You forgot the part where your boss yells at you for being out too long because the house you were supposed to go to had a mile long driveway and no numbers on the road.

Back in my reddit days I wrote a long comment about the fact that zombies are scary because they are the ultimate endurance hunters.
- Comment on Tunic is awesome and I wish more people talked about it 1 week ago:
It was (maybe still is) on Game Pass which gave it a ton of exposure.
- Comment on Meta and Yandex are de-anonymizing Android users’ web browsing identifiers - Ars Technica 2 weeks ago:
Most of the people I talk to regularly, yes. I also use Discord for less private stuff, less personal contacts, and for video chat when I play D&D. I text with my wife and one friend who I mostly discuss D&D with. Both of them have Signal if I needed to reach out to them privately or while abroad. For the record, I would like to get off Discord but audio and video quality are really important to me and I haven’t found a good replacement yet.
I also have a seperate (company paid) phone for all work communications. There’s ups and downs to that but it definitely contributes to my ability to be restrictive in what apps I put on my phone.
- Comment on lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this month 2 weeks ago:
The problem, besides that just being gross, is that hosting csam is a very serious crime in most places. Leaving that unmoderated can very easily end with alphabet agencies frok around the world shutting down lemmy instances.

Yeah sure its all fun and games until people start posting csam.

- Comment on Where Have All My Deep Male Friendships Gone? 4 weeks ago:
Due to different work schedules and people moving to diffetent parts of the country, I rarely see my friends in person. However, we play dnd over video chay every Monday (except this one because I’m too sick to DM) and we text and play video games. If friendships are important to you, you just have to put a little effort in.
- Comment on Microsoft bans words like "Palestine", "Gaza" and "Genocide" in all company emails and fires the employee who protested Microsoft during event. 4 weeks ago:
I’m thinking about switching over but I’ve been worried because I have an nvidia gpu in my gaming rig. I see some people say that’s no problem while others claim keeping the drivers up to date is a pain.
- Comment on The 8BitDo Ultimate 2 Wireless Controller is a top premium-feeling controller 4 weeks ago:
It’s a fantastic controller. The only flaw IMO is a lack of rubberized grip. I added a little grip tape and now I prefer it to my old Elite 2.

Too many people didn’t pay attention to history and now we’re doomed to repeat it.

- Comment on 'Starter homes' cost at least $1 million in over 200 U.S. cities, Zillow data finds 1 month ago:
All of your question are answered right at the beginning of the article:
“Zillow defines “cities” as distinct housing markets, which can include large suburbs, towns or boroughs within major metro areas. “Starter homes” are defined as properties in the bottom third of home values within a given market. That means these aren’t luxury listings — they’re the least expensive homes available in each city.”
- Comment on 8BitDo Ultimate 2 is getting full Steam Input support for more buttons 1 month ago:
Yes! I picked on of these up a few weeks ago to replace my Elite controller. This will be a pretty major upgrade.

This is a breitbart article. Of course it isn’t accurate.
- Comment on Nintendo confirms $90 price for full Breath of the Wild experience on Switch 2 2 months ago:
After the Wii, I sword that I was never going to buy another console just to play Zelda. I eventually got a Switch to play Breath of the Wild and basically nothing else (I owned a total of 4 Switch games). When they sued the shit out of the Yuzu people, I decided it was time to finally live up to the promise I had made. I gave the Switch, which I hadn’t touched in years, to a friend to use as a gift for his kids and committed to never giving Nintendo another penny.
I’ll reevaluate that stance if they ever make significant changes to their practices.
- Comment on Nintendo confirms $90 price for full Breath of the Wild experience on Switch 2 2 months ago:
I recently broke a decade plus boycott of EA products to purchase Split Fiction for full price. My friend asked me to play It Takes Two with him for free through friend pass and I was so impressed by it that I wanted to support the devs. Besides, the whole point of the boycott was to “vote with my wallet” and I want them to know that I want more games with that kind of quality made by teams that are (seemingly) happy to be doing what they do.

You Nintendo shills are hilarious. Have fun shell8mg out premium prices for out of date tech.
- Comment on Thoughts on Mario Kart World 2 months ago:
Then don’t buy it. Buying it tells them it’s ok to keep raising prices.
- Comment on Please choose one 2 months ago:
It’s the way they go after fan projects like rom hacks, the way they continuously rerelease 30 year old gameswith minor tweaks for full price, their obsession with destroying emulators, the fact that all of their IP is exclusive to their console, their games rarely go on sale, and their prices are far too high considering their hardware is like 3 generations behind the curve.
