Yeah! I always called it Hand of Manos for some reason. I had no clue there was a MST3K episode about it.

Hand of Manos. Most likely thee worst movie ever made. I found it for a screen writing class. The assignment was watch a bad movie then present it to the class. Easiest A+ of my fucking life.

Another weird one is, there used to be a sex Tetris type game for Windows 98 or earlier. Little naked people would drop down and when you got a full line they would jump off the screen. I don't know how that got on the family PC, but it was on it. I played it. So there's that.

If she's not gonna arch her back because I use an I phone, she's gonna have to use Arch with no DE and some esoteric Wayland WM that's only configurable by C.

I don't know. That's just what everybody in my neighborhood calls it.

Green Belt

Wargaming. It's given me a social life. I've developed new skills like painting. It has side hobbies like 3d printing. Hopefully I can make it a career too. I've always dabbled with 3d software like Blender. Three months ago I took the leap to learning 3d sculpting with the plan to release my own designs for miniatures. I really wanna make my own Dark Elves for The Old World.

Same but only because I dual boot Windows and was too lazy to setup grub or systemd-boot the day I installed Linux on my new setup.

I was able to pick up Street Fighter and Baldur's Gate before I left my job. They'be been holding me for months now. Two of the best games to come out this year are real life savers when I'm stressed the fuck out.

The snow biome theme from Terraria is an absolute gem.

The way they decided to dice up the source material for GoT even before they ran out of books was the most jarring thing about reading that series. George gave them a meticulously detailed account of things and they tweaked it a lot. At least that series was grounded in historical fantasy. So there was rules that needed to be followed and George was there to guide them. If GRRM wasnt there from the start they could have gone off the rails from the beginning.

The Three Body Problem is way more abstract idea wise and extremely dry in terms of character interaction. And is Liu gonna be able to help them to steer the ship the same way GRRM did? I don't think so. Right off the bat these guys are being left to their own devices for a lot of this story. I read an interview where they mentioned changing the story to fit a wider audience. And looking at the two trailers, I already noticed major changes that just don't make sense. Skepticism is gonna be at an all time high for me.

I watched and loved GoT just as much as anybody. I read the books and quickly figured out why they took precedent over the show, even for the good years. I've already read Three Body Problem. On my first read through I thought this was the greatest scifi trilogy ever written. I'm not ready for someone to come and make a shitty TV adaptation of it. Especially those two.

This is key. A decade ago I did all three days at the New England Metal and Hardcore festival. Bodies fell from the sky on me. I got punched in the back of the head. I was almost knocked out on multiple occasions. I lost my glasses and was blind for most of the trip. What hurt the most was my feet. The pain was only alleviated when I was running around in the pit and walking back to my motel. I was in my early 20s then. I can't imagine doing that now.

Ryzen 7700x and a 5600xt. I get about 25 fps after the new patch on low to medium. I've put in about 20 hours so far. It has the makings of being a great city builder/management game. It feels more like the Sim City of old rather than a sequel to Cities Skylines 1. The road tools are a amazing compared to CS1. The management aspects are waaaaayyyyyyyy better then the first game. It's a solid foundation gameplay wise. It just needs a shit load of work to bring it up to par performance wise.
