Fair point, but I have my doubts we’ll take it seriously, considering our collective response so far to world altering events such as Climate Change, Panama Papers, etc.

How can one man be so infuriatingly involved in so much corruption globally? I just want to live in peace, urgh

Hey, you. You’re finally awake …

A group of Bus Drivers in Okayama did a fare strike; that is - continuing to run Bus Services whilst not taking any fares. Apparently it worked quite well - management felt the pressure whilst they faced no backlash from the public from Bus Service disruption.

It’s me - I have eczema. Literally flaking off in bed right now

I had overseas relatives visit over the weekend. It was nice to have the house feel actually lived in and less quiet.

Is he really that desperate and backed into a corner? I can’t tell anymore

The Wild Thornberries

Command and Conquer - the Tiberium Saga. Leave Tiberian Sun and Firestorm alone, modify C&C 3 to have better continuity with Tib Sun and Firestorm on the state of Earth (i.e. Tiberium Fauna and Flora, further degradation of Earth environment). Remake C&C 4 where base building is part of the core gameplay element again, and delay the deus ex machina effect of the Tacitus such that the Earth is not in such a pristine state as what we do see in C&C 4

This for me, but I don’t feel the same if the argument is in a language I don’t know / understand.

For me I usually position my exercise routine before work. The cardio allows me to think and generally function better throughout my work day, like my version of caffeine.

But yeah I don’t have time to do anything else in that few hours before work begins.

If it was GTA with spells, it would be more interesting. But guns (and by extension melee weapons) just feels too boring

I tried to explain to my friends but they don’t get it. Like it’s too grounded in reality

I never played JC3, but I finished JC2 because the characters were funny (i.e. Bolo Santosi). How does JC3 compare to JC2 in that aspect?

Eh I’ve already played it on Windows - it was some time back.

I don’t think I can fully abandon Windows as I have some work software that is only meant to run in Windows, so either I dual boot or get a separate machine for work things.

I tried Solus back in 2018 with Wine. The only game that didn’t work properly was Mass Effect Andromeda (if memory serves correctly); it kept crashing to the desktop anywhere between a few minutes in to 2 hours.

I didn’t want to have to do debugging both at work and outside of work, so I switched back to Windows, and it worked fine after that.

I would be willing to try again maybe, if I can find the will and time over the weekend to setup a hybrid Linux and Windows implementation on my PC - does anyone have any good recommendations?

Heh - Cloaca Cola

YouTube for me. I just realized I’ve been experiencing brain-rot like symptoms (i.e. unable to concentrate, think deeply in realtime, continue conversations without much pre-thinking) for the past few years because I watch too much Lets Plays as a substitute for human interaction.

Similar - I don’t say anything coherent, just contort my face and say things like Patrick from Spongebob (i.e. leedle leedle leedle lee)

Sweet and Sour Pork

Lemon Chicken Rice

etc.

Part 2: Me as a child putting my bare hand on a hot iron. My entire hand was bandaged up.

I don’t recall the pain, but the bandages lol
