Empirically, Final Fantasy 14. Also my only 1000 hour game since games services started logging playtimes in a more durable way. Only other games I can think that might have touched that time are Diablo II and UT99, but both of those playtimes are lost to the sands of time.

It basically exists for brands to advertise and avoids things like actual news. User counts are way overinflated. Heard multiple people say their algorithm is garbage.

Mastodon may or may not be good (I don’t use it), but the fact that it segments off users into different groups means it will never be a twitter replacement. The fact that twitter is essentially “public” and all sorts of people from different areas interact was basically the whole point of it.

Bluesky seems pretty nice so far and it has real momentum. Mastodon seems more along the lines of what Google+ turned into.

Sometimes we take the hot rocks and ship them to other planets too.

Banana bread is super easy to make. The only reason i don’t make it more often is because it’s basically cake in disguise.

Out of curiosity are any similar products actually good? My company uses Webex and frankly I’d rather use teams.

Hands would be a lot less evolutionarily useful if they couldn’t reach your mouth.

Coloradans be like “just look at the mountains smh”

Do they actually dam everything or just build a nest?

If I’m sore I probably take 3 ibuprofen every 4 hours.

I think they call them devops now.

Or just stray dogs apparently

Mounds/Almond Joy. Yuck. Always threw those out as a kid (well OK probably gave them to my mother).

There’s a whole family of fairies!

Kids and their audiovisual memes. In my day [we had to rely on text](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIFF_(Usenet\)).

Yes it was originally distributed as a stand alone flash animation.

Presumably because they are continually picking up new players from younger age groups while retaining many older players, but I don’t really have any interest in those games so I don’t know much about them. I’m not really seeing how this directly relates to my comment, either.

Or uh maybe old games are still good and it makes sense to provide an easy way for newer generations to play them? If a record label remasters a Beatles album do we get mad over that? Music doesn’t have an expiration date so why should games?

It does take a pretty long time to get a supernova if you’re starting from scratch.
