Bah bah bah bum! ♫
  • Well it did make me laugh...

  • Work from home
  • It is wild to me, even as I have one work app on my phone. It's only there because it allows me to clock in and out, and my personal phone is significantly higher spec'd than the work provided phone.

    Even so, I cannot be contacted via this app and cannot perform work with it outside of the geo-restricted area.

  • having issues with Vivaldi stuttering
  • Man yeah I'd love that so much.

  • Games where an emulated console version outclasses the PC port?
  • Yeah I fell for that Symphonia port. Big sadge.

    It's apparently gotten better with updates, but I've not tried it in awhile and I'd rather just emulate it.

  • Games where an emulated console version outclasses the PC port?
  • Final Fantasy VII. The PC port is kinda bad and PSX emulators are very very good.

  • Truly though, it is a nice smell.
  • Someone is writing smut for Charlie.

    Although I guess right now it'd be Magic instead of Yu-Gi-Oh.

  • Vulkan or DirectX on Linux?
  • Vulkan, always, just to echo the other comments. This game runs pretty well too, at least in my experience. MP even works!

  • favourite drink
  • This is so beautiful.

  • X is about to start hiding all likes
  • I think you mean the square peg in the round hole my friend.

  • T-Mobile Will Shield You from Internet Outages for $30 a Month
  • Will they also shield us from their data breaches?

  • [Discussion] Do you still use your Steam Deck much?
  • I use mine pretty often. I mostly play retro and indie games. It's an amazing piece of kit.

  • Streetwear (by Chaesu)
  • Minah is best girl.

  • Aww, what have you done Clarkson? The "Check Warp Core" light is blinking like mad!
  • I love these so much. They never fail to be wonderfully weird and dumb.

  • milo by a nose
  • That is a boopable snoot.

  • "Do you sell TVs?"

    This one was a little over a decade ago, when plasma TVs were still manufactured and sold, and LCD TVs were still catching in terms of awesomeness.

    I was a young, bright-eyed electronics associate working for the big "blue and yellow save money" company. This particular day was a steady but peaceful day, and I was working the counter, cashing people out and directing them to various areas in the department where they could find things.

    I had just finished ringing a customer out for a PS3 game when a fella walks up to the counter and the following exchange took place:

    Strange Customer: "Hey man... do you sell TVs?"

    Me: caught off guard by the question, I slowly turned to the TV wall that sat in full view roughly 30ft away, filled with 30+ different TV models, then slowly turned back to him "Sir, I don't think I can help you."

    SC: "Oh alright man, no problem."

    And then he just left. It remains, to this day, the most bizarre customer interaction I have ever had, and I would not be surprised if it was a part of a YouTube prank video. I've been at the store I work at for over 13 years now, and nothing has topped this one for weirdness.
