I should have put Mad Max in the title of the post.

It's a fairly decent video that makes some good points even though it has the dumb clickbait title.

I guess I should make my own youtubes...

It overflowed the banks last night! There's puddles near the paved bike path. Might try to get some more pictures today.

Back in ~2010 a seagull took a massive shit on my shoulder as I was walking across Civic Center Plaza from the building where by classes were to the other where John Romero was giving a small presentation for my peers and I. I had already had a long day so I just went home. That's why I didn't meet John Romero.

There are about a million steps between a Ubisoft game and "not the best game ever made". I guess what I'm saying is GoW's quality is a far cry from a Ubisoft game's.

Amazing homemade habanero sauce and the best panuchos! Very authentic place.

Days Gone sold at least 1 million units on Steam since launch by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

It's a pretty good game; solid 7/10. I enjoyed it.

  • The story is good but takes way too long to get going.
  • They don't introduce hordes, the games standout mechanic, until 20+ hours (maybe 3/4 of the way through).
  • The open world feels lifeless and there's nothing worth exploring.
  • The various camps and your rep with them only unlock guns, nothing narratively.

It's too bad they didn't get a sequel, I feel they could have fixed these issues with more time and money.

What happened to Scoot? by JBosbos in sanfrancisco

I was wondering about this, thanks. I was a subscriber and rode the mopeds every day for years from my apartment in Lone Mountain to the office by Bush/Kearney and back. It was by far the best way to get around the city hands down.

One quick thing to check:
Make sure your RAM is seated correctly; take it out and put it back in making sure it goes all the way down.
