Coming from discuss.tchncs.de, I’d like to create a non-Lemmy profile in case things went wrong there. PieFed seems nice.

  • I still have a machine that runs Windows 10 LTSC. Used to need it to run Adobe softwares, but I get past that now.

    Now I need it to run my heavily modded Bethesda games. I can’t get my GOG versions to run through MO2 or NMM even with the help of Steam. I feel really stupid. Heroic Launcher somehow can’t run some Proton supported games on my end, too. My small collection on Steam seems fine, but most of my games are on GOG, I can’t figure out why sometimes Heroic won’t work.






  • My favourite ARPG, and one of my all-time favourite game. The gameplay, the character builds and loots are awesome, I especially like that you can use green Monster Infrequent equipments in the endgame too. But what’s even better are the lores. Every faction exists reasonably, there are no black and white, random NPCs you met on the road who only have a few sentences, make you feel for them too. I think I’ll continue playing it for many years. I’m also looking forward to the new expansion.





  • Masks, frequent handwashing, hand sanitizer, more distance from people than usual, less frequent grocery shopping, stopped going to public places except transportations and hospitals.

    I lost my uncle in the early days of Covid, due to hospitals can’t take in any more patients.

    Also I fear for the lives of our cats, even though they are all house cats. There were cases pets get killed by fearful residents. I fear the government would cull your pets like they did to the minks.

    But on the lucky side, we didn’t find anything lacking in most cases. We already had abundant N90/FFP2 masks and some surgical masks, they were from previous flu seasons and for DIY jobs. We always had a habit of changing clothes once home. Most of the things that were hard to find, we already had spare. Until later there was a food shortage, but that was another story.


  • I’m with you on this. It sometimes feels like those who play multiplayer games have a different schedule.

    When WoW Classic launched I tried to play it with a friend. But all they did were raids. Raids at dinner time, raids for four hours straight, raids every day. If I’d play with them, I won’t even have time to make dinner nor have the time to eat, sometimes I wasn’t even home when they begin their raids. It didn’t feel like gaming at all, just another chore. And I was told it was the vast majority of players. I remembered it has good would-building when I played the earliest release back at school, but I didn’t realize most people play it in a mind-numbing way.



  • I was just graduated, and very depressed. Found my first job, but got fired because of frequent mental breakdowns. I was on medicines that I can’t afford. Overall in poor health. But after failing some attempts in college, I generally abandoned the suicide plans during that time. It’s hard to believe it’s already been 18 years too, happy birthday to you.
