    We went to a party for it yesterday. Though I admit, I could not care less about sports, so I was just there for the wings, the beer and the company. I did end up sitting on the couch in front of the game, but I was just playing Dragon Quest 3 on my handheld the entire time... I'm in a bad way...

    Someday I'll figure out how to train. What do you primarily use your image generation for? I would be curious to do more with mine, but the only thing I really ever use image gen for is to make stupid pictures to send to my friends. I did recently get a new battery backup for my server...

    I honestly didn't expect Windows to be significantly faster on my Surface Go versus Linux. Granted, it's Microsoft hardware, so it kind of makes sense, but even after installing the Surface Kernel and getting rid of a bug that pegged the CPU to only 1100Mhz, Linux was just dead-ass slow on this...

    Yeah, exactly. We had one installed in our first house we bought and after we sold that one and moved, we loved it so much we needed another. Works great during the summer without the high bill AC can bring. Though after having our solar panels installed a few years ago, we can run our 3 window...

    That does look fun, actually. I think I might need to give it a spin. I'm still on Blade of Agony, though I didn't really play any yesterday. I'm on the second mission, deep into it and boy it's gotten challenging. I'm lacking any ammo for anything and the Germans just tear me to pieces. I...

    You still haven't mentioned if you have separate taps for hot and cold in your sink...you're starting to make me think your whole country is also a part of the conspiracy and has been kept from the secrets of hydrological temperature regulation. Or maybe your Civ just hasn't researched it yet...

    Honestly, the real question about Aussie homes: do you guys do the weird one faucet for hot, one faucet for cold like the British and the Kiwi's?

    My friend sent a video recently that was AI, but clearly an attempt to disguise it. It was basically some "old timer" talking about modern things, but it was really cropped and had this filter over it that looked like it was filmed in maybe the early 80's, which made no sense. Soon as I noticed...

    Who are your favorite Japanese Developers?

    Huh, guess I didn't notice that abo--arrr matey, ayye ne'er noiticed thar priices. Sorry, dunno what happened there. Anyway, on my hacked 3DS and PSP, never did actually notice that... I still would like to finish P3P one day, as I was enjoying the story and characters, but I'm in the final...

    Who are your favorite Japanese Developers?

    I'm probably just going to go with the generic answer and say FromSoft. I haven't played a ton of Japanese games and there's even fewer that I've really loved or enjoyed extensively. I guess I might say Atlas, as I very much enjoyed most of Persona 3 Portable, though I still haven't finished...

    I definitely get into these ruts as well. For me, it often comes down to playing something completely different or even playing in a new way. One thing that's really working for me lately is to just play stuff on my tablet. There's something relaxing and easy about just poking the screen on a...

    This old 2015 MSI laptop has been freezing on my son for quite awhile now. Initially I thought it maybe just needed a reinstall, so I wiped it and put Windows 11 on it (which it technically doesn't support with a 4th gen Intel processor), which fixed things for awhile, but then it recently...

    That sounds super tedious and would also drive me away. I'm still playing The Case of the Golden Idol. Think I was on "level" 6 last night, the one with a murder in the Salon of a house. It had so many blank spaces for figuring out what happened in the scene, I was absolutely shocked that I...
