My cat is no longer with us as she passed last July at the age of 12 but I would often joke around and make up things she would probably be saying to us when she would look at us, it often made my kids laugh to be honest. Sad reality is, if she could speak, she more than likely would have said half the stuff I said she would say if she could talk. LOL

I used to eat ketchup sandwiches all the time as a kid. I loved it. Not so much now though, but I would still choose a ketchup sandwich over cereal with orange juice. That just seems like acid puke. Dry cereal would be way better. 

I'm going to do that with my own audio recording and set an alarm to go off 1 minute after I walk away. It would be hilarious.

Actually I think it was the steam powered tricycle. Goes fast as 2 mph and you have to stop every 15 minutes. 

Well, ok maybe my dreams are crushed. 

If I use a laptop, I'm usually using it plugged into the outlet. I will sometimes use my laptop unplugged, but it's rare. I mean, I sit in the same spot with it anyway, and I don't take it out of the house ever, so I don't see a point in unplugging it unless I am on the go. 
As for screen brightness, I tend to turn that down low, for one, when I do unplug it, it saves on battery life, and two, it's better on the eyes. I also use the night light mode where it turns your screen a yellow tint to help with the blue lights. 

Yeah, it is interesting that people call the Aya Neo and the others "Steam Deck clones" when they came out first, but these people who have this weird loyalty to Steam tend to be slightly stupid, so it isn't a shock.
 
Still, the Steam Deck itself isn't without merit. The hardware is powerful and it's well priced It is a good option for PC gaming on the go. Whilst the having the name Steam written all over hasn't exactly hurt it's sales, that doesn't mean the people who bought it were misled or were ignorant of thier options.

They kind of already did something similar with Shaolin Monks I believe it was. In that game I believe you could play co-op. It was essentially a beat 'em up where you played as either Liu Kang and or Kung Lao. Supposedly the story takes place during MKII. I remember hearing about it and from the looks of it, is kind of similar to the sub-zero game, but this time it's actually good. 
I watched a playthrough of it years ago and I think it's also more open, as you can walk in all directions instead of left and right. But I may be wrong, it's been a long time. 
As for future games like that, I'm all for it. More single player/co-op beat 'em ups would be nice. 

It does look like a decent game that has some interesting mechanics but if all you're doing is exploring, it's going to get quite repetitive. Couldn't they have monsters roaming the island and like you have to craft things like catapults to deal with them or those huge siege weapons of the medieval age.

I don't know - it does look really unique but it's quite a bit over the top for my liking. Not sure they are running out of ideas yet and the Series S does sell pretty well (obviously when compared to the X, it's totally outmatched but still has decent sales).

Sarcastaball would be funny as hell to watch.
 
 
 

Exactly. It's almost like saying video games is better than Football. It doesn't really make sense to compare the two. Gaming is its own thing, much like tv is. Sure gaming may make a lot more money than movies and tv, but each of the mediums have their place. 
It just comes down to what you like more or less. Someone might hate gaming and prefer to watch movies, and vice versa. 
And yeah, everything has pros and cons attached to it, one thing can be better than the other in different aspects, but I don't think it ever overpowers one or the other. 
If anything, gaming can help television, look at The Last of Us show right now, it's blowing up and now more people are taking notice of the idea of video game adaptations in tv form. It may have kinda failed with Halo, but the Last of Us is enough to show that gaming can be turned into tv. And I can see more games being turned into tv. I hear someone mentioned wanting a RDR tv show next. I would take that for sure. :D

I believe they should be thoroughly evaluated before such a claim can have any substance. I have noticed in quite a few court cases in the United States, the person that is claiming mental illness planned such a methodical crime yet the jury and judge accepts their plea of insanity. I believe majority of them use it as a way to escape jail time and to not be held accountable for their actions.

I have been listening to Eminem for as long as I can remember.
He is just to good with bests that he pretty much does magic with any beat he jumps on.

Eminem is one of the best. A lot of his songs have so much emotion and pain. When I'm Gone, I Need a Doctor, Beautiful. Those are some of his most amazing songs.
 
 
 

If someone was trying to rape a female family member, and the only way I could stop them would be by killing the would-be rapist... I would do it in a heartbeat. 
However, I do not believe that killing them would be a good thing to do, or even an okay thing to do. I just believe it would be a necessary thing to do. 
The defence rests entirely on the fact that it's the only way to stop an innocent person from coming to serious harm. If there was some other, non-lethal, means of achieving the same result, then I would be morally obliged to use the non-lethal means instead. A necessary evil, without the necessity, just becomes plain evil.

