I don’t have much to report except my oldest now thinks it’s ok to swear when my bestie is hanging out and idk where the fuck he gets it from.

4th was successfully uneventful though I really wish I had the cosmic powers to make it rain from like 6pm to 11pm during their shitty fireworks bullshit here. Our youngest slept through it though so I guess it’s cool.

Back when I was a spry lad we’d just go on hunting trips. I don’t understand these youngens and their fancy trends these days.

Turbo Overkill is sort of Duke Nukem/Quake strafe boomer shooter with modern schmovement mechanics like Ultrakill.

Also another vote for Prodeus. It’s basically a Brutal Doom clone. It’s messy and gory and just a tone of mindless fun.

I’m playing Prey right now and it’s also a ton of fun trying to figure out ways to do stuff instead of running in all guns a-blazing. Still trying to figure out how stealth really works mechanically.

Hell, even I didn’t know who he was until Blowback. I’m a pretty bad lib though.

I guess I don’t follow the hardware as close as I thought I did lol. I will say I’ve played Ocarina with my Arc and it’s actually playable. I haven’t checked any PS1 games yet, but mostly play JRPGs anyway so I think it would also be manageable.

The SP was more me wanting something that I can throw in my bag on the way to my hypothetical job, but I am never gonna have a job again so maybe I will skip it lol.

Kinda think dude might be gay.

This looks like the RG405M but better?

I have the Arc-D and I think it’s the same screen. 4 inch really is a sweet spot for handhelds that you maybe don’t wanna take on the go.

I really wanna get the RG35XXSP but this looks sweet too.

Our government: We’ve even asked them nicely but they just won’t do it. We just wish there was something else we could try.

I usually get dementia after flying too.

Please Kim, push the Juche gamer button, please.

I ended up refunding Mass Effect because I couldn’t get it running on Linux because their stupid launcher breaks most of their games on Linux. I used that money to get the just the base game of Prey. I may look into mods but again, on Linux and it can be a bit of a chore to get some stuff working like that.

I shared this with a friend group and someone responded with “Bloodbourne PC port?” We share each other’s pain.

My fat ass learned one day that you can deep fry those motherfuckers. It was like a glimpse of Valhalla.

I forget the other pen testing distro but I have a friend that is actually in cyber security and he uses that over Kali. He’s like the only other Linux nerd I know IRL and we only really found out we both use Linux like a few months ago.

I’ve watched it and did enjoy it lol. A bit dated on the humor but still fun. I also liked Samurai Champloo and Cowboy Bebop by the same creator. Though I still haven’t finished Cowboy Bebop.

Man I was considering getting Prey while it was on sale because I am so infatuated with the Metroidvania style world building where everything interconnects, especially in a 3D space because it’s a hot topic of debate in the community. I ended up getting Mass Effect trilogy because it was too hard to pass up a favorite series for $6 rofl. Now I can’t even get ME to run…

How hard is Prey, really? I get mixed opinions from gamers and “G*merz”. I don’t mind like a bit of challenge and know it comes with the territory of games like that but also don’t want a walking sim(though I like walking sims too lol). I ask because I am super interested in how they built the world for that game. Another example of an MV in 3D is Supraland. Idk if you played it but I really like that moment where you come out the other side and are like “huh, I’m back here… cool.” lol.

But yeah I love games. I have a rom collection of something like 5000 titles but also a huge Steam library. I’d guess around 500 games. World design, gameplay loop, and even that nonsense fanfair that Vampire Survivors did at the end of a round all fascinate me. If I wasn’t so shit at programming, I’d probably wanna get into game dev.

I’ve been using Linux for 12ish. My first distro was Ubuntu 9.10 before Unity DE was introduced. I first spun up a vm of that release probably in 2011 though if I had to guess. It was an old disc from a professor. I duel booted for a good 6 years after that but after a hardware upgrade, I borked my Windows 7 partition and said fuck it and went full time Linux as my daily driver. I was way down the rabbit hole and was actually quite evangelical about it for a good long while but that passion fizzled out a bit and I just focused on just using it.

I distro hopped from Ubuntu to Mint and ElementaryOS, then to Arch and it’s derivatives, then back to Ubuntu and eventually back to Mint. I did use Fedora and Sues for a bit but it was mostly just to check out. I used to have like 10 distros on vms for tinkering with.

Oh and holy shit gaming? It’s come such a long way even up to before Proton was released. After though, I remember that day when 90% of my Steam library went to not working to “just working”.

and their undying benefits and drawbacks.

So do you cringe whenever a new user comes in and is like “How do I use Kali?” too?

I’ve never played Yu-Gi-Oh but I have tried Magic: the Gathering and Pokemon. I am a big fan of crazy synergies in games so that sounds really interesting.

For anime, I really like the art styles but only found a few series that I could really get into. Every so often I look for a new one to watch and do give it a try though. I think I like ironic/meta type stuff because my favs are Gurren Lagann and One Punch Man.
