Is Ghosts of Tsushima "just" Japanese Red Dead Redemption 2?

I'm sorry but Britney's "Sheer Diamonds Dress" was peak dress and has not been topped in 20+ years.

Prove me wrong, LOL

#OnlyHalfJoking

I thought that, as I got older, I would get to spend time thinking about all the boobs I have seen. I thought that my only worry would be trying to be a polite old man instead of a lecherous old perv.

Instead, here I am, thinking about the overthrow of capitalism. It ain't fair, man!

@sashabilton OK, that is a sound strategy.

But consider...

BEFORE Godot, I was ONLY doing 2D stuff. But once you grok how Godot works the 3D stuff becomes so so easy!

Specially if you look for premade free 3D assets like those from Kenney, Quaternius, and others.

If you're set on 2D, follow your path. But I would advice you to be open towards the possibility of 3D. Just keep the project small so it doesn't get out of your hands.

@sashabilton full disclosure:

I did the tutorials (2D and 3D) in the Godot Engine documentation 3 times.

Then I tried to do just the simplest Hello World.

And then I just tried to do "make lots of 3D spheres on the screen", then that again but different size and color for each. Again, but with fake gravity mechanics.

And somewhere along the way it finally clicked that I don't need 20 spheres but just one and how to instance it.

Besides the tutorials, there are other gems in them docs.

Cribbed from somewhere else.

Now, this is the weird part.

More than a decade ago, a mosquito or bee or some other insect bit me near the area. I remember feeling like when you touch something electric. That buzzing in your nerves.

And I remember getting stung in that hand, and my instinct was to kind of bite and nibble like I was sucking my thumb back when I was a baby.

Now I'm wondering if I am (and would not be surprised if I was) allergic to myself!
😆😆😆

The other day I was trying to open a bottle of Diet Coke. And noticed the cap was very tight and rough as all get out.

And I thought, "oh this HAS to be it! These plastic bottle caps have been getting rougher and sharper throughout the years. And this is the hand I use to open them."

But no, the cap touches areas next to, but never actually rubs against where the callus is. It's a freaking mystery to me...

For years now I've had a weird callus on my right hand, next to my index finger knuckle. If I straighten up all my fingers my thumb will line up next to it.

Had dismissed it as product of gamepads... But my left hand doesn't have it. And looking at how I hold any of my gamepads none rub against that part of my hand.

Not tool use, not driving, or holding the cell phone or laptop brushes it. I have been trying to be more mindful on how I use my hands but cannot determine the source.

All computers at home and at work, of which I am an admin, are now running Linux Mint.

I did not, and plan not, any special arrangements for Halloween. I love the day, but the real horrors are too many.

Laughing hysterically at the spam email about finishing my basement.

They may know my email but they know absolutely nothing else.

I dreamt that I had said, unbeknownst to me, something which was improper. And a lady started berating or chastising me. And I was trying to understand why what I said was bad, but the lady was talking so fast that I couldn't make out what she was actually saying.

And I thought in the dream, "why can't I understand this lady's English!?"

Which is almost exactly what I said last night after our British visit had had a bit of our "pitorro" (local moonshine).

Be a rebel. Love yourself.

I have a visitor from England...

Quick what can I say to deeply offend or take them aback?

And how to say sorry afterwards?

Someone sent me a newsclip. Indicating that mosquitoes (they know mosquitoes is the only thing I truly hate) have arrived in Iceland.

And apparently this means there is nowhere on the planet where mosquitoes wont bite me, except for the poles.

It's raining! 🕺🏽💃🏽

I started playing Ghost of Tsushima and I have been rooting for the Mongols since the start. Sorry not sorry.

Whenever I turn on my Windows 11 laptop, this is what I wish would play in the background:
