Nah. I'll always play what I find interesting but I'll go by price, not generation (as a non console gamer, what even is a generation?). Played lots of early access / new releases this year, but never spent over $25 on any single game.

Have people never heard of a tuna melt? This is just a tuna melt. The only crime here is the pineapple. But I guess if you're into that kind of thing it would probably taste good to you.

I don't think there was any noteworthy news in that time.

Just one. Playing two at once would be tricky, I'd need like a second computer or something. And switching back and fourth between keyboards really quickly would probably lead to lots of deaths.

I don't buy this. He's driven by his ego more so than money at this point. Influencing world events makes him feel warm and fuzzy.

This is c/patientgamers, so I assume that first reason wouldn't bother most of us here. I'm curious about the spyware assertion though. Were they caught doing something shady?

In those movies, the dumb ones are already shuffling about the street.

I typically pay $20 or less for my jeans. Anything more than that I consider a ripoff.

Or the third option, it's not that funny.

When it comes to black humour, people tend to have lower standards. I guess for them the shock factor is enough to carry the joke. But once you've seen enough black humour, the shock factor starts to wear thin. The shock factor should complement the joke, not be the subject of it.

Abiotic Factor. An absolutely amazing survival crafter. From someone who was sick and tired of survival crafters.

I'll be back in five moons, we're running out of mammoth meat (translation)

It's not compiled into Firefox ever. A binary blob is downloaded after the first time you activate DRM. So just don't activate it and it'll never be present on your machine.

If he didn't do it, he's a hero for enduring the bullshit the state is throwing at him.

Yeah, it's a tautology

If the person I will report to can't code, I pass on the contract

I get this, it's really frustrating to have a clueless manager. But to me, a bigger problem is the reverse.

I'd rather have a manager with no technical ability and excellent people skills, than a manager with excellent technical ability but no people skills. The latter is all too common in my experience.

This is awesome, I think I'd add to this:

Ask questions. Strike up conversations. Listen attentively. Be genuinely curious about people and ask about their lives. Do this to people of all genders, whether you're attracted to them or not.

That's why I only buy games on discount. That way I only have to play the inverse percent of what I paid.

Yeah, I actually agree. This is better for my wallet and mental health. But it was fun to get excited about these deals

I kind of miss the days where specific games were only on sale for one day. There's no excitement anymore.

Oh yay, I can get these games for the same price they've dropped to almost every month this year.
