@gamingonlinux Yep, play how you want, as long as you don't set it to easy, then complain that the game is too easy. ;)
Went back to the Ouray hot springs for the first time in probably 35 years... Was nice. I'll have to go there again sometime. Though once the sun set, I was toasty, but with frost in my hair and beard.
@anime @hfaust I think the article I read said it was $7500 in USD, which means their exchange rate has tumbled quite a lot. Used to be the rule of thumb was 100 yen was $1, but that's quite a bit out of date now. I wonder just how much of the farm story/slow life/etc genre has been secretly helped by the government that wanted to push this sort of policy to reverse population decline. It's pretty late though, it would have been better to get people having kids back in the 80's.
@Cheeseness @AlexLW I really enjoyed how the first episode felt like a straight Sam and Max game from the prior season, then each game after that found its own theme and ran with it to its logical conclusion. I actually played the first two episodes of Season 3 first, then went back to play the first two seasons because I was starting to notice references I didn't get.
@Cheeseness @AlexLW The first two seasons are weaker than the 3rd, but the 3rd makes it all worth playing through to see the ending. Aside from Tales from the Borderlands, it's my favorite thing that telltale made.
Just ran into another at least mildly interesting manga in my trawls through the new updates section. "Karei ni Rien Shitemisemasu Wa!" wherein the villainess is entirely 100% honest and open with the other two characters and trying to get them into a position to be together, but they misinterpret her advice as bullying and threats.
@anime (It was actually the light novel for a Manga series you told me about, but it happens so late in the story that it will probably be years before the reveal lands in the manga.)
@anime That they tossed Einstein in reminded me of the end of another light novel series I read, where they ended up trying to annihilate anyone reincarnating into their world because they kept getting people who were trying to take over everything, like Napoleon, Joan of Arc, Hitler, etc. I'm hoping that we get more of the other characters and not Einstein, but I want to read a bit more of it either way.
Ran across another interesting Manga, The Holy Grail of Eris. I think I'll pick up the few volumes that have been released here in the US.
@TechConnectify I've never had a gas stove myself, but as far as boiling over or instantly shutting the heat off, I've always just removed the pot from the hot electric burner when that was necessary. And the preheat time, I just set an alarm on my watch for 10 minutes then do something else, and it's usually boiling by the time the alarm hits. I use a lot of other electric appliances though, Microwave, Air frier/convection oven, rice cooker, instantpot...
Ohh, new random Isekai. "Wise Man's Reincarnation: Five Kingdoms" Only one translated so far though, 2 hours ago.
@rysiek I use Newsblur but I know that's not for everyone. When I don't use newsblur, I dabble with rssowl.
re: Birdsite
@TechConnectify I personally think it was a bad idea for them to restrict free speech in either direction, but it's also a private company so they can *legally* do what they want. I don't find those values in conflict at all, one is what they should do as a person providing a platform, the other is what they're legally allowed to do. Musk is just as bad as the prior version of twitter, and just as legal.
@gamingonlinux Unfortunately, neither of the games I'm playing right now have creators on fediverse, but Disgaea 6 and Pic-a-Pix Pieces 2 are my active games. It would be nice if NISa and Lightwoodgames were on fediverse though.
Enjoying Sora ni Mairu. I've really been in the mood for more SciFi series so this one has been fun.
@anime @DaveyDelimbo @Moon @animeirl I've never been to a hot springs in Ridgway, but it would make sense for one to be around there because of its proximity to other hot springs. Ouray and Glenwood Springs also have good potential for someone to make an Onsen.
