Shitposter while I tend to two babies. Maybe when I have my life back, I’ll help us get a few more niche communities back?

  • You could get into Dragon Quest games, if you want old school JRPGs. Complexity might be a bit lacking given the era, but doing the old NES ones without a guide is excruciatingly difficult and you can lump on RetroAchevements to add more pain. RA generally adds additional challenges to any older game so you have to play a little min maxing to accomplish them.

    I mostly thought of it since RA is beta testing multi sets with DQ9 and getting every accolade might be one of the most insane things I could ever suggest.






  • Well, I’ll settle for basic computer literacy as I still run into college students without a working knowledge of file systems… buuuut one would argue it’s worth covering the basic building blocks of how all this works.

    I’ve heard similar arguments for teaching people the fundamentals of how data works too, as we have data harvested from us at alarming rates and knowledge is power.


  • Bizarrely it’s probably more eco friendly than not having the tradition since those tree farms probably wouldn’t exist otherwise. It’s not like the meat industry, it’s probably net positive on emissions.

    Though, it would be better if we just reduced urban sprawl and deforestation of natural forests, etc., but that’s how it goes I guess.





  • Ah, my frame of reference is more MMO, so discords and stuff tend to be at least 30% women if not more. MMO guys can sometimes be creeps but it’s never the whole channel, usually there’s already a woman in the group when you join.

    Although I’m maybe a little biased, the discord I run calls out bullshit real fast, and we’ve been at it for years, lol. Still, I’m sure there are some really cringe groups out there. That, and there is a type of harassment that’s mostly through direct messages. That trend isn’t too strong lately, I think, because of how many guys play female characters it’s a game of minesweeper most lonely guys aren’t willing to play.
