Agreed. A set of adjustable dumbbells for home is a great purchase that you can use to create all sorts of quick workouts at home. Just choose a few lifts you enjoy doing that work a variety of muscles, and do them a few times a week. Even 30 minutes when you get home before you turn into a lazy slob on the couch, 3-4…

Wow, a lot of people here are super resistant to the notion that they should exercise. It’s kind of depressing.

I’m curious how you came to that “3 hours of content” figure.

Love it when people on the internet get up in arms about something that they didn’t research in the slightest.

SWGEmu is a pretty neat project you might check out, they’ve emulated most of the server code from the Pre-CU days. You need a set of original SWG discs to get the client running, since that’s all copyrighted content, but they have a launcher that takes it from there and hooks in to their emulation servers.

Right. I’ve watched both, and I think there’s a huge contextual difference between what Ninja did and what PewDiePie did. Ninja was a stupid (barely noticeable) slip up while trying to sing along to a song with no ill intent, whereas PewDiePie hurled the word as a derogatory term meant to demean somebody else.…

I’m for making all big Twitch events subscriber only for the vast majority of the time, maybe with a few periods of all-chat at select times (AKA when everyone on screen is white and male, since Twitch chat loses its mind otherwise). Might be good to also limit all-chat to emote only mode turned on to prevent…

Later, I met a dog pleading with his dead master to wake up. I did not have the heart to tell him that his master was dead. He sounded so relieved when I said he might wake up some day, and I felt bad for lying, but I just didn’t want to make the dog sad.

I agree that this is most likely (and is, as other commenters have pointed out), an unrelated update with unforeseen consequences for Nyko. Even if Nintendo was trying to lock down their licensed hardware, I doubt they’d go around bricking consoles for unsuspecting customers on purpose.

I don’t think “our patch notes are terrible, but they’re consistently terrible” is a good motto, but it is what it is. I agree that the optics are only particularly bad when something like this happens.

Yeah, I’ve been pretty familiar with Nintendo’s efforts against homebrew in the past, which is part of what got me wondering.

Tin foil hat? I even said I didn’t think they’d bust third party components on purpose, but I was wondering why their patch notes are so vague.

If you think Sea of Thieves is a grind, you’re not playing it right. The game isn’t about progression at all. It’s about player interactions and emergent gameplay. You’re going to burn out so hard if you’re actually trying to grind your reputation up.

Kick ass!

Dude. We’re getting a Shake Shack?

Bleh, that’s awful. Props to the Splatoon team though.

“General system stability improvements to enhance the user’s experience.”

I think a temporary progression system could be cool. Maybe you could pick up a special blunderbuss or something after a raid that would only exist with you until died.

Any good therapist will tell you that they’re normal humans, and they have their own mental shit to deal with just like everyone else. They don’t need to have perfected their own mental health to be able to help someone else sort things out and build up their mental health toolbox.

The game definitely encourages a certain “pirate” mentality. The entire game is based around the risk/reward of loading up on treasure before going back to an outpost to sell it, all the while being a potential target for enterprising buccaneers. If PvP isn’t your thing, then you should probably take a pass on this…
