Truly the end of an era

Vimm’s just got a ton of games taken down too. They’re still up, but at a significantly reduced capacity.

The humanoids we evolved from were at one point, not the only humanoids around. We coexisted with other, different species (neanderthals being an example). Homosapien is just the one that survived.

I’ve not read ‘B’ is for Burger personally, but The Shining is one of the best novels I’ve ever read. I always used to think that Stephen King must have fundamentally misunderstood something to dislike the film as much as he does, or that it was simply a matter of the book always being better than the movie, but after reading it, I no longer have any confusion as to why he feels the way he does. I still love the movie, Kubrick was an artist, but it pales in comparison. I can’t recommend it enough.

I’m just gonna leave this here

You’re welcome.

It at it’s worst in my opinion with streaming services like Netflix and Hulu. They’re all starting to get so fragmented that they’re not much better than just paying for cable anymore, and that was their whole appeal to begin with. Now you have to sub to like 3 or 4 different services to get all the content you want (sometimes more) and they all seem to be phasing out their ad free tiers. It’s like they forgot what made them so popular to begin with.

“We think there is a fundamental misconception about piracy. Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem. If a pirate offers a product anywhere in the world, 24 x 7, purchasable from the convenience of your personal computer, and the legal provider says the product is region-locked, will come to your country 3 months after the US release, and can only be purchased at a brick and mortar store, then the pirate’s service is more valuable.”

I would like to nominate this comment for hot take of the year.

Gender bent, big tiddie goth Bugs Bunny 'bout to make me act up 🥵

It’s a leftover from reddit. A comment would be marked as “edited” if you changed anything after posting it, and since some people are shitheads and change their comments to say completely different things after people have already replied to them it’s just a way to inform people that the edit you made to your comment was just to fix typos and not anything significant

That game is soooo good. The expansions are great too. I bought it on sale forever ago and never played. Booted it up on a whim randomly a few months ago and was totally consumed. Beat it so many times that I started researching speed run strats to see how fast I could beat it (which I never do). Can’t seem to beat it before the first winter like some people can, but I’ve beaten it just after so I’m happy.

Edit: also, fun fact, it has cross save support for the android version so you can continue your games on the go if you don’t have your deck on you.

Yeah that’s new to me. I have hundreds of movies since I run a Plex server for friends and family. Very concerning.

Been playing Mario Wonder that last 2 days, but I gotta put it down and finish The Legend of Zelda: The Monish Cap. I was on the last dungeon. Great game, I don’t know why I waited so long to play it.

You should check out Hell House by Richard Matheson. Stephen King called it “The scariest haunted house novel ever written” and that’s coming from the guy who wrote The Shining. (Also read The Shining if you haven’t already)

Sure did, not sure it was worth it tho.

Bro I was really constipated for a couple days once and I remembered that my Grandma used to drink that to help, so bought a bottle and drank a glass, one single coffee mug’s worth. I shit straight liquid, pissed out of my ass like 3 times, it burned. Prune juice is dangerous man.

Soon as I get off work I’m stoppin at the beer store on the way home. Been up since 6 am, I could use a couple drinks

As someone from Pittsburgh that also doesn’t really follow sports, I know that the Pirates lost and that that was pretty much expected

If enough people cry out for an easier way to access CS:GO then I would not be surprised in the slightest if valve heard them and did something about it. They’re pretty good about listening to their community and that’s more than I can say for Blizzard. That tends to be why people are less harsh when they screw up because they don’t have a history of screwing up and they tend to fix them too
