Could be it honestly. :)
Could be it honestly. :)
I live deep in the Appalachian mountains and I haven’t met a single person interested in the things that I am since I was a kid.
I’m so bad and hate socializing so much that I recently got the Mortal Kombat II deluxe arcade cabinet, the same dude kept joining my match every single time I played so I just stopped going online haha.
He contacted me and we talked once, and that was that.
I really like him too, I just can’t handle it. Even that tiny little bit of it.
I don’t know why I’m like that. I’m not bad at talking to people. I’ve been told I’m damn good at it. I’ve been told I’m charismatic and all that. There’s just something broken in me.
Probably comes from the abuse I suffered as a kid if I’m being honest. It was rough, and it trained me I guess.
But then again, my whole family is like me. I don’t even know 90% of them, but I can tell you that 90% of them do not have Facebook. The ones that do, they don’t ever post, they don’t ever like, nothing. It’s like it’s just who we are or something.
I have brothers who grew up in different households. Two of them never experienced any abuse as children, they were spoiled. They are just like me. They talk to no one.
I’ve done the whole therapy thing, I just do not have it in me to have friends.
I haven’t had a desire to make a friend since I was a kid.
I do get lonely. I’ll have a thought that I’d like to share and I know I drive my wife crazy.
I wouldn’t even care if I could find a way to make some money. Right now I’m a stay at home dad. That’s what my wife wanted me to do. I was making money on the stock market, not taking big risks, just making above minimum wage. Then the election happened and now that’s over.
Thank you for caring.
Heeeey it’s me. Totally socially crippled.
I don’t even know how to maintain relationships, don’t have an interest in trying. There’s something wrong with me.
My only friend on this planet is my uncle.
I pulled one out of an old laptop and bought an adapter for that purpose. :p Adapter was like 5 bucks.
Makes perfect sense, but what a bummer.
Damn. I haven’t built a new computer in 10 years.
Are we seriously here now? DAAAAAAMN
I got old.
I have over 500 hours in Cuphead across platforms.
I need Jesus.
My daughter uses game pass on Linux. I think she streams it though.
This right here. Listen up.
My boss needed my work. He got me when I was 16 years old and told me that in 10 years he intended to retire and if I came and worked for him he’d lease one of the businesses to me until he died and I’d take over.
At the 11 year mark I was losing hope, but I kept going because it really did seem like a possibility.
I loved my job, but I got paid so much less than everyone else who did what I did. I thought it was a decent trade off because I really did love it so much.
My store was sold in August after 24-26 years there. I have been unemployed and staying at home with my kids. My skills are out of date, my resume a single paragraph.
Don’t. Be. Loyal.
Sell your skills to the highest bidder and develop them as you go. I loved everyone I worked with, but I left when the place was sold. I left for the reason I mentioned above. I took care of it like it was my own personal space because it was supposed to be. Your friends will not hate you for improving your life or they aren’t your friends.
I made the people who worked under me do no extra, because in my mind they didn’t stand to benefit from it like I did. Now they’re dealing with all of it and they still talk to me.
Well, I guess I won’t need one then. Hardware is a bit older but if I can get the same performance I’ll avoid the windows partition.
Oh yeah, people who need more power definitely want something else. It’s all I need really. I’m about to inherit my daughter’s old gaming laptop though so I’m not sure what I’ll do then. Definitely Linux with a small partition for windows to play some VR games. I’d say I’ll still use the Steam deck for most things though because it’s so portable.
I’ve been docking mine and using it as my primary pc. The only issue I’ve had is that I was able to play CSGO perfectly, and CS2 don’t do so good.
I skipped the new Zelda for this kind of shit.
I have owned every title since the late 80s, purchased limited edition games when possible, limited consoles, etc.
I’m done.
It bums me out. This wasn’t hurting Nintendo. It isn’t like someone will load up Garry’s Mod and decide, “well, gee wiz, I guess I don’t ever have to buy a Nintendo title again!” It wasn’t hurting them at all.
This move right here has cemented it for me. I am done with Nintendo. I have purchased every console they’ve ever made in my lifetime, stating when my parents got me the NES. I won’t be buying any more. I’ll find something else for my children to grow up with and later be nostalgic about.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen discord get a positive mention on this sub. I’ve never used it so I don’t really have a horse in this race.
I don’t know what people use it for, but I’ve seen all the negative memes about open source software devs using it and that causing people to skip on the software though. Never seen it get any praise around here.
I just found the one I have and it has an ARM processor. :(
I have one. It’s one of the higher end deals from a couple years ago (for a chrome book). I have been excited to work on it every time I’ve seen something like this posted.
I CAN’T FIND IT! Gaaaaah.
I seen the damn thing a thousand times. I wasn’t looking for it. Now? Gone. Nowhere.
Does this shit happen to anyone else?
Should I not be playing the native Linux version? Or am I just an idiot who doesn’t understand how the game works?
I hated Windows ME but I loved that time. I’d love to go back and chill for a couple days.
Funny thing though, I hated that time while I was living through it haha.
Yeah, and there are decent ways to do that, which many successful companies and individuals manage to pull off every day.
I have no horse in this race because I don’t use any of this stuff, but I despise the direction everything is going.
Human parasites are never happy with being well fed it seems. They aren’t happy unless they gorge until they get fat and explode, or they’re so greedy they end up killing their host.
