I hit my head on basement staircase ceilings to asset dominance.

Still alive and going strong, only takes a couple weeks for them to update to the latest version of tarkov live. Some people even like to stay in tarkov.

The game scratches an itch for me that no other video games has ever been able to. Really sucks that the devs are awful. Really hoping a good replacement game comes out sometime.

I can’t order Jimmy John’s on my work computer anymore. Why? Because tiktok is blocked on our work network. What does tiktok have to do with Jimmy John’s? Well I would have thought nothing expect it won’t let you set your delivery option unless it’s allowed to send data to analytics.tiktok.com.

Why is a God damn sandwich shop sending my location to tiktok? No idea, but it’s definitely not just the video app that’s the problem.

That’s not true, there were several free antiviruses that were considered good back then. I’d say quality free antivirus were more popular in the mid-00s to late 00s than they are now after Windows defender got usable.

I stream because i enjoy playing single player games and it’s nice having people to hang out with and share the experiences. I know I will never “hit it big”, I don’t have enough time to put in since I work full time. But I enjoy playing video games and it’s cool to make a little side cash on your hobby.

The biggest toxicity in streaming is typically from yourself. Always watching your followers numbers and viewership, wondering what you did because one stream did worse than another. I find myself falling into that trap as well sometimes and it definitely makes wanting to stream again hard.

As someone who has lived in Indiana for 31 years, if you actually talk to people without mentioning R or D, a large percentage of their values like up with Democrats. But as soon as you compare that to democratic policies, they immediately go into excuses for why they’d never vote for a Democrat. Abortion is really the only Republican policy that they support, and even then a lot of them still support it “but not the way the Democrats do, up to the moment before birth”.

The issue is that Democrats practically ignore us here so there’s no information campaigns to correct all the misinformation they get from Fox news and the like.

It’s really frustrating going back to my rural bumfuck town and seeing all the legitimately good people who have been brainwashed into Republican support by friends and neighbors.

99% of the people in that office had absolutely nothing to do with the decision that upper management made. They are just working for a living. They didn’t choose anything, they chose to not starve. Fuck off with punishing the entire work force for the greed of a few individuals.

You know things have gone wrong when people are cheering on Oracle.

I also have been paying for Premium the last couple years and I completely agree. I get more value out of my premium subscription than I do Netflix or Max. Plus premium supports the creators more than ads do.

I think they had mostly worked on point-and-click games before Gollum. Clearly they weren’t ready to scale up to a project as large as a LoTR title. Sad to see though nevertheless.
