I've heard someone call it rotten sewer oil. It's honestly grown on me. I don't think it's as bad as everyone says, but it is very bitter and flavour wise there isn't much else going on

A lil sip of this will make almost anyone not want to talk to you again. I speak from experience

Same with Snoop Dogg. Who could have guessed a gangster rapper would love the government so much?

 

Unless I can buy the game and have none of my money go to Krafton, I ain't paying for it

The OG Xbox. I'm sure it's actually a fine console with great games on it, but my own personal experience with it was frustrating. I had already owned a GameCube and a PS2, both modified to play games from a SD card/hard drive and output an HDMI signal for modern tvs. I figured I'd might as well own the main 3 consoles from that generation and get the Xbox. I bought one that came with some cheap third party controllers and the first thing I did was replace the old capacitors on the circuit board. No problem there. Now there were 3 modifications I wanted to install, a mod chip with a new OS, replace the HDD with an SSD to install games on, and the HDMI converter. First up is the mod chip, and the install went fine. Except that after installing it with the new OS, the controller doesn't work. From here, I'd tinker with it for a day or two and then get pissed and shelf it for a couple of weeks before going back to it. I even bought extra controllers which didn't work, and a fucking oscilloscope to trace the controller signals through the motherboard to see if I accidentally de-soldered something installing the mod chip. Turns out the problem was the guy who made the OS didn't put any tolerances in for the controller signals, so the third party controllers I had just didn't work. Got some original Xbox controllers, and everything was fine and fucking dandy. The SSD install actually went in no problem. The HDMI converter was a pain in the ass because I had to solder in this ribbon cable with tiny contacts, but I got it in. And it just didn't work. Apparently the two mods, mod chip and HDMI converter, were supposed to work together but sometimes they just didn't since they are made by two different people. Only remedy is get another mod chip or converter and maybe those work. But I got lucky and one guy made a dual mod chip and converter. So I got that. Installed it. It fucking worked. I spent some time downloading and installing a bunch of games to the SSD. When I was happy with my newly acquired library of Xbox games, I unplugged it from the setup on my work bench and moved it to my living room, and when I turned it on the TV showed no signal. Fuck. When I cracked it back open, the mod chip had an LCD display with a fault code that should mean a bad solder joint or firmware needs to be reinstalled. I did both, but no luck. Checked the forums and found good news and bad news. The good news was that at least a dozen of other people are having the same problem, so there should be a fix, right? Well... Bad news was that the creator was responding to everyone with a, "I've never had that problem, you must have done something wrong. Buy a new kit and install it correctly this time." ... This bitch... I put that Xbox right in my closet and haven't touch it since 2023. I spent 2 and a half years and a lot more money than I want to admit on that console and I'm just fucking done. I might go back and get it working some day, but I still want to vomit whenever I glance at the damn thing

I have the core rules book, investigator manual, and keeper manual for the Call of Cthulhu TTRPG, does that count?

It really depends on the event and how much the organizers want to play whack-a-mole with illegal broadcasts. The only knowledge I have with pirating a live broadcast would be something like a big UFC fight. If you get really thick in the weeds where you are finding Twitch streamers that have 5 viewers and claim to be playing a UFC video game, some of them are broadcasting a real fight and are pretending to play with a controller

I recently just played Demon Tides and the soundtrack was made by 2 Mello. Good game and good music

I'm pretty sure that change was made for Broken Steel. They really wanted to end the game with the main quest, so you needed a fucking dlc to survive and have a post-game

Edit: I just checked, and it is a change from Broken Steel that lets you tell Fawkes, Charon, or the Mister Gutsy companion to go in and push the buttons
