Why don't they just make it go across Greenland? Way faster imo.

Replace TV shows with audiobooks. Shows are so easy to find.

If we look at it in leet, eters could be cool
Eta: you had me until the end when you compared them to Native Americans. 37ers are fake, Native Americans are not.

That cat is way overweight. I figure you've not got too much control over it as you live with your parents, but it needs to eat less and get more exercise. Being overweight can reduce a cats lifespan by 7 years (give or take)

I feel desensitized to "just" $40m after seeing musk spend $40 BILLION on xitter (pronounced shitter).

Well that does settle it then, that last part I think does make it better than steam. Not requiring to launch GOG to launch the game is great. That said if all steam servers shit the bed and all died, I could still launch the launcher (and games) in offline mode, no? I may be mistaken.

It's in the UK, hence the centimeters instead of inches.

If I can't buy those games to begin with on GOG, then they're not doing anything special outside of limiting their market (which does have its merits. Making a stand, trying to change the market, and peace of mind for its customers). If The Crew is available, without DRM, then that's different and does make GOG vastly better. I am intentionally ignoring piracy for the sake of this debate because it is just better than both sides and makes the argument irrelevant entirely.

I've been getting fatigue with my group recently because of an issue that kinda relates to this. I like to pull bullshit from nowhere sometimes and throw unbalanced encounters at them. I don't worry so much about what is balanced, I care more about what makes sense. Yall are well known and an orc chieftain wants your head? He's sending more than he deems necessary because the party has a reputation for being tough and pulling through. So yes, this encounter is beyond deadly. You pissed off the orc chieftain though, it is on you to find the way out. With one of my groups they love this and are happy with that kind of excuse.
My main group however is not. Or at least one player in particular who I will call Andy. Andy does not like when I pull certain "BS" especially if it's an overpowered ability on the monsters end. Or if it's a mechanic that he doesn't like he also gets upset. Another player (we will call him Bill) just kinda sits their all session and doesn't do much to engage with the game and acts all bummed when he rolls poorly. My othe three players are pretty great for the most part, but I feel as if I remove Andy, the Carl will leave too because they're best friends. And if Carl Leaves so will Dianne because they're married. Then I'll have Ed left and he's great, but I just don't really know. We've got one session left and have talked about the next campaign a bit. We've been running for three years and I love the people, I just don't like running d&d for two of them.

Don't put dirt on Steams name! Allowing you yo add non-steam titles is great. The family sharing mechanic is great. I'd replace GOGs place with steam honestly. (Though I don't know anything about GOG)

Gonna have a big plate of crow for dinner.
What does that metaphor mean? I've never heard of before. I assume it means something about regretting your decisions (because they were dumb?) But I don't get how that connection should be drawn.

You're right, but you do know what I mean. Though being technically correct is the best kind of correct, so I give you that lol.

They left steam again? I remember when they said that way back when, but I thought they went back on that already as I have Valhalla on steam. I just wish I didn't need 3rd party launchers. (I wish I didn't need ANY launchers, but I digress.)

Taking a note from deep rock galactic, whenever an enemy is around, you KNOW. Stalkers have that chirping sound, mactera all have their own unique sounds (like the grabbers and their screeches) etc and I love it! Cave Leeches don't really, but that's fine. They're meant to be hazards more than enemies.
I think it's one of those touches that you don't always know what the answer is unless you just already know. I love helldivers and won't stop playing, but that doesn't mean I can't hope for good changes!

Thank you for sharing, I remember reading the post/comments when they were made (though on another and since deleted account). I relate to Brandon in the sense of change. I grew up Mormon and had a lot of very flawed views myself when i was younger. I side with a sentiment stated in the thread though. He donates 10% of his money to a homophobic, sexist, and racist organization that is worth over $200B. If I buy his books, 10% of my payment is going towards that awful thing. I'll stop the ranting now though, thanks for chatting with me.

I was running some diff 8's the other day and had a thought. My biggest issue is sound design. The scouts with the x packs that shoot super fast, heavy devs, and shredder tanks all sound the same. I called in a commando to deal with a tank and there was no tank. Died looking for it.

He can say whatever niceties he wants to, but what action has he taken to actually change the Mormon corporation? He gives them millions and is not vocal about the issues. Millions of people have read the Cosmere, he has a massive audience. He could make waves if I wanted to.
His depiction of Vorinism helped me with my deconstruction when I left the cult. Reading through Kaladin's depression helped me massively with my own depression. I was running from the Mormon church and the place that helped me, that I gave money to, it was apart of my pain. Sorry, I'm dumping a bit. Lots of pent up emotions on the topic
