My order has switched from saying December 2-9 to November 17-24, so I guess I was right to think they might have been being overly conservative.

Its the octagon the N64 controller had that helped. Modern controllers have a round circle you roll the stick around for movement. I used the those corners in the octagon to ensure I could line up shots and stay steady on narrow ledges.

Bought Among Us hoping to play with folks but never gout any games together. I have no interest in playing with randoms. Would be nice to play with folks here.

Just logged in to redeem it. Sometimes the store logs me out and so I drag my feet on getting in.

Stubbs the Zombie in Rebel Without a Pulse

&

Paladins Epic Pack

And apparently I have 176 games in the Epic Store and not a penny spent there.

I've only spent time in like 14 of them and of that only about half for multiple hours or more. Its basically a gaming retirement plan as thats probably the only time I'll get to most of these.

It was rather complicated to follow with all the items and such. I was struggling to follow it all before I had to step away from the game.

Congrats to the mafia for winning! Apologies for the abrupt AWOL but things took a turn for the worst in my personal life and I kinda forgot about the game while trying to pick up the pieces. Finally have some bandwidth to plug in only to find the end was here.

Sounds like some clever moves were made. Hoping to have the ability to get more into things in the next game.

So I heard Apple really... Stepped it up a notch with their laptop design.

Um, excuse me. A publication of ill repute called and requested that you take this post down due to a copyright claim on their recent headline.

It took you this long to come up with the lamest fucking joke?

I did like that they made the things thicker and heavier in order to put more ports on them. Chasing thinness and lightness at the expense of usability was stupid.

That makes sense as a trade-off for the MacBook Air, where ultra portability is the selling point, but on something you're calling "Pro" it's the right call to go with more ports.

Agreed. The fact that the 2016 model had 4 usb-c ports only was a mistake.
