I can program and I have a mechanical engineering degree but I have super niche skills so I can’t get hired abroad. I always read that there’s a skills shortage in tons of countries but there aren’t any actual jobs to take.

Really? I thought it was ok at best.

I didn’t like SpiritFarer. For how much time it takes, there wasn’t enough game there. There was a lot of waiting, and it gets worse as the stories progress. They stretched a decent story out 4x longer than necessary.

Death road to Canada is pretty solid.

Spelunkey 2 is fantastic, albeit incredibly challenging.

I made a point to play every game in my library a few years ago. Every game got 2 hours at a minimum (unless they didn’t work). Played some real gems like Torment: Tides of Numenera, Tyranny, and World of Goo.

It’s actually worth the price. I’m also a patient gamer; this is the only full price game I’ve bought since 2020ish. 120 hours to beat the main campaign once is already worth it. There’s actually substance to the hype around the game. The only full price game I’ll buy in the foreseeable future is Silksong.

You burning out is a process failure. Work normal hours and let shit fail 🤷‍♂️. Say the reduction in hours is “health related” so they can’t pry.

I can tell you haven’t booted the game up recently because they completely redid the perk system and cyberware not too long ago.

CDPR has been atoning for the sin that was their failed launch for years. In my opinion, the game is a good game now.

Forgot about this one. I loved this phone back in the day. Remember when it would say DROID when you booted it up?

The LG Env2 would have been the perfect smartphone form factor, change my view.

This is cool. I had no idea about most of these.

Shame, because on its face, I thought it was a really interesting technology that solved an underlying infrastructure problem in the fediverse’s makeup.

Railbound is a fun one

It’s free in the US, so there’s ~360 million potential users they decided to make things harder for

They used to allow their client to be used to send unsecured SMS. Then they stopped. Whatever they thought they were doing, they killed the simplest path to onboarding laypeople they had. I kinda gave up on signal after that.

I chose this one because it had the piracy community

I had to refund armored core 6 because the first boss fight stuttered so much. I have a 3080, so not the best but definitely no slouch. No matter what settings I tweaked, it’d always drop to slideshow performance for 1-2 seconds at a time. Acceptable in a cheaper title, maybe, but not on a full price game.

Yeah this is what the larger chemical plants and oil refineries do on the Gulf coast- they have their own generation units.

The simple existence of XY females (Swyer syndrome, 1 in 100,000 females) and XX males (de la Chapelle syndrome, 1 in 20,000 males) makes this binary declaration imperfect.

Cool, now provide solutions that exist today for every other country
