Got one of these to replace my beloved custom Xbox controller I used for my PC a few weeks ago.
It’s pretty great! It feels almost as good as that Xbox controller, has a tidy charging dock, and is just as compatible with your games.

Saving a click or two is legit something many many software shops spend ungodly amounts of money and labor hours to do.
"people can still download your art from bsky and feed it into AI" if gamer behavior has taught me anything, just one extra button press is more than enough to annoy a MASSIVE amount of people into not making the effort

I got Detroit: Become Human in the Steam Winter sale and ended up being so enthralled with it that I finished it in a couple days.
Definitely going back to fill out the branching paths. Some of it was a little heavy handed but I loved it anyway.

So credit cards are just paying someone to borrow money from your future self? Time travel is way worse than I thought it would be.

Still one of the best JRPGs on the PS1, and what a great opening animation! Ear worm theme song helps it too.
Today is the 29th anniversary of #WildARMs on the PlayStation (and of the series as a whole)! This Wild West-inspired RPG features incredible music, fun puzzle-solving, and a stellar battle system. Check out our review below!

Jake Paul moved well and managed to annoy AJ for a couple rounds before some shenanigans with slipping on the mat.
Then, when it became an actual fight in round 5, AJ beat the hell out of him. A cannonball of a right to the chin in the 6th finished the job after Paul stuck his tongue out.

Really really hoping I’m a few minutes away from seeing Anthony Joshua put Jake Paul out for a quick nap.

The temptation to go back to cheering for the Ducks primarily again is definitely there… I joined my family with the Leafs because I was getting too old and tired to watch their midnight games…
But man. These Maple Leafs SUCK. They suck so bad. They don’t give half a shit.

Boy you sure showed all 72 of those kids, huh? That weren’t even getting these surgeries you’ve invented to scare old people?
Fuckwits.
THIS is their priority when y’all can’t afford a can of soup anymore and your healthcare is about to explode in cost. Pathetic.

It is ethically sound to steal anything with generative AI included in it.
The thing that makes me feel insane about genAI is that while people are philosophising and splitting hairs and explaining themselves, there's no mention of how it came to exist at all!
It was made by stealing art from artists! Without permission, payment, or credit! It's ethically dead on arrival.

I work for the lottery, so there’s lots of “if I won…” conversations people have.
I feel like there might be something wrong with me… People always talk about how they’d need to still work, and I’m just thinking of kicking back everyday and enjoying games and other hobbies 😬

I’ve only decided on two of the decks I’m playing for some MTG Commander this evening.
I finally got around to revamping my Wick deck. It’s mostly changelings now, so I’ll see what it can do when everything is a rat AND a snail!
Goldbug too. Haven’t played that in a while.

Some of the most meaningful memories I carry of friends are moments where they’ve celebrated with me, or expressed pride in turning my life around.
It might be slightly uncomfortable at the time, but definitely tell people you’re proud of them and their accomplishments when you are.

Normalize celebrating the victories of your family, friends, and acquaintances, whether large or small. We’re all out here in the trenches together. Some do have it worse than others, yes, but we’re all struggling in some way. Society can only thrive if we all support each other.
