  • Looking at it, I think you might get lucky and your flashlight will fit the same tail cap magnet as the smaller A series.

    If not, neodymium magnets come in lots of shapes and the strongest glue that doesn't eat plastic

    EDIT: nevermind I see yours doesn't have the little ridges, would have to file yours a little at a minimum and do real measurements.

  • The Entire Humble Games Team Has Reportedly Been Laid Off
  • Yeah I'm looking at it. And I found my receipt for the game from a year earlier so I couldn't have used it. But it's been so long and that's not a trivial amount of money I'd want to be sure somehow before I wasted anybody's time.

  • I got a Rocket League key from 2016, why in the world would anyone want that? Can I see if it's redeemed without using it? If you want to broker for a cut send me a DM and we can start figuring out what's in here, I probably have other things too.

  • Do you know any particular ones worth looking for? I remember swearing I had a code for Pico 8 and it was such a pain to wade through to find it. Might be worth the slog again to see if I had some valuable keys, been buying these things for awhile.

  • How do people feel about reviews like this?
  • I think of this reviewer as being someone who deeply loves this franchise but just ground the previous game into powder. This new release is their only opportunity to revisit the franchise they love. Despite being very disappointed, it still beats not playing in that world.

    For someone like me, I think this is a helpful and honest review. There are many reasons for larger play time that are unrelated to game quality. I don't personally consider it to be an indicator. I think I already also have issues with using it as a measure like $/h. It sort of seems problematic to always be asking "how long will this entertain me?". I feel like we should be valuing other aspects more highly.

  • J. Estanislao Lopez, "Places With Terrible Wifi".
  • I guess it's not helpful to just post that I loved this one. But I did, so I'll try to write a little more.

    It was a slow burn, first pass was quick. I went back through it a few times getting more detail out of each repetition. The text formatting with no line breaks was a wonderful choice. Dealing with loss, impermanence, and the encroachment of universal truths. All of this either so overwhelming or inescapable that it's immune to modern distraction based coping mechanisms. Or that they've become such a crutch we don't know how else to manage them. Love how the title is just a nudge of meaning, a lever to my own interpretation that like the rest sinks in as you spend time with it.

    Just great stuff. Thanks.

  • Anything else?
  • Mothership does something similar, when someone goes down you roll in the dice in a cup and turn it over so no one knows the result unless they spend a turn doing triage. The drama is so intense since the situations are usually really frantic.

  • Book recommendations that play with what it means to be a book
  • Great call, you have to be careful that you get the color version!

    I lost my original copy and when I replaced it, there was no more color. Had to return that one to find one with color. I think it adds so much.

  • What Are Some General "Buy It For Life" (Durable) Items You Recommend?
  • Like most things they aren't what they used to be. Find one with the old label inside, that will help. Supposedly also if it's made from the Canada line, not from China.

    I've had mine going on ten years and it's well seasoned with the groans of wife and children. Best hat I've ever owned.
