$40. No microtransactions, denuvo or forced ubisoft launcher and I'd buy this. I have a feeling it will have all of the above and still be overpriced for a remaster.

Carsie's newest album with the burning hell is great.

But what about the pterodactyl noise?

Ok, this is getting me excited. Completely forgot about the speed cameras and jumps in Paradise and recall liking that aspect.

I'll admit Japan is what got me looking, but it's sounding like something I might actually really enjoy.

I played 3-6 hours when I had FH5 on GamePass, and it was a LOT of fun. I personally did not find it very engaging, though, so I didn't stick with it

I think this is probably my main concern. I'll get it, enjoy it for a few hours and get bored. Hopefully the story or progression is engaging enough to keep my interest. Because just driving around I know would get boring fairly quickly.

 

Not big into racing games, but FH6 is making me interested. Last racing game I really got into was burnout paradise on the PS3 I think. I don't care about online at all, this would pretty much be solo story play, and exploring Tokyo.

I just don't know much about forza, the different editions, if I'd like the controls. Is horizon more like burnout or NFS, or more sim racing?

Pretty sure the only denuvo game I've "bought" was one of the tomb raiders, and it came as a code with my gpu. I have bought at least 1 game for my ps5 that I would have preferred to have on pc, because of denuvo. But I also purchased physical in that instance. I don't mind paying, but I also have nothing against piracy. I do have issue with online activation on offline games though and will usually just skip them entirely.

But also denuvo seems to be getting some real cracks not just the HV stuff. So maybe it'll get cracked and they won't want to pay for it anymore, then I can buy it on sale (beacause I'm not paying full price if I have to wait for a crack)

Same. Which is unfortunate, because the demo was fun and I think it'll be a good game.

Now, for my dilemma. If I really want to play something that has malware attached. Do I just not buy it, or buy it on console?

This sucks sooo fucking much, but it's true. I don't network, and the only way I've had decent jobs is by the people in the company getting to know me and moving up. My current job is at the place I did security for, for 3 years while getting my degree.

 

First asparagus spear popping out of the ground. Was a bit worried as I didn't spread the roots as much as I should have, but I think they're going to be ok. Hopefully the other 23 crowns grow soon.

Is this really what most people want? I don't even know what social features steam has. I just want a functional storefront that doesn't fight me at every step. I stopped grabbing the free games on windows because the constant capchas were horrible. I'm on linux now, and it's a little better using herioc but I still don't even bother to look as there's issues there too, mainly the store doesn't scale and I'm on my TV at 200% so the store text is really tiny.

It's not about performance for me. I'm not paying for a single player offline game that requires internet. I was around for the Spore DRM. That started with 3 activations and having to call EA for more. Even the current 5 activations per day is too restrictive, as I've heard changing proton version counts as an activation. If I don't own it (yes technically you don't steam games, but I think I could easily bypass steam protection and still play my games if it came down to it) I'm not buying it.

That was a stray that we took in a couple winters ago. Once spring hit she didn't want to be a indoor cat anymore. Unfortunately, I think a coyote got her. I saw one in the neighborhood and she never came back. But yeah, definitely going for shred proof on the deck.

 

5 pressure treated 2x4x8. Framed in the doorway and installed the screen door. Still to do. I have some black 1/2" fencer wire coming. Going to turn it into a small catio. Total cost, about $240 for the wood, screen door and fencer wire. Already had all the screws etc. I needed.

There have been a handful of breakthrough infections this year. While 92 percent of the nation’s measles cases were unvaccinated or their vaccination status was unknown, four percent were fully vaccinated, the agency’s data shows.

4% vaccinated infection. If it wasn't for the 92% of anti-vaxers getting it, I'm pretty sure none of the vaccinated would have either. So even with the potential less effective dose for people like myself that according to your dates only got one shot, infections would still be pretty much non existent if not for anti-vax.

 

Been an nvidia fan most of my life. But between Windows 10 EoL, and nvidia still gimping their GPUs ram it was time to move on. New 9070 xt. Figuring out optiscaler for fsr4 was an initial hurdle but now that everything is up and working initial impressions are great.

 

Looking to put gutters here.

This is how others next door are done, as well as how the ones I'm replacing were done previously. Basically a downspout connected between two gutter's via a hole cut in them.

Is this actually the correct way to do this, or is there a better way that doesn't seem so janky and leak prone.

 

First time trying to plant onions. I'm in a long day zone, 8b. Bought 2 packs of seeds from the local home center, walla walla and red Burgundy. Walla seems to be a long day, and at least from my internet search red is short.

Was planning on doing fall planting and over winter. Question would be if I'm wasting my time on the reds or if a short day onion will bulb in a long day zone if planted in fall?

I was also planning on doing some spring planting as well, and comparing the 2. I'm guessing walla walla would be ok for that but not red.

 

Currently running Kali on my laptop as that's all it was used for. Looking for something more general purpose. Mainly steam for light gaming and being able to install the tools from Kali for stuff like tryhackme. Mostly familiar with Debian, as that's what Kali is based on, but willing to try something else. Laptop is this Acer.
