Find Quinn. He has the timer.

Don't use mods you don't like. It's quite the Shocker, I know.

Also don't shit on other people for using mods you don't like. Whether it's the "intended experience" or not.

If I want to drive through Red Dead Redemption 2 in a lifted Nissan altima rocking light strips, spinners, and a massive spoiler, I shouldn't have to deal with a thousand nerds telling me it's not historically accurate or it "ruins the game"

(note: if someone knows of a car mod for rdr2 I'd actually like to use a car for the lols)

If someone wants to play skyrim with their massive dong hanging out of their chainmail bikini, while dual welding the keyblade and master sword to fight Gnasty Gnork then let them do that in peace.

Okay I have a confession to make....

I haven't finished a Doom since Doom 3 (2004).

I have loved every minute of Doom (2016) and Doom Eternal, but I haven't finished either of them.

I get too motion sick to play video games like that anymore.

Even Titanfall I have to take a break between levels.

I'll finish them someday, I promise...

Prey was the first game in a long time to make me stop and go "what the fuuuuuuuck?" in a long time.

It's a good feeling.

I'd absolutely love to know where the team expected to take the story after the ending(s) if they made a direct sequel.

More like Prey, for sure.

Circadian? Is that like a clown circus act?

My wife works nights and is mostly alone all night, so I try to stay up late so she has someone to talk to. Unfortunately I also have a shifting schedule that changes every week, so I can't ever get into a sleeping pattern.

Without fail and regardless of what time I went to sleep, every day between 630-7am I wake up. And if I've had more than 4 hours of total sleep, there's 0 chance of me going back to sleep no matter how tired I feel.

My body is a MACHINE. It's BREAKING DOWN and things FALL OUT of it sometimes.

In one work report, I recorded the date as "1/13/25", "13/1/25" and "13JAN2025"

I have my preference, but please for the love of all that is fluffy in the universe, just stick to one format....

The secret is "not having politicians that bend over backwards for car companies for over a century while your country is still in development" and "having people in influential potitions or states that understand taxes aren't inherently bad" with just a Powerpuff girls size dash of "the wealthy like to keep poor people in their place and poor public transit and education keep things that way"

That's why no amount of "it's actually cheaper to do it the other way than you already pay and here's 10,000 studies and real world examples all over the world that prove it" will convince the people who can change anything.

They know.

They simply like things they way they are.

Hell, they kick the poor down a couple pegs where possible.

Funny, because I know plenty of people in Ohio who have gone to Canada specifically for better and more affordable medical treatment.

I have lived near two solar projects in Ohio in the last decade.

In both instances the fields had been completely unused for years. With one being completely unmaintained and growing wild, to the delight of all manner of critters I'm sure.

Both had been sold by the property owners, and not to industrial owners. One was even helping power my house and a local hospital when they got it turned on.

Both had people in pickup trucks plow through during construction that damaged a ton of stuff.

Both had sudden extremely vocal opposition out of nowhere, with signs popping up all over yards and intersections about how we should be using farmland "for food, not wokeness"

Both have had drive-by shootings in the middle of the night after completion that ultimately only damaged a couple things (probably because rednecks aren't exactly accurate when shooting from a moving vehicle, nor do they usually know the important tech bits to target for maximum damage)

I just think it's interesting that people who have never set foot on a farm suddenly got concerned about a plot of land already not being used for farming that would continue going unfarmed. Especially since some of them I knew personally and up to a point had been praising the solar projects for "freeing people from profit hungry power companies"

Almost like they didn't know much about it until someone told them what to think...

I mean, they can literally say "it only counts for #45 and #47" and exactly who is going to tell them they are wrong?

Historically they aren't even okay with you talking to your imaginary friend who's gonna do you a solid after you die if it's not the exact same flavor of imaginary friend.

And I mean exact

"Felon who has had no need or interest in the price of oil, gas, vehicles or lumber makes statements about the necessity of oil, gas, vehicles, and lumber"
