I wish they would give us a user setting to completely hide shorts from ever showing. I have never watched a short and I will never watch a short. It’s just not the type of content for me. If I wanted TikTok style videos, I would download TikTok. It’s crazy how much stuff YouTube tries to cram down your throat even as a premium subscriber.
Edit: also just a great example of companies jumping on a bandwagon to make a quick buck. YouTube is a well established video hosting and streaming service, they didn’t need to spend how every many millions of dollars adding shorts (not that they would have bothered spending that money on the user/creator experiences anyways)
I agree with you so much. The only time I ever click on shorts are accidents. I hate them. I don’t use instagram, tiktok, anything like that. I don’t want to see shorts. They are horribly crammed and well, way too short. Leave me alone and stop autoplaying on my tv.
I have been replaying Divinity 2. I had forgotten how good this game plays and looks. AND I was watching a "Let's Play" of DOS2 and noticed I missed some areas and stuff I didn't know I could do. So much dept and different ways to do things.
I was replaying DOS2 on my Linux gaming PC with an XBox controller because I think the controller will play similar on Baldur's Gate 3.
Fun days ahead soon exploring the world of Faerun and Baldur's Gate.
My friends (a couple) eat as healthily and varied as possible, they are not vegetarian but pretty close to it… The guy shits at least once a day the gal shits twice a week… They eat the same food! 🤷
shitting twice a week sounds like elevated colon cancer risk to me. idk how someone who eats adequate fiber be shittin that infrequently. she gotta switch to that whole grain
Oh no, i take phone breaks between my shits. Usually when i’m shitting i’m figuring out solutions to the worlds problems, disproving well established theorems and stuff. However when i’m done shitting i keep forgetting the solutions so here we are.
I personally love being “overly competitive” in games. I want a mode of the game to do that in. That’s why I play ranked mode in league, where ARAM and Normal games are for the forfun players.
I like the Firaxis XCOM games because I can actually win.
However, the fact I do win also disappoints me. The originals have an unbeatable sense of hopelessness that if I do ever win, it will feel so much better. Kind of the same with Nethack. I’ve played easier roguelikes and won; but I have never beaten Nethack without cheating. If I ever manage to beat that legit, I’d absolutely lose my mind with feel good brain juice.
That’s impressive. I still haven’t been able to beat legendary ironman on XCOM 2.
I’d like to get into the old ones, but the UI is really dated and I’m having trouble figuring out what I need to do. Maybe I need to watch a short video or something.
Thanks! Saving this for when I get an opportunity. I know the old games are beloved and have some hardcore fans, so I really want to give them a fair shot.
Oh, tedium doesn’t bother me! Sometimes in XCOM 2 I spend so much time managing my base that I get mildly annoyed when I have to stop to go on a mission.
I think I just need to grasp what I’m supposed to be doing in the original.
That’s part of the game. Research in UFO Defense doesn’t always glean equipment, sometimes you get clues instead.
So if you play the game as intended, you don’t understand why the aliens are invading or where they come from until you piece it together throughout the course of the campaign.
But in 2023, you might just want to wiki all that stuff and no one would blame you!
