Yo that’s a good score. It’s crazy what shows up at thrift stores.

The real draw here in Philly is when all the University of Penn kids finish up their semester and move back to whichever Chinese province they came from for the summer.

Those kids are all so wealthy that they buy the nicest stuff when they move in, and rather than haul anything back to their hometown or pay for storage, they just drop everything outside like a house collapsing in Ultima Online, lol.

I found a brand new computer once, still in the original box with styrofoam and everything! I put Linux on it and ran that shit for 10 years as my media server.

I like it. I think if I had been a first time player (far from it — I played it at release), this would be a worthy way to experience the game. That said, playing it again just feels deeply discordant for me. It’s drop-dead gorgeous with the visuals, but the sound effects, NPC models, and so much more just remind me of the original jank, and it snaps me back and forth, lol. Going back to KCD2, cus it’s new to me.

i find it’s a lot healthier to think of generative AI as a search engine for text.

I don’t understand how anyone can stand idly by. All I feel is that they’re coming for me next.

I’m okay. My Reddit account got permanently banned for suggesting that we turn willingly commenting “[ Removed by Reddit]” into a meme. Giving Lemmy another fair shake.
