I’d recommend looking for a used Herman Miller Aeron. They are super comfortable, offer fantastic back support and many businesses buy a bunch of them up and eventually sell them so you can find some pretty sweet deals instead of the $1400+ USD they are to get them new.

I think I paid $500 for a used one that was in excellent shape. It’s a chair that’s been around for a long time so aftermarket parts are easy to come buy if you ever need them. I swapped out the wheels on mine for roller blade wheels and couldn’t be happier.

Man I’m really happy you enjoyed Skinamarink. I heard the buzz about it and the fear that it instilled in some so I gave it a shot as it sounded really interesting and unfortunately I just couldn’t get into it. Perhaps I just wasn’t in the right frame of mind but I really wanted to be transported back to that fear of the unknown when you were a kid but it didn’t give me that and I really wasn’t into it enough to finish it. Happy for the filmmakers though and I look forward to what they do next.

I kind of bounce between Cocoa Pebbles and Cookie Crisp as my favorite.

I’ve been trying a few different alternatives namely Qwant and Startpage. I find Qwant to be the quickest of those two and have been using it most often. Trying to get away from the google ecosystem as much as possible, searches are getting bogged down even with an adblocker.

Completing the Vidmaster challenges in Halo 3 and ODST to earn Recon armor is probably up there for me. They sure didn’t make it easy and it feels good to have earned Recon. For example this achievement:

Vidmaster Challenge: Endure: In Firefight, on any mission, pass the 4th set on 4-player Heroic LIVE co-op.

This one alone takes nearly 3 hours of continuous playtime per attempt and I remember the frustration if you failed a wave and had to start over.

Yes! Artemis is being developed for both iOS and Android.

Honestly just oozes charm in my opinion. Also having Oatchi as a companion makes me want the game so much more.

I could be wrong, but I don’t recall there being an only online requirement for Starfield. Up to now the communication has been that there is no online component and that it’s only single player which makes this announcement even more disheartening.

I personally feel like the “no-microtransactions” label is still accurate despite these inclusions. It’s free to link your twitch to your battlebit account and watch some streams for the drops if you really want the purple skins.

The supporter pack is really just some skins to say thanks to anybody who wants to throw some extra money to the developers. The game already has a really low cost of entry anyway so I see no issue with this.

With you not being able to pick up weapons off the ground, I’ll be honest I haven’t really noticed the skins that anybody else has. Seems to really just be for you and you alone.

If budget isn’t an issue I’d highly recommend the G Pro Wireless / Pro X Superlight.

I read that the current rumor is that they’ll be announcing a new 2D Mario. While that would be really cool I’m really crossing my fingers for any updates on Metroid Prime 4.

While there are a few apps for Lemmy now, afaik this is the only app currently for Kbin users. More competition in the space will only make all of the apps better in my opinion.

I’ve been on a bit of an Alan Wake replay marathon this week in preparation for the sequel. Played Alan Wake and American Nightmare back to back and then threw in Control with the AWE DLC.

The demo has me fully sold on the game. Really love the action combat they have in this one and think it feels way better than what they had in XV. I’m intrigued by the story so far and was pleasantly surprised that the demo gives you a good amount of story with both of the modes offered. All in all I think it’s one of the best demo’s I’ve played in a while and can’t wait to get my hands on the full release.
