I had a car scare yesterday when my car's engine overheated when I was going to go to the lab. Thankfully, I managed to get back home safely but man is this Florida summer heat and humidity so ass. I also should probably get some work done since it's been a month since I've last done research work lol.


It's not even that difficult since I can do most of it from home since it's basically programming, but man have I felt unmotivated just due to no gf and no social circle to speak of outside of work (which really doesn't count). Oh well. Life goes on.

When I look up footage of this I find this some annoying fag with nearly a million views just putting the ps1 disc into a ps1 hooked up to a HDTV and it has nearly a million views. Are these the people who jacked up the "retro" games prices in the last decade to the point where it's impossible to build a legit small collection of games? Probably.

At first it was a little challenging on Expert or w/e, but if you're the type of fiend that visits 4chan on a Saturday night you'll probably be able to figure out a bunch of ways to "cheat" the system. I'm basically steamrolling the encounters now, and I feel like I'm somewhere in the middle of the game. May get harder again by the end.
I'll say it's still worth playing, but I'd appreciate more of a challenge.

Stonemachia is pretty good. Nothing revolutionary and janky at times but I'm really having fun with it. Parry mechanic feels really good. You have a little ball hovering above your shoulder that gets filled up whenever you parry and then you can drain it to restore some health. Give it a try if you like souls-like games.

FINALLY got around to setting up a plex server and populating it with 1000 or so movies and another 200 or so shows. Currently suffering the tyranny of choice - streaming services are kind of nice in that most of the content is shit, so when you see something decent it jumps out. With your own server, every movie and show is a banger and it becomes much harder to choose. For background noise today it's mostly Taskmaster and MST3K, but I think I might watch Trainspotting 1 and 2 tonight.

Just polished off my first playthrough of Blasphemous 2. Hardest challenge was finding that single Mark of Martyrdom I fucking missed after getting 100% map completion. It was early on in the aqueduct, took me hours
Not sure if I want to start NG+ right away or wait, heard there may be more DLC coming.
I got about a dozen other games I wanna play, I hate being in-between them. Still gotta do a fresh Lies of P playthrough, I beat it three times but then the DLC came out.

Yes and no.
It's not a silly and iconic as DE was. It's a bit more serious, has less hillarious moments (it does have well done whaky comic relief character though), but is overall well written and voice acted.

Main character voice kinda sucks, but you get used to it. Protofiro (the city where the game takes place) seems to be pretty well designed. I'm enjoying exploring it.

Plot is interesting and I'm intrigued to see where the game is going.

You should! It's probably 90% of what I use the deck for at this point, I love it. Extremely straightforward with emudeck. Even those 2-5 minute tutorials on youtube will give you everything you need, it's shockingly straightforward. It'll run everything up to switch perfectly, and will run probably 75% of switch games perfectly once shaders are compiled. And they are my dogs! Two poms from the same parents, but different litters. They're good boys, rowdy the way brothers always are.

Far Cry Instincts: Evolution (xemu)

Nikke - finished Prika's event. Idolslop, but wasn't that bad IMO. Glad it's the last one of them, however. Now I'm gonna catch up with the old content in release order - up next is Red Ash and story chapters 25-26, must be real kino from what I heard.

Gun Survivor 2 Biohazard Code: Veronica (Flycast) - 1CC on Hard, fuckin' did it! As for Very Hard 1CC - it looks possible, but would take even more time, luck and effort. That's why I don't like arcade games - 1CC is usually absurdly hard, and continues are too ambiguous - how many is too many? For now I used 8 imaginary quarters as Claire and 6 as Steve (2 to start, 1 to continue), hope it's reasonable enough.

007: The World Is Not Enough (PS1) - Just started today. Looks cool so far, but for fuck's sake, fucking tank controls again! I'm fine with it in Resident Evil and Silent Hill, but this thing is a fucking FPS! Was it so hard to let me swap the strafe and turn buttons in the settings?

If I can be a little presumptuous here, and I swear I'm not trying to be glib - touch a little grass. Get more sunlight, more fresh air, connect with someone. Modern life is filled with pitfalls that erode and destroy brain chemistry, and leave you isolated and in a dopamine well. Evolutionarily, we've barely left the plains and now we're in a hyper-advanced society that is not built to nourish the mind or the "soul". We need connection, tangible, material effort-reward cycles, and need to step away from the opiate brainkiller of stuff like tiktok, endless scrolling, and flashing lights. Not that you can't have all those, but they should be in moderation. Much easier said than done of course, but it's never too late to cast off the shell and grow, like a hermit crab. I love you and I wish you success on your journey, whatever it looks like. Anyway, I know how obnoxious advice is when you're down, so apologies if I sound like a real niggerfaggot. Took me the better part of a decade to get out of my version of that pit.

