Yup, I was friends with his older brother. Both of them were/are a bit weird, didn't think much of either of them academically until grade 12. Then their math & and computer genious came out. Had a few university classes with them, the older brother has better social skills, but Lee is more creative IMHO.

Upshot is I played Capsized in 2009, so that was neat.

I need to try out Xonotic. I went to high school with the guy who started the original game, who runs Alientrap now.

I've been meaning to try the original Crysis now that I have a computer that can play it. I started it, but then life happened.

DOOM Eternal didn't do it for me. It's Doom-ish, but not enough. It'd be a better game if it wasn't set in the Doom universe trying to add a bunch of non-Doom elements to the game. Doom (2016) did that too, but not to the same extent. I like the older Dooms mostly for their simplicity: get gun, see bad guy, shoot gun. Pick up health. Repeat. Doom Eternal did that, but added a story, weapon mods, and skills. Fine mechanics, but not Doom enough for me.

I once caught gay from a used marijuana needle. Never again. Took a lot of prayer and fasting to make that go away. Ban it. Ban it all!

(/s, of course. Shouldn't be necessary but this is the internet....)

People think of the Celtic languages originated in Western Europe, but in reality the Celtic tribes were driven West by invading Germanic tribes. Looks like Albanian just happened to survive.

The ones I've seen are extruded plastic shaped that way.

With a high enough mains voltage absolutely.

A few friends and I are planning a 90s lan. Simple rules like no games published after 2001-08-23, no internet, only self-hosted servers, and all shit talking must be out loud. Also shit talking must be kid safe since we're all old and have kids old enough to be competent but young enough we don't want to teach them the true art of shit talking.

A horse can have a painful bite, but 99.7% of the time their bite means "please fuck off".

If they want to make you fuck off after not heeding their warnings, they'll use their hooves.

I tend to get new soccer balls only when there's a world cup. I just buy the current world cup replica. My favourites are South Africa and Qatar.

Table.. top.. dishwasher? What sorcery is this?

 

The government walked away from the table today. The STF announced new sanctions, including withdrawing noon supervision.
