I've yet to find a game that I couldn't play (though knowing me I probably forgot one or two). It's mainly mods that I've not been able to implement, as some of them require running an exe file.

However I've had very helpful people tell me I can do all that in a wine instance or something similar so mainly it's just my own laziness (and lack of understanding about how to "do it in a wine instance") that's holding me back from installing fancy modpacks or playing the latest Stalker gamma version.

Also i don't play multiplayer stuff so the anti-cheat thing issues don't usually apply to me. So there's that.

Yeah every programmer I know loves not being exposed to the manager who just "has a question" or just want to "check in".

I encourage everyone to check out the Knowledge Fight podcast, specifically the "Formulaic Objections" episodes series.

It's "annotated" audio footage from the depositions of Alex and his coworkers/conspirators.

It is the best evidence that he's just making it all up, and trying to make as much money as possible while dodging any kind of accountability.

Its also "annotated" by two real funny fellas. Worth a listen for sure.

Also some phenomenal work by the lawyers just constantly giving him just enough rope to hang himself.

I didn't realise he was washing his face. Thought it was all just body fluids coming off his face.

I was impressed.

No, you're right, Ms Noem. The men's appearances were not mocked at all by the South park team.

/s

So many things out right now where the protagonist's superpower is being old and tough/wise. And all the opponents are "young upstarts/punks"

"The old man" probably a but on the nose.

Tulsa King, Yellowstone etc

Regardless of if this is true or a joke, I feel that it would be sarcastic enough to count as the band having existed.

Oh wow the more I find out, the more tacky I feels.

Isn't Holmes usually quite polite? Plus he's supposed to be unusually physically strong.

Its just a way some people say robot.

Often older folks or with regional accents.

All these awards going out and none going to Trump.

They're playing a dangerous game ignoring his achievements in all these fields.

/s for the chronically unsarcastic

Chat, is this AI?

And by that I mean Miller himself. Is he a robit.

Oh wow also "homes" (Holmes) vs "house" really makes it less subtle than I thought...

Any ads that aren't "this product is available" and designed to get you to do things against your best interest.

"Use us instead of a competitor"

"Please associate this product with this idealised version of yourself (or your life)"

Maybe this is just me projecting my trauma after finishing Mad Men.

Bu also maybe not.

Sending this to every Dutch person I know

Haha thanks I found it eventually but it was some entertaining confusion in the meantime

I guess I now know what my Dad is getting for his birthday...

I went looking for it and found only a book of the same name written by William Harwar Parker, in 1864.

It's less entertaining...

Haha he could have just written three to five books instead.

Haha I don't think she works with furries.

Sorry, I mean "your Friend's dog"

If you can do the audiobook version of Daughters War, I'd highly recommend it.

The reader is super charismatic and is a woman with some kind of latin accent that fits the tone and mood of the viewpoint characters so well.

It's like being at a poetry reading in postwar Spain.
