I just wonder what happened to the “Humble Lefover” thread. No news since yesterday…
Speaking of news, I was able to take the COVID vaccine on this week and my next shot will be on August, all thanks to a written authorization from my psychiatrist.
However I also managed to damage my coccyx badly on my bathroom so it’s gonna take a while for me to recover.
Maybe they paused it this time. The only key I had left over was Fury Unleashed.
Good news on the shot and too bad about the tailbone. May need to get one of those STANDING desks… 
That seems the case, and thanks.
I’ll be using a gel bag when I can.
That reminds me of a story I read some ten or twenty years ago…
A gamer walks into a bar…
…and asks the barkeep “you got a console to play on?” And the barkeep says “yeah, but only have one game for it.” The gamer shrugs, orders a cider and sits down to play.
While he’s playing another guy walks in and says “hey, that guy with the cider is playing my game!” And the barkeep asks “oh did you want a turn?” And he says “no, I mean I’m the developer, I made the game.” So the barkeep says “oh shit, have a free beer then.” So the developer takes the beer and sits next to the gamer to watch him play.
Then a third guy walks in and says to the barkeep “oh shit, that guy with the beer is a famous developer!” And runs over, kneels in front of the dev, puts dev’s dick in his mouth and just goes to town deepthroating it.
Then the guy sucking on the dick turns to the gamer and tries to talk to him with the dick in his mouth. This distracts the gamer and he dies.
Enraged, he asks “why the fuck were you distracting me?” And the guy takes the dick out of his mouth and says “I was trying to tell you my review of the game.” So the gamer asks “why would you try to review a game with the dev’s dick in your mouth?”
“Because I work for IGN.”
Didn’t take scrolling very far before I saw a blue checkmark crying about harassment of game “journalists”.
I was watching this dev stream and I heard they announce a familiar name asking one of the questions… 
Good question, what was the answer?
Pure stat buffed difficulty levels are so boring.
Stat buffing. per difficulty selection and per party size.
I tagged the video at the moment of the question, but it’s pretty much what Pylinaer said, unfortunately. It’s so rare to have an interesting difficulty scale mechanic in games, there are so many iterations of the common one that I can’t even think of a game that did something different anymore. Giving new tricks and smarter AI per difficulty is so good for the replayability. Some games make it a big deal for you to unlock the “harder” difficulty when you beat the game, but it’s not interesting and usually a waste of time, everything is a sponge and now you they one shot you, great!
Yeah the only other thing that changes are parry windows are shorter. Other than that, it’s what Py said.
What is wrong with people?
Aww, I wanted to see it all slosh out as soon as he started moving.
Also maybe alert the station attendants and or call the cops yourself rather than just film the idiot for social media?
the thing is that might not be illegal depending on where that is; apparently u can just fill bags of gas and throw them in your trunk there too so…
the funny thing is u’d expect to see crazy shit like that over here, while the truth is u can’t buy gas here except by having them put it straight in the gas tank of your vehicle (u can’t pump gas yourself either, nowhere at all; it’s only done by employees [or military service conscripts in gas stations owned by the army, lol]), so even if u ran out of gas and somehow made it to the gas station, even with a proper jerrycan, you’re tough out of luck, and they will refuse to sell it to you (I’ve seen it happen more than once) and u have to tow or push your car all the way there to fill it up
(i guess it’s both to counter hoarding as well as to make it harder to use gas for “other” things which might be security related)
No I’m pretty sure the US has nation wide laws regarding proper containers for storing and transporting gasoline. People who disregard those laws don’t nullify their existence. I recall a fair bit of complaining going around a few years back when they changed regulations surrounding the nozzle in particular, now any container that is legal to store gasoline in has to have some special kind of safety nozzle that no one seems to like.
okay, just looked it up, and apparently you indeed have to put it in jerry cans, but u can legally transport up to 15 of those in your trunk 
@Fraggles I did see there was a whole bunch of ppl also discussing regulation regarding fixed tanks on pick up trucks or roofs etc., and there were issues there like the one u mentioned, so i guess that is more applicable to these types of fixed tanks etc.
Why hasn’t humanity discovered a way to inject information directly into your brain? Imagine sitting down and injecting a book’s content directly in the matter of seconds or minutes, with perfect recollection. 
Because we still have a rather rudimentary understanding of how the brain functions at all. The building of new pathways that we understand as learning is something we couldn’t possibly manage to alter at our current level. If it was a matter of simply chemistry I’m sure we could have done it, but it’s a physical matter of growing cells which unfortunately do not even come remotely close to being describable through logic gates, which is the closest system we have to creating something that can “think”.
Also I don’t think experiencing a book in such an instant manner would be particularly entertaining.
I was thinking more along the lines of educational literature, rather than literature for entertainment.
If Fullmetal Alchemist is anything to go by, it would not be a pleasant experience.
Plus it won’t help if you don’t learn by reading the textbooks (cough math cough)
