Ugh man, Concord gets fan servers but I can’t play BF1943 anymore…cruel world.

I completely understand where you’re coming from, no shame in that game!

If I were 20 years older, I’d be happy to spec out a mini-ITX build. But with a 3 year old running my life, my time is limited and if the price of this is right, it might make more sense for where my current life is at.

Pretty exciting announcement! I was thinking about building a new rig and retiring my current machine with a 3080 to the TV. This might change that.

What I’m more curious about is how are the folks at Microsoft reacting to this news, since it sounds like the next Xbox was essentially going to be a PC. With Valve doing it first and the fact that the Steam store is so huge, I’m imagining this makes them a bit nervous.

Around 32, when I started working for Blizzard Entertainment.

WTF…

You shut your dirty whore mouth

I’m right there with you on the Steam Deck! Its still sad to see and it gives me PTSD when Sega killed the Dreamcast early in its life and got into publishing 3rd party only. Having only 2 console makers in the space makes me fear for innovation and creativity. The silver lining this time around is PC and the success of indie games recently.

As a father who fails at trying to convince my 3 year old daughter to try something else besides Mac and Cheese and grapes every.single.night for dinner, you’re winning at this parenting thing.

Is that from Wat Rong Khun?

My coworkers would always tell me that when I worked in restaurants, but I never really figured it out with my A.D.D. brain and being distracted with serving customers. Now that I see it written out, that is helpful!

The transaction remains open until the end of the shift. At the end of the shift, the checks are closed out with the updated tip amount included in the final charge.

Going back to the picture…thanks, now I have to confirm the restaurants math is correct and I’m bad at math.

Yup, I get it. We’re in LA and a bunch of our friends and neighbors are afraid to go out. It’s such a stupid situation.

Congrats on retirement! What are you planning on doing with your newfound freedom?

I really don’t understand why this trilogy needs to exist. Nostalgia I guess? These games were terrible and always a rent from Blockbuster for the weekend type jam and be glad you didn’t spend money on actually owning them.

Facebook absolutely builds ghost profiles for people who don’t have a Facebook profile. You see all of those “Like” buttons on non-Facebook websites? Those are cookies that are essentially tracking you. They may not have your first/last name or other personal data as a regular profile, but they can build a pretty damn good composite of you.

If you enjoyed Bioshock, it’s essentially Bioshock in space. Well…wayyyy more ‘space’ than System Shock, considering the gravity mechanics that Prey uses.
