I'm the same but I may just be getting older. Last game I was hyped for was Cyberpunk 2077 coming off of the stellar Witcher 3 and having followed both games I loved, W1 & W2. Sometime before it released, I just dropped all hype for it and haven't felt the same after. Haven't even played it yet either.

Today, I let myself be pleasantly surprised by games I never thought I'd like. I really liked Death Stranding and I'm waiting for its sequel but still no hype... I haven't even seen the trailer yet and I doubt I will... I'll buy it and go in blindly. Just have a PS for Sony's once a year AAA and that's it for AAA gaming. Most other days, its just AA or indie games on PC.. which is where I find a lot more flavor. As an example, this month, I've played Minami Lane, MudRunner and Art of Rally and starting Tactical Breach Wizards soon.

It wasn't "my" Half Life but it was a damn good one. It felt true to the series and that brought a tear to my eye. The writing, the environments, the soundtrack all felt very Half Life without compromise. I didn't like that it was a VR title but I understood why they went that route. In 2D, it would probably lack in depth (in more ways than one).

I borrowed a VR set from a friend to play it and bought the game at 60% off, which it frequently drops to. I'd urge anyone who has a VR capable PC to try and play it some way but VR is always going to restrict access to this. I'll probably play through it in 2d Mode (via mod) some day in the future to try and relive it. And if non-VR is the only way you get to experience it, at minimum, use headphones... and dont go online saying it sucks after because, remember, it was made for VR.

I preferred fable 2 over 1 because it had guns.

protest is storming and taking control of the representation of authority in the country.

Jan 6. 2021... just the other side protesting though.

Relatively easy fix though. Get away from advertiser supported platforms and use community supported ones.

Fence it, let it regrow and let lose a shit ton of chickens. Market free range eggs.
If you lease it to a farmer, you're no better than a landlord (in fact, you are one) and I don't see why the whole of lemmy doesnt start pissing on you right away.

Found them, Lidl product.

Doesn't Lidl or Aldi make copycats for most of these, including bounty? they usually come in multiples in a bag.

Afaik its always going to have some parts of uranium right? 50% after one half life, 25% after two half lives and it will keep on halving practically forever (or till the last atom decays). In the end it comes down to when you consider it a negligible amount.

There was a time in my life when I would agree but not anymore. Today, the clinginess is very off putting. A self respecting, independent woman is gold.

I'd have to be near retirement age while still nimble enough to renovate it and hope my pension and savings would be enough to cover the costs.

Even then, it would be difficult to navigate renovations in that environment where you don't speak the language, have no idea how their houses are supposed to be built, waste disposal and the myriad of other issues that will surely arise.

Getting a job is going to be a bitch - thus the retirement age requirement.
Getting citizenship is going to be an even bigger a bitch.
I'd be an outcast cause of my skin color and inability to communicate.

 

My little nuc server. Had to change some bios configs today so I busted out the old LCD and since it was there already, did a package update for the hell of it.
