I remember when I Ran by Flock of Seagulls was randomly playing in my head so I decided to listen to it. YouTube took that as me finding a new favourite band. I mostly listen to industrial metal.

In Central Helsinki, Finland they had an idea to put solar panels on the roofs. They decided not to, because it “ruined the rooftop view”. So, maybe something similar?

Used to be that when a play ended, the audience would rush the stage to pat the backs of the actors to show appreciation. After the Great Audience Stampede of 1733, they made a rule to not rush the stage and just use the other hand as a substitute of the actors’ backs. That rule became the social norm.

No not use any DLC equipment. While the combat in the game is far from perfect, using the viper gear (I think that’s what it’s called) ruins it further.

Did DougDoug do this? Sounds like DougDoug did this.

DOOM Eternal is pretty damn close to perfection. The only thing that keeps it from 10/10 for me is the length of the missions, especially on harder difficulties. I feel absolutely exhausted after just one level.

Then again, maybe I’m just old.

Yeah, it does look promising but knowing Valve time it’ll release sometime in the 2030s.

Amen Brother by The Winstons, more specifically the drum break on it. It’s by far the most used sample of any song ever, and once you know of it you’ll hear it everywhere kind of like the Wilhelm Scream in movies.

I hate these headlines. Fucking Half Life 3 could be announced.

What do you mean? They’re just songs about nice things, like bringing your own beer to a party, jumping on a pogo stick and shimmying until the break of dawn, yeah. Oh, and cocaine. Lots of cocaine.

If that floats your boat, give Fear of the Dark by Graveworm a listen. Iron Maiden lends itself really well to dark metal.

Not sure if this applies, but people still seem to think that Nine Inch Nails covered Hurt by Johnny Cash and not the other way round. That or they haven’t even heard the original.

The Social Network.

Wait, Anthony Kiedis!? That’s news to me.

Holy hell, I learned something today. Might be a matter of a language barrier, since in my native language the word “Satanism” by definition refers to LaVeyan Satanism, and there’s a distinct word for Satan’s/Devil’s worshippers. No idea how that happened.

You’re mixing things up. Satanism never believed in literal Satan, that’d be Satan’s /Devil’s Worshippers, a completely different group of people. “Satanism” was the word used by the ignorant western (mostly US) media during the “Satanic panic” during the '80s-'90s, and it stuck. The Satanic Bible, to which your “modern atheist Satanism” refers to, was written in '69. Nothing to do with literal Satan.

Some legend also typed out lyrics to Sandstorm.

I have heard similar complaints about performance from my friends, and I have solved most of them by simply suggesting they check their fans. Not just case fans, but the GPU/CPU, too. Check that they’re actually spinning and getting adequate airflow. Unplug and then vacuum them. You’d be surprised how much of a difference that can make.

I play exclusively female characters, and also go for the F/F romance when possible. I think it started with fighting games, because female characters were usually faster, and some shooters actually have smaller hitboxes for female models, so there are are actual advantages. But yeah, I’m mostly with you, to the point where my GF laughs at my characters always looking like me with boobs. We’re playing through Elden Ring together now, and I’m playing a (F) dex spellblade and she is making a (M) tank with a bonking stick.
