I upvote every single one that comes across my feed. I don’t comment on them all, but our friend Atticus has absolutely inspired me to stop doom scrolling and pick up a controller. So many times I’ve found myself enjoying the game a lot more than I thought I would because I decided to just play

And they’ve turned me on to games I’ve previously written off as “not my thing.” Also the engagement in the comments too has been really awesome; I’ve learned a lot about games I’ve played and even completed before

I know they’ve got a lot going on, but through these posts what I’ve gleaned is they have a good friend group who also games. I’m thrilled to see these posts but I know I’ll be a little sad if they trail off. Which is alright, they have no obligation to us, but it makes me happy seeing someone having a good life with friends, and exposing me to awesome games and moments within them

So to echo the above poster, thank you :)

That is a sassy look. She’s beautiful btw! I can understand the strict regimen better

That’s adorable! Sounds like she’s treating you like kittens (idk how momma cats work, I figured they’d put them in the nest then go hunt at night)

Do you have a long haired cat?

Definitely, but they (my family member) did well for themselves and their family. They moved between big name studios but have found a comfortable career not tied to any big name studio

I haven’t kept in close contact with them but it’s pretty fun hearing about, or even playing, games they’ve worked on (every once in a while I check up on what they’ve done)

They eventually got into the sound side of things and occasionally would do recordings when family got together. One time in particular I remember, we went on a walk and they brought recording equipment. Recorded the ambient sounds while we were on the trail. Sometimes we’d be talking and other times we were walking in silence. Recording us approaching and departing; the sounds of our footsteps on different terrain: gravel, dirt, grass, pavement. Got some closeups of a small creek that ran next to the trail. Would record the sounds of a field of wild grass, or a stand of trees. I wonder if anything they recorded ended up in some game… That would be pretty dope

Tl;Dr What I can say is, they genuinely loved their job no matter which shitty big name they worked under. And they got to do some genuinely fun things in the pursuit of bettering their work

Sorry for the wall of text, idk I just haven’t really had somewhere to share that. I’ve never heard someone mention infinity ward , like literally ever. Any time I’ve said the name I’ve been met with blanks stares until I say “Call of Duty”

I have a family member who worked for IW on CoD but left shortly after the merger when they saw the writing on the wall. Granted they left for a company just as bad ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

And when I’ve tried it numerous times I’ll let them walk me through the process while I browse the internet for a couple minutes while I “wait for the light to turn green”

Nope, it’s still flashing yellow, like it has been, and has been after the last couple resets of everything between me and the wall

Oh you’ll send a technician out? Thx.

Here’s the link to the site:

I haven’t poked around yet

Edit: there’s nothing else really, unless there’s some hidden urls

I’m glad nothing went awry. I was always skeptical about it because no one figured it out. It’s crazy what we do especially as kids with our innocent bliss

It’s hard to get over “that”. It feels good but vulnerable to let yourself out. But literally no one cares

This scene has resonated with me for a while and I love it and embrace it

Oh that looks so fun! I’ll definitely check it out. I feel that I might be able to scrounge together a group that would enjoy this

That reminds me of a “game” kids would (try) to play when I was young at school. The kids would say to do just that “bend over, take a deep breath” and the other one would try to lift them up really quickly. I never saw it work. I guess you were supposed to pass out. Idk

I recently had an rfid scanner immediately rma-d back that had just been returned to us. The new issue was caused by a setting and not by a defect. I asked our IT/help desk if it WAS a setting that could be changed

“I don’t know. I get the thing, I check these settings, I check those settings, that’s all I know”

😑😑😑

So me and another person are out of our equipment for another couple weeks while the scanner is sent back for “repairs” and the repair people will go “😑 tap tap tap idiots”

(Edit: I know it’s a setting because I talked with the other person who uses it and I explained the issue and he let me know it is something he changes)

That was fascinating thank you! I watched the whole thing. There’s a ton of work those people put into making their iron. Truly a community effort

My opinion: I agree with these points. It’s nice having a news aggregator. It’s simple and free and gives a generous amount of sources for each news story

I’ve got a lot on my plate and curating news feeds is a low priority

Thank you, I appreciate the response

As a neighbor down south, I read PP as planned parenthood. I know that’s not the case but I looked at ddg for Canada pp and that’s what I found. I’m really not trying to be dense but I would like clarification (because I’m a certified dumbass and don’t get nuance or hints at times)

Thanks and I’m trying to understand!
