  • What are some common or everyday unforced errors to be wary of?

    Jump

  • Problems are like compound interest. You're going to deal with them sooner or later but if you do it later, it costs more. Deal with them sooner.

  • Whats the best use for 75 dollars?

    Jump

  • The absolute best use is opening a Vanguard account, putting $75 in VOO, and forgetting you did it for about 20 or 30 years. Even better, put a $10 in there every month as well.

    For a gift for myself when I'm not strapped for cash, I use gift cards and cash for something I would never buy myself. It just feels like it makes a bigger impact that way. I remember it.

    If going the charity route, go to your nearest unhoused shelter and ask what they need. I volunteer at one that is hanging on by a thread (no real funding other than a small grant from the county, it's just volunteers). Sometimes donations aren't hitting everything we need and something has run out. Hot chocolate packets and cup of noodles are so valuable (easily transportable, usable, stable, and withstand outdoor weather) that we were giving out handfuls yesterday instead of our typical limit of 1 per person per day. It's wild how important those little things are.

    Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?

    Jump

  • We played Rock Band (yarc) for hours at our Xmas Eve party last night. 20 or so people and just about everyone cycled thru to play. That game will never die.

  • Graduate instructor who gave failing grade to Samantha Fulnecky no longer teaching at OU

    Jump

  • It’s even worse than that. The student gave an interview and said they wanted to go see a play so they slapped the paper together in a half hour and dint read the material the paper was supposed to be based on.

    Absolute cowardice by Oklahoma.

  • Steam winter sale is live. What patient games are you picking up?

    Jump

  • Got them the cosplay they wanted for Xmas. That’s their big gift.

    And in this moment, I realized my kid fits some theater kid cosplay archetype that I didn’t know existed.

  • 10 cents for every message was robbery

    Jump

  • I just refused to have texting back then. I worked for a phone company around that time and the bullshit they would charge for drove me crazy.

  • YSK about Psyllium husk

    Jump

  • did I just get psyllium husk pilled

  • Boy you called that shot. That's exactly what I've got.

  • Steam winter sale is live. What patient games are you picking up?

    Jump

  • Alright, this must actually be a thing because that's what my kid said about Date Everything, too. The kid is way into voice acting.

    • Shape of Dreams: Need to scratch that hack n slash itch. D4 is boring and PoE 2 ran horrible on my machine. New game but under $15.
    • Cuphead: One of my kids has wanted to play this for years. Xmas present for him.
    • Date Everything: The other kid wants this one. Xmas present. I dunno, man.
    • The Seance of Blake Manor: Our family loves these kinds of games and it's one of the only ways to get us all in a room. New game but under $15.
    • Split Fiction: I hate the price still but my wife loved It Takes Two. Fiiiiiiine.
    • Duck Detective The Secret Salami: Another family game.
    • Echoes of the Plum Grove: I like this kinda stuff

  • Steam Replay 2025 is now live

    Jump

  • Me too, but people I know into each of those genres usually just play the shit out of those genres. Racing peeps and sports sims peeps usually have a billion hours in them and like 3 playing some else.

  • I like brutalism and that building suuuuuuuuuuucks

  • Steam Replay 2025 is now live

    Jump

  • The last time I played (probably 3 or 4 years ago), I had my brother pocket medic for me in the same physical room so I could bark orders at him. He'd never played, but he's a good fps player. My first life on a pub server I went as a heavy and got a 22 kill streak. We're a family of highly competent shit talkers and boy, my brother didn't have shit to say.

  • UK to “encourage” Apple and Google to put nudity-blocking systems on phones

    Jump

  • As the dad of a teenager, I am "encouraging" him to put nudity blocking systems on his phone.

    oh shit would you look at that i just taught him how to go around me and hide his behavior better im sure there will be no future consequences whatsoever
