I just found out about Tabletop Game Shop Simulator and I found it to be a nice alternative to TCG Card Shop Simulator. It only has a demo currently, but it’s been pretty fun to dip my toes into the shop simulator genre of games.

I enjoy k, but I never go for k-holing, I like small amounts every so often. I suppose I’d liken it to preferring to get a buzz from alcohol vs getting really drunk. To be honest, I don’t think I’ve ever k-holed before and I don’t really have any pull towards wanting to do it either.

That’s purely how Republicans work, when something benefits them then it’s perfectly okay, but once anyone else benefits then it’s suddenly the worst thing ever done by a human. It’s absolutely disgusting how they’ll do it to your face and then deny they ever benefited from it before.

Personally, I don’t always buy a friend a gift for their birthday. I generally only buy gifts when I find one that is something that I know would be special to the person receiving it. I usually happen upon gift ideas and don’t specifically seek them out. I feel like my friends sort of do the same.

As for having a gathering or a party, I’ve found that as you get into your 30s and beyond you kind of have to initiate it some yourself or if you’re like me and get anxiety from trying to plan my own birthday party you could ask a friend to help out with the planning.

Anyways, happy belated birthday!

Yesss! Thank you so much for doing this! You have no idea how good this makes me feel.

Same here, I dropped League of Legends when they added it as a requirement. I can sorta deal with a kernel level anti-cheat if it only runs while the game is running, but an always on kernel level anti-cheat is a no go for me.

Some games do have different behaviors for different enemies, I can’t really point to any one modern game off the top of my head. However, I do remember the first Half-Life touting that as a major feature and it being cool to experience back when that game first came out. I remember some enemies would throw your grenades back at you or fall back and regroup, some would just run straight at you, and others would attempt to sneak around and flank you.

I believe you have to first close Vanguard and then you can get BF6 to launch. If you want to play Valorant again you have to fully restart your computer as there is no way to successfully relaunch Vanguard after closing it.

I don’t know for sure, but I would assume this would effect people with League of Legends installed as well since it also uses Vanguard for anti-cheat.

His hands are too big.

Yeah, I figured it would probably be something more like that order of operations. But I’m also sure there is probably a clause in the agreement between dev and store that says they can pull your game for any reason without notice, so there’s probably nothing that can be done.

I do kind of wonder of any of these game devs could go after these payment processing companies for loss of income? I’m not a lawyer, but I’d definitely be looking into it if I was a Dev that has been effected by this.

Problem is, there probably isn’t any rebuilding again or at least not to the level of technology that we are currently at. The main reasoning for that is all of the easy to get to resources like metals and fossil fuels have already been used up. So if this doesn’t work out and another potentially intelligent species comes along it’s going to be even harder than we had it getting things started.

Never plug a random USB drive you find laying on the ground into any device you own.

Since when did keeping kids off of porn sites become everyone else’s problem and not the problem of parents? Oh, right, that’s just a bullshit reason to make accessing porn more difficult and a security risk since they can’t just make porn illegal.

At least with Team Fortress 2 they have always had dedicated servers you can host yourself. Most GaaS never provide a server that you can run and host yourself.

Republicans had control of the Senate when Obama’s last appointment came up and they refused to even allow for an appointment hearing to happen.

I always thought history has taught us that not paying your army is always a massive mistake. I suppose those in power at the current time probably didn’t do well in history classes and were likely even proud of it.

I’m strictly anti-religion, but I love this so much. I suppose the enemy of my enemy is my temporary friend and all that.

I love Pizza Hotline! First time I heard their music it took me back to the PS2 era of gaming. Their other album, Polygon Island, is one of my favorite music finds in the last year or so. Highly recommend checking out all of their music.

I’m sure there are exceptions for classified systems. Personally, I do believe all things developed by tax payer money should be released to the public including classified systems, given enough time has passed that the release of such information wouldn’t put anything or anyone at risk.
