With gaming often bringing me into a really depressive headspace sometimes with how the markets are developing, whats a game you can always go to and just be lost in, or just be happy with?...
Loved the RCT games growing up. I distinctly remember the water park expansion pack not working with my local copy of RCT3, for whatever reason. Being a kid, I never thought to contact support, and so I waited and waited for the platinum edition to release.
Those roller coaster vids back in the day with the 3D view were nuts! Some people are so creative...
Bloons TD 6. Just so incredibly addicting, and there's depth to the different monkeys and how they interact, especially when you think about all the upgrades.
I’m kind of tired of Google sending me to the same 3 sites whenever I search for something. If not the same 3 sites it’s 7 others that are so generic and boring I just feel they’re useless. It’s always makeuseof, androidauthority, or whatever other sites that have useful information but I rarely feel like they are saying...
For a while now I've been quite happy running LibreWolf, with Bitwarden and some other privacy extensions. I've also switched over from Google to Kagi as a search engine; doesn't keep me anonymous, but I do love not being the product for once.
Personally, I started off with Roblox back in the early 2010s, and taught myself Lua. I really liked those Tycoon games, and wanted to see how they worked....
Personally, I'm a huge fan of Hollow Knight, Ori and the (Blind Forest/Will of the Wisps), and Kingdom Hearts. Orchestral soundtracks are just something else...
I've been dipping my toes into NextJS, Vercel, PlanetScale, and other serverless / edge providers, and there's so many terms / concepts thrown my way that I feel overwhelmed a lot of the time....
I watched Oshi No Ko on an absolute whim, and oh my god, what a first episode. It's an absolute spectacle, and I loved the decision to make it longer. The "hallway scene" was harrowing.
Ah man, I'm in the same boat. Picked up Skyrim special edition a while back but never got into it. I plan on setting aside some time and delving deep into it. I put a fair amount of hours into Oblivion, and that was a blast.
we have a nice thing going here, and i'm glad that about 5,500 of you are here to share it with us. it's a new day tomorrow and i hope you'll be here for that too...
Another recommendation for Linux Mint here. I’ve bounced between Manjaro, Ubuntu, Fedora, and I’ve found Linux Mint to just be fantastic for beginners, in that everything just works, and it does a great job of guiding the user through installation, updating drivers, updating packages (including choosing an appropriate package mirror), and setting up backups.
It’s just really nice all around; the only thing I could complain about is lack of touchpad gesture support, but that’s probably not an issue for desktop PC usage.
Apparently these days, the most popular dream job among children is influencer. I've seen articles about it, and both the articles and the comments are invariably full of judgy statements about how Kids These Days^TM^ are such narcissists/their brains are being rotted by social media/they don't want to do anything valuable with...
The kids know the grind is bullshit, and they see becoming an influencer as a way to escape that.
I have a strong doubt that kids see influencers as an "escape" from the grind, but rather as a "cool" career path where they can get fame and admiration from many people without a whole lot of study or physical labour put in.
I love having full control over my music files, but one of the major pain points is moving between applications. Say I start using plex, get real comfy with my playlists, then one day I decide to try out Jellyfin. Sure, I still have all my music on there, but none of my playlists....
::: spoiler spoiler It's a shocking revelation when you discover the sun station doesn't even do anything, when up to that point you might think to yourself that it's the sun station that causes the supernova. :::
Something I made quite extensive use of back on Reddit was the ability to wrap related subreddits into a single multireddit, which I could then browse as I wanted....
I tried putting the story in the body of the post a few times but it hangs forever when submitting, I think there may be a character processing limit. Trying it this way to see if I can post it in the comments instead.
Like many, I find I can come up with cool setting ideas and various characters, but one thing I struggle with is figuring out how to wrap everything up....
Comfort games?

Where To Find Actually Good Search Engines?

What browser / extensions do you make use of?

What's the best Linux alternative to Windows for gaming
I use Windows for my desktop PC but I'm also a fan of Linux for work and programming....
Random opinion I needed to tell the world: It's not weird or bad that kids want to grow up to be influencers.
