Re: I have all the vaccines!

I suspect we're going to need to do this every 6 months to a year from now until eternity, because people are unbelievably fucking stupid/lazy/selfish. As long as there's a subset of the population that refuses to wear a mask in public spaces when there's a mask mandate (and many retailers have give...

Halo Infinite

Yup... I suck at it, but it's free. I didn't grow up with this like every other person I played with last night (gooch, my youngest son, and a bunch of guys I've never talked to before who were enjoying martinis while they played), so it was just another FPS for me and not a journey through nostalgi...

Re: I have all the vaccines!

...but I also don't want to be "that guy" that jumps the line. Yeah... that's kinda how I got my first dose. I was taking your step mom in for her first shot and didn't ask for one myself (I was 2 years under the age limit). One of the administrators approached me and asked if I'd like to...

I have all the vaccines!

I went to my Dr. yesterday for my once every 3 month "pee in a jar to make sure you're taking your meds and you're doing it right because after 20 years of everything being perfect, we still don't trust you" meeting. While I was there, I asked if I could get a flu shot and a booster for CO...

Re: GTA 5 Online SMH moment

I think you just posted the best synopsis of why I don't play GTA 5 online anymore. Ugh. As bad as it can be when other players act like they're 8 years old (and, because some people are terrible parents, they often are), it's worse when you run into a modder who's constantly blowing your car up/tel...

Re: Far Cry 6

Ugh... this is all I get today:

There's a new Nvidia driver, released today. I'm going to do a clean install of that and pray (my old drivers were updated when the game first launched).

Re: Far Cry 6

LOL! They pushed a patch yesterday that refused to install (no error message) and broke my game. After messing around with it for an hour I figured it out though (not enough disk space, had to uninstall some crap I never play). Its working now. What did the patch fix? They're not really saying and j...

Re: A moment of silence for my cell phone, please

The insurance company paid me with an Amazon gift card. This would be great if Amazon actually had the phone in stock, but they don't. I ended up ordering it direct from Samsung (for several hundred more than I had originally paid thanks to the chip shortage). I'll use the credit with Amazon to help...

A moment of silence for my cell phone, please

Yesterday, we suffered a tragic loss to my family. My beloved cell phone (Samsung Galaxy S21 512GB) slipped from my fingers when gravity greedily grabbed it and the screen spent some quality facetime with the metal base of my floor lamp. Thankfully, after about eleventy billion attempts, I was able ...

I'm finally past all the tutorial BS and can play like a big boy. Sadly I'm also really distracted by Starbase, so I haven't played FC6 much at all.

Far Cry 6

Yup... it's out, and so far both Gooch and I have given far too much money directly to Ubisoft. They've made the decision to withhold their flagship games from the Steam platform because they feel Steam's business model is unfair (and also, they get to keep 100% of the profits if you buy it directly...

Re: Quantum Fiber

That sucks, but when they get it working, give them my phone number and tell them to come and take my money.

Seriously, I'll just be standing at the end of my driveway waiving it in the air screaming "SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!!" until they show up.

Also: no one likes a cheater :)
