[Epic Moments in Anime]

Scissor seven has been so underrated.

[Last movie watched?]

Abandoned - 7.5/10

[Last Game Played]

Played some Skyrim SE with my modified Shadow Samurai build. When I say this is the most busted build I've ever came up with without even trying that hard. The worst part is my character isn't even a dragonborn so he can't use shouts or absorb souls to gain stat boosts like my modded Dragonborn one. Out of all the builds I've done, I think that only my Cosmic Dragonborn who can control time and space trumps this build.

[Do You Take Herbal Supplements?]

I'm curious about the benefits and potential drawbacks of herbal supplements. Do you use them regularly? What kinds have you tried, and how have they impacted your health? Any recommendations or things to watch out for?

[Have You Ever Been in the Newspaper?]

Has anyone here ever found themselves featured in a newspaper? Whether it was for something major like a community event, a personal achievement, or even just a quirky story, I'd love to hear about your experiences. For me, I was in the newspaper for finishing 4th in the Spelling Bee as a kid. I was also in the newspaper for winning a couple of Martial Arts tournaments also as a kid.

[How Healthy Is Your Diet?]

Hey everyone, I’m curious about how different people approach their diets. What does a typical day of eating look like for you? Do you follow any specific dietary guidelines or restrictions? How do you balance indulgence with nutrition?

[Do You Prefer Home-Cooked Meals or Restaurant Food?]

When it comes to meals, do you find yourself enjoying home-cooked food more, or do you prefer the variety and convenience of restaurant food? What factors play into your choice -taste, convenience, cost, or maybe something else?

[How Long Have You Lived in Your Current Home?]

I'm curious how long people tend to stay in their current homes. Have you recently moved, or have you been in the same place for years? What keeps you there, or what makes you want to move? I'm coming up on 6 years and starting to reflect on my time here. How about you?

[Cash, Card, or Mobile/Smartwatch Payments: Which Do You Prefer?]

With so many payment options available, I'm curious what everyone prefers. Do you stick to the tried-and-true cash, swipe your card, or opt for the convenience of mobile payments or smartwatches? What’s your go-to method and why? Is it security, ease, or just habit that influences your choice?

[Classic Windows games]

I miss the original Sims, Fallout, and Diablo..

Facts. I used to play all these games as a kid on PC.

[Most Challenging game you've Beaten?]

For me, it was Hollow Knight. The platforming and precise combat really tested my patience, but the feeling of finally beating the final boss was incredibly satisfying. Like a massive weight was lifted off my shoulders.

[PC, console, or handheld ??]

I'm primarily a PC gamer due to the options we have for customizing hardware, modding our games and ability to play a whole host games from other platforms using emulators and other software options.

[Longest gaming marathon you've ever had]

I'd say a 24 hour one and it was Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas on a Saturday. I basically played the whole time with a few breaks in between for food and bathroom use.

[RPGs, FPS, or strategy games]

I tend to gravitate toward RPGs because I love immersive storytelling and the freedom to shape my character’s journey. There's something special about exploring deep lore, making decisions that influence the narrative, and seeing the world evolve based on my choices.

[Gaming convention or event?]

I have attended local gaming conventions before but nothing major like E3 or Summer game fest which I'd like to attend one day.

[What Antivirus Are You Using and Why?]

Personally, my antivirus combo is Windows Defender and Malwarebytes. I've been using both for close to a decade and haven't had any issues with viruses in a long time.

[Alternatives to Microsoft Word, Google Docs, and Notability for Note-Taking?]

I think I might just go for Notion. Zoho Writer and Bear are fantastic alternatives but Notion falls more in line with what I need at the moment.

[What's Your Level of Expertise When It Comes to Fixing Your Computer?]

I'd say I'm a mid-level DIYer. I can only handle software issues and basic hardware upgrades, but when it comes to complex problems or delicate components, I prefer to seek professional help.

 

I'd say I'm at above average level as in I can fix a lot of complicated problems as I used to work in a friend's computer store part-time as a technician in my teens so I learned how to work on PCs from that time.

[What Did You Learn in Your School Computer Classes?]

On 9/13/2024 at 9:06 AM, Button said:

Yes, I had computer classes in school. We covered basic coding and Microsoft Office. This has really sparked my interest in tech and helped me develop problem-solving skills too. 

 

Same here. All we did was basic coding, a bit of web design and learning how to use Microsoft Office.

[How Many Hours a Day Do You Spend on Your Computer?]

Personally, I probably average 10+ hours most days as I work online so using my computer is a must. Plus it's my favorite platform to game on.

[What's Your Favorite Computer Accessory?]

On 9/13/2024 at 9:10 AM, Button said:

My favorite accessory is my ergonomic keyboard. To be honest with you, it's been a game-changer for my typing speed. I also love my portable external monitor for multitasking on-the-go. 

A portable monitor is also one of my favorites especially when you need an extra monitor on the go. I have one that I carry around with my laptop.

[Honor of Kings]

To be honest, it looks like another generic mobile cesspool of a game in my opinion. The type that charges you for every little thing. Of course, I could be wrong but when it comes to most mobile games, I'm usually not.

[Zoeti]

Thanks for the heads-up. I've been into deckbuilders lately, so Zoeti sounds like it could be right up my alley. How's the learning curve, especially with the different characters' abilities?

[Snake Game]

I totally remember the Snake Game! It was the go-to for anyone with a Nokia phone back then. The simplicity of it made it so addicting. I still think about trying to beat my high score sometimes. Did you ever reach the point where the snake took up almost the entire screen?
