Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How did you guys celebrate Christmas this year?
1·19 days agoBeen sick as a dog for days, holding down the fort while the roommates are out of town. My Christmas dinner was a couple of microwaved Hot Pockets.
I’ve had worse.
Some of the very best programmers I’ve ever met were self taught, don’t let your dreams be memes

Games@lemmy.world•‘Baldur’s Gate 3’ Maker Promises ‘Divinity’ Will Be ‘Next Level’English
1·1 month agoLearned about this for the first time earlier today watching Mortismal’s Divinity recap videos lol
I did know about Divine Divinity (which, fun fact, canonically features Lucian the Divine as your player character) but Dragon Commander completely missed my radar.
I had an outright argument with one of my own coworkers about this very subject less than six months ago. Even with all of the insane bullshit going on outside today people still just refuse to look up and read any sort of information for themselves.
Going to start wearing one of these full time so all video evidence becomes inadmissible

My friend (who is an engineer) pointed me at this a few years ago and I’ve been pleased with it.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the story behind your username and avatar?
3·2 months agoThe name was originally chosen for nerd cred (for anyone who recognizes it - Atra esterní ono thelduin. Mor’ranr lifa unin hjarta onr. Un atra du evarínya ono varda.) but I later realized that it’s also great because it’s an actual word from an actual story and 99% of search engine results for my name are going to bring up that story and its wiki. It’s an extra layer of pseudo-anonymity that I enjoy.
The avatar was just cause it’s funny, I use this one all over the place.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Does anyone else miss traditional forums?
5·2 months agoI remember a couple forums had a “thank” feature or something similar that would show, with your username, your approval for a post without having to make an additional post about it. No downvotes though, you had to speak up to be a hater. I think that was a fine middle ground.

Games@lemmy.world•What game is a guilty pleasure of yours?English
5·2 months agoMan I really want to get into Mechwarrior but I’m just so ridiculously bad at the game and I have no idea how to get better.
I’ve tried to begin the MW5 campaign three times now and I’ve been priced out of existing every time, I take way too much damage and my repair bills vastly outstrip my income. Combine with having to spend hundreds of thousands of credits in travel fees to get anywhere and I’m very quickly even more broke than I started.
Just for kicks the other day I set up an Instant Action for testing purposes and I brought two Atlases, a Highlander and an Archer to some random backwater mid-difficulty mission and still barely limped out of there alive, with the Highlander and one of the Atlases downed. That’s just shameful.

223·2 months agoFuck that, when I bought Chrono Trigger for the SNES, I owned that game. I still own that game. Nintendo has not broken into my home to rescind my license to a physical cartridge that I purchased.

Games@lemmy.world•The Last Truly Custom Nintendo: A 3DS RetrospectiveEnglish
1·2 months agoHey I was that weirdo that down voted this, and I assure you it was by accident and I changed it now. I actually never got the chance to play Apocalypse and hot damn, I had no idea it was a whole sequel, I thought it was an expanded release in the same vein as a bunch of the Persona games have (P3->FES, P4->Golden, P5->Royal).
So, amending my statement, play SMTIV and then play Apoc.
Also, excuse me, I have some shopping I need to do.

ODST-Dropping your barbarian is objectively the best way to have him enter combat, and it inflicts psychological damage to anyone close enough to witness it.

Games@lemmy.world•The Last Truly Custom Nintendo: A 3DS RetrospectiveEnglish
2·2 months agoLeave Pokémon behind, play some Shin Megami Tensei, thank me later.
There’s a pipeline of former Pokémon fans thinking “Huh, these games have kind of gone to crap, I wish I had this same monster-collector style game but with a real plot and interesting characters” and then SMTIV falls from the sky like manna from heaven unto them.
I don’t think IV is actually the best SMT game, I think that honor goes to Nocturne - which is available on the Switch - but SMTIV is a good showing of the series that is available for 3DS. If you have the option, pick up SMTIV-Apocalypse, it’s an expanded “GOTY-style” re-release of IV, but the base game is also fine.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Whats your hot take on something that doesnt matter at all?
16·2 months ago“Nukular” never fails to make me seethe a little bit internally.

Reminds me of a joke I heard a few years ago.
The “Tech Enthusiast” : My whole home is rigged up with smart systems! I can control my AC and my lights from my phone from 1,000 miles away!
The Tech Engineer : the most recent piece of equipment I own in my home is a printer from 2003 and I keep a loaded gun next to it in case it makes a noise I don’t recognize.
