@aloap It's kinda difficult to play games on the laptop when I don't use my power here!
@axxss Arm muscles, since your arms would become your wings.
@skells You could replace French for Deaf.
Well, I guess I don't _dislike_ the Beatles, but I don't care about them either. ;)
@johnabs Spiffy!
If you're not a gamer, and you don't understand why people would want to spend time gaming... don't worry! It's apparently a bit of an acquired skill! Just like people who never read don't have a reason to pick up a book until they learn to!
This video was a very interesting look into how a non-gamer would react to current videogames as observed by a gamer!

So, don't worry if you don't grok Skyrim or any of those so-called 'grand' games. Not every game is for everybody. That said, even Patience is a game. ;)

@lucifargundam Keanu Reeves and Neil Patrick Harris? That... actually sounds interesting.
@lucifargundam A new Matrix movie? Huh.
@lucifargundam The Talos Principle I've played before, am about... 1/4-way into the game I think. I could probably continue playing it someday.
Terrorhedron, isn't that the tower defense game where you could place turrets in various angles? That's cool, I suppose I could continue playing that one too someday. Just got a bit sick of tower defenses at that time, can never keep up playing this type of game for too long as it's usually just grindy and repetitive.
Refunct seems to be in my ignore list. One of the player tags was 'Parkour', and that kind of genre is not really my type of game.
Not The Robots I've played a bit. It's just exceedingly silly.. a robot eating furniture. :P C'mon...
@lucifargundam I've taken a peek at it but FPS-games aren't for me. I'm not really one for fast paced action games, least of all FPS and PvP.
@celia I would have thought the same. This is annoying.
@moth_ball Looks like people aren't allowed to be happy anymore.
Since I'm kinda in a gaming funk (just too tired) I've decided to try out a new Minecraft modpack instead. At the moment I'm trying to figure out how SkyFactory 4 works, seems cool so far. A skyblock-style modpack but without Ex Nihilo, means likely no sieving for resources. That's a nice change as Ex Nihilo tends to become exceedingly grindy. Nice if you can automate it, but it's still grindy.
At the map generation menu there were a gajillion different map styles possible, some of which made me laugh. Like, a tree on a block of dirt, in the middle of a hollow glass cube... surrounded by lava. Or even ender fluid, yeah, good luck expanding your base! :D
For now I've gone with the SkyFactory Tutorial map, for a bit an easier start while I'm figuring things out. I've noticed that each map has the option for prestige unlocking, which is interesting. Haven't seen meta-progressing in Minecraft like this before, since prestige is unlocked globally for every map that's got prestige enabled. The prestige rewards definitely are interesting as they enable getting a Hopper Bonsai (useful!) or even Ore Excavation (definitely useful!). I'll just have to figure out first how to gain prestige points.
Hopefully going to have a relaxing Saturday afternoon with this.

Not something one'd expect to find on their desk at work, but apparently there's some ancient stuff stored in the storage sheds at my job. :D
They were cleaning out, and because 'it is techy' naturally it has to be 'dumped at the IT office'. Lucky me! I'm so taking those things home with me! :D

@Co Oh neat. That reminds me to pick up the slack someday. I can read Hiragana, still haven't bothered to go learn Katakana but that surely is next. I'm just very lazy. :D
@twotwenty Pretty damn obvious, yeah. :D
Probably depends on context.
@twotwenty Keep us posted. Curious what the winning entries are. :)
@freemo It definitely will be when 20k people keep passing through! ;)
@freemo Time to plan Project X at your place!
@twotwenty Does that mean you win if you mail 'I am so very confused' to them?
@Pat I block whole racistic domains. It's surprising how many there are in the Fediverse. I simply don't have the patience for that shit.
Main account is now on @trinsec
I've resigned as moderator on Qoto.org since 29-aug-2023.
This one is now a backup account, my activities on Qoto will be low.

Used to be on another mastodon server regularly, but it's been inaccessible since November 2020. So I've decided to join Qoto instead! I like the features this server has to offer.
