Hexbear rules. 40 year old liberal tech nerds who grew up on American propaganda hate it because they hate change and congregations of young people.

Good stuff here

ChatGPT is a cancer.

Lol at that title. I just saw some post talking about how “Netflix games was my most used service”. Like, that can’t be true, either that or you don’t really play games lol.

It some ways it’s better than mastodon. Easier to start than mastodon. Less variety than mastodon though. Give it a shot if you get the chance, not too bad.

Yikes. Tons of neo-lib shit takes in this comment section.

This is the kind of aesthetic that should be used everywhere, for everything.

Sometimes I’m glad I drive an old, barebones features car.

All that gameplay you described? Is ancient. The industry has moved on as you say. You clicked through menus and virtually rolled dice to do that. That’s so old, it predates video games themselves.

At least Starfield is more modern than turn based gameplay.

Exactly. It always seemed to me like the game was held together by tape and toothpicks. If Bethesda, EA, Ubisoft or some other bigger company had made the game, people would give it a 6-7/10 and would complain up and down about the mechanics.

It’s boring

My GF played it a lot and I saw so many bugs, quests breaking, and crazy difficulty spikes. But when Bethesda has some bugs? Oh my gosh, people start rioting. People just love to hate when they get the chance.

Stop complaining. Play it if you want, don’t if you don’t want to. People just like to be popular and liked. Everyone bandwagoned on Baldurs Gate being good but I can’t think of a type of game I hate more than that. Now everyone is bandwagoning on this because A- they don’t have an Xbox or a PC, or B- they want to be cool and alternative.

I mean come on, last week everyone was saying “omg Baldurs Gate has no microtransactions! Roleplaying! GOTY!” And now with Xbox/Bethesda making a game just like that, you guys instantly roast it for being…a Bethesda game.

Correct.

Hmm

Ahhh alucard, still cooking with gas I see? I’ll not ask you to switch to an electric stove, but I demand you stop baking at once!

Pro gamer move right there.

Exactly.

What else would you recommend? I’ve been using Gboard forever at this point, but I’m down to explore other options.

I grew up in somewhat of a food desert, coupled with an undiagnosed lactose intolerance, I avoided a lot of foods, including anything “spicy”. When I grew up, went to a gastro doc, I changed my diet and now I can’t not have spicy foods. I’m talking about dousing everything I eat in cayenne, habanero sauce, ghost pepper dip, everything. Why? I feel like you enjoy food for longer if you have to take a bit to get through the spice.
