  • Factorio Friday Facts #416 - Fluids 2.0

    Jump

  • I knew there was some jank with the fluid system, but not to this degree. I now feel less bad about leaving some pipe setups in a "good enough" state instead of optimizing.

    Jump

  • You play until you're no longer having fun, then you stop.

  • Because it's nice to have options, and as we've seen time and time again, once a certain site/service becomes the de facto for that niche, it's all too easy for them to start squeezing their userbase for more money.

    If you think Nexus won't go down that route (they have overall been pretty good to their users so far), there are still other concerns, like imposing restrictive rules, services going down, the site being sold, etc.

  • Video Game Execs Are Ruining Video Games

    Jump

  • They don't care about their own long term survival. Their goal is to boost the next quarter and collect their bonuses, and when things go south, they jump ship with their golden parachutes and head to their next executive job.

  • Beyond Galaxyland – Announcement Trailer – Nintendo Switch

    Jump

  • It's worth noting this will also be coming to PS4/5, Xbox, Steam, and Epic.

    Jump

  • I recently got into Gunpla, so this game looks a lot more interesting now.

  • After 10,000+ hours grinding, MapleStory's first level 300 player slams the brakes at 299.99 to rant about the MMO and then quit, all on a dev-promoted stream

    Jump

  • I think you're jumping to conclusions a little too quickly, there. Was my time in WoW habitual? Definitely. Escapism? Sure. Unhealthy? More often yes than no. Every time I quit, it was because the game wasn't fun anymore.

    I'm sure you mean well, but you may not want to draw conclusions based on a couple lines of text.

  • I had over 11k hrs in WoW when I quit. That was over the span of 12 years and definitely included some extended breaks, but there were also long periods of 6-10 hrs a day for extended periods.

  • So who's been on a cruise ship?

    Jump

  • I went on a cruise 20 years ago with my family. We drove to New Orleans and stayed a couple days there before boarding the ship and hitting a couple spots in Mexico. Overall, the cruise was fine, but I actually enjoyed our time in New Orleans more. Some notable things from the cruise: -Security at the Mexican ports were packing some heat. I saw security personnel with Uzis and M16s. -The ship had a clothing-optional tanning deck, and I found it equal parts amusing and awkward to be walking with my parents among a bunch of topless/naked people laying around. For context, I was 18 and raised in a conservative christian household, so I hadn't really been exposed (heh) to that kind of thing before. -The food on the ship was fine. They had a soda fountain and small pizza bar available 24 hrs/day. -A hurricane was entering the gulf towards the end of our cruise, which ruined our snorkeling activity. The waves wouldn't let us swim very far from the shore. At least we got refunded for that part. -On the way back to NO, we sailed on the outskirts of said hurricane, so the waters were decently rough. Luckily, I don't get motion sickness, but evidently, just about everyone else did. I got bored sitting in the cabin with my seasick family, so I walked around the ship. It was kinda eerie seeing almost no one else as I was walking around.

    I don't think I would do another cruise, since for that kind of money, I'd rather take a trip that I would enjoy more, not to mention the environmental impact those ships have.

  • Reboot was such a good show, and ahead of its time imo. I rewatched it a few years back, and there were so many tech jokes and references that went over my head as a kid.
