Regardless of the perceived merit of your post I think we would all just appreciate a little more participation here.
Yeah that’s definitely how I am. I can tell what’s coming and so I maybe just lose the “need” to complete the game.
I did that with Morrowind finally last year and just had an amazing time playing through it all the way.
Yeah same here. I have found myself playing almost entirely sandbox games these last few years. Where there isn’t really and end goal (or at least one I’m not required to complete) and I just get to build something or manage resources, etc.
Yes, same here. I have the last mission (I think, “Meet Hannako at Embers”) in Cyberpunk still to do and I pick it up and do a handful of side quests every few months. Maybe I’ll finish it, eventually.
I can count on one hand the number of games I’ve finished in the last 4-5 years. Off the top of my head
Games I stopped playing:
RDR2 is actually one of the few games I have finished in the last few years.
Oh man, how could I have forgotten to mention archive.org??
My favorite thing on there is the Old Time Radio Researcher’s Group who maintain a huge archive of radio shows produced between 1920 and the 1960s (and some from later years as well such as CBS Radio Mystery Theater).
I’ve been listening through the most well-known shows for about the last 10 years and I still haven’t even listened to them all and there are dozens of other more obscure shows!
Same here! I have a monthly donation going, and the $2 is well worth the hundreds of hours I’ve spent on it.
lol, well that much I already knew
Will do, appreciated!
Understandable, I appreciate your input all the same.
Would it be smart or even useful to try to reach out to her former manager to get info or try to trap them in a lie? E.g. “Hello Mr.X, I had a call to determine my eligibility for unemployment today and was told that you stated that you gave me verbal warnings prior to my termination…” And so on
They stated that “her behavior did not necessitate a written warning but verbal warnings were given” which sounds completely asinine to me given that they fired her without giving her a written warning.
Is the appeal process literally just resubmitting the application multiple times?
Would it be helpful to reach out to her former manager and ask why/if they made those statements or is it just best to keep our heads down and hope the appeal works?
Sorry about that, updated my post.
Sounds awful. I am pretty sick of just not being able to spend a single moment without being advertised to.
Seriously, why the fuck has advertising become so incredibly insidious and pervasive in recent years? I can’t go anywhere on the internet and not see ads or a warning to turn off my ad blocker or message telling me to subscribe to view the content. Worse, I can’t even be out in public in the city without having another fucking ad shoved in my face. I was recently walking downtown at 1 am or so waiting on an uber and really enjoying the cool night air, not on my phone or anything, just enjoying the moment, and I saw an insanely bright billboard advertising something.
I feel like ads are just starting to really wear on me. I’m sick of consuming and being told to consume and being manipulated in the death throes of capitalism.
Edit:spelling
I believe so and same, but I still thought it would be nice to resolve the conflict if possible.
(though on startup I just turn auto-open off and clear the console before loading a save, as is tradition)
