I set an alarm on May 8th the moment they opened reservations. Got an email on June 11th asking for me to confirm my purchase details and submit an order. Submitted that day and then received the controller on June 17th.

This is how my normie friends at a party look at me when I tell them to put on Too Many Cooks

You shut your dirty whore mouth

I remember my friend bringing over his Xbox and playing Halo for the first time. I was constantly looking down at the ground while he was pistol sniping me across the map. Figured it out eventually.

I mean...flappy meats...

This comes in handy

Facebook absolutely builds ghost profiles for people who don't have a Facebook profile. You see all of those "Like" buttons on non-Facebook websites? Those are cookies that are essentially tracking you. They may not have your first/last name or other personal data as a regular profile, but they can build a pretty damn good composite of you.

Ugh man, Concord gets fan servers but I can't play BF1943 anymore...cruel world.

Life Pro Tip - Jenny's number also (usually) works at the grocery checkout line to get the advertised store member discount on items. Choose whichever area code you like, someone has likely set it up in the past.

Pretty exciting announcement! I was thinking about building a new rig and retiring my current machine with a 3080 to the TV. This might change that.

What I'm more curious about is how are the folks at Microsoft reacting to this news, since it sounds like the next Xbox was essentially going to be a PC. With Valve doing it first and the fact that the Steam store is so huge, I'm imagining this makes them a bit nervous.

As a Lemm.ee refugee, thanks for having me here!

Already been done! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8yW5cyXXRc

Is that Mei from Overwatch, owned by the corporation formally known as Blizzard, now Microsoft?

It's in reference to a game, Disco Elysium, and the main character you play as, Raphaël Ambrosius Costeau.

No, they're referring to The Outer Wilds. They're absolutely right, The Outer Wilds was infinitely better than The Outer Worlds. Granted, they were doing different things but holy shit I wish I could replay Other Wilds for the first time again. One of the best experiences ever!

If I were 20 years older, I'd be happy to spec out a mini-ITX build. But with a 3 year old running my life, my time is limited and if the price of this is right, it might make more sense for where my current life is at.

It already takes me 15 minutes to brew about 10 cups of coffee for myself.

We had a town hall at my company today and they demo'd their new AI product. It looked and sounded impressive, until you realized it wasn't the actual product but a Figma demo. If this thing ever sees the light of day, and it actually works without hallucinating bullshit data points, I'll eat my socks.

Hey David, I think my current budget is too tight to afford the current price.

That said, I still have free HBO through my AT&T internet, despite moving 3 months ago and being told I would lose access as that promotion nis longer being offered.

For the past year we've been jumping around subscription services, only paying for one at a time while we watch whatever it is we're looking to catch up on.

Also, building up a Jellyfish library on the side.

Is this why my work phone email hasn't updated since yesterday? I was too lazy to go to my work laptop, so just decided to sleep all day instead.
