Click on it too much, you’ll be deemed a unfixable risk and bye bye job. Just be careful out there!

Correction: I have been playing HackNet! My bad, i misread your post. Clearly we need more names for cool games. I /am/ now looking at NetHack though :)

Played it for the first time recently! Unfortunately it seems to have some stability problems, it doesn’t launch saves for me so I’m on hiatus

In fairness, some games serve their purpose and are done. A simulator can run out of upgrades and new functions. Fall guys is live service but you can still play all the maps and be content you’ve had enough.

A game can end, or you can be done with something even if you haven’t completed it and that’s okay. Play to have fun, if you aren’t having fun stop playing it, life is too short to force yourself to keep going when it’s no longer rewarding.

Now this is a truly difficult take to read. I found the game utterly charming. The exploration of relationship between the player, the player character, and the narrator is great fun and well written. Finding all the endings requires cleverness and outside the box thinking. It’s a very British humor type of game but it’s worth every penny.

Out of curiosity, what alternatives in the genre would you recommend?

Don’t forget the huge data breaches and paying again to use the Internet you already pay for!

Had to get it with my girlfriend a bit before I was comfortable co-owning with her and it’s in a small town but it’s worked out so far a bit under a year in. A little worried about what would happen if I lost my job but who doesn’t worry about that kinda thing. I’m very fortunate, not many of my peers are so stable right now.

30 in a couple months, not ready but at least I got a house so I can feel mildly like I have my shit together.

I did no mow August 2025 to April 2026, it was a good run.

I mowed my 8-12 inch grass yesterday. Its my side yard where I hadn’t mowed since I moved in last August. Took me three hours with my mower stalling out many times. My mantra was just: “It only has to suck once.”

Everything is sore today and I have some fun blisters but it’s done. Hell yeah.

I’d love to have more people on my ship but setting it to public doesn’t do much and gods help me if I think I can swing pitching this game to my gaming group

The French actually automated their barbers back in the day, mind you it was pretty limited in style. But hey, all nazis love matching their Nazi buddies so “a little off the top” is a style we should ensure they wear!

Man, you mentioning pirates online had a reboot was news to me. I played it for like an hour as a kid and always wondered how good it was. Long story short I mastered fishing yesterday and am enjoying the experience even if it did derail my entire day.

Hey, happened to the best of us so don’t sweat it, I’m glad you were excited to share some science so I’m grateful for that.

What have we learned that’s so mind blowing?

Don’t forget food, energy, and climate crisises that are already well underway no matter how well we solve the fascist billionaires problem

That’s 80$-90$ in Canada, that’s just waaay too much for a video game. I’ll wait until the homebrew scene gets off the ground first.

I don’t have a whole lot to spare but I’ve sent you a couple Canadian dollars. Give your kitten some love from me ❤️
