Deeply troubled with how long the pannetone that comes in the red box is staying fresh

After 100+ hours I can say I don't really understand how to be good at the systems Path of Exile 2 presents, but this game is incredible. GOTY 2024, likely 2025. Hah.

Looking forward to at least attempting to get back into a looter Action RPG with Path of Exile 2, once it's actually playable. Get at me if you are playing!

@stephenhilger.bsky.social as a fellow podmin, I need to know: how do you laugh so loudly but don't distort your signal during recording?? I need this tech!

Whenever I come across some random negative takes about my podcast not being tryhard enough:

Bye for now babies

Throwing this out into the ether: If you have a gaming PC, getting Moonlight/Sunshine running smoothly is like buying a console, handheld, laptop, and phone with access to the biggest library of games imaginable, essentially imperceptible latency, and flippin' native res raytraced graphics.

Destiny 2 is a time sink of proportions I haven't fathomed since Diablo 3. Good lord. Not sure if I want to keep going or cut bait before it gets dangerous.

It's a cool convo, Bront

Games I'm enjoying lately: Elden Ring (wow hot take), UFO50, Curse of the Dead Gods, 30XX, and Metaphor: ReFantazio (although I'm still early and yes I am also surprised I enjoy this). Looking forward to Soulframe, Metal Slug Tactics, Red Dead Redemption, Animal Well, Nine Sols, and Astral Ascent.

Look, I don't really "post" on these things but being on Twitter is not gonna really work for me anymore so give me your favorite fun follows. Going a little head in the sand for a bit and wouldn't mind a bit of levity where I can find it.
