Windows 11 is shockingly bad and an unfortunate sign of things to come. Slowly taking away the ability to customize. One of my computers was Win10 Education and I “upgraded” to 11, which installed Win11 Education. Win11 education seems to be not as bad as “pro” which is what my Dell optiplex micro came with. VERY terrible OS.

I first heard about Blues in an Electronics Boutique around maybe 1997.The dude working there was telling another kid that he has it bookmarked. And I, (yet another kid) overheard and here we are. Thanks Blue!

GinRummy that's a cool story! I was born in 83 and have heard my mom say "Gin Rummy" to describe some kind of card game, which I don't think I've played.

My name goes way back to when I was excited about that game (like 2000?) and at some point I forgot it was happening, there was so much else going on with games around that time with Half-Life 2, Unreal Tournament etc. When it finally came out I was not pleased but this mod seems like it might be an improvement on the gameplay. I did like the 20th Anniversary World Tour but only played a little bit of that too.
Sad story about Duke 3D... the guy I used to play multiplayer Dukematch, and a couple other games with, I totally lost touch with him when he went to a different high school. He has a kind of common name and I have been unable to find him despite a decent amount of effort. So frustrating! I might spend some more time searching him up today, I feel like we need to have a laugh about Duke Forever and how long it took to come out.

I reinstalled this and am stuck trying to carry the guy past the Tiger Claws lookouts by the shipping containers or whatever it is. I realize I can just fail the mission but I keep trying like the idiot I am.

This is possibly the worst "AAA" game I have ever played. I thought, no way could it be as bad as what people were saying and in this case I was wrong.
One good aspect is that the city is a pretty awesome design and does give the impression of a real "open world", also the concept of the Braindances is pretty cool, but I've yet to use it in a way that the game isn't just guiding me through and basically telling me exactly what to do.
I'll set aside an hour or two to play, and then realize nearly the entire time I spent talking, trying to advance the plot so I could go do something. Way too much dialogue, and why is my guy such a sarcastic A-hole?
Anyway, I would still avoid this game if I were on the fence and I'm not sure how they could substantially improve these baked in problems - bug fixes are great but the basic game is just freakin boring.

Been using it pretty much exclusively for many years now. Underappreciated by the masses and something we will sorely miss if it's ever gone.

Did not even know they were continuing that series, not that it means anything as I'm out of many loops. Will Joe Siegler be moderating the message boards to make sure no one says it's just a reskin of Duke 3D?

My wife & I started eating vegetarian about 8 months ago and it's been way easier than I thought. I've cheated a handful of times and accidentally ordered potato soup that had bacon bits in it (which I still ate) but overall we've been meat/fish free (still dairy) and it's been a positive change. Around the holidays I made "Impossible Chili" that, while I won't lie and say it was the same as regular chili, was definitely passable. It's a good way to change up the way you cook as well, but does take some trial & error with what you make and what you shop for. I think everyone should try it for a few weeks and see how it goes.

Man.. I need to sue the guy who made this Binding of Isaac game for getting me addicted so bad! Before this I was making progress in Outer Wilds, now I can barely remember where I'm at there. I really need to chill with this game but it is incredibly addicting. I'm only playing Rebirth, and probably should not ever touch the other two because my life can't handle it!!

Oh hey guys, I can get some extra visuals on MS flight Sim with an RTX 30 series. Time to go buy an NVIDIA RTX 30 series I guess! Should be pretty easy!

Not sure about the causes of motor vehicle deaths in 2020 but I can say for sure that almost every time I've had to drive lately it seems like I'm in Mad Max. It's really bad and dangerous. Cars give great freedom but wow what a disaster in pretty much every other way.

Beamer.. I'm sure if you're able to put in those kind of bids, you'll eventually get something. Like getting a "good job", owning a home is one of those things we're told to do in overt & subtle ways our whole lives, and then when the time comes and it's not possible, you feel angry, cheated, impatient.
I bought my house in 2010 and right after that, the area started getting hot (very urban/walkable area.) But now, it's just silly. It's a small house and we're ready to get some more space and not have so many neighbors around. Even though we could probably sell for good money, everything else has gone way up especially bigger places with yards. So while it's good that I won't have to get this place in "HGTV" condition to sell, I also think I'll wait until the pandemic is mostly over (if that ever even happens at this point) and hopefully the market calms down. I tell this story because I think part of why prices are so high is that even though the market seems crazy, I would think not a lot of people are selling - who wants to be moving now unless you really have to? But have no numbers etc. to back that up. Good luck to all out there.
