Capt. Wolf

Shut up, brain! When we were 9, you didn’t even know what cringe was!

I look forward to the day when I pass my screen name on to my son…

And, to this day, I still crave that super thin wedge of pizza once in a while.

What a weird thing to add all of a sudden…

Totally imagine that’s going to make the fight a cakewalk.

Honestly, one of the most impressive out of all the ones I’ve tried. Entirely new game maps, plus soul and weapon randomization. Totally random effects, so you can end up with weapons that are completely useless and won’t hit anything, or ones that fire like handguns. So much customization to make it as hard or as easy as you want. Also, I absolutely love that they also randomized the dialogue too. Sometimes it’s gibberish, sometimes it’s actually funny. Totally worth giving it a try!

Love this site. I check it almost every week to see if anything cool has been added. When retro games started getting boring for me, randomizer gave me a whole new way to play. One of my go to “I’m bored, but don’t know what to do” games is rolling up an Aria of Sorrow seed or one of the DSVania games to see what I get.

Next update: Well, we never actually removed the feature because it’s already irrevocably engrained in the file system. It can’t be turned off or opted out of because it’ll cause your hard drive to explode. Instead, we’ve buried it so deep that only hackers, malware, the government, and Facebook will be able to make use of it.

Truly a god among video game musicians.

Rest in peace, dude…

Then don’t use it.

Or fork it and remove all instances of the word. Put the pearls down, you’re grinding them to dust.

From what I’ve seen on their site since is that they’re saying they are now GDPR compliant. And I suppose, since they are still open source, that anyone finding anything seriously malicious would have pointed it out by now. Maybe just a bit of bad press and people jumping to conclusions because “Russia bad.”

I do still plan to check out Tenacity though and see if it’s a better project.

Gonna share this, because I had no idea… I think the last time I updated Audacity was, like, 10 years ago…

Here’s Tenacity, which I’ll be checking out shortly…

The torch has been passed…

Sites like that saved me thousands getting my psych degree. God bless professors like this. Also the ones who were like, “the new edition of the book you need for this semester is $500, but you can get the previous edition for $5 at this site. Here’s copies of the pages that were changed.” or “I photocopied every page you need for this semester from the book for all of you.”

I got my copy free when I bought my PS2 hard drive and never played it once.

I lost my best friend to that game. He got into playing it so much after high school that he basically stopped doing anything else. I’d call him to hang out and he’d ghost me to play the game instead. Eventually I gave up trying…

My friends now want me to get into FFXIV and I absolutely refuse.

You forgot the sound of a Sunchips bag. My not even conceived children are going to be deaf because I opened one back in the 90s.

Ah, the best series I had no idea what I was doing in…

That was kind of the point though I guess. Don’t know how many hours I spent in X² just flying around doing nothing until I’d make a mistake and die.

Also, your comment lead me to check out when X-Com first came out and I found out that the original creator had a totally different series with the same kind of tactical play style for the ZX Spectrum, Rebelstar. There was a release for the GBA that plays very much like original X-Com. Liking it so far.

X-Com devs’ lawyers have entered chat.

They’ve been a shit company for over a decade at least.

I got a laptop for my wife back when we were in college. It developed a problem with the monitor where the screen would look all corrupt after using it for a little bit. My wife, while reciting the prayer of percussive maintenance, would whack it and the problem would go away for a while. So I figured the connection had come loose. No biggie, just reseat it or replace it. The warranty had expired, so I cracked it open to see what was wrong. I reseated the cables in it and it worked… for a bit. Then the problem came back. Eventually we got fed up and bought another one, same model, figuring it was a fluke… It developed the same issue. Come to find out, Asus cheaped out in the ribbon cable for the monitor and installed ones that were too short for the laptop. Looking online, there were a bunch of people complaining about the same thing.

Around the same time as I had gotten her the new laptop, I’d also bought an Asus ZenPad for her to read on. We’ll, that suddenly developed a screen issue too! Almost exactly the same as the laptops! My wife, ever eager to apply kinetic reinforcement, found that twisting the tablet a little bit also fixed the issue. I went online and, sure enough, Asus used cheap cables again! They would last just long enough for the warranty to expire before they’d detach.

I swore to myself I’ll never buy another Asus product as long as I live. If I ever have kids, I’ll disown them if they do too… Fuck these scammers.
