Setting up a new printer without any hassles is a very satisfying event.

Found something Amazon doesn't have. There's no ball caps with my MQ-1C Gray Eagle / US Army UAS. Just Air Force and Predator or Reaper. Every Army aviation hat is what you'd expect. Chinook, Apache, Blackhawk. Now I can't be an old crusty veteran in Dunkin with my black coffee. ):

The Fallout TV show is really something.... Special *ba dum ts* Seriously though, episode 1 was immensely enjoyable.

Nobody on BlueSky will agree but I believe the world is particularly dangerous, unstable, and militarily tense - in a way we haven't seen since the Cold War. With that context, regardless of one's feelings towards his antics, I would feel way more comfortable with Trump as the US leader.

Potentially an unpopular opinion: I'd be absolutely happy to pay a full $70 for smaller video games, with tighter scopes, if that allows for more reasonable sales targets, more creative risk, and healthier development conditions.

Love to see it, I think there's definitely room for video games to be used for learning in a more robust way. Excited to see if this becomes more common in future educational systems.

Completed The Dark Tower Book IV, I had fun and I'm glad I read it but what an odd item. It's like King said "Eh, nah, I'm gonna take a break and write a cowboy western instead, we'll pick up on the journey in Book V" I am going to read Eric Schlosser's Command and Control next.

12 yrs old, waking up on Sat and hopping on the sticks or logging into an MMO for 10 hours was no problem. At 30 years old, if I don't get 10k steps, `orkout, and some sort of chore done before games I get depression Why is this? Aging thing or some sort of modern digital age/dopamine dynamic?

1. This was ordered at 6pm Friday night, arrived 4am Saturday morning. What a world we live in! 2. Like A Dragon Infinite Wealth is a very good video game.

This is amazing and cool, but only as a novelty - at least for me personally. I would find it hard to play 480P Halo 2 multiplayer when the team over at 343 has put SO much love into making the original Halo 2 multiplayer accessible on modern devices.

Vanilla Ice Cream with (dutch) apple pie fresh out of the oven, is, undeniably, the PEAK way to experience ice cream in any variant.

My Baldurs Gate 3 playthrough is currently 90 hrs. I suspect I'll finish around 110. The scope of this game is wild... I've barely scratched the surface. Baldurs Gate 3 will likely be the first "10 year game" for me since Fallout New Vegas.

Hey BlueSky! I made a YouTube video comparing the Halo UNSC military to the USA military for fun. Check it out if you'd be interested in that. youtu.be/WRHaAozQtc0?... :)

It's a good thing we have moms. How else would we be able to have PB and J sammys without moms to get the jar unstuck? Call your moms today.

I'm working my way through the Dark Tower for the first time. Book three was great! Anybody read any good books lately?

The only people more vocal than football fans are the people who tell you how little they care about football on Superbowl Sunday
