Thanks for the link. Seems like the place could be easier to find :-\

Hrrrgghhh routers! The last two I've dealt with were a Netgear and an ASUS and... well, at least the ASUS got out of my way relatively quickly? SSH'd in and crammed it full of OpenWRT 😅Did the same to the Netgear but that one fought so hard to force me into using some admin-through-their-website kind of horsecrap that I hate. All' the docs I wanted/needed were lies, BS, broken links, contradictory... it was a proper mess. I don't want a singing, dancing bird-robot tweeting all night (to some corp's servers), just gimme a damn router that's mine!

... I may be a little bit old-headed about some tech things <.< I guess things are moving on to "your own hardware as a service" now :-\

After more than thirty hours and hours of discussions with a friend who knows Pathfinder and stuff, I've finally beaten the first boss of Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous!

My character finally created, I got through the intro cutscene thingle, threw a dart, saved, and am in bed waiting to become asleep 🤣

(The joke is that the character creation is so interesting, involved, and/or difficult that it counts as a boss fight just choosing a character class to start with 😅 Also yes it did actually according to Steam take me nearly forty hours to defeat said boss 😅)

option to choose pronouns fills them with blind, seething rage

Yeah I was there when BATTLETECH (still dunno why its name has to be so LOUD :P ) launched. Every hatefool was raging about it, apropos of anything or nothing. Try to talk about any part of it and it's "OH YOU MEAN FUCKING PRONOUNWARRIOR?!?!" and a bunch of incoherent senseless bile. There's a sizeable group of people who deeply love being offended, and it's not us (queerfolk/LGBTQIA+/QUILTBAG/GSM/whatever). Like, I'm neck-deep in queer over here and every time I play a game with a pronoun selector at the beginning I promptly forget about it but oohhhh nooo, not these bellends. They somehow think a button at the beginning of the game that matters like three times ever has entirely DESTROYED videogames with LIES and FALLACIES 🙄

They'd be a joke and an insignificant oddity if they didn't deliberately make messes of everything else (say, going to MWLL/other games, ranting about "pronounwarrior," pretty sure some critters got teamkilled over it...) for no good reason.

being a man, woman, or black person isn't political

Being a woman isn't political... until I do it? Kinda seems like there's no actually valid (sound? I forget the terminology) argument for how our existence is a problem, nor for how supporting or acknowledging our existence is a problem.

I don't actually quite understand what you're on about but it kinda seems like you're arguing that allowing people to play characters that don't match your preferences exactly is some kind of forced political thing and that's kinda horsecrap, y'know?

Anyway I'm gonna go exist at that bigot up there now. Byeee ö/

Hi, woke garbage here. Very trans. Enby too. Just sitting here existing at you. Existing so hard, it probably hurts you just knowing about it. I hope it does, 'cause you're a prick and you deserve it ^.^

RiikkaTheIcePrincess, 9 miesięcy temu

Wow, I'm the only person that bellend didn't reply to. I feel special 🤣 Everycritter else gets a fresh pile of horsecrap, I don't even get a downvote. Works fine for me, I guess.

RiikkaTheIcePrincess, 9 miesięcy temu

Well, it's... pronounceable? Technically?

Okay I don't actually like it and don't know anycritter who does but it's there soooo putting it there seemed like a good idea at the time? 🤷

RiikkaTheIcePrincess, 9 miesięcy temu

Hah! Good luck with that :3

(Same but mine doesn't have the mohawk and doesn't specifically hunt KGCs :P ^.^ )

Yeah, that's the one. There was so much outrage because it had the word "pronoun" in it at all 🤣It's just a little thing on the side during character creation and its effect is absolutely trivial. Actually I think the other MechWarriors 'have pronouns' too if you deliberately open the character editor for them. It's really the bare minimum, like I'm trying to come up with something sarcastic but those people were freaking out over nnnnooothing like the one word in one game is gonna ruin videogames for them forever, or some crap.

Which, like... if we could somehow trans so hard they'd go away don't they think we'd do it instead of just getting yelled at?

🥠Here you go! :P Look, you're two off, be glad you got anything 😅

Wait, mine's 19 and I didn't even get that D: WE DEMAND SNACKS! ✊

[Very sarcasm] It's nice that copyright just means a copyright holder gets to do literally anything they want as long as a relevant work is involved. Wouldn't want anyone to get away with any kind of local modification, tinkering, tweaking an old piece of software to work in a modern environment, some forms of modding... All obviously reprehensible violations of a wank gesture, eyeroll Copyright Holder's right to control distribution of their work!

IP law is so fucking vile, and yet proves it can continually get even worse :|

Edit to preempt, just in case: Also, no I don't need another bullshit lecture on how "IP law isn't a real thing, it refers to separate segments of law blah-blah-blah" but somehow can't be used as a term because some wankstain feels like being condescending.

Does he? By now his brain may be addled enough for him to believe that. The guy's been Todd Howard for decades now and that's really got to wear on a person's mind.

Buddy, if you didn’t hit on everyone all the time then maybe you had more friends.

Haynow, some critters respond well to that!

Ugh, I hate bad PC writing. It's bad enough when it's "I agree 100%," "I agree 100% and wanna s your d," and "You're the stupidest, ugliest, evilest piece of absolute crap I have ever seen in my life and I'd kill you myself if it wouldn't get your blood in the carpet" but then some games just insist on somehow making it non-obvious which is which >:|

Okay I just spent a while watching some of their videos <.<; Thanks(?) for sharing... I think... 🤔

Jak from Jak and Daxter? Oh, no, boring milquetoast Jak from the soooper with-it-and-hip new wannabe-hit videogame, Immortals of Aveum™

Actually I don't remember whether that other Jak was any good either. Haven't played that since it was new 😅

Right? "Vast wealth built on various forms of harm is good actually because sometimes rich people fund neat things that I like!" Yeah sure, tell that to somebody who just lost their house to one of the many climate-related disasters lately.

I'm actually disgusted that "But look, a shiny! The rich are good actually! Some stupid 'environment' isn't shiny cool like a videogame!" has over fifty upvotes to my one downvote. I can't even scrape together enough sarcasm at the moment to bite at them with. Just... gross. Depressing. Ugh.

Thank you for mentioning this. I try/want to but it's so tiring dealing with the crap people throw at me just because they can't stand to ever think about the crap they spew.

Here's a cupcake to help make up for you getting jumped on instead :3 🫴🧁
