Finally switched to pagination. The skipping of posts while reading was more than annoying.

Just finished "The portable dog killer" Episode of Security Now. Anyone interested in DIY electronics should listen, and even if you're not into that sort of thing, then it's still funny.
*No dogs were harmed... Sea Gulls might be a question.
Or the principal, or whoever that was from his school.

Remembering why I stopped playing Super Smash Bros in the first place...and playing at work is hard because my gut reaction is always to curse like a guy who just lost in a video game...and that doesn't work... (puns intended)

Praying to the god of mobility.

AFAIK, @thanksajdotcom and @scottalanmiller still use it.

Yup. I'm still on it.

I like it but the skipping on mobile is maddening.

Desk for the (corner) office built today,.. RadioShack,Grocery, and dinner done. Patch cable wired to power the 10" Displays in the car for the weekend speed racer trip to Virginia. It's not a long drive (eight hours one way),.. just the fun logistics of it.
@scottalanmiller and @JaredBusch both know that fun..
Been having issues with my ankle, and of course it popped earlier today so that has been a joy as well.
Time to find a refreshing adult beverage of some kind...

I got some American Honey for my birthday that I will be enjoying this week.

hour. Last night, for example, we saw 54GB download in a single hour on Steam.
I hear some XBox games can be like that.
Again, caps will kill these types of solutions.
We're back to the semi truck driving data around, as long as we can tolerate the latency, it can be significantly cheaper to do physical media.
Halo Master Chief Collection had a 20GB day one patch. Glad I didn't buy that one
The RetroPie I built my brother for Christmas depressed me. The games they came out with before Highspeed internet was widely adopted were so much more complete. Now, companies will release an unfinished game and then sell the fix for it as DLC and people will buy it. It's sad.
I've never actually seen this, ever. And I have over 2,000 games. What I have found is that they used to sell games that were impossible to finish because they had no way to patch them in the past.
What game have you seen sold where you had to buy DLC to make it work?
BioShock Infinite comes to mind (later fixed by dlc). Street Fighter 5 was a completely unfinished game on release (extremely bare bones). Off the top of my head

What was wrong with BSI and what DLC fixed it?
-
There are two Burial at Sea Episode DLCs and Clash in the Clouds. Not much DLC for BSI.
-
Street Fighter 5 was broken and you had to pay for it to be fixed by purchasing more? Or you just had to wait for it to be patched? You need to be clear. releasing games early for feedback is not bad, extorting for money is very bad.
