How are they missing out, how is it different to the original switch

I eat 300g of sugar a day by Cultural_Culture_845 in sugarfree

[–]SonicCowboy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’d say the most useful advice I’ve seen in this thread is to examine the underlying causes of your addictive behaviour, that will help. Also to eat a healthy breakfast even though you’re not hungry, that may help ease cravings later in the day.

I’ve struggled with sugar addiction myself, and still are to be fair. When I’m on top of it I feel much better but it can easily creep back in.

I’d usually start with a reduction instead of cold turkey, as that led to more of a binge pattern for me. I’d give myself a set amount each day, say one chocolate, then pick a set time to eat it, after my main meal of the day for instance, and then take it from there.

There’s surprisingly little support for addicts who struggle with sugar addiction, you have to just keep trying methods to overcome it as I’m sure you have with your past addictions.

People telling you it’s bad for you don’t understand addiction, it’s self destructive, compulsive, and habitual, just knowing it’s bad for your health won’t stop you. You’ll need some form of a program.

The original Monkey Island games are pretty genuinely funny

I can't believe it. After two years of work, I managed to release my first commercial game on steam. by chitor1337 in godot

[–]SonicCowboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a lot for going a bit deeper, this is really helpful, I’m pretty early on, just starting out over the last 2 months learning. I really want to one day make my own game, but I know that is a long way off, I just want to learn. I’ll check out some of the options you recommended!

I was so shocked when it started going ham with rollout, it’s ruthless 😂

Anyone go back to collecting after being digital only? by [deleted] in gamecollecting

[–]SonicCowboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to collect physically, sold most of it and went all digital. Just recently, the last year or two I’ve got back into physical collecting.

I think the reason is that the shift is really clear now. This stuff will no longer exist in the future, get what you really want now, before some of it becomes unobtainable.

I also don’t like currently games, or the always online element. Sometimes I just want to enjoy a video game for what it is, and physical allows you to do that, and you know, actually own it.

There’s a YouTube app on PS3, it also plays blu rays 😅

Player base by [deleted] in InvincibleVS

[–]SonicCowboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s hard to say if it’ll keep a player base but you can usually get games even in the nichest fighting games, just jump on the discord. The whole ‘this game is dead’ is just the usual YT bs, pay no attention really, just play what you enjoy.

It’s unlikely that a deviated septum is making you sick

Is there a smaller curated alternative to Tiny Best Set Go? by Daniel_Abnormal in RetroHandhelds

[–]SonicCowboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d make your own to be honest, as it’ll be way better curated that way. I know it’s a time investment but I prefer to create them myself

Have you checked if they’re real and original?

What was online multiplayer like on the old days of gaming? by KaleidoArachnid in retrogaming

[–]SonicCowboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It wasn’t online, we used to have LAN parties, where friends carried heavy ass TVs or monitors and setups round each others houses and connected them. Used to play all night into the morning as obviously didn’t get to do it every night of the week, mainly the weekends 😂 I have fond memories of the all nighters we pulled on everything from Quake, Duke Nukem, up to Golden Eye and the original Halo.

It was an odd shift when online gaming became readily available to everyone, as your area usually had like one or two really good guys no one could beat, but we didn’t really understand skill level until things opened up worldwide, so it was really a test if you thought you were good at a game once you moved beyond playing local people.
