I don’t really understand how Walgreens is still in business. I only go there when I need something that the grocery store pharmacy section doesn’t carry and I’m not willing to wait 1-2 days to have it shipped from Amazon. Every time I go, its a ghost town with more employees than customers.
Mine is off at the moment.
Skyrim, Fallout: New Vegas, and Mass Effect Legendary are my favorites that I come back to repeatedly. Of course, they were all probably perfectly playable on your old PC.
Hitman World of Assassination was good and not playable on your old PC. I have not replayed it yet, but it is definitely repayable with the option to approach every level in different ways.
I’ve gotten bored with the Assassins Creed games, but the newer ones are very pretty and they’re open world with lots of story and tons of things to do.
You mentioned Far Cry 3, there’s also 4, 5, 6 New Dawn, and Primal. I haven’t played 5, 6, or New Dawn, but 4 plays the same as 3 (just a different story) and I actually like Primal quite a bit.
The Just Cause series is really over the top mayhem, but I enjoyed them. Lots of open world destruction for a…just cause (or maybe just because).
The Saints Row games are ridiculous, childish fun. Very similar to GTA, but makes GTA look classy by comparison. I think Saints Row 4 and Gat Out of Hell are the best ones. The first 2 are quite dated at this point. There is a recent remaster of 3, I liked the original, but haven’t played the remaster yet. There’s a newer one that’s just called “Saints Row”, I’ve only played a little of it so far and its pretty bland.
That’s probably it. I get that many people enjoy overcoming difficult bosses by mastering the tactics, but I find it boring and repetitive. At this point in my life I enjoy games with an engaging story, cozy games, or open games where I can create my own story in my mind as I play it (like The Sims or Mount & Blade…such very similar games :D).
You’re going to have so many scratched rugs and doors…and dropped cans of paint around your house soon! Well, my cats haven’t dropped any cans of paint yet, but based on my experience so far in Stray, it seem inevitable. Enjoy the new additions to your household!
I just finished replaying Life is Strange (the original). Now I’m starting Stray for a first play-through.
I always thought I despised soulslike games because they don’t let you adjust the difficulty level. I tried this game because they recognized that was bullshit and gave you the ability to easily overpower difficult bosses. Now I know I despise soulslike games for some different reason that I have figured out yet. I did not like this game.
I had Brelyna in my last (current?) run and have enjoyed her quite a bit.
Well, he wasn’t shot, choked to death, or mangled in the back of a police van at the time of arrest, so that’s already a win for him.
I have clothes that I keep out of the dryer, but I’m willing to put pretty much anything in the washing machine (aside from dry clean only stuff). I will hand wash my workout clothes, mainly in the summer, when they are drenched in sweat and I don’t have enough dirty laundry to make it worth putting them in the laundry right away. I just put a little splash of laundry detergent in the sink with some cold water to wash them, then hang them to dry. But I do that to keep them from getting stinky, not to prolong the life of the clothes.
This requires more information. Am I reasonably likely to hit a total target comp over the course of a year, but with fluctuations throughout the year? I can live with that if the target fits my needs. Of course, I’m guessing that is not the intent here, this is can you live with no clue about your future income potential? That’s a hard no for me.
The bicycle, otherwise all that fast food is going to catch up with you quick.
I think they’ll go full terminal mode on the next iteration. You’ll download a 100MB launcher and then just do cloud gaming from there.
I had a similar thing today. My app (looks just like this one) told me it was currently 138 degrees out. I thought I might need to stay inside today.
The way I’ve seen it, it appears to primarily be used by the various British and former British colonies, including the US. For these groups, anyone from outside the colonies living in “our” territory is an immigrant (who is certainly a lower class!). However, if we choose to reside in another country, we are not immigrants, we are “expats”.
Not everyone uses this term, but those that do frequently congregate in English speaking enclaves and make no attempt to integrate into their new home. They often see the locals as a sort of servant class, particularly because they probably came with enough money or income to make them wealthy by local standards.
As you might imagine, people with this attitude are probably not very popular with locals.
If travel time and cost doesn’t matter, I would always pick Hawaii over Florida any time of year. If travel time matters, then I’d look at the Caribbean before Florida for anyone on the East coast. Florida would be my last choice if I needed to keep things cheaper.
Deus Ex. When I first played it I was amazed by the graphics and I specifically remember being impressed that your character was reflected in mirrors. I’ve been replaying it recently and the graphics are obviously very dated, but it also doesn’t run smoothly on modern hardware. My PC gets louder and louder as I play it and eventually the game starts to stutter and I have to restart it.
I thought the original was far better than the second and the Undead Nightmare was a surprisingly good extension of the game. The story was better, the characters were better. Obviously the graphics were worse, I don’t know if the new release updates those in a meaningful way or not.
I know RDR2 was wildly popular, but I thought it really dragged. I managed to “finish” the story and then…it just kept going, so I finally quit. I don’t know how much was left, but I mostly regret not having quit much earlier.
I would do a search for job listings that would be the jobs you would be applying for if you chose to leave your job or were laid off. Do the job descriptions list the certifications you are thinking about getting? If so, it might be worth pursuing, especially if you can get your current employer to pay for it.
For example, almost every project manager job lists PMP certification. If you are currently a PM and don’t have it, you might want it just in case you get laid off to improve your chances of getting a new job. Otherwise, you might be up against 10 other candidates with just as much experience, but 3 of them have a cert and you don’t even get a screening interview.
Oh, that sounds like a sweet deal. I should have been aspired to be a corporation instead of a normal person.
