Picked up Star of Providence this past weekend and I’m hooked, the pause menu music has been looping in my head nonstop since

Sword Saint is the single most satisfying boss victory I’ve ever experienced, no action game NPC has ever made me feel more like I was being outskilled by an actual person

A factually accurate one lol

“Could be” lol k

Maybe because they don’t want deranged westerners ranting about their political grudges in a video game chat?

No it’s not, and finding out for yourself would be extremely easy if you cared to put even a little effort in

His motives were downright prescient, but his targets were poorly chosen to put it lightly

Of course they would, they’re hypocrites

Lol

I’m glad to hear it, I’m far enough past it to laugh now but at the time I was fairly upset. Lesson learned, don’t try to hotbox a bag!

I was in high school and new to weed, couldn’t afford a lot of it so I was trying to maximize efficiency, had the idea that hotboxing in a smaller space would concentrate the smoke making it easier to reinhale more of it, decided to try smoking a bowl with one of those huge yard trash bags draped over me. I managed to get into the bag with my bowl successfully, but I had long hair at the time & when I tried to light the bowl my bangs got in the way and were lit on fire a little, not enough to injure me but more than enough to trap me in a small space with a large amount of burnt hair smoke. In the struggle to escape I spilled the bowl.

It is absolutely nothing like the invention of the printing press

They can, but that would at best be a hard reset on their reputation as an author, and unlikely to work long-term

The entire sountrack from the original Toejam & Earl on Genesis, shit rewired my child brain in funky new ways

You’re blaming China for shit that is being done by US companies, wrong and stupid and also arguably racist

Sausage is meat, just ground up. People use the term “american cheese” to refer to a variety of products, ranging from almost all real cheese with a small percentage of emulsifier added, to shit like Kraft singles which is mostly milk protein concentrate and emulsifier with a small percentage of real cheese added (allegedly). The latter is usually labelled “pasteurized process cheese food/product” or something similar, US law forbids actually calling it cheese if the cheese content is less than 95% iirc

The car adapter did kick ass, but I never got to use it because looking at anything other than the road while in a moving vehicle would instantly make me nauseous. I do vaguely remember it getting very hot, alarmingly so in retrospect, but I didn’t know shit about exploding batteries at 5 years old so I never worried about it.

Sega GameGear. That thing had a better screen than any portable gaming device would for another 20+ years, but it would eat 6 AA batteries in less than an hour. There were rechargable battery packs you could get for it but they were heavy as shit and didn’t last noticeably longer, you could play it with the battery pack plugged into the charger but then you’re not actually mobile at all so you might as well play the same games on the Genesis.
