tbh in the world we live in i think we all need a bit of therapy. But relying on your partner exclusively for that is a bad idea in the long run. They can offer their support but at the end of the day they can’t fix you and they definitely don’t have the skills to guide you.

i just want pressure sensitivity that actually works, GIMP used to be my go to for art stuff in the past, its a shame to see that it hasn’t really improved much over the past decade. I’ve switched completely to Krita, better overall software

I like the idea of self driving cars, especially for people with mobility issues but they’ll never be safe enough for use without their own infrastructure because of the complexity and also terrible design of American roads. Personally I think its better to spend our tax dollars on building better public transit and human sized transportation methods but the absurd amount of push back from both the populace and also the government basically guarantees it isn’t going to happen in my life time. But i generally don’t see the self-driving car experiment working out in the long run.

Personally i don’t see VR as the future of gaming, VR is all about an increase in immersion which isn’t always what you want in a video game. It’ll be its own unique thing. As to whether or not it’ll remain niche entirely depends on how the technology develops and its ease of use. From what i tell now, and what VR will probably be used for predominately (and well its mostly being used this way anyway) is socializing. Yeah you can play video games with it but I think the primary drive for VR for a lot of people will be what is essentially digital chatroom, movies, theme parks basically VR chat and things like it.

while metroidvania is an apt comparison souls-like games and specifically dark souls games feel a lot like classic dungeon crawlers ( but with real time combat instead of grids. Which in the case of fromsoftwares earlier games kingsfield, makes a lot of sense.

dang, must be like dodging land mines

As someone who casually enjoys 40K, it has a tendency to attract some of the most rancid people. OSR has this problem too sometimes, but its not nearly as bad as 40k. And the general RC hobby. Part of the reason i don’t fly fpv drones as much as I’d like too, can’t stand the chuds at the airfield I’ve never met a more unhappy group of people, and they don’t even fly anything there either!

people like larger phones because they like social media. For people in developing countries a cell phone is their only personal computer so for them having larger screen more preferable. People just like larger phones. I loath them because I don’t have pockets. I could probably live with a dumb phone, but mobile banking, and maps are too useful of a feature for me to live without out. tbh unless your a power user or gamer there really isn’t much of a reason to upgrade your cellphone anyway

evil people have always been there, but we’re in an era of many crisis’s, it was easier to ignore it when it didn’t personally effect you. Now i imagine in the next 10-20 years it’ll start effecting everyone in ways we’ve yet to imagine. But I don’t think its the end of the world or anything just that its probably time we start considering what we want our futures to look like and start making plans to survive or fight.

I’ve been on a nostalgia binge as a lately and decided to listen to a bunch of stuff from my childhood. The Killers, No Doubt, Modest Mouse ect. I used to be really into rock, as a kid.
