Think Mario Party but far less emphasis on minigames and far more emphasis on "when should I attack, when should I use this card, etc. etc."

#

Though I highly recommend using a low screen resolution for the game and play it windowed. If you need it larger, resize it up (the UI scale is not directly adjustable)

#

Meaning if you have one of those ultra-wide monitors and you set the game to that resolution, you'd need a magnifying glass just to see anything.

#

Also the tutorial on first launch can be seen again.

will play that game eventually if i get bored with my backlog games

This is a game made to be played in a casual setting with others.

If you get upset at games far too easily over losing to RNG, a player constantly attacking you, etc. etc., maybe not the best to play.

when companies like Nvidia are pushing DLSS5 so hard that they're lying about how good it is, lying about publishers endorsing them and telling their audience they're wrong for criticizing it, it reeks of desperation

Dying in games is funny & based

When you die in 100% Orange Juice, you get a few turns to roll a dice that is equal to or greater than the current recovery value (you got to roll above a certain value dependent on the character you play as to revive on your next turn... it also decreases each turn as well, but I've seen a computer player revive on one turn and then get instantly K.O.'d before their next turn even happened)

Teriyaki sauce is simple to make - dark brown sugar, honey, ginger, soy sauce for a basic one.
Great over rice, especially if you add broccoli.

Fried rice is simple.

Buttered rice is yummy.

Gravy is easy to make - make a roux with equal parts butter to flour, add broth of choice.

So what does the knife do

teal iron

I have walnut and cherry cake

#

Cutting is weird

#

On the macro scale, looks like something is actually being sliced

#

When whats actually happening is the knife is forcing electrostatic fields apart

What defines a cake, chill?

How to make a chocolate knife

I’m making a hyper realistic cake a knife and a cutting board. To make the knife out of chocolate, I tried making a silicone mold for the first time.

After the chocolate knife was ready, I used edible paints to paint on the reflections and the shines using different colors.

Skyrim: Special Edition and later games / remakes by Bethesda added a frame rate cap. This is [also] why Fallout 4's loading screen times are insanely long.

I also don't have an issue with loading screens

visual mirage
#

I got around it with two tweaks to Fallout 4.

#

One that uncaps the framerate ONLY during the loading screen, and another which fixes it yet again (because audio lines were ending prematurely)

#

Even Atom Bomb Baby on the radio was getting cut off before I added that second fix... I blame the update to the game (which I thought I fully reverted)... or Windows 11 for the reason as to why it did that.

#

Not just music, but also voice lines from NPCs were getting chopped off.

#

... I must be one of the few who does that one quest for Diamon City Radio's DJ, keeping him calm... but somehow I like his advertisement for Choice Chops pre-quest.

#

One reason why I do his quest is to be able to listen to the radio without the loud "WE'RE GONNA DIE!" line.

I guess not... the commercial itself starts at like 8 seconds in

#

The one without someone's custom intro that I found had poor quality.

#

I have literally seen this commercial when I was young.

#

However, I don't recall when this commercial first aired.

#

Here comes the fun part when I need to charge the main Bluetooth headset I use.
That fun part is using some other Bluetooth ear buds that are so easy to get stuck on making them think I'm holding down "volume up" or something on them.

#

Sarcasm out of the way, I have yet to figure out how to detect when it is the earbuds changing the volume / doing the "pause/play" command, etc. and abort it.

those were the days i would just buy crappy ps3 games because they had bluetooth earpieces in them cheaper than retail cost, and then just sell the game

#

Speaking of that, I have a PS4 controller and yet I never owned a PlayStation console.

#

I mainly use it with my laptop, though I also put its inputs through two separate Windows programs intentionally.

#

One to hide it from other things (such as Steam to prevent "double inputs") and the other to remap the inputs / disable rumble / etc.

While the Windows OS I'm using has native PS4 controller support, I'm just adding a neglectable bit of latency (for my tastes) just to convert it into a fake xinput / XB360 device... and / or keyboard + mouse inputs... or just allow it to charge without games detecting a controller at all (Left 4 Dead 2 would notice if one is plugged in, even if using keyboard + mouse inputs).

Big brain thinking. I used ps4 controller way back when I emulated a lot at my old job. And super Mario world romhacks Chillet_hee

PS4 controller is pretty neat to use on a computer

#

with steam input you can map the touchpad like a mouse trackpad

I wonder how many of these we’re gonna get. croajirokek

If it’s really because they can’t afford the inference that’ll be amazing.

#

they're gonna get fined out of business by the EPA for burning so much gas to power themselves because no electrical grid will take them

If open AI bites the dust tho, given the amounts of ram,gpus and storage reserved for the entire year
