The West Wing deserves better than this tbh

I love mystery games, so--

Love: When mystery games actively draw attention to the idea that you need to draw your own conclusions about what you find in the game, and make your own truth, instead of just following a track

Hate: when the above is expressed as a formalized "Mind Palace" mechanic à la the more recent Sherlock Holmes games. That's just covering the track with a tarp instead of letting you build your own theories. Either let people accuse who they want with the evidence they have (once again I plug Paradise Killer) or acknowledge that there's only one acceptable answer

That's why I got Nebula. It's not everyone I watch on YouTube, but it's a lot of the best people, and they get a much, much larger amount of revenue from me specifically than they do from even YouTube Premium at a better price since you're not also paying for YouTube Music on top of it. I was a devoted Google Play Music All Access listener, but true to form Google forgot about it and then replaced it with a worse service that costs more money. Spotify and Nebula as separate subs is as close as I'm going to get to the old school GPMAA/YouTube Red bundle and I don't have to give a penny to Google for it

Hello all,

I've loved and used the everloving life out of my old Das Pro (MX Browns, standard keycaps, no media controls) for well over a decade now, and since my work keyboard situation has become untenable I'm extremely tempted to move the old keyboard into the office and get a new shiny for home. I think I'll have to stick with Browns despite wanting something clicker (I live in an apartment and feel like my typing noises late at night are plenty loud enough with the Browns). I got the Das at the very beginning of the mechanical keyboard renaissance, so I have no idea where the market is these days-- I'm sure I'd be perfectly happy with a new Das, maybe without the labels, but I wanted to throw it to the community: is there anyone who's directly competitive with Das for a similar-format keyboard these days? Maybe tenkeyless?

He never claimed to be an absolutist.

Here he is making that exact claim in 2022 before deleting it once it became inconvenient

When I stop plugging Paradise Killer it will be because I am dead and in the ground. Absolute masterpiece of theming and plot. It's a mystery game without the clunky logic puzzles-- just your patience and intuition. And my God, the music. I've been obsessed for over a year now.

Jerboa is crashing for me on start, which isn't a great sign. I just want Boost already!

Someone gilded one or two of my comments (shitposts), and I felt so grateful to them and so proud of myself that someone thought it was worth spending money to reward a dumb joke I'd made. That stuff makes an impression. But I couldn't tell you the last time I saw a gilded post because it literally doesn't mean anything now

As a fellow old.reddit user, you probably also remember when buying/being gifted reddit gold was a big deal. One stupid little gesture, very few actual perks (beyond an "exclusive" subreddit no one used), but the money went straight to reddit and it was so popular it was a staple of reddit's early culture. Being gilded was a massive honor.

Now it's just one of a handful of paid reaction trophies you can give, and it's not worth paying attention to at all. Reddit was so money hungry it cannibalized the process through which people gave money to reddit for basically free