"You get born, and you nurse on lies, and you get weaned on lies, and you learn fancier lies in school. You live all your life on lies, and then maybe when you're ready to die, it comes to you — that there's nothing, nothing but yourself and what you could have done. Only you ain't done it, because the lies told you there was something else. Then you know you could of had the world, because you're the only one that knows the secret; only then it's too late. You're too old."

It is crazy what experiencing something like that can do for your mentality, sometimes.

Spent two hours walking miles to get up a hill that has a stone building that used to be used as a warning beacon back in the 1100s. Highest peak for miles around, and for the first time in my life I felt what it was like to be in wind that isn't held back by surrounding trees and buildings. Simple but extremely worthwhile experience.

Think it was what I needed to get out of my groundhog day work rut. Pic related.

Anxious. I probably have more clarity than I ever did before and after a lifetime of one shit after the other things finally seem at least a bit stable, but I don't know what to do with that. I am a 29 yo guy with a useless degree, no job and no career. I've been creating structure in my life, studying some stuff and reasearching all kinds of paths for about a year and I'm still unsure about what to do. That's not even mentioning the weird mix of inferiority complex and cptsd I carry around with me 24/7. I wish I was a little bit younger, then I would just grind for a couple years and get into med school. I don't have the time or the resources for that nowadays, realistically I would only graduate and start making money on my late thirties if I went for it. I've been thinking about looking for freelance 3d modelling jobs online but I don't know if that's just a pipe dream or a viable short term path. And yes, I know that the only way to find out is by trying it.
I'm just so tired of feeling stuck and insuficient, like life is bleak and I am as much of a fuck up as everyone always said I was. Like I don't belong anywhere and have to prove to myself and others that I even deserve to exist. Things have been like this since I was fourteen and i'm still grievin how a bad home life and my own issues killed my youth, but foresight is 20/20.

You’ve still got time friend. At 28 I was a shitty loser with a generic degree and a shitty retail job. By 35 I was a senior account manager for a top 10 tech company making bank. Bought a house (I’m a leaf so buying a house is a pipe dream for most with starter homes in the 500-600k range), got married, can’t believe how much better life got. Not trying to brag, just trying to say at your age I was drinking myself to death and debating declaring bankruptcy to get out of my student loans, with a double digit balance in my bank account at the end of the month. It is not even remotely too late to bring about the life you want to realize. The tough part is doing it, but it can be done. 30 years from now you’ll look back and say “what a fucking dummy I was, thinking I was out of time. I had the world in my palm when I was that young”

IO has finally figured out melee combat and they did so in a spectacular way making AssCrud and Arkham look mighty foolish in doing so. Weird no mainstream games have thought to include map aware/object aware interactivity into combat in this way (SC Conviction tried and abandoned it before launch). If IO evolves this system just a tiny bit and include it in the next Hitman it will be the perfect game. I'll never buy another game after that.

Fine. Starting new job in a new department in a few weeks. Gonna miss my co worker who gave me free pizza n drink and genuinely liked talking the shit with me.
Anyways, got a ps3 for a garage sale across the street. Told me I would pay a bit more for than the dude who's picking it up tomorrow if the thing works. They tried selling it to me without a power cable. Had to go out and get myself one. Offered to test the thing out at their place. They let me test it out at mine. Tested it out. Laser reader or disk drive is fucked cause it's not playing the ps3 or blu rays I own. At least the digital games on it work. Went back, told em I would buy it for a cheaper price than the other guy and use it as "spare parts". Neighbor tried to make me pay 60 bucks then 75 for it. I was able to low ball them. Gonna have friend fix it or mod it since he's more knowledgeable on that shit and went to vocational class for it.

I was really fortunate in that she was a work colleague - I too struggled a lot with socializing and broadening my social circles. While they didn't result in finding my eventual wife, I did have some success joining hobby groups and volunteering - the humane society, eco projects, astronomy clubs, photography clubs, birdwatching groups, all were pretty good ways to branch out socially a wee bit. I think the best mindset is to go looking to interact with people; friends and romance are something that organically grows from there.

MUCH harder if you live in a more rural area. I never had any luck there unfortunately. I found there weren't many groups to join, and existing social circles were SO insular. In cities, people migrate in and out so often that social circles tended to be a lot more fluid and allowed for fairly easy integration.

A friend of mine moved to another city after a breakup recently, and he's (I don't mean this unkindly) relatively below average and a bit lanky looking, and he's actually had some pretty reasonable success with dating apps - I think he's using bumble. Just coming across as a normal person who is kind and a little funny and just wants to do people stuff can be very appealing to a subset of the population who really don't resonate with modern dating, despite paradoxically being on apps. I was always too afraid to use them in all honesty, I think I was worried I would never get a response and end up thinking I was the biggest chud loser alive.

