I can't believe I was able to run do-release-upgrade on this server and it work *perfectly*.

@ceruleanspark I wouldn't even attempt it. Whenever I want to upgrade I just knock over my root partition and start over. That's for a desktop system though.

@ceruleanspark "Wily Beast and Weakest Creature", Demo came out May the 4th ( 2019 ).
I mostly know that because I heard some Star Wars geeks rant about it.

Got my 8-way switcher so my NES, Genesis, TG16, SNES and N64 are all hooked up, and no more R/F switches. With room for a future Atari and Dreamcast, to boot! !vgp

@scribus My grandparents have a NES, and I have a SNES from Dad, so I feel strongly that it wouldn't be quite the same.

@thismightbeauser ahem. Yeah, genuine hardware is its own experience.

I just remembered For Honor. The video game where you could live out your fantasy of being a knight and play with a sword. Alternatively a Viking or ?Samurai? if you were one of 'those' people.
I would really like a game like that on the Nintendo Switch, but focused on couch-play instead of whatever For Honor's main aim was.Wednesday, 17-Apr-19 23:04:15 UTC from web- Jonathan Chouinard likes this.

@drinkingpony I just stumbled across a documentary (?) on Netflix about that game! Have yet to watch it, and never played, but the concept sounds neat. !vgp !movies
-
@scribus It was a great concept, but the lack of dedicated servers (Meaning P2P networking, with the game selecting the fastest 'node' as host, like with CoD on the XboX360, a thing that everypony and everyhuman hated) lack of balance, and dishonourable killings in a game called 'For Honor' ultimately brought nothing but toxicity. There even was a day-of-infamy, orchestrated by Reddit, to have a day of NOT playing the game trying to make the dev's aware that the game had huge problems.

Damn Korok seeds. I cannot find them and I NEED more item storage for weapons.

@scribus I'm powering through the main quests and I don't find many of those Korok seeds to increase my inventory space. Since I don't find any (because I'm not exploring much) it's a struggle to keep a good stock of good weapons. I haven't any problems that I didn't have any but it's a small struggle.

I do want to talk about the implications of this unit for a moment, specifically "Dry Bones" and "Dry Bowser", whose naming conventions confuse and frighten me. When I die, will I become Dry Brian? Is a living Bowser Wet Bowser? Why do Piranha Plant have bone in it?

@ceruleanspark You are a Wrian now, and a Drian when you are dead.
Do not overthink it. -
@ceruleanspark Well, it was never proven that piranha plants are actually plants, and not plant-resembling animals. There's a marked lack of academic institutions in the mushroom kingdom.

Watching classic Futurama, this quote has aged well: "Listen here, missy. Computers may be twice as fast as they were in 1973, but your average voter is as drunk and stupid as ever. The only thing that's different is me: I've become bitter, and, let's face it, crazy over the years. And once I'm swept into office, I'll sell our children's organs to zoos for meat, and I'll go into people's houses at night and wreck up the place. Muahahaha!"

the Goats have a new album coming out in April and honestly the most surprising thing to me about it being based on Dungeons & Dragons is that they didn't do it sooner https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=987MTbOl0mc

@tiff I dunno, I think the pro-wrestling album represented a bigger part of his childhood
-
@ceruleanspark going from wrestling to goth culture to D&D is an incredibly relatable trajectory of childhood interests

-
thinking about that time @ceruleanspark recommended me the Mountain Goats' The Sunset Tree on a whim and it turned out to be the exact album I needed to get me through my troubled youth. I love music

@scribus Tragic! Very tragic. That's one of my favorite NES games. It's so good that I have it twice! The one with Mike Tyson and the other with Mr Dream. Only Road Fighter is slightly above that but more for nostalgic reasons than for its gameplay (because it is very flawed). I played it on a clone Famicom at my grandparent's when I was young.

@adiwan I'm hoping, because the 6 lost games are alphabetically close(ish), that they're just in a box from the last time I moved, but I don't know where the box would be. Never heard of Road Fighter.

@ceruleanspark Thoughts on fallout 76?
Friday, 30-Nov-18 01:19:33 UTC from web-
@nerthos There are AI enemies, just no NPC humans. It's kind of a man vs. nature sort of thing in that every AI that you DO encounter is usually a wild animal (or a busted robot). There's the usual stuff, there are feral ghouls, super mutants, robots, deathclaws, mole rats, etc. etc., but then there's also some new ones. Scorched are ghouls that are in between feralism and still having some semblance of brain activity, so they don't communicate verbally but they can use guns. Mole Miners hang out in the coal mines and I THINK they're people that have gone mad? I'm not sure, the game's really ambiguous about what they actually are, and you can't see what's underneath their masks. Scorched Beasts are, uh, really buff dragons. The closest thing I've seen to an actual NPC is a supercomputer who reads poetry to you, and I want to put her AI into a synth body and marry her.
