For many system shoppers it’s a good-for-nothing system

that classifies as opposites stupidity and wisdom.

because by logic-choppers it’s accepted with avidity;

stupidity’s true opposite is the opposite stupidity.

  • I’m in full “Starfield waiting room mode”. Between this and my job taking a large portion of my time I’m disinclined to fully invest in any game. I still spend a few of hours here and there, but it’s less focused and more just ‘dicking around’.

    • WoW solocraft server is something I’ve been meaning to get setup for awhile. I tend to be a solo WoW player and the leveling process draws me more than endgame. The server I run is passable, but a little jenky. The space bar causes you to jump when underwater, global cooldowns have a hiccup delay, pet aggro functions incorrectly, etc.

    • Xenoblade 2 has been on my list for awhile. For misc reasons I gave up on the game partway through in favor of watching the cutscenes movie-style. I still want to beat the game though. The game is complex and I’ve been trying to get advice on a methodology for playing the game’s systems. Until I get that help though I merely dabble with the game and tiptoe forward.

    • Gregtech NH. It’s been a hot minute since I’ve run a minecraft mod pack. A friend mentioned them and I figured I’d do a bit of research and find what people consider to be a good one. GTNH is not new, but apparently it has had a long time to cook and is balanced and developed.

    • BotW may not be the shiny new TotK, but it’s what I have. I didn’t 100% Tears, but I saw all the story content and beat it. My copy was borrowed so afterwards I returned it. Now BotW is all I have, but it’s still fun and an excellent ‘dicking around for an hour’ kind of game.




  • It might be that they’ve given up on the visuals and are now making all the changes all at once. They’re ripping off the bandaid overhauling their site and are banking that the damage will be recover in time.

    With the current state of dissatisfaction from the community, now might be a good time to plow through and make all the changes that are already undesirable for the old user base.

    Maybe even more of these big changes to come? More popcorn for the Fediverse I suppose.


  • I 100% agree and just wanted to build off this comment if that’s alright.

    Another side of this is hedonism vs fulfillment. There’s nothing wrong with enjoying hedonism, so long as one isn’t harming themselves or others in the process. But living purely to satiate one’s hedonism tends to lead to a sense of hollowness or unfulfillment.

    In addition to letting go of non-destructive hedonistic shame, it’s important to take time to introspect and find what brings a person genuine fulfillment.