I remember what that movie A Time To Kill is about but I forget the details. If there was a system in place protecting someone who raped and killed a child, trying to protect that person's reputation or simply because they are racist and see another person or child as unworthy of justice, then the rapist/killer would be free to do it again. Then I have to say that would be a time to seek vigilante justice.
But think about the case of Ahmaud Arbery's murder. Vigilantes pretty much made a false accusation, tried to make a citizen's arrest, held him at gun point as a captive, then killed him. A prosecutor refused to charge the men and she now faces charges too. And in the court room, the defendant's lawyer tried to get the jury to be more red neck. They even demonized Arbery's body saying he had dirty toenails as a reference to a slave. What if the system all got away with their obstruction and let those three men free? Would that be a time to kill? Should we discriminate and kill for a child but nor for a grown man???
If they get away with it, and the system gets away with it, then that issue becomes widespread and just plain corrupt. We need the system to be able to do its job and hold criminals accountable. If that fails, and the problem becomes larger, then what happens is a revolt. People will take justice in their own hands. Because that ends up being a threat to everyone who looks like that particular victim. This also can become a double edged sword if vigilantes take matters in their own hands because who is to say who is right? Rittenhouse went on a premeditated killing spree and others think he was a good vigilante for it. 
This also reminds me of the movie Braveheart where Wallace's secret wife was murdered in public for everyone to see. Imagine living under another's rule and having to share your wife to give her virginity to a tyrant? Wallace then revolts and the others revolt with him and kill the bastards. Usually a victim whose justice goes unanswered is a symptom of bigger problems. You may have vengeance in your heart for that one victim or a few victims, but look at the bigger picture of a failed system, and fucking revolt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Kill the tyrants!!!!!! Just don't be a fake Rittenhouse vigilante where a corrupt judge let him free. Should the victim's parents or siblings seek vigilante justice, since the system failed them? Then what. What happens is two sides always thinking they are right and more and more people get killed. 
It's hard to answer that question because everyone is more sympathetic to the child and not to a grown man, even if both needs that justice. And if you are on the side of the minority, like in that movie A Time To Kill, and you seek your own justice, think about what happens next in that oppressive system. The oppressors will want revenge for the white man and kill innocent blacks who had nothing to do with it. Then they are forced into a revolt. That's how things work. On and on and on. There are always oppressors and the oppressed. Something like that child's murder shouldn't go unanswered. And what is probably even more affective than taking matters into your own hands is to get the whole community involved. If they get gunned down, then war it is. Or riots. 
We have seen modern day systemic oppression at work, or a modern day genocide of blacks by the police. And do they seek their own vigilante justice? They did what angry people do, who feels helpless, is riot. And that got attention. Did it change anything? Nope. But it did get public opinion and awareness. We now know the police need serious reform. And if the oppression of blacks and browns goes unanswered. Next time it will be more than a riot. That's just how things work when people can no longer take it. They revolt. 
And that is completely different from being a bunch of nazi fascists who try to overthrow an election. They are lying about a stolen election. Much different from blacks getting murdered by police and seeking justice and equality. Being a vigilante goes both ways, even the bad people and oppressors falsely seek justice. More like they use violence to scare people into oppression. That is the tactic for authoritarians. They will always play the victim, always use brutal force, always get you before you get them mentality, always protecting the system of oppression, label you a terrorist if you stand up, arrest you if you speak out, brutalize and kill you for protesting, take away your rights, all so they can abuse you and do things like rape and kill children because they believe they have the privilege to do it. 
Best thing I can say, is seek support from the public. Demand justice. Protest. Riot. Then revolt. 

Sadly they never will stop. Mobile apps will continue to come out, utilizing the same scheme and methods of draining your wallet. Either it be by buying coins to buy an item in the shop, or paying to remove ads, or whatever else. 
It's gotten to the point where I don't bother with most free to play games, I just look for games that cost money and check those out instead. At least then I'm not seeing the endless ads per mission or annoying popups and long loadtimes, etc. 

It has gotten a good amount of looks, but most listen for a second while I fish for my phone and start laughing while it plays.

This is brilliant! LOL Could you imagine being outside and this went off. I would imagine it would get many funny looks and people would be concerned but I feel that would be the best part of it LOL

It's funny how people compare this game with Sekiro. On the one hand you have a golden treasure one of the best games of all time with the best combat ever created and an awesome art direction and music (Sekiro) and on the other hand (this game) you have a luckluster effort with dogshit level design, terrible art direction/graphics and bad bosses

It had so much hype, I don't get how they failed it. Shouldn't just done another delay and waited until the game was fully ready. 
Also another game that comes to mind for me as a major letdown would probably be WCW Mayhem on the PS1. I remember getting it for my birthday one year and I remember the copy I got wasn't working properly, so my dad had to run it back to the store to get a replacement. But, it didn't help much as the game was kind of crap. I forced myself to enjoy it, but I didn't. 
Thank god I didn't buy the sequel Backstage Assault, as I remember renting it and hating every minute of it. I know the game is titled Backstage Assault. But I was expecting to at least be able to go to the wrestling ring and fight, but nope, they were true to the name and if I remember correctly, they only had backstage areas, hence the name Backstage Assault. 

I agree with the internet connection - it's much better wired and it's not like my Wifi speeds are bad. It's just that the ethernet connection is far more amazing.

Momentarily, it can help to take your mind off things but I don't think it really helps long-term if you don't try to address the root of the problem.

My cat would say "What the fuck are you doing? Get off that fucking computer and pet me. Shit man!!! Every day I watch you space out on that thing and type a bunch of buttons and laugh out loud. Your are scaring me dude!!! You're fucking losing it. I didn't sign up for this shit!!!!!!!"
 
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I used to do that when I was younger but not too much. Nowadays though if I wanted to I wouldn't be able to manage to much due to my health issues, having a hernia and also suffering fibromyalgia. I do try to stay active though by walking a lot.
