Fuck, even fallout 4 got that right lol
- Comment on who lives in a house under a rock 3 days ago:
Honestly yeah, I’d absolutely live here. Trying to fix up an aging base house well enough to sell it so we can move has me deeply frustrated at the idea that our building material lasts 30 years and our packaging lasts 30,000.
- Comment on Why do people are so fine with Warframe monetization methods? 5 days ago:
Picked up warframe in 2016, I think I have something like 5k hours in it with some breaks while I waited for the account move and off and on because I’m the last of my clan.
I’ll preface by saying I’ve spent around $300 on the game in that time, including purchasing the prime pack for Wukong as he’s my main. That said, I wholly champion DE’s minorization for three big reasons.
-
Player trades - if you look at my account I’ve got well over $2k worth cosmetics and decor. The difference between what I paid and what I have is entirely due to selling rivens and prime parts on the market and the generalities of random players that I’ve bonded with on long grinds.
-
Communty feedback - every* time DE has dropped the ball on a grind or a price, the community out cry leads to an immediate fix on the issue and account refunds of the platinum and resources uses by anyone who paid full price. Every time I come back from a break I get at least a load of forma from reworks they’ve done to something I own.
*to this day they still haven’t dealt with the Garuda release pack and the hema but I’m the only one complaining about the prior and the later is a meme.
- Plat is just for flex - yes, doubling drops and instant builds feel exciting, but if you just casually play through the start chart and the various missions, you get all the resources you ever need. Weapons and frames are really cheap to build if you just play the game. Staggering your foundry builds gives you time to Max them out before the next one finished. Everything that actually matters in the game can be earned by playing the game. While I would complain about the ability to buy most of the late game things, the game is co-op. When I land in a match with a whale, he’s not paying to make me lose, he’s paying to make us win. I’ve never needed a doubler to get what I need, just the right build, a friend, and about 2 hours keeping your abilities up in the right room.
All in all, that FOMO you’re feeling is something trained into you by Destiny, I had it bad when I was playing. Warframe doesn’t remove content, doesn’t hold out, and your play experience doesn’t diminish if you don’t get the limited edition bobble head that comes with the prime releases. I’ve put the money I’ve spent into this game because it’s genuinely given me far more than that worth of fun and engagement. That’s $30 bucks a year over the time I’ve been playing, I spend more than that on DVDs.
Just dive in and do things, if you want to get something specific, ask in the chat, the discord, the reddit, or any of the other community resources, one of us ancients will gladly carry you through it. DM me if you need any mods, help with the basic eidolon hunt, or need credits.

- Comment on Day 605 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 1 week ago:
In one server, a friend of mine had redstone tunnels all over his island. Over the corse of weeks I tapped holes under his redstone and hid chickens every 40 blocks. By the end there wasn’t a single block you could stand anywhere on the island where you couldn’t hear a chicken.
- Comment on Lutris now being built with Claude AI, developer decides to hide it after backlash 2 weeks ago:
I tried so hard to like Lutris, but I’ve never managed to get it to work in any way. It actually lead me to dual booting win10 just to play some games before steam really doubled down on running things

Microstiff could give me the IP and still get a better game than Bethesda has ever made and I’m about as qualified as the dumpster across the street from Todd’s office.

Been in a prolonged battle with a Bradford pear in my yard. Say what you will about their flaws, I’ve never cooked over a tastier wood and I’ve never seen a tree grow faster than I can burn it. I’m gonna miss that pearwood flavor when i finally win.

They have a literal monopoly on the service and the analytical data the sell makes more money then advertising ever could.

Don’t need to. You’re gorgeous, as each human naturally is. Any stance to the opposite is based purely on opinion and those only go as far as the people that hold them.

I was using sync thing and syncfork previously, but they didn’t allow me to sort my new files into the existing structures without getting on the computer and sorting them that way. Id like to cut out the middleman that is my desktop and just move things directly to the server if possible.

- Comment on I never saw the twilight zone. To pick it up should I was the old vs new? Or is it much of a difference? 2 weeks ago:
Start at the very beginning and just watch every episode. A lot of tge older ones aren’t amazing or memorable or ground breaking, but every single one of them is enjoyable and the amazing ones are spaced out well enough that you have time to ponder them funing thd lesser episodes.
- Comment on Finally tried this minecraft thing. Hows my build? 3 weeks ago:
This is a big part of why I still play. At a certain point, the blocks and pixels fall away and you find yourself gazing down into a lush valley with all the awe and reverence of someone seeing it for real.
As someone who while likely never escape the flat hell I was born into, that’s enough to keep my flame aglow.
- Comment on Candy cigarettes are illegal because they encourage kids to smoke 3 weeks ago:
They’re still sold here in Kansas as both. They also sell them as “candy sticks” in little packets with popular characters on it so everyone can talk about how they used to look like malboros.

- Comment on I'll take 4 and 8 3 weeks ago:
4&5. I already have the perfect partner so 1 is out. Body swap loses that partner, so 8 is out. Everything else here is just free money with extra steps and my disdain for paying for things isn’t so great that I’d limit my options to avoid actually seeing the bill. 20mil initial investments and 30k monthly income while the rest goes to more investments.
Now, that’s 360,000 personal and 11,640,000 investment annually. With this money being obtained presumably through magic, I would not need to dedicate time to making it. With the allotted free time, I would purchase or establish an independent bank to store my income as well as a small investing firm to manage my wealth. They would be personally vetted, paid handsomely, and I would dedicate time to accommodate their needs and engage with them. They’re not my servants, they’re literally the people making this work.
With this established, I would first buy up large swaths of the entertainment industry in rural areas across the US. Bowling allies, movie theatres, pools, gyms, things like that as well as at least one advertising and PR firm. These become socialized. Free access for anyone under 20, memberships are income based sliding scales. Employees are paid fair marker value. I will also broker deals with aldi to begin putting stores in every population bigger than 2k. These ventures are subsidized by my own magic money and dividends from my investments.
After effectively white washing my image with philanthropy for the first 5 years, I will retain a retinue of private mercinaries recruited from military and paramilitary bodies based on their commitment to my cause and picked for a complex mix of loyalty and willingness to do awful things for a good reason. Through a combination of
briberylobbying and the liberal application of men with violence, I will begin to curate government policy. Incentivizing the nationalization of businesses too big to fail, utilities, and infrastructural maintenance needs. Using my network of entertainment venues I will away public opinion in the support of this and candidates I approve of through the application of advertising and psychological warfare techniques.At year 10, I will begin orchestrating the removal of the wealthy elite. Most live lavish and reckless lifestyles and accidents happen. The key point here is that you can’t buy a billionaire but you can buy their dealer and I’m sure he’s not getting paid as much as my bowling alley attendants make. With the pool of competing interests dwindling, I will return to step 1 and continue my efforts to effectively make fun free.
And this is why I’m not allowed to have money.
