Let me tell you my week.

  1. 9 year old started physical therapy because of chronic head tilt and pain in her neck.

  2. 9 year old had a panic attack in school involving my intervention to help.

  3. Had to get a crown put in at the dentist.

  4. Colonoscopy prep and procedure.

  5. Was gifted a new graphics card for my PC. Installed correctly, it is compatible with my motherboard. We have the proper power supply and the pc has completely shit the bed.

Fuck me. At least I don't have cancer.

@Tijn oh I totally understand and appreciate it! Calling the manufacturer tech support for the motherboard and see what I can do. It's bad. Real bad.

@Bogusmeatfactory@dosgame.club avatar

@Tijn yeah. It started off as a simple "Windows driver issue." That degraded to "Your bios won't load" to "no display at all and we have a yellow light saying you are overheating (it's not)" can't afford to get a new motherboard. Trying my hardest not to have a complete breakdown. Can't catch a break but doing some deep breathing and trying to calm down.

When I wake up from my nap, I am gonna hammer out all my DMs I've been sitting on.

Lots of sorry's for not responding right away. Look, I spent last week with my oldest in the ER with a very unusual breathing condition, she starts physical therapy for a severe head tilt, has gone through a major emotionally triggering event and I have an upcoming colonoscopy and dental issue being dealt with this week. It's been A LOT of anxiety!

@Tijn it's alright! We prioritize well and address the obstacles as they arise! It's just been a huge undertaking this month!

Our garden is overrun by snails. It's maddening, they're eating all the carefully grown vegetable plants we're trying to cultivate.

Several plants have been completely destroyed by now.

Only today we removed 50 snails!

What are some of the hidden gems of the Game Boy Advance and why haven't I played them?
Well time to do it, revisiting both Broken Sword and such smaller classics as Urban Yeti and Rhythm Tengoku. In 30 minutes my variety stream is on.

Someone did the nicest thing in the world and I can not stress enough how thankful I am to them. I live in a bubble. I have no family support, a single in-person friend and no support network. Having to be a full-time parent to a child who is a victim of trauma has been such a challenge that is compounded by being a single income home. We can't afford much and spend almost all of our money on the essentials and bills. 1/

So when someone decided to go out of their way to help me with something I've wanted for some time, I don't even know how to express it effectively. That doesn't happen to me... period and the fact that it did warms my heart to no end. I don't know what level of thanks I should express, because it just doesn't happen and I've no experience with it.

People-ing is hard when you have no extended family or friends. 2/2

Never trust a person who always adds, "lol" to the end of their sentences regardless of its content.

"Hey how is it going lol?"
"Can someone help me please lol"

@Tijn lol

It's a day stream baby and what better way to kick it off than with some classic Project 1999 Everquest! https://twitch.tv/bogusmeatfactory

Hey folks we are now live with more of Dark Sun: Wake of the Ravager! Baldur's Gate 3 has nothing on this game as we try and escape the clutches of some very hungry Mind Flayers! https://twitch.tv/bogusmeatfactory

Is there a dreamcast emulator out there that allows you to play the game AND also play the VMU mini-games and reconnect them to the game much like Dolphin does for the GBA Advanced Link Cable?

What did I get done today?

I did some dishes
I did some laundry
I took all our old dvds and cds and organized them in a binder (sorry. Not keeping the cases).

That's better than nothing!

@lunarloony I wouldn't mind going all digital but my wife is insistent on keeping her childhood cds and she doesn't have much from her childhood. I can't deny her that.

Vague Patch Notes: The problem with forever adding classes to MMOs

@massivelyop I get very frustrated when people expect MMO expansions to always include new races/classes. Unless the game had them conceived from the start, they always feel unbalanced, tacked on or don't fit with the world at large.

Expansions should be about new discoveries, a change in world events or new features that fit within the broad scope of the world. I don't know... I feel old, but MMOs just don't feel like virtual worlds because of this modern design philosophy.
