I agree! The time loop was okay when I was just exploring more or less aimlessly but it got super stressful when I started finding leads I wanted to follow…

Hmm… In my opinion you can’t really compare Balatro and Brotato. You’re right, both games are about making numbers big but the way, they scratch that itch is completely different in my opinion.

Of course the gameplay loops are different and when you’re more into the action oriented approach of Brotato, Balatro just might not be for you, but that’s not my point: In my opinion in Brotato you build your character and when everything goes right you reach a point where you begin to scale and roll and become pretty much unstoppable for the rest of the run. In Balatro you have more RNG caused variance in the main gameplay loop so you might have a rounds where you barely win and rounds where you draw just the right cards and destroy the Blind.

For me, a Brotato run feels kinda more “linear” while a Balatro run has more ups and downs even when going well.

Also: Drool… My kids chewed on my more time than I can count…

Having kids is not an issue as long as you’re willing to quit sleeping.

Is backing into parking spots not the norm in the US? Here in Germany we back into parking spots most of the time, mostly because the spots are too narrow or short to enter forward. We also learn this in driving school and it’s pretty much an essential skill that’s expected from drivers in Germany.

To be honest software development and archaeology have a lot in common.

In Germany we call you a “Mädchen für alles”

Just ever so slightly losing grip on wet tarmac while taking a bend a little bit too fast and in your head you’re chanting “Lean, don’t break! Lean, don’t break!” to yourself…

Is it though? I thought we just had different regional names but we generelly agree that Pfannkuchen are the big flat ones and Pancakes are the small thick ones.

Those lunatics in Berlin though…

Who calls rugby “football”? That’s the first time I hear about that.

That’s easy:

Thanks for your explanation!

Today, I read about spontaneous and responsive desire (I learned something new :)). Spontaneous desire means that you get aroused mentally first, and then your body responds. Responsive desire means that you need to get into the activity first, and only then do you become mentally aroused.

Is this the same thing?

Would you mind expanding a little bit on the topic of “reactive libido”? I googled it but don’t think I full grasped the concept.

Brandon Sanderson writes amazingly rich fantasy stories an created wild lore heavy worlds in his books. But his books are also behemoths with thousands upon thousands of pages that require some serious time and commitment to read. Maybe not the best for beginners to start getting into fiction.

I’d recommend the Harry Potter books because they start easy and get more mature with each book. Also the story and lore is widely known and liked by a lot of people.

This is actually a pretty hard question. At first I couldn’t think of any show but the more I thought about it the more came to my mind.

I narrowed it down to these three:

• MAS*H
• Hogan’s Heroes
• Dinosaurs

Not because I’m so old but because they where first aired in my home country in the early and mid nineties when I was at my granny’s place a lot of afternoons.

Later I moved town, kinda lost touch to my grandma and wasn’t really there when she got very old and then died.

Looking back it’s really sad that I wasn’t there for someone who spend a whole lot of my childhood with me and in fact was always there for me.

That was me a while ago. Removed pretty much all mods and finally finished the game. All in all it was a great ride but in the end the game was kinda dragging (finished Phantom Liberty first than last quest of main game) and I’m glad it’s over.

There’s also the Vorwerk Tiger. That’s a whole nother beast of a vacuum cleaner

That’s the German way! 😁
