No disc on PC is totally different because the platform is more free. We have multiple store fronts, some are DRM free, some come with free compatability tools, we can install games free of a store, back data up to a hard drive and play that same game on a different PC all offline, we could burn our entire library to SD cards or CDs and produce our own physical media, we can use a million combinations of hardware and operating systems, etc.

Locking out discs also hurts game stores and gives consumers worse value for money since they can’t trade in games. Super shitty when there is only one digital storefront



Neocities is making a comeback, start your own blog!


SicMu Player for local files

SimpMusic for streaming

both should be on f-droid


TF2 is way up there for me. I’ve played on and off since launch and accumulated 2500 hours. I think lifetime I might have gotten value from the game because I sold off a bunch of items that appreciated.


My understanding is that 200 is pretty dire, would result in constant fatigue, struggle to build muscle, irritability, erectile dysfunction, low sex drive, etc.

Happy to be educated if I misunderstand that.


I feel bad for the dude near bottom left. 200 Test and 70 IQ, rough existence.


Matthew Broderick killed 2 people while drunk driving in 1987 and got away with it

Edit: he was not drunk, he swerved into oncoming traffic. He was in northern Ireland and his reason for doing so is unknown by his account, he can’t remember anything about it.


GTA 5 was the single highest earning piece of media of ALL TIME

So to say GTA6 is highly anticipated would be selling it short.



Maybe if a major component in my PC dies, but for now I’m happy to see how it goes.




Fightcade is good for some of that

I know some n64 emulators support net play as well

Not so sure about ps2


Maybe give the Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters a look


Privacy is a personal journey by nature. No use it getting worked up over how private anyone else is.



I mean if both of you are daily bathers and not sweating all day, there is no issue. If anything a tiny bit of smell can be nice, really let’s the pheromones do their work.


Guess it depends on how you view it. Stake advertises to minors, most of its games are crooked even for casino standards, they advertise through porn, they exploit workers as well, and they provide nothing of value back. Most of their operation is via legal loopholes and there is a reason countries are trying to chase them out. Gambling is purely a money sink with no benefits to the economy.

Can’t really defend Amazon for all the reasons you listed, they are both awful, so my choice would almost purely be based on the platform itself. Kick is a lot less respectable of a platform to me, Twitch has had a long time to develop and mature, so I would pick Twitch.


Stake is a pretty vile and predatory gambling corporation. They own the worlds biggest online casino. Amazon ain’t exactly great but they are a more legitimate business than a scammy crypto casino.

I’m not usually one to criticize art, but I’ve seen probably 7-8 comics by this artist so far and haven’t seen one yet with a punchline or message.


Good point, that belt is crucial to concealing your powerful enchanted lingerie.



Yea the caveat is you have to enjoy being around your parents and can live with their rules.

I agree with you, some of the most fun I’ve had in my life was living with a bunch of roommates in college. There was always something interesting going on and it made our rent comically cheap.


I don’t exist? Curious what makes my take “deranged”


The West has propagandized relying on parents because it’s good for business. Staying with your parents is one less house they can sell, one less car, one less bedroom furniture set, etc.

You are defeating capitalist greed and helping the planet by utilizing less redundant resources like you would living seperately.


The average human is a Chinese guy named Mohammed Wang


Appreciate you sharing that info with me. I’ll get checked.


Damn, that’s rough. How old are you (range is fine) if you don’t mind me asking? I’m in my mid-30s and thinking about trying to get my Doctor to get one covered for me.


Yea lately I’ve been playing a bunch of Quake and Doom mods/wads/paks. There are probably tens of thousands of hours worth of free content available for both of these games. Kinda makes it hard to justify buying a new game when I could go download some masterpiece Quake campaign for free.



It was playable since 2017 though

Hopefully this means we get a new single player quake game.


They consider Quake a “key franchise”?

Could have fooled me. Why aren’t we getting Quake games then?




It worked with some games! I remember passing around CS1.5 and UT CD keys at LAN parties.


And a huge number of art assets in general. These days in the AAA industry the artists work much faster than the designers and programmers, so by the time the designers and programmers have finished their part, the art team has had time to make 3-4 times as many assets as they really need.

NOC technician. I monitor the internet infrastructure for a school district, remotely troubleshoot networking equipment, dispatch field resources, set up maintenance projects, coordinate with vendors, that sorta thing.


Even Stadia had the courtesy to send everyone full lifetime refunds.


“seeing you hanging out with me” doesn’t feel very natural

Otherwise this is really great, the last panel alone is a great reaction imagine.
