Oh, yes, absolutely, I was just writing from memory

Dirt

Darkest Dungeon
Deadbolt
Dungeon of endless
Dwarf Fortress
Dying Light

A well-rounded list with some great time-sinkers in it!

I was thinking that I could as well live in Germany, until this moment. Seriously.

About the craziness - yes absolutely. In most other places, you use a thing until nobody would use it, or sell it online. And here, people are just: “nah…”
Well, better for us. I also have a shitton of good stuff, including half of my clothes (I’m lucky to have size M, so a lot of stuff fits). Second hand stores look weird now: “Whoa, you need to pay for that?”

I do that all the time. A thing is a thing, and it can be your thing now. I only try to ask myself two things:

1. Do I really need that?
2. Is it in a good condition? I have a lot of used stuff at home, so if I took something half-broken, it would look like a dumpster already.

Sidenote: I live in Denmark, where people overconsume, and then get rid of stuff which is still in good condition.

Apart from the encryption, how exactly does it suck?

Sanctus Reach is something I poured a lot of hours in. It’s a classic tabletop-like turn-based game where you pick units for a set number of points.

Would you choose to be driven by waymo, taxi driver, or a bear?

IPS matrix screens were kinda ok even in 2007, when I was selling them, but they had a super shitty reaction time, so everything had quite visible trails. That was the time when a good CRT was still a professional choice. But now, and for the last 10 years or so, IPS became much better, and kept their great color palette, so there are zero reasons to look elsewhere, a standard midrange monitor does the job. And if you want even less trouble, just buy a designer a used imac - that’s an almost complete workplace, and apples retina screens are also IPS. This is what several development (mobile, web) companies I worked in did.
Well, you can go fancy and buy new ones, but the used ones are in abundance - rich mac fanboys switch to every new model that comes out

Iiyama monitors were the shit, especially if you were a designer

Yea, progress, progress

There is a choice of different voices, it wasn’t and isn’t a problem. But Sky was the best in my opinion, so even if I support the right of ms Johansson to not hear her voice out of every device, it’s personally kinda sad that they’re removing it

This was my voice of choice because it sounded like a “person on the other side” is engaged. Like when you talk to a friend or teacher who’s interested in the topic.
If somebody thinks it’s somehow related to sexuality, gender questions, etc, they have to check themselves.

Yeah, wear a helmet, guys!

I have no idea why you are being downvoted, you’re just stating facts

Great, I believe in humanity again!

Are you serious? Why do you care if he’s rabid if you’ll be dead?
When I was a teenager, I was walking past a bear cub (it was the middle of the city and some asshole took money for pictures with a “trained” bear cub). The cub didn’t like me for some reason I had a textile bag in my hand, with a leather-cover notepad in it, like a knock-off moleskin. The cub slashed the bag and his fangs cut through the bag and half of the notepad like butter. If it was my hip, he’d scratch my bones.
Now there are adult bears…

Ass wriggling on a chair: it is hard for me to keep one position

Turning the cap’s hinge on a milk carton every time you open it is not really convenient (you can’t turn the carton, it’s not round as a bottle)

Pet them? wtf?
