. If you’re not seeing friends or missing work or school because you’d rather watch porn and jerk off then that’s a problem. A therapist would be the best person to talk to about that if you do have an addiction.
If you’re just masturbating a few times a week then carry on, enjoy yourself and don’t feel guilty.
Whistle with my fingers, took a good few weeks of practice over one summer blowing spit all over my fingers but eventually I learned. Still a really useful skill today.
