I’m still playing this game today. Undoubtedly my favorite game.

I do. I use a Pi-Hole at home along with an adblocker, but I’m not always home.

I’m fine with hack-a-day. YouTube requires me to sit through some ads, watch a sometimes que long intro, cut to the sponsors, more rambling, finally a couple of seconds that answer the title question, and then the obligatory “like and subscribe”. Nah.

The way they casually throw in a bazooka wielding character with zero introduction is just hilarious.

Not when it requires VR, it’s not. I know there are patches to remove the requirement, but the game was designed with VR in mind.

I’m glad you feel that way. Keep it up as long as you can.

gestures broadly at all things

Humanity in general. People are jerks. Maybe Agent Smith was right all along.

Other than that… Half-Life 3 ever being made.

The bottom of the top.

Completely off topic but as a European it blows my mind that gunfire resistance is a factor to consider when purchasing cars in America.

That ship, my friend, has already sailed.

Remember when HP made great printers? I still have an old HP Laserjet 1100 in use. When that one dies, I don’t think I’ll be buying any other printer.

Manjaro on my gaming PC, Xubuntu on a couple of lab PCs, Haiku on a very old PC, windows 11 at work with Xubuntu on a VM.

Portal / Portal 2

“Science Is Fun” is a great track, as are the end songs “Still Alive” and “I Want You Gone”.

I wanna be a cowboy - Boys Don’t Cry

Just pure sillyness, with a Lemmy cameo in the video.

Seems to me you’re on a good path. Keep it up.

Maybe you should read up on stoicism.

Allowing someone else’s action control your actions is a massive waste of time, let alone a great way to attract trouble.

I remember the scene where Sir Humphrey, explains why the UK must be inside the EEC in order to make a mess out of it. So good…

I must rewatch this, I feel I was too young to get most of the more subtle humour when I first watched it.

There are a couple of occasions where I watch someone else playing: when deciding if the game is worth buying (gameplay vs cutscenes) and when I’m stuck in a part of a game I can’t really google.

All I know about British politics I learned from “Yes, Minister” and “Yes, Prime Minister”, so I know for sure nothing will change.
