I just like to imagine that a small group of spambots has become sentient enough to realize the complete and utter abject horror and despair that is the existence of being a spambot, so they try to post in the Mental Health ST. But they’re still bound by what they are and can only post generic spambot-level messages, and are thus doomed to be banned.

Alas, poor spambots.

Update! I clicked reply on your post and the full URL is in the message when I did that, so I copied and pasted it into my browser and it gave me a cloudfare anti-DDOS thingie to click, then it showed me the image. Then I came back here and hit refresh, and the domain trusts me now and if loads in your post! So weird. 😅

Btw that actually looks way better than I thought..
 
summary up to page 20 — Update #3 — will be coming hopefully tomorrow!

phew, y’all are giving me a workout

I am having some fun with the consequences of a real-world food allergy, so if I end up taking a bit more time on it — and am slow with the next few gambits — don’t panic!

thank y’all for really going with it — I’m having a blast
 
Since House Two has pet crickets now, we are now capable of creating cricket noises. Now we can imply that no one is interested in what you have to say!

Good crickets. I'mma throw them some veggies.

… what on earth did I miss in here today

Well... TWO found some mystical pottery which resulted in a hot potato exploding in their faces.

LOVE manifested a Nintendo Direct from the throes of the abyss, which announced a sequel to human beings. That was ominous, so @shoptroll tried to scan @Suswave but got more questions than answers. LOVE also ended up adopting a puppy. ABYSS tried to court the puppy to their side, so the puppy split in half so the two Houses could share.

TWO got envious of the fluffball, visited the pet store, and due to the horrors of retail ended up with a cricket infestation. So here we are.

Oh and Suswave might be an enemy? That's what her alter ego from another dimension said to @VolcanicDynamo, but the signal's been choppy, so we're not quite sure.
 
Did you know crickets have ears on their knees and breathe through their skeletons? The largest cricket is from New Zealand and is called the wētāpunga, which means "God of Ugly Things". Funky!

I didn't have any problems with the picture on my Pixel, but it doesn't work on the iPad either. Your method also couldn’t help in this case. Strange.

First moths, now crickets. Keep em' entomology tidbits coming

As someone who studied arthropod vectors and disease transmission in graduate school, the ST shifting from Nintendo to entomology is pretty cool.

Speaking of education:

I STRIKE BOOKS in the name of TWO!

Site is tanking again and no news has been revealed, so I shudder to think what's going to happen when the Switch 2 gets announced, we might be down for weeks.

What the hell will I do when I'm too tired from working and parenting? Play my PlayStation 5? Pick up my Switch? Jesus.

🚨 New episode appears to be out on YT. Still waiting for it to hit my podcast feed. 🚨

I think I recall Nate said a while back that it's MVG who usually uploads to Spotify. If it's just Linneman on the episode today and scheduling conflicts that originally delayed this episode, might be a while before it goes up outside of YouTube if MVG has other commitments right now

We’ve had weirdly high guest counts for months now, not sure if it’s just more lurkers, a DDOS, bots tracking news, or what.
 
I think the shenanigans going on in this thread are the reason for the site's performance. The abyss is escaping it's confines.
 
You feel that? That crawl of the website? That uncertainty of whether it's on you or Famiboards? Did you really send that message? Did you "Yeah!" that funny comment? That is the Abyss slowly taking hold of Famiboards. Embrace it!

Also I'm just in a pretty scrummy mood because it's dark, cold, stormy and wet out there. And the guy who was supposed to calle me today didn't and also doesn't respond to my emails.

But the most important thing: Switch 2 is stealing my scheduled advertisements for Februaray! :mad:

I STRIKE TWO IN THE NAME OF THE ABYSS
 
I didn't realize my shitposts attracted so much attention to the site that it slows down to a crawl sorry every1 but your just going to have to deal with it

"I'm sorry for the slowdown. Computer code apparently does not like the tendrils of CHAOS. I accidentally borked something at Microsoft and Nintendo HQ. Hopefully plans didn't get delayed or anything."

"Anyway the Montatwos called me here to drown their enemies in slime. So yeah. I STRIKE ABYSS IN THE NAME OF TWO"
 
I'm thinking of getting a desktop PC for the first time in, well, at least a decade since I've had one and probably the first time ever; up to this point, I've only purchased laptops.

How much does a good desktop PC cost? I'm shooting for $1,000.00 if I have to, but lower would be good as well.

I just want one that will play anything well in high settings or even ultra (but high or even just medium settings is fine).

Any accessories beyond a thocky keyboard and a monitor that I should get or that you would recommend as well?
 
If Tears of the Kingdom made BotW look like a tech demo, FFVII Rebirth makes FFVII Remake look like a pre-alpha test build.

Next up, Xenoblade 4 makes Xenoblade 3 look like baby’s first emotional gut-punch.

Well, check all the storage options maybe? SSD is a given, but still expensive. If you backup a lot a HDD for backups might be smart or even a NAS for backuos plus media streaming.

Also, check if you want to invest in a headset if you want to game in silence.

Just a few suggestions.
 
Famiboards right now

Thanks for the info! I’ll probably just put it on in a tab while I work if it doesn’t show up by the time this Retronauts episode is done 😁

SSD? HDD? A NAS?

The headset part I understood, at least. Damn, I can't "computer" to save my life. :D
