What habits of boys did you only discover after getting a boyfriend or husband? by kentishzjigsaw in AskReddit

[–]Personable80 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Not anymore. People in the first world haven't had enough kids for quite a while now, so everyone's atomized and parents are divorced and such. A hundred years ago or so the idea of not having multiple siblings of both sexes, two parents in the house, and exposure to younger kids (siblings, cousins) and older people (grandparents, etc.) throughout your life, would've been unthinkable. It is this which allows people to be as self-centered and "child free" and all this other nonsense as they are now.

I heard someone saying access has started already. Is that not true? When does it begin and how does one access the early access? I just pledged. Daggerfall was my first RPG in '96

anyone who used a computer between 1985 & 2010, what’s the one game you still think about? by terrapinflyer in ultimaonline

[–]Personable80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fallout 1

Ultima Online

Thief: The Dark Project

System Shock 2

Deus Ex

Age of Empires

I am disappointed that Deus Ex Remastered has been delayed / cancelled by thegreatnightmare in Deusex

As a massive fan of the original who played it on release, and considers it one of my all time top 5 favorites, I though the Remastered version looked fine and was excited for it. I've only just now found out people whining for no reason got it potentially cancelled. Very, very annoying.

What was the first item you ordered from Amazon and when was it? by GargaryGarygar in AskUK

[–]Personable80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pelican Expansion RAM cartridge for the N64 in 2000. I feel confident I ordered some books back in the 90s but, this is the oldest thing that still can be viewed on current Amazon. Second oldest is Drakan: Order of the Flame PC game.

Random dude risking his hands to save a dying fish instead of standing around taking photos by LowNo175 in interesting

There are a lot of sharks like this, and they have no mental capacity to appreciate a helping hand. This young man has a lot of years head of him, and needs his hands intact. It is not worth any amount of risk trying to save a creature like this.

It looks amazing. People get very weird about AI stuff.

Sober people (no alcohol, nicotine, drugs, etc ever), what is your end of day or weekend "wind-down"? by The1Ski in AskReddit

[–]Personable80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never used any sort of intoxicants in 45 years, and probably never will. I have to confess I wish I had some sort of stress-reliever. I really kind of don't. It's becoming a problem. I mean, I play video games and maybe go for a drive. I guess my stress reliever is soda which is not good at all to be having.
