  • I don’t think we will see another Favorite Worst Nightmare from any band again. It’s my favorite album by them, but The Car has honestly been a blast to listen to. I’ve seen a lot of people dislike their direction, but I feel like the band is enjoying the music and it just makes it better.

    I think the weakest album (which still has good songs) is Pile-driver Waltz.





  • So, there are a couple of things that have happened recently. I have an old laptop that I’ve messed around with different distros of Linux on. I installed Arch on it and am trying to do some different things. It’s not a good laptop, so the VM set up I’m really interested in won’t happen until I get a few more drives for my main PC and set up a dual boot abd some other things. I am really interested in this set up because it just sounds neat.

    Are there some things I should try to do to help me get better at working with this OS? I’m currently seeking up a server with a reverse proxy using nginx and its… Going. The server works I think, but the proxy doesnt yet.


  • With some of the news going around about the new windows versions and what-not, this sounds really interesting. I have a couple questions if you could answer them, that would be awesome!

    How does a new release of Windows affect the compatibility of this set up? I know programs with for a while on older releases, but after a time, that version will be phased out. That might be more about the VM than your setup, but I don’t have a lot of experience with those either lol.

    Does this introduce some system lag for input in any way? If I ever do get the confidence to abandon my system to go to Linux, it would suck if this really cool sounding method added response time to inputs.




  • Honestly, having a basic recipe that is solid is better than having something that someone testing and experimented with for years to find what “they” like the best. I have a recipe for red beans and rice that I have messed with for literally 5 years or more at this point. When I give people the recipe or it, I give them the basic recipe and THEN a list of things that I have done to it and my thoughts on those changes. I will take a look and try it! I have some potatoes in the fridge right now that I can make into some fresh fries already.

    Thank you!!


  • To be fair, I fully love that era of graphics. All the high resolution, hyper-realistic stuff is neat, but it seems like that is a facade added to a wooden shack with a leaking roof half the time. I would much rather something look a bit worse, but have so much more to offer in other areas.

    I knew about the demake, but haven’t tried it myself. I was hoping that it would have more done by now since I heart about it a while back. I might still give it a go though.

    Side note: I am so sad the the remakes of PS1 games don’t have the option to play with the original graphics. Halo remaster had the option and it was great. Spyro remaster changed things about the games and then made the game feel almost plasticy.




  • My friend got me to play DS3 before going to the others as it is just the easiest and most polished one. I think that if you are going to try going into the soulsbourne genre, Elden Ring might be a good choice as well since if you get stuck, you can just leave and go in a completely different direction to see if that feels easier.

    DS1 is a whole lot of fun. The clunkiness from it for me is just in the four directional dodge rolls. The QoL upgrade for being able to move while drinking the SunnyD in 3 was something that was greatly appreciated.
