I’m not sure that this is a “game” idea so much, but I’ve had this idea I haven’t been able to wrap my head around the implementation of.
Think a digital audio workstation such as Ableton Live or Logic, but gamified. Complete various musical objectives to pass levels, have a creative mode for just making music and maybe even a multiplayer mode for collaborative or competitive music making.
My SO just had something similar pop up yesterday. She was running into weird errors on her Chromebook, so I had her change her user agent to Chrome on Windows. Everything magically worked. Hmm…
I’m lucky in that my employer went the opposite direction. Downsizing our local office and just letting us all be 100% remote. We’re a geographically distributed group so it doesn’t make sense to enforce office requirements.
Wait. I can automate my meetings too? I dig it.
Is it just me or do crabs always look so dainty when they eat?
I think the biggest place it has genuine benefit would be for something like deeds to homes, titles for cars and stuff like that. A permanent, auditable and public system for tracking the transfer and ownership of things.
Unfortunately it comes with its own caveats, such as “what if I lose the wallet containing the deed to my home, and I want to sell it?”
I never really understood the whole thing about picture based NFTs though.
As someone who is getting ready to work at 9pm on a Sunday night…what’s this clock you speak of?
I would like to subscribe to Skeletor, please!
I’m not as familiar with Itch but it works the same as GOG in that you can download the installer and keep it, no special activations or DRM required. Right? Because I definitely love that aspect of GOG. I just wish it had a larger library.
This reminds me of a joke I read forever ago that is stuck in my brain.
Did you hear about the cows grazing in the marijuana patch?
The stakes have never been higher.
It’s the thing that lets the PC load. Obviously.
I really wish there was an official crossover of those series.
To quote Hermes Conrad:
Is there any meat they can’t jerk around here?
Obviously this isn’t digital piracy, it’s identity theft. Hence the reason Hollywood is perfectly fine with it. 😛
I mean, sure. A lot of people took out more than they should have. A lot of people who barely had left home to pursue a higher education on the promises of previous generations who nonstop said “you must go to college by any means necessary if you wish to have a successful career.”
Well, they did as they were told, and instead of the promising career and success prospects, they’re struggling to make ends meet because oh hey good luck finding a career if they didn’t go with one of the “good” degrees and now they’re just as well off as if they didn’t go at all, and now they’re having to deal with student loans.
Hmm…no wonder why they were counting on that relief.
I’m one of the lucky ones. I went to college, didn’t even finish and came out with a fantastic career. Not everyone was so lucky. But we were all told the same thing. Some people got lucky, like me. Some people were able to go on mommy and daddy’s dollar. Some others still had to find a way to cover the cost, attendee the classes, got the degree and instead of the supposed good life they were promised, they’re getting fucked over instead.
If you buy a car on a loan and it breaks down on your first day to a new job a few days after buying it, shouldn’t you be made whole? Because that’s effectively the same situation.
Well when the villagers inevitably forced to return to the island, I imagine the next rock to go up will effectively crush the shell. Just like crushing her legacy.
THAT’S IT, THANK YOU! That was driving me nuts.
I know I’ve seen this one before, but I can’t remember how it all started.
I am just now starting through Fallout 4. I’ve had it in my library for a while but never got around to it.
