  • Mine had slid off the footrest I had stupidly placed it on overnight and I didn’t notice that so I sat down and jerked my computer chair forward, one wheel right into the controller. It’s crazy how much it broke, one side cracked, including the PCB and both the bumber and trigger on that side got badly deformed.

    RIP friend, you were the best.

    English hard, apparently.

    I fucking hate this thing that’s becoming more and more common. Obvious bad grammar and spelling mistakes in memes like this, it’s become the rule rather than the exception in just the past year. And I’m certain it’s rarely not done on purpose, it’s the same with post and video titles both here, reddit, youtube etc. It gets clicks and comments and people fucking suck so they do it with no shame.

    Huh, it’s the other way around for me. Anyone feel the same? And my general view of how I look is much worse than what everyone else seems to see. If I go fully by my own view I’d say I look about average, I’m comfortable with how I look but I wouldn’t say it’s anything of note, but apparently people see something else. I get compliments from random people all the time, everything from my physical features to my style, and I never understood why. I have agoraphobia and general social anxiety so I’d love to be able to go outside and get groceries or whatever and just be left alone like most other people but about a third of the time when I leave my apartment some random person(s) give me compliments. I won’t deny that I appreciate it in some ways, more or less depending on the situation and how I feel but it often triggers my anxiety and most of the time I’d like it not to happen.

    I’m a 35yo dude BTW, not some good looking young woman (which people have guessed other times when I’ve mentioned it).







  • Rumble is an information tool, it’s not just “haha, Brrr when shoot”. It’s incredibly useful in many ways, and also very much helps immersion. The rumble we have now is much more precise and varied than it was back in the n64 generation, especially with controllers like the ps5 dualsense. I have a Gulikit KK3 MAX and its rumble is amazing, with every feeling from small precise taps to arm-shaking explosions. And when a game has well designed rumble implementation, which many have now, it’s just awesome. One genre of games that really shine is racing games, you feel everything, even different vibrations on different parts of the controller if for example your left tires are on dirt and right ones are on asphalt.

    A good example just from the top of my head was when I played Pacific Drive, your car can break in many ways and I always noticed that one of my tyres had a flat from the rumble before I noticed it any other way, and knew which side it was on just from the feeling.



  • This fall has been the first year in my life where I feel used to the changes in the diurnal cycle, I’m 34 and live in (and always lived in) Sweden. Every year and seasonal change until this fall has always been “damn, it gets light/dark so early/late now, crazy how you never get used to this”, but now it’s like my body has finally been prepared for it, which has and continues to be weird in its own way.

    How do you not understand that’s catwoman? I know the top voted comment is about this but I still feel like it hasn’t been pointed out enough. I have no real interest in any of this and know very little about comics, and even to me it’s painfully clear that it’s not “batgirl” (I don’t even know if that’s a thing that exists).

    OP, how did you fail this so badly?
