  • Best "screwing around" Game Request

    Jump

  • Subnautica and I have a tricky relationship...

    I tried it once and bounced off basically right away due to needing water constantly.

    Then years later I tried again and got into it for about 15 or 30 hours, and was having a great time, but then I hit a point where I lost immersion. I could feel what they needed me to do to get the resources I needed to progress, but I wasn't into it, and then a big monster broke my favourite little sub and I was like "fuck this, I'm not going to grind around getting the resources to rebuild my sub, I'm out"

    But there was some time where I enjoyed it in the middle there!

  • Oh yeah! I didn't even think to mention it, but I did really dig just swinging around in Spiderman!

  • 4x6 thermal label printers on linux

    Jump

  • I've been using a printer called 4barcode for a while. It has an apt package with ppd cups drivers in it, and it works well.

    I don't know the exact model, and I think the brand of the printer might not even be 4barcode and it's just a different "brand" but really they're all the same?

    That having been said, the one I have once failed to work with a brand of labels on a roll I bought in a pinch, but the fanfold ones I've been using from Amazon work well.

  • Outer Wilds drawing I made

    Jump

  • I fully understand. But if it helps (without major spoilers), the horror elements are not permanent, and as you learn to progress you learn to work around them and through them.

    But yeah, if they're too deal-breaky upfront, I totally get that. You do spend a lot of time, pun intended, in the dark.

  • TIL "Mausoleum" is another one of those things that's just named after a guy

    Jump

  • Sure but... I'm pretty sure the word and title does come from him specifically

  • 'Huge respect to the folks at Obsidian': Todd Howard invited Obsidian devs onto Fallout season 2's set so they could see New Vegas in the flesh

    Jump

  • As a person who didn't work on New Vegas, and in fact has never even played a Fallout game, I'd like an invitation if we're giving them out!

  • Per my last email

    Jump

  • Yeah sorry 😛

  • There Are Tons Of New Steam Deck Startup Videos Based on Games, And Hades 2's Video is Incredible

    Jump

  • But it's a title...

    I honestly hadn't even noticed, so I'm surprised it bothered you so much. But I guess I get grumpy about other random bullshit sometimes...

  • Per my last email

    Jump

  • You seem riled up! Is it because of your work? What do you do for work?

  • South Korea police say 120,000 home cameras hacked for 'sexploitation' footage

    Jump

  • I think most people who have security cameras want them recording, because you don't know when you'll need it. Having a camera that records when you know it needs to be means you already know there's something going on, which is often the opposite case for a security camera which is to notify you when something you don't know it's happening happens, or at least something you don't expect.

    That having been said, I don't have one because I'm not nuts, and if I did I'd at least cover it before changing in front of it, but whatever I guess!

  • Pop what? Pop what Magnitude!? What's he trying to say!?

  • WATCH: Canadian SNL Mocks Trump With ‘Quiet Piggy’ Kids Book Skit

  • It's not a website, it's a TV show that's been on the air since 1993 (~32 years)

  • Epic boss Tim Sweeney thinks stores like Steam should stop labelling games as being made with AI: 'It makes no sense,' he says, because 'AI will be involved in nearly all future production

    Jump

  • Huh. I didn't know this was a feature Steam had. Weird!

    What do you think shapes someone’s views on monogamy and non-monogamy?

    Jump

  • At least part of it is self esteem and trust. That's not to say that no poly people have self esteem issues, but if I am worried that my partner being with another person means I'm not good enough for them, then I'm going to feel resentful, insecure, jealous, or some combination of those. That's not a recipe for success. But if I can feel like their time without me isn't a reflection on their time with me, then there's not as many feelings in the way.

    But I think overall for me the philosophy is a rejection of Hallmark and Disney notions of love. I don't believe any one person could ever be my one and only everything, and in fact it seems sick to put that much pressure on either of us. Whereas spreading the load around and having different people with different strengths seems much healthier.

    So maybe a bit more "community" oriented, rather than individualistic or insular "you and I against the world"?

    Or maybe I'm putting too much into this 😛

  • Copy some of it, or importantly reject some of it

    Jump

  • I hear people say this sometimes, but I don't know what they mean. Is there part of Valve's system that has a gambling mechanic I've just never engaged with?

    Or is it one of their games that has gambling?

    Because I've been using it for years as basically my sole gaming interface and haven't seen any gambling.

  • FuckyeahZZT!!!

    So good.

  • Feeling that groove

    Jump

  • Yeah! It's dope. With this new understanding I'll circle back around. In an indirect sense the groove of a record represents how far our eardrum should be from its "silent resting position" over time. That's it. The brain is what takes that complicated signal that varies over time and makes something it recognizes out of it.

    And then the information encoded on a CD, or magnetic tape, or in a compressed audio file is just the same thing: distance of eardrum from neutral over time.

    Oh, and stereo and surround sound and all that is just different audio tracks that play out of different speakers at a synchronized time. Again, it's our brain that notices it hears a flute in the left ear very slightly before it hears it in the right ear and thus feels like that means there's a flute to our left. But there's nothing "flute left" about either individual signal, they're just different audio that we detected a slight difference in from ear to ear.

  • Seals the deal, once and for all.

  • Entirely unrelatedly, I think I've concluded that black men are also real women.
