So I bought the Humble Godot Game Engine 4.0 Course Bundle the other day for $30. Zenva Academy charges $1500. Just finished the Intro course (61 lessons) and got my Certificate for it. Only 29 to go 😆 $1 a course is feeling like a pretty good deal. Link below for anyone interested. Now I just need to figure out how to make the next Vampire Survivors 🤣 #CoSoGaming #GameDev

Hauntii (Multi, XPd on #SeriesX via #GamePass )
A pretty twin stick shoot/puzz/platformer. Play as a ghost in the afterlife, searching for your past and trying to ascend.

This is a cool take on a twin stick. You can possess things and solve environmental puzzles, or possess demons and use their abilities to battle/explore. Neat "hand drawn" art style. Great music. I hadn't heard of it before it hit GP, very glad I played it. Do recommend. 👍 👍 #CoSoGaming #Gaming https://hauntii.com/

Figment (XPd on #SeriesX via #GamePass) Dusty, embodiment of Courage in the mind of a man in a coma, must vanquish fears and wake up the mind.

Short (6 hours) puzzle platformer with surprising wit and humor as it deals with mental trauma. Nothing special in the gameplay dept, but it stands out in the atmosphere. Lots of bright colors. Bosses that taunt you with musical numbers. Bad puns. Fart clouds. It was a nice bit of silly that helped my own mental state a little 👍

@Razdawg22 I'm a Linux guy so, these days it's all AMD as they offer the best support for Linux distros. Plus Intel having issues with their CPUs lately, tho neither of the ones in the Beelink are part of that (.. probably). In the case of gaming on a iGPU I would go with AMD every time. There's a reason they in all the game consoles and the Steam Deck, heh. In my experience it's much less headache to get AMD stuff to perform well.

@Razdawg22 Seen a lot of good reviews of Beelink MiniPCs. For around that price point you get a choice of either Intel Alder Lake N200, Core™ 1220P, or AMD's 6600H. All of those can "handle" current AAA gaming 1080p Low Settings and *most* stuff is 30fps+. So they should run most anything else pretty well.

@th3j35t3r I would actually argue that he doesn't even have that. A good Barker entices you into buying the ticket for the show. Other than the smooth brains already indoctrinated into the cult, who the fuck listens to his call and thinks "yeah, I'll buy that ticket." today?

The dude is an orange sack of rotten potatoes. He's not qualified to be Top Billed Clown. Shit, I'm not sure he belongs in the clown car. He belongs in a home with 24hr supervision.

@th3j35t3r And actually, following up on that thought.. it's incredibly frustrating to be coming up on 50 (year and a few months away) and seeing so many of my generation sucking down this Right Wing garbage. I grew up in a deep Red county with Lib parents and yeah, lot of stupid around us but I could reason with them back then. These days it's like their brain is smooth cause it calcified and they sanded it down.

@th3j35t3r I mean I'd figure anyone with a minimum of 5 wrinkles in their brain would be able to figure that out, so there's a lot of smooth brains out there.

Used to Mod in a turntable.fm room known as ACTH (Ambient, Chillout, and Trip Hop) back in the day (2011/12). Was fun finding and sharing music with people. Got a hankering for it again yesterday and decided to make a mix of stuff from my digital archives. Might do more, iunno. #CoSoMusic #Ambient #MinDubTech https://www.mixcloud.com/blackknight95857669/blackknight95857669s-inaugural-mix/

I bought 3 PS4s the last month or so. All broken off eBay. One had a bad HDMI. Messed up fixing it. One was a BLOD. Got a 3rd today, bad disc drive. Spent the day cleaning it/fixing the drive. Just needed the rollers cleaned. My neighbor's had a rough patch. Xbone quit a few months ago. His wife died 2 weeks ago. I just finished giving him the PS4 + 3 games. He was quite happy to be able to play again. Didn't ask him for anything. .. he did kick me a joint tho. #GoodDeedsFeelGood

@feloneouscat and probably orange.

@feloneouscat I read that he's watched the tape of his attempt over and over to the point his staff is highly concerned about it. Gotta think that's playing into it some. Tho yeah, WhoTF cares at this point? I doubt there's anything in the files that will actually mean shit to any of us in this screwed sideways timeline.

@00pi Unabomber level, basically.

@00pi Gotta rank up there with like, Stalin or Hitler, Mussolini. Or maybe Bill Cosby. A train wreck of epic proportions.

@feloneouscat Or great tell-all books. Tho I kinda don't think I wanna know more.

@00pi TIL. Still odd, but so very dwarfed by everything else there.

His kid being named Kick is the least WTF thing in this paragraph.
