man THAT’S why that happens!

i just keep the one repaired tho

meanwhile i wish there was a slider that made the characters MORE chatty, the dynamic interactions are really charming to me! but i also specifically love how cliché they’re written, so can see how it’s not for everybody haha

JUST for hot deposit, yeh. the rest of the inventory/hotbar management always makes me wish i was playing something else.

the hotbar not being inventory space is fine, but tools disappearing because they’re in your hand is absurd. they really just added a “looking for the tv remote that i’m already holding” mechanic. the pinning system with filters is handy for food, but feels clunky outside that one usecase.

like they went with a realistic “the forest” style building system, and then the inventory management is the most videogamey shit in the world.

also the scroll wheel swapping hotbars by default is straight up whacky, i’ve heard the whole thing makes more sense on controller lmao

the hammer is my penis

wait till you see their april fools promotion from this year.

depends HEAVILY on the eye. some folks are really good at eyeballing shit. usually this goes hand in hand with other “visual calculus” skills like telling whether two things are the same size or determining angles at a glance.

reckon it’s just spatial reasoning + visualization + practice. i had an uncle who could look at a mechanical system and tell you exactly where all the wear would occur. i always thought it was some kind of savant trick until i started working on similar stuff.

the brain is just another muscle, you can train it to so all sorts of really amazing things!

this is why the og ds mariokart is the one i’ve sunk the most hours into BY FAR

try thrifting if that’s an option near you!

babe i’ve given BOTH of us a great idea. i’ve still got my very first big ass CRT. i’d love to give it life again.

bonus points if you reuse the old DVI hookup as a video out. TIL regular-ass DVI can handle 1920x1200 @ 60hz!

do folks do pc builds inside of old CRT cases? that seems like a niche that should exist.

there’s something so funny about them both being apple products, but the offending party getting the disrespect of “this stupid antique computer”

anytime a stellar product is released there’s a glut of shittier alternatives and replacements, sometimes from the same company even. higher ups notice REAL QUICK when they shorten their average upgrade cycle from 1-3 years to something like 5-10.

shit always loops back around to planned obsolescence. if you don’t do it, you will not succeed.
