This is what I do too. The first thing I do after buying from GoG is to download the installers, both Windows and Linux. So I don’t have to download again and again every time I install. I can carry a copy around and install it on an offline machine too. I also share my games with my family, just like sharing discs in the old time. If some of them like one of the games, they’ll buy it again themselves. If this is not owning games in practice, I don’t know what is.

It feels like the problem with Linux gaming nowadays, is that people expect you to own your games on Steam. Yes, Steam’s support is excellent now. But my GOG games not so smoothly. Is it because of my obscure hardware? Is it my misconfiguration? Or is it me mod my games the wrong way? I’m still trying to figure out a way to mod my GOG Skyrim through MO2.

I still have a machine that runs Windows 10 LTSC. Used to need it to run Adobe softwares, but I get past that now.

Now I need it to run my heavily modded Bethesda games. I can’t get my GOG versions to run through MO2 or NMM even with the help of Steam. I feel really stupid. Heroic Launcher somehow can’t run some Proton supported games on my end, too. My small collection on Steam seems fine, but most of my games are on GOG, I can’t figure out why sometimes Heroic won’t work.

The Fifth Element comes to my mind immediately. It was my happy place.

The Lord of the Rings, It’s what I watch when I felt lost.

Also, Nostalgia, another film I rewatch when I felt not belonging and nowhere to go back to.

I encountered these people while playing Divinity Original Sin too. They basically exploited the mechanism, stole everything, abused the chest/telekineses method, then felt good about themselves, look down on everyone who don’t play that way.

I remember every place where I’ve lived in for more than one week. Including their surrounding areas. I like go back there in my mind from time to time, for many of them don’t exist any more.

My favourite ARPG, and one of my all-time favourite game. The gameplay, the character builds and loots are awesome, I especially like that you can use green Monster Infrequent equipments in the endgame too. But what’s even better are the lores. Every faction exists reasonably, there are no black and white, random NPCs you met on the road who only have a few sentences, make you feel for them too. I think I’ll continue playing it for many years. I’m also looking forward to the new expansion.

I, too, am glad that I added two more RAMs when they were cheap. Hopefully if one of them died, I can still have a decent machine in the foreseeable future.

There goes another good studio. RIP.

Masks, frequent handwashing, hand sanitizer, more distance from people than usual, less frequent grocery shopping, stopped going to public places except transportations and hospitals.

I lost my uncle in the early days of Covid, due to hospitals can’t take in any more patients.

Also I fear for the lives of our cats, even though they are all house cats. There were cases pets get killed by fearful residents. I fear the government would cull your pets like they did to the minks.

But on the lucky side, we didn’t find anything lacking in most cases. We already had abundant N90/FFP2 masks and some surgical masks, they were from previous flu seasons and for DIY jobs. We always had a habit of changing clothes once home. Most of the things that were hard to find, we already had spare. Until later there was a food shortage, but that was another story.

I’m with you on this. It sometimes feels like those who play multiplayer games have a different schedule.

When WoW Classic launched I tried to play it with a friend. But all they did were raids. Raids at dinner time, raids for four hours straight, raids every day. If I’d play with them, I won’t even have time to make dinner nor have the time to eat, sometimes I wasn’t even home when they begin their raids. It didn’t feel like gaming at all, just another chore. And I was told it was the vast majority of players. I remembered it has good would-building when I played the earliest release back at school, but I didn’t realize most people play it in a mind-numbing way.

It’s a nice show, I enjoyed it too. And I surprised the trio appeared as a household while playing the Sims 3.

I was just graduated, and very depressed. Found my first job, but got fired because of frequent mental breakdowns. I was on medicines that I can’t afford. Overall in poor health. But after failing some attempts in college, I generally abandoned the suicide plans during that time. It’s hard to believe it’s already been 18 years too, happy birthday to you.

Yes, it collects all the replies in one post, if the OP’s been cross posted to different communities, and it only shows the post title once, so it doesn’t overcrowd your feed. You can submit to communities to create your home feed like Lemmy, or there are Feeds that you can subscribe or create to your own liking, or there are Topics of collected similar communities, for easier browsing too. It has a more complicated structure than Lemmy, but I think it’s worth it.

Is this the right place to discuss PieFed? I think PieFed did the cross posting and fragmented communities problem nicely. You can create your own feed too.

Banana and nuts? I usually eat them as snacks. Any easy to peel fruits will do. I might add a glass of soy milk, too, if really hungry.

That if we put up enough efforts, we’ll achieve world peace? I held this stupid belief till high school.

That adults are trustable, and will honour their words? This died young.

Childhood memories felt distant, but looking back, when I was small, I generally like doing things in my own corner, or going out on my own if I can.

I felt close to my father, enjoyed ask him all sorts of questions like he knew everything, and often worried he might died or went missing, and I’ll became an orphan. Never felt close to my mother.

I also remember I loved one of our family cat very much, but they gave him away. I loved my rooster that I grow from a chicken very much, but they ate him.

One of my niche hobbies, like HEMA and HEMAScholar.

A community for Ikea stuffs would be nice too?

I still like Skallagrim. He still gave helpful reviews about blacksmiths and historical weapons that I’m interested in. And IMO, his channel was always more entertainment than scholarship. But HEMA is a martial art that develops slowly, way slower than YouTube algorithm’s demand. There are not many new stuffs to talk about. If there has to be fillers to get his channel going, I’m okay with that.

Edit: Back to the topic. There are not many channels that I care about degraded to the point that I can’t bare. What makes me a little sad is that from time to time, channels stop publishing videos. Especially after Covid, people found better things to do, so they hibernated their YouTube channels.
