That’s an interesting perspective. I think I tried it last year so quite a long time after it was released.

I think it came up in a discussion of “what games can you only play once?” and I had just finished Outer Wilds which was also on that list so I was excited to find something to fill the Outer Wilds hole in my heart but Journey wasn’t it unfortunately.

I didn’t finish it but I have no clue how close to the end I got. I didn’t realize it was that short. Either way I did not enjoy it at all even though the internet raved about how good it was.

Everyone loved Journey but I returned it after just under two hours.

I use streaming to discover new music to pirate into my mp3/flac collection.

I thought the movie was pretty enjoyable but it shouldn’t have been named after the book. It would have been a decent zombie movie on its own.

I fucking hope not because I belong to lemmy.zip!

Lae’zel from BG3 and Haley from Stardew Valley.

The blue cotton candy one is pretty damn good.

Zero times. I feel like breaking up and getting back together isn’t a healthy way of dealing with relationship problems so when I’ve broken up with someone it’s been final.

It depends on if the speaker has a Boston accent or not. I don’t have a Boston accent so I say Wooster.

MA has a bunch of weird ones. Worcester is pronounced Wooster. Haverhill is Haiveral. Gloucester is Glawster. Quincy is Quinzee.

I self-hosted a TBC server for short period and I liked being able to crank up the default run speed and increase the drop rate of purple items.

Steely Dan - Aja

It’s a perfectly mastered album from start to finish.

I like that BG3 let’s you skip the voice dialogue but I wish there was an option to speed up the voice acting because I really love the voice acting and the story is great but I find myself spacing out during long cutscenes. I don’t want to skip them I just want them to speak quickly!

Yeah it was pretty much like this.

That’s awesome that it’s a diagnosed thing now. I didn’t start burping until I was in my mid 20s. I’m not sure what changed but I can burp when I need to now. My first few years of drinking beer were rough when I wasn’t able to burp.

You could just Google it. AGI stands for Artificial General Intelligence. It’s not the type of Ai that we have today.

There’s a great book about the pros and cons of AGI called “Superintelligence” by Nick Bostrom that I’d recommend reading if you have any interest in the topic.

I love my crocs but they certainly aren’t fancy to me. I think they look stupid but they’re great camp shoes and they’re perfect to slip on for river crossings while out hiking.

Mine are at least 10 years old and they’re pretty beat but very much still functional.

It’s so worth it. I spent many years pirating stuff manually by downloading the torrent file, adding it to my torrent program, unzipping it, and using a file browser to select game.of.thrones.s01e01.1080p.proper.webrip.whatever.fuckme.mkv. One day I was like fuck it, we’ll do it live and I dove into the whole plex/sonarr/radarr/jackett thing and it streamlined the piracy problem to the point that I very rarely even have to do anything beyond opening up a web browser and typing the name of whatever I’d like to have added to plex and the rest just happens automatically.

It grabs only the torrents in the language you specify with exactly the bitrate and resolution you specify, it unzips stuff and puts it in a correctly named directory with organized filenames and grabs the movie posters and thumbnails. I almost never even have to log into my torrent site. I usually only go there so my account doesn’t get disabled for not logging in frequently enough.

As a bonus sonarr and Radarr have a calendar page so you can see when the stuff you want is expected to air in the future.

Sonarr and Radarr can do this for you. If you have a movie or show that you are interested in that hasn’t released yet you can add it to the list and the program will automatically grab it from your preferred torrent site and download it for you as soon as the file is available.

It’s really nice when I forget that I added something and then six months later I see that it’s been downloaded automatically and is ready to watch.
