I didn’t realize you could put the steam deck to sleep with a game still running. I had assumed it would cause game issues.

When I think about what I would do if I suddenly found myself transported to another world, the last thing I would be doing is looking for a job as a mercenary. As stupid as a lot of the plot is, I really like Striving for a Luxury Liner simply because the MC recognizes that he’s not cut out to be an adventurer and becomes a merchant instead.
The only isekai I’ve read that properly utilized the isekai genre was Release that Witch since the MC’s “cheat” is his knowledge of mechanical engineering. He kicks off his own little industrial revolution to defend his territory.
My main critique of the genre is how lazy it’s done. There’s nothing wrong with having the MC reincarnated, transported, or made overpowered. One Punch Man has a massively overpowered MC but it’s still really good. The problem is that they’re all low effort cookie cutter stories that are just checking items off a list.
They’re also fairly unrealistic. “Gasp…is this that isekai thing I’ve been reading about? I guess I’ll go join the Adventurer Guild and get a super dangerous job killing monsters despite the fact that I’ve never been in a dangerous situation before.”
There’s no way all these random people will just calmly accept finding themselves in another world with no freaking out or depression setting in first.
As a programmer, I consider The User to be the enemy. No matter how thoroughly I seemingly test my code, the second the user gets their hands on it, it breaks left and right from all the crazy shit they do.
The difference this time is that my computer literally can’t run Win 11. I’m not throwing away a perfectly good PC just because of Win 11’s hardware requirements.
Exactly. I cut and paste all the time but I make sure I know what the code is doing first before I actually add the code.
I imagine he’s like Ghost Rider and can tell with a glance if someone is guilty or not by seeing their soul. If the entity has a soul, then he knows. Goldfish? Probably not. Sapient reindeer? Definitely.
How is it getting better battery life? Are OLEDs more energy efficient or does it have a bigger battery?
My favorite analogy is: You don’t have to choose what’s for dinner, but you’re going to be forced to eat whatever was chosen.
Ever since I was old enough, I’ve voted in every single election I was eligible for. I don’t care what people say or how unlikely it was for my candidate to win, I would still get out and vote.
Smurfs 2?!?! I didn’t even know there was a Smurfs 1.
Although I haven’t used it since college, I actually liked C++ especially once I understood pointers.
Chaotic neutral isn’t that bad when you’re doing programming since the extra vertical space is really convenient.
I’ve been lawful neutral ever since the pandemic forced work from home.
I have similar feelings regarding all the RGB lighting on computer hardware. I have to drape a towel over my mouse just so I can sleep in peace.
I’m really bad with this in games. I even hoarded iron back when I still played Minecraft simply because it was a resource I couldn’t infinitely produce.
Cobblestone generator = use only cobblestone tools
I have to ask then: what’s the difference between a good game and an entertaining game?
From my perspective, games exist to be entertaining so if a game is entertaining then it is a good game. I don’t know what other metric would be used to determine if a game is good.
What I find surprising is that this is done by hand. I would have assumed it would be some assembly line process.
I had to read both of your comments and then really work my brain to figure it out.
The Nesting Box is $70 and it’s a box designed to hold Wingspan and all it’s expansions. I can see the use of such a thing because it’s currently a bit of a pain setting up a game when the components are spread out over multiple boxes but I just don’t think it’s worth the cost.
The Nesting Box does not come with the base game or any expansions and is solely used to store those items.

I love Wingspan. It’s a great game and the expansions make it even better (I have Europe And Oceania).
I’ve thought about buying the Nesting Box for it too but it’s so expensive for what is essentially an empty box.
What’s funny is the “blonde bombshell in a catsuit” turned out to be one of the best characters on the show.
