CaptainEffort,

Yup, walking everywhere when I briefly lived in Europe was huge for me, both for my physical and mental health.

The Mist (2007 240p) (www.youtube.com)

The Mist (also known as Stephen King’s The Mist) is a 2007 American science-fiction horror film based on the 1980 novella The Mist by Stephen King. The film was written, directed and co-produced by Frank Darabont. Darabont had been interested in adapting The Mist for the big screen since the 1980s. The film features an...

CaptainEffort,

I couldn’t believe they went there, I was genuinely really impressed

CaptainEffort,

Thanks to the tv show. The movies didn’t do anything.

CaptainEffort,

I’m confused, do you think you need the sub to play Switch games? Not paying the sub doesn’t mean you have to pirate or emulate.

CaptainEffort,

When a single game costs $70 I’d call it an expensive hobby.

Sure, you can buy an old gen console and only purchase old second hand games, but modern gaming is expensive.

CaptainEffort, (edited )

That’s my point though, movies are also considered a pretty expensive hobby. People aren’t going to theaters and piracy is sky high currently because it’s simply getting too expensive for a single movie ticket. Tickets near me, for example, are $15 minimum, with some being over $20. So for my family to go to the movies it could be $100 minimum for one movie, and god forbid anyone wants snacks.

And just like gaming, you can simply wait for every movie you want to watch to end up in the bargain bin on dvd, but imo that’s a different discussion entirely. When people talk about a hobby being expensive, they’re usually not talking about the lowest possible entry point.

I guess it would be more accurate to say that gaming and movies can be expensive, not that they inherently are. Like, you can grab a Steam Deck and solely stick to grabbing indie games during sales and ultimately not spend that much, at least relative to the alternative.

CaptainEffort,

Totally agree, I actually brought up the Steam Deck in another comment

CaptainEffort,

Oh I agree, I addressed all of that in another comment. Even used movies as an example lol.

CaptainEffort,

It’s the same thing. I used to have a Samsung with an always on display and loved it, so I was thrilled when iPhone finally got it after I switched over.

Same deal, OLED screen, you can use it for the clock, date, weather, whatever.

CaptainEffort,

How is ayahuasca? I love the other two, but I had a friend try it and he said he didn’t feel much besides some nausea.

CaptainEffort,

…I’m so glad I don’t live in the south

CaptainEffort,

I’ve never heard it anywhere on the east coast

CaptainEffort,

There’s an npc in a Skyrim mod who wants your help to find this magic tome. When you find it they use it to turn into a woman, coming out as trans. It was super cool, I genuinely didn’t expect it.

CaptainEffort,

Good for her, I went to my younger brother’s graduation and, while happy with the amount of protesting, was disappointed in the student speaker’s speech. It was purposefully vague, not outright saying anything.

CaptainEffort,

Honestly my first thought was that I’d like to try it

CaptainEffort,

Definitely just verified, the actual number is easily triple that.

Not to mention even tons of unsupported games work perfectly fine.

CaptainEffort,

I’ll tell you that while my modded Switch was easily my favorite system, getting a Deck completely made it obsolete for me. It’s been gathering dust ever since.

Don’t get me wrong, if you’re someone that primarily plays Nintendo exclusives then the Switch is still great. But if you mostly just use it to play your games on the go, and modded it to emulate, the Deck is an easy recommendation.

Plus it’s, imo, the best gateway into PC gaming. It’s reasonably powerful, easy to use, and lets you start building a pc library that will stay with you regardless of new game generations. Free multiplayer and sales are also a nice bonus.

If you’re interested you should look into EmuDeck.

CaptainEffort,

Some aren’t even that egregious. A game having a launcher, or requiring you to manually bring up the keyboard, for example, keeps it from being verified.

So Monster Hunter Rise, a game that works flawlessly, launched as “playable” because it required you to manually evoke the keyboard when typing your name in character creation.

CaptainEffort,

Try switching it to launch the windows version through Proton instead of the Linux version. Loads of games work better that way I’ve found, since a lot of the Linux versions don’t get the same level of support.

CaptainEffort,

You can bump the resolution, so that’s not an issue. The only problem is, depending on the game, higher resolutions will be harder to run.

So actually it’ll usually look better than the Switch. Same resolution or higher, with graphics options to make it look even better.

CaptainEffort,

My dad did the same with keylime pie. Like literally he had a serious Chef try it and the guy said it was the best he’s ever had.

The issue? My dad’s a binge eater and couldn’t stop himself from making it constantly. I have the same problem so I’ve actively avoided learning the recipe.

CaptainEffort,

They missed this, but she’s upset because he’s imagining her as a man

CaptainEffort,

Even if he likes men, and she knew, being told that you’re thought of as the gender you’re not isn’t something most people want. Calling a girl a dude when they identify as a girl isn’t exactly flattering.
