I like to include profanity in all my comments for spiciness.

Getting Cicret Bracelet vibes from this one.

It was pretty bad. He missed a lot of school. I think he ended up repeating grade six. I never saw him much after that, but I did hear that he got married to another person I went to school with eventually, so presumably his life wasn’t ruined or anything.

There was a solar eclipse when I was in grade six. One of my classmates was riding his bike home, and was stupidly looking at the eclipse, and got hit by a car. The irony.

Or when you have a problem that seems adjacent to another problem that many people have, but their solution doesn’t work for your niche case.

Metroid Dread, Stardew Valley, and Baldur’s Gate 3.

The former on Yuzu’s last build on a nice 32 inch monitor with a big controller that doesn’t cramp up my hands. It’s pretty hard, but I did just get past a part I hear a lot of people quit on, so there’s that. I can’t imagine trying to play it with Joycons. I’d probably snap them in half.

I trust auto save in… Souls games.

This is baffling. In Korea, you pay up front. You pay for a month, go to the gym for a month. Pay for a year, go to the gym for a year. The more time you pay for, the better the deal you get. WTF would anyone subscribe to a gym? That’s not incentive to go to the gym, that’s incentive to quit going to the gym.

Download GODOT and learn the scripting language and the shader language. Make a game! Or at least neat shader art.

Bonus answer: Csound. Make funky noises with code.

Yeah, Samsung charges more for their products here than they do in other, even richer countries because they can. Korea’s economy is super protectionist. Understandably so since Hyundai, Samsung, LG, et al basically run the country.

They’re not quite as terrible as their reputation. Yeah, they’ve definitely got some of the worst episodes of Trek ever, but there are good ones in there, too.

That was my thought. I spent the last 48 hours in various airports, and this briefly looked normal to me.

No, no. This is literally steeped ice cubes.

I’ve noticed YouTube acting funny in Firefox, too. Full-screen no longer works on our Galaxy Tab A using Firefox with ublock. On my PC, YouTube seems to randomly switch audio devices to output to. Neither of those problems exist in Chrome or the YouTube app. They didn’t exist in Firefox either until recently. Almost like it’s intentional…

Yeah, as far as child stars go, he turned out more well adjusted than the vast majority it seems.

Nyota on a Toyota

Hey, we’re all nerds here. It’s totally viable.

I’m too lazy to make images, but also:
Spock on a dock
Kirk on a clerk
Pavel on a gavel
Uhura’s got me stumped though.

I never realized they were the same person before. I went to Wikipedia and found:

Schultz has also written for Breitbart where he likened liberalism to mental illness, and has similarly suggested that President Barack Obama’s administration may intend to force sex reassignment surgery onto him and others.

Sigh… Turns out he’s a raging conservative.

Treasure! Dynamite Headdy, Gunstar Heroes. Bangai O. Not to mention the shmups. Damn they made some amazing games with super cool mechanics. Last I checked, they made a few anime tie-in games or something in the 2010s, but nothing since then.
