I miss my Xperia Play, that thing was the bee's knees.

Close enough when your actual database system is written in fucking COBOL.

A coworker set the break room on fire by microwaving her lunch for 30 minutes instead of three. No idea how you forget your lunch is in the microwave, let alone for half an hour, but hey I got to go home early.

Oh wow, two aspects of my gaming history I would've never expected to cross paths. Definitely giving this a download!

How's GB Studio for making VNs?

You've got great taste in games Atticus! A lot of people had (valid) complaints about this game but I still enjoyed it quite a bit. The story was decent, the characters were enjoyable, and it felt like a proper Star Wars romp. Plus I'm a sucker for a good poncho and a cute droid buddy.

Here's hoping Jedi Survivor gets a non-DRM release at some point, I'm not getting an EA account just so they can checksum my game every time I mouse over the icon.

Yes. I've spent far more money than I will ever save but I've had a lot of fun with it.

Also I printed a nerf blaster. Enough said.

Chickpeas. We usually have them toasted with veggies and couscous at least once a week, and if I need a quick lunch I'll mash a can's worth to make something similar to tuna salad and toss that on some toast.

Last time I tried the Feynman technique I was escorted from the building for impersonating a professor.

Seriously though, back in college I used the Leitner system until I was comfortable enough with the info that I could explain it in layman's terms. Though back in the day I just called the Feynman technique the rubber duck method thanks to my brother who was in IT and actually got everyone rubber ducks one year as a gag stocking stuffer.

Yeah I miss the feel of real paper in my hands but I have hundreds of books in this little black box and I like to reread most of them so it's handy. Sometimes I'll dust off my Kindle if I'm planning on reading for more than a few hours: the matte screen is a lot easier on the eyes.

That is a fun fact! I try to minimize the number of apps I have installed for that very reason, and the only things I have on my home screen are Moon+ Reader and my email, dialer, and texting apps.

Okay wait, how are Cyberpunk and Stardew both disappointments? If you'd mentioned Starfield I'd believe you but both those games are critically acclaimed and for good reason.

For my part, I've been playing No Man's Sky and I just restarted Tears of the Kingdom. I might dig into my retro library and start up Golden Sun though, it's been a while and I'm due for a replay.

The only animal in the US with a pocket and they shove the coins down its throat? Oof.
