I love to play a game about solving problems using everyday items in real world situations and it's less intuitive than an intentionally confusing puzzle game that conflates the UI with the ostensible game objects to screw with your assumptions

played the first 3 chapters of "the drifter" and while I am enjoying the game's general vibe and presentation, its gameplay is absolutely infuriating. actually baffled at the rave reviews it's gotten unless this is typical for adventure games?

now someone just needs to make a game where you're an egg who flips a coin

this is link to the past vs link's awakening for me

just played the first ⅓ (I think?) of this with my partner and can confirm the "you're kidding" reaction, it's good

can I pay someone to play "you can never go back to new york" at festival volume outside the white house 24 hours a day

labour seeing reform's numbers: we gotta get more racist labour seeing a leftist win: we gotta get more racist on tiktok

I'm continually surprised how many people with politics careers take DOGE as fulfilling its stated purpose, and therefore should be emulated, when it was very obviously a fascist operation to unlawfully smash various organs of the state for largely conspiratorial reasons

I'm partway through too many videogames so I thought it would be a great time to get back into slay the spire

rip bozo

if you are going to be on social media a key requirement is that you not get mad about people blocking you. you will drive yourself out of your mind otherwise. which makes arguments premised on "people block me and I feel badly about it" seem absurd

the price of stamps is up about 500% since royal mail was privatised

just caught youtube inventing a subscription to an anti abortion channel I have never watched

mouthwashing. hmm

speaking of, this seems so basic but can I congratulate the genki covert dock for services to the field of "tech stuff that just works". genuinely brilliant travel dock for connecting almost anything to a big screen

can anyone explain why an older 720p TV will crop the edge off a 1280x720 hdmi input off a laptop or console and whether you can do anything about it and how on earth games consoles ever worked

been a long while since I've been in edinburgh and it's too nice man. the rest of uk needs to figure out the immortal science of "looking great when the weather is terrible"

I invented the idea of subtext as a warning to the devs of this web site. unfortunately,

hearing the big guy has decked out the presidential bathroom to look like a fromsoft fog gate, smart

ok the flip side of lore dump exposition is the springsteen movie which feels like the entire plot happens off screen which is equally infuriating. something in the middle please

in a desert vast and sandy stand the legs of ozymandy with his frowning shattered visage left half buried on the floor and among that ancient wreckage, see the artist's chiseled message "look upon my works ye mighty and despair" ozy implores
