But, what VPNs? This is never described. All in general or specific ones?
- Comment on Walmart Is Putting Digital Labels That Change Prices Instantly on Every Store Shelf in America 2 weeks ago:
And they’re already dogshit in practice. Some of them are broken, we can’t tell where to put things because the stupid digital interface glitches. People misplace them. They aren’t properly installed or they’re a pain to install. They don’t even blink when you try to find something.
Oh yeah, what a wonderful investment…

One piece of shit dies, another piece of shit comes and takes their place.
- Comment on Is school cafeteria food in America trash? 2 weeks ago:
Nostalgia kids would have you believe that it was always good. However, I would say it was maybe 15% of the time that it was good. It wasn’t like you had a plethora of options as to what to eat. Some of the options did suck for the week and that was all you get, too bad if you are wanting something else.
In High School, it was slightly better with the access of vending machines and the ability to sometimes buy food but then again, that involved money. Whatever provided to you, was marginally better, but still the same odds at the end of the day.
- Comment on What's your opinion on post-game content? do you do it? or are you done with the game when the credits roll? 2 weeks ago:
Depends on the game. Most times it’s not even worth it because post-game after beating the game, usually means another round with only tiny differences.
I’ve done Super Mario World multiple times, completing the Star Road and changing the koopas to have the mario heads. I’ve done The Messenger to get the Wind Shuriken, which honestly in my opinion, wasn’t worth gathering all the power seals for.
Elder Scrolls II Daggerfall, didn’t really feel like there was anything post-content that is there to it, after doing everything. You just continue until you’re bored, which you could already do anyways by ignoring the main quest after getting the letter to meet that lady in a tavern so you wouldn’t be soft-locked out of it.
It just depends, if there’s more meat to the bone there is, then maybe, if not and it’s just going another round of everything again then no.
- Comment on What are your hallmark games? What games have shaped how you view games? 2 weeks ago:
Minecraft and Terraria are to me the definitive mining/crafting games you can find.
Stardew Valley sets the bar for farming sim.
The Messenger holds a nice contender of a well-balanced game, one of the best in its ranks.
There will be no better ARPG contender to me than the Diablo series, even if Diablo has made some questionably dumb choices.
The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall/Fallout 1 and 2 are some games that demonstrate the importance of depth and how your choices matter in their games. Something I feel nearly all RPGs should have.

Actually, no, I disagree.
If anybody pays top dollar for branded material, congrats, you’ve proven to everyone how much of a gullible corporate shill you are. Wear that badge of shame proudly!
- Comment on RetroDECK Is More Than Emulation: An Interview with the Devs (my article!) 2 weeks ago:
I don’t quite like how the d-pad, buttons and analog sticks are kicked up so high. Analog sticks and the pads should’ve been swapped places.
- Comment on What games are you picking up March 19th? 3 weeks ago:
The sales have not been exciting for me for quite a long time now. Everything on my wishlist, has sat at 10% ~ 15% for years, even when the games themselves have aged to where a deep discount should’ve happened but didn’t.
So now I just pirate whatever interests me, I have too much to play anyways.
