Just off the top of my head
This probably won’t help with the first point but you can hit Ctrl+d I think, or click the star, and it’ll just bookmark it with a default name (page title) and location, I think. I’ve definitely bookmarked things by accident somehow.
I don’t believe I have ADHD so I can’t really relate to it. My original post wasn’t meant to be like a condemnation - weird isn’t always bad. Just different.
It’s mildly interesting that you wouldn’t get anything done, but I feel like if I had to work like you I wouldn’t get anything done. Trying to deal with all those tabs would be a big distraction to me. Funny how different folks can be.
I guess everyone needs a hobby but this one sounds less rewarding to me than others.
Usually the browser history, or I remember enough to find it again.
Admittedly, a couple times I haven’t been able to find a particular meme or whatever, but it’s never been important stuff.
I would be surprised if it was as good and big as bg3. I doubt they’ll give it to a small studio with a lot of heart, so it probably won’t be good.
Though I don’t know, maybe if they gave it to whatever’s left of obsidian it wouldn’t be the worst?
Other people’s computer usage is weird to me.
I just bookmark stuff if I think I’ll need it later, and I usually don’t even do that. Otherwise, every browser window is closed at the end of the session.
CEO seems like an idiot and/or coward.
Classic RPG. My half orc “beat with an ugly stick” master of time magick and backstab lives on fondly in my memory.
Also my extremely pretty elf, also a master of time magick.
I was hoping you would explain what you meant by “There’s not a reason to fight most enemies in most video games to be honest”. I don’t think that’s a true statement. I think most games do give reasons to fight enemies.
I haven’t played enough BotW to really weigh in on it, specifically.
There’s not a reason to fight most enemies in most video games to be honest.
Hmmmm… that’s a thinker.
In the older zeldas, you didn’t especially need to fight stuff on the overworld. I’d usually just run by, or kill the ones that were in my way.
In most FromSoft games, you can run past enemies but that can quickly spiral out of control. Killing them gives you time to explore safely, on top of the XP rewarded.
In shooters like Doom, you could probably run past most enemies, but they’ll keep attacking. Clearing them makes you safer.
Monster hunter it’s the whole point of the game.
What games are you thinking of where fighting is pointless? I don’t think it’s “most” games.
Oh I remember this post. I remember being surprised to see The Courtneys on the list. They’re a fun band. Did a nice live show when I saw them, once.
The original or the remake? I think the original is more solid overall, but the remake has some fun stuff.
Did you know in the original, you can get more than one support effect on a spell if you have more than one copy? I only learned this like last year, despite playing the game when it was new. So you can do like
[ Ultima + MP Absorb ] [ Ultima + HP Absorb ] [ Ultima + Quad Magic ] in your armor, and when you cast ultima it’ll Absorb HP, MP, and cast four times.
Also that will freeze the game on the 2nd to last boss.
I believe so. Otherwise you’re testing memory as well, which would make the results very confounded.
I can’t find the one I did, but https://www.varsitytutors.com/6th_grade_reading-comprehension-problem-440865 seems free.
https://www.k12reader.com/subject/reading-skills/reading-comprehension/6th-grade-reading-comprehension/ also came up.
Its kind of pithy but like we still live in a capitalist hellscape, so have any resistances really been successful?
I think 6th grade is reading for plot. Just a basic plot with a few characters. No complex themes. No unreliable narrators. Limited vocabulary.
I found an online test for it somewhere and it was like
“Sally was born in Canada and lived there until she moved to the United States when she was thirteen. She spends summers in Canada with her aunt and uncle, but spends the rest of the year in Boston. This year, she’s graduating from high school and planning on attending college. She wants to see more of the country, so her top picks for college are in California and Chicago.”
“Where does Sally live during the winter?”
“Where did Sally spend her childhood?”
“Where do Sally’s aunt and uncle live?”
You’re not going to find as many people who read badly on a majority text platform like this.
Was this the one with the weirdest camera system I’ve ever encountered in a 3d game? I remember just constantly fighting with it.
Also D&D 3e is not something I want to go back to. What a janky system.
One of the many things being a cheapskate protects me from.
Sparse areas have other costs. Like, you can’t get anywhere without a car, there’s fewer jobs, less social stuff. Cities have much higher potential on most metrics that matter.
One of my queer (bi) women friends today said that she thinks she’s done with dating men. It’s just too much a minefield of danger and stress.
At one of my past jobs I wanted to institute a “put a dollar in the jar” rule every time someone made a useless bug report.
“The site is down” -> dollar in the jar.
“I’m trying to access the site via the public internet in firefox 136.0.3, and I’m getting a 500 on [request], and then the whole page is blank. Here’s a screenshot.” -> good
Sometimes people don’t know. Sometimes they don’t care. But if there’s no consequences, people aren’t going to change. And if they’re not going to change, at least we can do a team lunch every week with the jar full of money.
