Rogue Trader. I’m up to chapter 3 and its dragging a bit.

Grounded 2. Very early early access but its still a ton of fun.

Peak. Mostly when my friend is available for co-op but I do solo runs here and there.

Hades 2 but its mostly on the back burner until 1.0 for now.

I’ve got a bunch of virtual novels, Pathologic 2, The Forest, and more in my backlog but with Silksong finally releasing next week they’ll probably be saying there for a while.

That’s one of the reasons.

Gimp refers to sexual exploitation.

No, it doesn’t.

Libreoffice only tells geeks exactly what the product is.

The target market is primarily geeks.

no one can pronounce it.

Sounds like your coworkers should expand their horizons. Libre is a common word in (at least) 2 widely spoken languages.

Being quick and catchy is a pretty low bar.

Not when you’re naming a product. You think its hard to get people to use Lemmy, imagine trying to sell them on “Federated Link Aggregater Website.”

It sounds silly in conversation.

As does Google, Instagram, and Tiktok but they at least managed to pick silly sounding names that don’t sound like a child trying to describe a loose bowel movement.

Gimp is a funny acronym that explains exactly what the software does. Libreoffice also tells you exactly what the product is. Lemmy is quick, catchy, easy to remember, and has a story behind it. Apache is… pretty bad.

Ploopy is literally “poopy” with an extra letter.

After reading up it sounds like a decent product but they should definitely consider rebranding.

I’ve got to say “Ploopy” is one of the absolute worst names I’ve ever seen. Before I even saw the picture, I thought “I bet it looks like shit.”

Yup. I bought The Forest for $2 a year ago and I’m sure I’ll play it eventually.

And I don’t get to stop going to work every day.

we want boobies and sex and romance.

Literally the parts I couldn’t care less about.

No, whether say “raise the bar” they mean “increase the price.”

This is the part I can’t wrap my head around. I’ve been a productive member of thr workforce for over 20 years but the idea that this is what the rest of my life consists of horrifies me.

I didn’t. It’s a real thing.

One of the 1000000 spin-offs of Christianity.

Yeah, I’m pretty sure Vance will be even worse for the country.

Amen. I am often critical of organized religion but every now and then I’m reminded that it’s not all rotten.

I don’t know if I can handle 4 more years of this.

Just discussing wouldn’t be but it also links directly to websites that distribute pirated content.

It’s illegal in their local jurisdiction.

Sorry, I don’t carry on conversations with Nazi sympathizers. I hope you have an awful day.

It’s going to be a window as soon as I can afford to finish the tattoo.
