    What game did you want to like but couldn't?

    Elden Ring: Nightreign I ended up soloing in a game that was designed to be played with others because playing with others was a more grueling experience than soloing.

    The COVID-19 vaccine in retrospect

    You know, I almost considered getting the vax after I was told it would turn me into a lizard by the anti-vaxxers :D. I caught covid before they even had a vax out for it, and saw no need to get a vax for something my body could fight off. To be honest, I've had sinus infections worse than...

    What controllers do you like/dislike and why?

    I dislike any controller that can get stick drift. If it doesn't have hall effect or TMR sticks, it's junk. I own an 8 bit do ultimate and a flydigi vader 4 pro, both are solid controllers. Both are around $60-$70 MSRP, which is roughly the same price as a name brand Sony or MS controller...

    UFO Talk

    If I ever see one, I'd try to show some hospitality just to see what sort of response I'd get, if any. I don't see any reason to fear them if they don't show hostile intent. There's a possibility a vastly superior intelligence might share something deeply profound and meaningful with you. We...

    Would you rather live in a Democracy where you're lied in all the time, or a Dictatorship where you're told the truth about things that affect you.

    Short term, one could certainly argue in favor of a benevolent dictator over a badly led Democracy. But a benevolent dictator will eventually die, and then the one who replaces them might be a complete tyrant. A Democracy at least has some safeguards in place (not perfect, but better than...

    With the meteoric rise in fast food prices post-COVID, has it affected your eating habits?

    A whole chicken? No. A big tray of chicken thighs I got marked down for 79 cents a pound? Yes. Some air fryers do have rotisserie attachments in them, but they cost more than $100. I could certainly see the value for someone who has a large family to feed, they could put a ton of...

    With the meteoric rise in fast food prices post-COVID, has it affected your eating habits?

    It hasn't changed my eating habits in any way. People paying for expensive junk food might want to consider learning how to cook. I got a $100 air fryer that I've made all sorts of delicious food with, so even people in very small apartments or a dorm could cook with an air fryer. I still...

    Misc Tears of the Kingdom Interactive Map

    I activated 99% of the lights in the underworld, and can add these markers when the proper marker is added.

    Misc Tears of the Kingdom Interactive Map

    The location for some of the shrines is extremely misleading, because they could be underground only accessed from a cave. There's at least 10-12 shrines I have not been able to find due to them being extremely well hidden, even if I know where the general location is. Cave or well markers...

    [SPOILERS AHEAD] Zelda TotK Help thread

    There's a bunch of shrines inside of caves that I don't know the location to. I got a shrine map that shows all shrines, but it's zoomed out without any context to go along with it. Has anyone shared a more detailed full map that's zoomed in closer so I can see more land marks?

    [SPOILERS AHEAD] Zelda TotK Help thread

    I've done 40 something, and had no problems with any of them, but this one seems ridiculous. You got 4 balls, and 10 slots, I mean someone hypothetically could try every possible combination but that would take a very long time. Maybe someone got lucky on this and got it in a couple of...

    [SPOILERS AHEAD] Zelda TotK Help thread

    I need help with this shrine, it's the only one I've done that I'm at a complete loss on. I've given up on it at this point after trying all of the most obvious combinations.

    Isn't it hypocritical to force people to take jobs while unemployed?

    People, especially those of low skill and education are going to have to do whatever jobs they can find that pay the bills. And this also goes for people with degrees in fields that there's little demand for, or are extremely competitive fields. Listen kiddies, part of being an adult is...

    Tears of the Kingdom crash fix (Ryujinx)

    Of course I tested it. The file is clean and it works.

    Isn't it hypocritical to force people to take jobs while unemployed?

    Until we got fully autonomous androids who can do all the shit jobs that nobody wants to do, you can't have a functioning society without people in these positions. And if people are paid to sit on their ass, then nobody will do these jobs. Some type of system where autonomous androids do all...