Genuinely rooting for you friend :) hitting that 30s wall of "real" adulthood is fucking intimidating, it's when I started to really compare myself with my peers, and found it very stressful

This one might be a two parter:

I think that you hit it on the head - it just takes doing the work. When I look at my colleagues, I don't think any of them are particularly smart or personable above the average person; they're just more willing to do the scary stuff. Sending in the applications, not being afraid of rejection, accepting that there is no actual consequence to taking a chance beyond not getting the thing. That was my biggest change in thinking - I used to be absolutely paralyzed by my fear that being out of my comfort zone was somehow dangerous or intrinsically bad. I spent so much energy trying to avoid discomfort.

The other thing was, and this feels so simplistic that it almost feels silly to type out, was actually feeding my body and mind. I ate like shit, slept like shit, didn't move my body, and spent all day playing videogames, and I wondered why I was stagnating and depressed. I'm not a gym guy, never will be, but I go for a walk every morning and every afternoon, do a little cardio, and try to eat relatively healthy. Still have junk food now and then but it's a treat rather than the foundation of my diet lol.

I also hate to be this guy, but the other thing that blew me out of my rut was a big dose of mushrooms. The neuroplastic analogy I like to make is that your brain is like a ski slope - you ski down it, and you make a path as you go. The next time you go down it, it's easier for your skis to follow the grooves you made on your last run. Do it over and over, and eventually you'll find it very difficult to maneuver out of the path you've worn into the hillside. But a heavy dose of mushrooms is like a fresh snowfall neuroplastically speaking, and it allows you to form new trails in the snow. If you do it with intention, you can choose where those new trails form before you start making the old ones all over again. YMMV but it flipped a switch in my brain that instantly killed my desire to drink, my desire to smoke weed, and opened me up to the possibility of improvement. Horrible, overwhelming 5 hour experience, but it really puts a fresh coat of paint on the synapses.

For actual career steps, it was just a lot of swallowing shit and working hard lol. My career path was basically kiosk phone rep > store phone rep > BDR > CSM > AM > SAM > Sr. Strategic Partnerships (where I am now), and the first half of that progression was absolute ass. Lots of stress, lots of obnoxious people. Hair went grey. But very doable. Almost everyone I know at my level just consistently applied, had tons of interviews over the years that went nowhere until they got lucky and got their foot in the door. Once you're in, it's SO much easier. Just have to not suck and you're basically set. Same is true of almost any career path imo - the first step is the really tough one.

Now I'm sickeningly, annoyingly grateful for every moment I'm alive. I love that I exist, and every minute I spent in despair has made the rest of my life an incredible gift. Truly hope you find the same, and that there was at least one piece of okayish advice in these wordswordswords blogposts

Thanks for the effortpost man. Do you think that anything in particular pushed you away from the fear of leaving your comfort zone, or did it just happen naturally after you started pushing yourself through it?
>actually feeding my body and mind
Yeah, I noticed it latelly. Just eating decently, sleeping well and working out a bit makes a world of difference. I don't think its possible to do anything long term if you don't care about this stuff.
>mushrooms
Not the first time I've heard someone recommend it. I do feel using hallucinogens is kinda like playing russian roulette, but that might be just fear talking.
>Now I'm sickeningly, annoyingly grateful for every moment I'm alive.
I think that's the one real upside of living through tough times. I mean, I'm still in the middle of them and sometimes I feel grateful and joyful just from looking at the sky or having some ice cream. You learn to not take anything good for granted.
>Truly hope you find the same, and that there was at least one piece of okayish advice in these wordswordswords blogposts
I've printed your posts and will look at them again from time to time. You did make me more hopeful about med school, although I know I still need to solve my money issues short term before even thinking about it. Thank you, anon.

Thanks for the advice, mate. Appreciate a sincere answer at this time, and the wishes for success
I do admit I haven't been the best at keeping up with positive activities like the one you are describing. Some frome me, the rest is from the world around me. For example, just two days ago we a plan to go to the desert got cancelled at the last minute by my friends. One by one they dropped of it even though we planned it for months. It made me sad because I don't think we will ever have another chance.
I know the world ain't that bad. But try to grasp happiness is hard when you don't even know where to look

I relate to what you are saying, especially the part about useless degree and wasting of time. Wish I was more aware of things back then. It feels now I'm stuck in a bog because of that.
Still, hope you found an out. Some did it, and I can only hope people like us do as well

Yes it is fun but I get insanely immersed and play like my literal life is on the line. Its a good game but from what I read in some reviews, quite a few people didnt like the mindfuck problem solving.

Right now my focus is going to be on quality of life stuff for the DLC, maybe anything that better integrates it with the past ones. Combat Extended stuff because I like the gun autism. Probably some vehicle and gravship functionality expansions so I can have a giant flying base with cannons mounted on it, that deploys vehicles to start conquering.
