Capt. Wolf

I just started playing Terraria again for the first time in a few years. TMODLoader is now a supported extension of it, so there’s a ton of extra content and difficulty modifiers to play with. Having a randomly generated world with a mess of new and unknown stuff definitely scratches that exploration itch.

The steam fall sale is going on right now.

I wouldn’t say “very ugly.” I think it looks fine, especially for a game that’s been in development for 11 years.

It has a lot of jank, but considering what the game does, I think it does it exceptionally well. Especially considering you can pretty much count the number of open world, randomly generated zombie apocalypse games on one hand.

Bring it to Steam and I’ll care. Alan Wake is one of my favorites series, but I refuse to give Epic money because of their exclusive bullshit.

“Con” has brought us such deliciousness as “con queso” and “con carne.” It has my vote.

Gotta love fucking over the consumer twice! They’re gonna get, what, $5 out of a class action? $5 and a burned out cpu, yay!

Fuschia on black is very hard to read for some people. Personally, even with my glasses on, the text fuzzes out. It’s very jarring

One for me, but I’m off today and already enjoying a Mai Tai!

Who uses Adblock??? They’re a bullshit, sellout company.

You install Ublock Origin instead and add the annoyance and adblock-blocking lists…

There… Now you don’t need to watch ads to watch your ads. Your news and recipe sites no longer have an ad every other sentence. A couple pages still refuse to load because you have an ad blocker. You learn to live without them. Your Google searches have sponsored sites filtered out.

You tell your mother that you can’t read that article and it’s not being represented on any other news platform, and suggest it’s possibly not all that reputable. She tells you she got it from Facebook. You tell her to stop getting all her news from Facebook. You realize maybe social media is a symptom of a sick society too involved in each other’s daily doings. You delete your social media accounts and block the pages.

You decide you want to read that book from the Wikipedia page your friend recommended. You open up Libby to see if your local library has a copy of the book. They don’t, but they have digital copies of several other books by the same author. You make a note to check them out later, as they’re not about the topic you were looking for. You search Google for the book title followed by .epub download and find several sites that have the book your looking for. You put it on your tablet, then put on your shoes, and go out to the park to read your new book. While you’re walking, your coworker texts you to complain that your supervisor fired him for plagiarizing work off ChatGPT again. He doesn’t understand how they could tell.

You get to the park, sit, and enjoy your book for a while.

“You don’t buy the beer here. You rent it!”

That’s a bummer, but also not entirely surprising when you consider Half-Life 3…

From what I understand, they basically have a very open work structure. People are free to work on what they want, when they want. They actually are against high workloads and do everything they can to prevent employee burnout.

I can’t say if that extends beyond the development teams to other departments like server management, but everything I’ve ever seen about them says they’re all just in it to have fun, make cool shit now and then, and of course make tons of money. The fact that their sales platform basically just prints money helps support that culture, obviously.

“Alexa, all lights off.”

Now, talk to me about going up the stairs from the basement alone…

Everyone knows that’s how the evil clown, ghost, or whatever basement demon living in your house gets you…

Grabs your ankles ands pulls you right back down…

The whole cast is amazing. I had no idea they had so many people from TNG on there until my wife told me last night…

Let’s also not forget Keith David… That man could talk me to sleep any time…

Shut up, brain! When we were 9, you didn’t even know what cringe was!

I look forward to the day when I pass my screen name on to my son…

And, to this day, I still crave that super thin wedge of pizza once in a while.

Next update: Well, we never actually removed the feature because it’s already irrevocably engrained in the file system. It can’t be turned off or opted out of because it’ll cause your hard drive to explode. Instead, we’ve buried it so deep that only hackers, malware, the government, and Facebook will be able to make use of it.
