the family, who live in a new-build house in a small town

How can they be racists?! They’re middle-class!

Christ I hate The Express.

I may carry the dubious distinction of being the first Jewish artist to be de-platformed and defunded by Germany

The first? You sure about that?

Generationals - Put a Light On

Really excited to hear what you think.

Have you ever tried a Paradox Grand Strategy game?

Sorry, my previous comment wasn’t very helpful. I still only have like 70hrs online play in Dota. I’m very new. I dislike hearing when I play badly but I know that I am playing badly but I’m trying to get better, so it doesn’t bother me.

If I was actually somewhat good and I had people flaming me, it might bother me more. I kinda get that it sucks for people in Unranked queue when I play badly, so I just mute them and try to play better.

Mute early and often.

Cheers. It was an odd one to figure out. At first I believed it was just the ports, then I believed it was just the switches. I couldn’t find anything wrong with the stems. Lubing didn’t change anything.

Furthermore, one naturally assumes it’s something wrong with the North end, with the stem feet and the contact. 99% of the time, there’s no need to even look at the South end.

FYI I have posted an update.

Oh, I know. I adore Haskell.

Mate, I came on here to post Haskell as a semi-ironic ‘joke’ and it’s included in the top comment. You’ve made my day.

Sounds like there’ll be shit growing on me by the time Factorio + Expansion lets go of me.

Every time I’ve tried to play XCOM EW or XCOM 2 I’m having a great fun time, and then it seems a new Alien type drops which just wrecks my shit out of nowhere and I get so angry that I quit and don’t come back.

If I were good at video games, they’d have no doubt ruined me as PDS games have.

Only 244.6 hours but 99% of those were within a two week period last winter.

Personal fave Diablo clone?

The trailer for Shapez fucking slapped. Biters in Factorio pissed me right off but that just added urgency to get defences setup which just sucked me in deeper. I could never play without them. I derive too much satisfaction from wrecking their shit, after they’ve been such a nuisance.

Thanks for providing examples that you enjoy but don’t induce hyper-focus. I relate to the ‘consciously’ avoiding aspect. Sadly PDS games are only ever like 2GB downloads, so uninstalling them only buys me like an hour of freedom.

What are Incrementals, out of curiosity?

I tried a few times to get into FM but it never stuck. Which always felt faintly ridiculous. Almost as if I was someone who really wanted to get into heroin and was disappointed they couldn’t get themselves addicted 😂

I did however get that fix from Motorsport Manager. It’s way more ‘game-y’ and less simulation-like than FM but it gave me a faint taste of what an FM addiction must feel like.

I love Vampire Survivors. Have you played Halls of Torment?

So, this is exactly why I started this thread! Rationally, I can see how it’d consume an ADHDer but emotionally, it just doesn’t make sense. Just because I haven’t personally experienced it. It’s why I’m intrigued to hear from people. Though most of the responses so far are other genres I too have hyperfocused on.
