Valliac,

But however will the poor shareholders get their value this quarter?

Someone think of the shareholders!

Valliac,

Get a decent vpn, a worthwhile adblocker and some reliable pirate sites.

I havent paid for a gd thing for over a year and I don’t plan to anytime soon.

Valliac,

“The leopards surely won’t eat my face.”

Another reason to leave Reddit: I forgot how hostile it can be

I’ve mostly left reddit and switched to beehaw, but I posted on somewhat of a niche tech-related subreddit today since there really isn’t a community for that here yet. And wow, I got instantly downvoted twice and the first comment response was rude and hostile. All I posted was a feature suggestion for software that I...

Valliac,

It’s Twitter, but in longer form.

Everyone’s just there to be outraged at something. The whole internet is outrage-bait.

Valliac,

I still make the argument that Sonic 2 was the best out of the trilogy in terms of gameplay and music.

While 3 was great, I think it suffered from the level design being a bit wonky on some areas (looking at you, Marble Garden Zone).

what's your favorite Gameboy game that isn't Pokemon or Mario?

I've just rediscovered my childhood Gameboys, I grew up in the 90s and had an original, a color, an advance and an sp. My game collection has whittled down over the year to the usual suspects, Pokemons, Zelda's, Mario's and some other standards. But I want to dive into some games that 7 year old me would have brushed over. So...

Valliac,

The port of FF4 on the GBA was really good.

Original Gameboy, though, I played a LOT of the Tomogotchi game. I don't know why, but I loved that janky garbage pile of a game.

Wario Land 2 was a constant as well.

Valliac,

Urinatingtree has some fantastic videos on the decline and follow-up situation.

It really is a shame how a team can go so high with such a devoted fanbase to the absolute bottom so quickly.

Valliac,

I used to eat onion and mustard sandwiches years ago. They're not bad, actually.

Valliac,

Or that he liked Nickelback?

I'll see past many things, but Nickelback?

Not even once.

Valliac,

Soon the only available free option will be 32kbps, 16kHz, mono, and it's just a sound byte shaming you for not paying them.

Valliac,

Considering I deal with people who blast their music from their phone speakers without headphones, I do not want to know what over-bassed track they're listening to.

Valliac,

Why can't we do like the UK does?

  • You can only campaign for a certain period of time (like, a month or two iirc)
  • You have a hard limit of what you can spend on said campaign
  • TV stations must give equal TV time to both parties, and parties can't start campaigning until a certain period after the election is announced.
  • EDIT: and they use ranked choice voting.

(I'm in the US so I'm pulling a lot of this from memory, please correct me if I'm wrong)

Yeah, people may still vote for an idiot. But it's an idiot they voted for, and not one that was bought for some company for tax breaks.

Valliac,

Thanks for the info. I had a vague idea of UK elections, but didn't realize the specifics of other countries.

Valliac,

I wouldn't be shocked if there were keywords or sites being critical or mentioning Reddit getting botvoted or just shadow banned outright.

Valliac,

I love me some cities skylines. Even if it's just me making the worst-designed cities and getting mad about traffic.

Valliac,

Yakuza 0 really is the king of sidequests, imo.

Need to rush to the bridge and stop someone getting shaken down?

Sure, but mahjong and crane games first.

Valliac,

Will also tack on Boneraiser Minions to that list. It's a great survivors-like but your minions deal damage instead of the player. Great art and music.

Valliac,

I just fired up a GD game with a friend last weekend. I forgot how to play since it’s been so long.

Necro/Occultist all day long. BoneZone and the boys causing havoc all around.

Majority of Americans Would Like to Return to Time Before Cell Phones, Internet, According to New Poll (www.thewrap.com)

Seventy-seven percent of middle-age Americans (35-54 years old) say they want to return to a time before society was “plugged in,” meaning a time before there was widespread internet and cell phone usage. As told by a new Harris Poll (via Fast Company), 63% of younger folks (18-34 years old) were also keen on returning to a...

Valliac, (edited )

Gonna do the same. Nuke all my comments and keep the account. Just change the password to something unintelligible.

Valliac,

I watched the replay of Dynamite and was like "wtf are they giving Cole and MJF 20 minutes on free TV?"

I mean the outcome makes sense, in hindsight.

A good show all-around though.

Valliac,

I was starting to miss Eddie as well. Soon as Claudio was in the ring I was like "PLEASE rehash the Chikara feud".

I need more Eddie Kingston addressing his enemies.

Valliac,

It blows my mind that someone who has had so much shady, illegal dealings confirmed in a court of law can go out there and say "You should give me money because America is full of criminals" and a non-zero number of people go "Yeah, he's right."

Valliac, (edited )

Standard business practice.

  • Get it out there, tout it as the new biggest thing. Most people won't know it's not busted.
  • Improve said item once the company behind it actually figures out what they're doing.
  • Say it's better, when it's basically the original thing you promised.
  • ????
  • Profit.
Valliac,

As you can see, Twitter is now firmly in Act II: 'Finding Out'
