Right, but it might still have to be you paying, insurance or no.

It might be that you HAD to be the one to pay for it. When I hit a certain age, all the insurance cheques were made out to me, and I had to deposit them and transfer the money to my parents.

(Though this was insurance for therapy, so maybe it’s different?)

My strategy is to add updates to an hourly cronjob, and curse profusely when it downloads a bad update.

Freeways is a great game that makes me want to tear my hair out.

Bit after my time

Latish Gen Z here, it never really needed to click. Its been there the whole time, so it’s just a norm part of life, like it’s always been. Like, I get that it’s insane, but it’s not out of the norm for me, because it IS my norm. My parents were decently strict when I was little, but once I hit my tweens they gave me a LOT of slack.

I mean, makes sense given the cocaine. There’s an entire book he has no me.lry of writing because he was just doing a shit ton of cocaine.

Automachef is the most unique factory game I’ve ever played. You make factories to handle food orders, try to reuse as many parts as possible to save cost, figure out how to handle massive rush hour mobs without burning too much power or dropping orders, and so on.

Down the line, this game has its own coding language for controlling machines and handling orders. It’s got a puzzle campaign, and a whole contracts mode, all around a good time. You can make VERY tight factories, especially with late game tech.

3 meals a day is completely unnecessary, and just eating one large meal works just as well. Saves time, too. I can sleep in because no breakfast to worry about cooking, lunch can be used to just relax or do something else, and then dinner is larger, but cooking more of the same food doesn’t generally take that much longer.

Kid drank thallium rat poison, in an attempt to commit suicide. Thing is, thallium doesn’t kill you, it just makes you vomit a LOT. So they had to evacuate the classroom because there was a bunch of thallium and vomit everywhere.

The best part is we weren’t allowed to leave for 2 hours, because this happened at like 10 and they still wanted the day to count for the school year.

I had the solution to the main game spoiled for me YEARS ago. I have the game sitting on an external hard drive, just waiting for my brain to forget.

The lab was full of bees, how else were we supposed to read the graphs?

I bought SoD a while ago, and while I dont regret it, its gotten worse and worse. I use a laptop for everything, gaming included. The game has gone from running at a steadyish 30 fps (which is totally fine and usable, I don’t understand high fps people) to being an unstable mess that maaaaaybe hits 20 fps if I stand still.

Even ignoring the gameplay issues, this game needs WORK.

Teenager here, I regularly buy CDs at bagpipe concerts* because there’s no unique bagpipe music on streaming services.

*Bagpipe concerts here means renn faire performances

Space, because I enjoy chaos.
