For real, me and a friend went to a costume party as Sarah Palin and Hillary Clinton back in college. It was hilarious, we even acted the parts. I’ll admit I was a little nervous walking into a frat house dressed like that, but the cheers we got made it all worthwhile.

This is normal human behavior that the people he’s with want to criminalize.

I had a similar experience with one of the more recent NBA games.

Like, shooting the ball was a whole process. First you initiate a gathering action or decide what kind of plant or pick you’re going to make, there’s a button for whether you jump or not, what kind of jump (fade away, in place, diving towards) and then timing for shot accuracy. God help you if you’re going for a dunk.

Damn it all, what ever happened to one button for pass and the other for shoot!

I’m out here doing advanced Street Fighter combos just to throw a damn ball. It’s easy as doing a tatsumaki super canceled into a neutral aerial shakunetsu hadoken. And that’s just one thing, every damn mechanic in the game felt like this.

Amazing the time when arcades were soooo much better than home consoles.

Like, there was a time when a home console was pretty good at simulating the arcades, but that was about it.

I’m still using Windows 10 on my personal computer. Oh I’ll probably have to upgrade someday, some game or other program will come out with exclusivity of some kind and I’ll eventually install Windows 11. But for the most part, I don’t want to fuck with it, everything works and I really just don’t want the hassle.

Running Linux Mint on an old laptop, mostly because it’s too old to decently run Windows 10. Don’t use it for much, mostly troubleshooting things.

At work the laptops are Windows 10 and I don’t think there’s a push to update. Of course all the servers are Redhat Enterprise Linux, and that’s where the majority of my work takes place.
