Aww, Iām very happy youād love to see me play this sometime! 
But, I might want to keep this one to myself.
From what I understand, there is official licensed music from the movies in the game and thereās also a Turn off Licensed Music option.
TBH, Iād rather experience the game with its intended music rather than have it be muted or changed.
(Or suddenly suffer a DMCA strike or what have you on YouTube if they detect music they donāt think I should be recording.) (Which I think is dumb anyway, but I donāt want a potential playthrough to be impacted by that).
Iām really enjoying playing God of War Ragnarok so far, and despite constantly getting sidetracked and needing to cut footage out, itās been cool to record.
I have a deep backlog, so Iām sure thereās something else I can get to after thatād be fun too

The Great Circle was one of my personal favorites that came out last year. Iāve never tried to actively 100% a game before this one.
I think the combat really makes you feel like Indiana Jones. Cartoon wackiness and all

Ooh I love games that make me feel like a character, hehe. Cool.
Iāll have to refresh my memory on the typical Indy combat by rewatching a movie or two then.

Thatās because youāre cool 
I understand, when itās your first time playing a game you gotta have the full experience, music and everything!
Iām coming to the end of Night in the Woods and shall watch your God of War after

I donāt usually post about philanthropy because quite frankly, recognition is worthless to me (
), but Iāve been doing something I thought others might want to join as well.
Itās called volunteer computing, where research institutes and universities split some of their computational workload among thousands of volunteers whose systems process the data using spare CPU that otherwise goes unused. For example, the University of Toronto might run a project to get volunteers to help process protein folding simulations for Alzheimerās research.
Itās super easy to set up and very customizable. You control how much CPU it uses and whether you want the GPU involved too (I donāt, to save wearing it down), and the whole process takes place in the background automatically. There are research projects relating to cancer, ebola, arthritis, COVID-19, but also non-medical ones like mathematics, astrophysics and climate prediction.
So if youād like to contribute to the next decadeās scientific understanding, using processing power that sits idle on your system, then maybe look up volunteer computing and we can contribute together
P.S. Donāt worry if your system is a 15-year old potato, I tested mapping cancer markers on such a thing and even running 10% CPU still got the job done 
Disclaimer: Make sure itās a reputable one, there are botnets out there. BOINC, Folding@home and SETI@home are all worth looking into, but I wonāt give a recommendation because this wouldnāt be an appropriate for me to advise what people download to their systems.
The one under Dulles? The ones at Harry Reid International look like the monorail Gordon Freeman rides at the opening of Half Life 
I shall indeed

Yea I guess the original idea was they would play music and maybe serve drinks in there and the damn thing would actually bring you to the plane. Then as air traffic ballooned that became impractical so they just became sardine cans with as many people as possible packed in and they would just take you from one terminal to the next.

I went wild at Christmas and ate a whole can of off-brand Pringles, and now Iām agonizing over what to do with the can. It claims to be recyclable but I know thatās a greenwashing gimmick. Cardboard sleeve, metal base, a foil seal and acrylic paint? That aināt happening!
The cardboard will be composted and the rest sent to landfill, so Iām upcycling it. Any suggestions beyond storing dried foodstuffs would be appreciated
My usual scheme is to drop loose change in there and when itās full, cash it in. But Iām in a part of the world right now where it wouldnāt be a smart idea to carry a tube of jangling coins through the street.
Iāve been asking around the market (yes Iām that person) and have collected the following suggestions: making slits in it and putting a candle inside, storing salt, putting lenses in it to turn it into a scope, turning it into any number of musical instruments, and (you guessed it) the storage of foodstuffs. Coincidentally many of them suggested things that their stalls stocked 
Iām currently thinking of painting it inside and out to seal it, then cut out the bottom (which is metallic and could be used for wax melts) and use the tube as a tree guard
Can you tell Iāve been given a very important decision to make tomorrow and Iām using this to stall while I process it?

Coat it in molten scrap metal and once the metal cools and the can is solid, take it out, look for the first person you can find who is being an asshole, and just beat the daylights out of them with it. Thereās recycling for you.

Iād just like to say for the benefit of the state intelligence officer reading this that I would never commit such an amusing crime in their country

You can take the troubling decision youāre avoiding and put it into this Pringles can. If you have nothing to represent the decision then just write it down on a piece of paper and pop it in there, but if itās like which guy do I pick for a promotion then you can put both their photos in there or which company do I use for X project you can put both business cards in there (you get the idea). Then you have a few drinks and light the tube on fire. As you watch it burn the right path will become clear to you.
