I mean, small sample size, but I've never worn a crop top and I haven't been brutally murdered, well, yet.

If anyone is looking for a search engine term, they are all Abrahamic religions, if memory serves.

2080TI, running Starfield at max settings with 4k texture mods, reporting in.

I want a top of the line GPU, I just can't find a good enough reason to shell out the money. It keeps plugging away, runs smooth as butter with a slight overclock, and I have no complaints. I heard lots of complaints about the 4*** series cards though.

I've saved up for a top of the line GPU twice now, and I'd rather spend it spoiling my wife and doing the nice things we can't usually afford.

I have to call out Mirror's Edge, it is a great experience if you have the right mindset.

Trying to play it with an FPS philosophy is not the way.

I thought teams sucked as a user experience... my last job, well my last job I was IT. If it involved a computer I was involved.

Anyways, administrating teams is a fucking god awful nightmare, honestly a lot of Microsoft's eco system is awful as a sysadmin. But teams and sharepoint take the cake for being fucked.

Unless things change drastically for their RPG division, I'll repeat what I've said since oblivion. Bethesda makes great modding platforms, the content within the game is a loose theme that modders can play with.

Yes the new Fallouts are just TES in the Apocalypse.

Yes starfield is little more than TES in space.

I buy Bethesda games for mod potential.

If they said no mods to all future games I wouldn't buy another one. I don't play ESO and I have never touched fallout 76 for this reason.

PC, I couldn't get it past 800x600 resolution.

Now is it possible that was an option? Sure, I couldn't see much the way it tried to render on a 4k monitor.

The point is, I couldn't access their remake on modern (for the time) hardware.

One of the few returns I've made on steam.

The Adams family game for the NES.

I never could get past the freezer section, but I never got to try much. It was my cousins' game and they lived in a different state.

On Amalur, I made a character and quit when I couldn't play in a modern resolution

I played the original and enjoyed it well enough though.

Imagine losing your father in a tragic fashion, only for Hollywood execs to make a marketable facsimile of appearance and voice. If they could store his corpse and make it dance like a marionette they would.

Talk about retraumatizing the poor lady.

I was a severe insomniac at the time, and this event lead to a diagnosis of Bipolar disorder. It happened a few times, but this was the worst. Got on meds and have been fine since. Enough prefacing.

I was at, for lack of a more specialized term, my cousins house. The oldest one of them was right around my age, but she was out of town for a competition, so I crashed in her room. At some point in the night, I'm full on hallucinating after not sleeping much in a while.

Dark, cloaked figures, in the corner of the room, chanting in some language I didn't recognize. I don't mean I didn't understand it, it sounded difficult to pronounce with a human mouth. This went on until the sun rose. I'd check the corners, and nothing, get back in bed and there they go again.

For people wondering, yes, manic episodes along with their common presentations, can also present as hallucinations. It took 20 years, from a diagnosis and depression as a child, to bipolar diagnosis, to fine tuning meds, to stable.

I'm dealing with a person resistant to any kind of therapy right now and I just want to scream at them that if their docs aren't helping, try a different one, don't give up. 20 fucking years. Over half my life struggling for a solution. It takes time and work, both.

If you need mental health assistance, or even if you've just had a really tough patch, find the appropriate professional for you. It doesn't mean you're crazy, it just means you're struggling. They help with tools to help stop struggling. Sometimes yeah, its pills. Other times its adapting your behavior and expectations to produce better more satisfying results.
