    It’s in the name. If you were a kid in the 90s, you’re a 90s kid. Babies are not the same as kids. Kids can cover a wide range of ages, as they can be referred to as that their whole life with a certain kind of phrasing.

    I get the line is debatable, but I feel like consistent early conscious memories is about the starting line for “kid”. I’ve never really heard of it being used to mean when they’re born in conversation.

    This is just my experience, but I’ve never heard of this particular molehill.



  • I don’t really keep track of fashion for punks, (it feels like there’s a hole where fashion knowledge would go-i just can’t be arsed to pretend to care) but as an almost entirely bald guy (very short buzz) now I’ll have another paranoia to think about.

    It won’t make any sense (hence why I call it that) since I almost always just wear cargo shorts and a plain solid color tee, but now that annoying part of the brain will have this to latch onto.


  • Halo 1 was the first game I ever played online. I played a lot of it.

    But I was a very different person then, and replaying it now reminds me of how stupid I was (because I got into a clan that was very based on that kind of person) and the internal ick just his a fever pitch and ruined the game for me.

    I never played 2 since that was on Vista and I never went back to it after finally getting Win 7.

    After that the series just felt tainted to me. When I first tried it on a console it was really weird with the control setup. I was very used to hundreds of hours on Perfect Dark with the default controls. Having a second stick and rearranging what hand controlled what bent my mind in knots for a while. But it ended up making more sense that way (as you can easily tell by how much it caught on- not saying Halo pioneered it, but it was my first experience with it).

    That never even occurred to me and I used to do this for non steam stuff all the time. I mean without the added learning curve of Linux but still.

    I’m gonna try that as soon as it finishes patching. If that works it would be so amazing. Almost too simple to actually work.

    Edit- It’s already working better than Lutris. It would have chunks of the UI just turn black sometimes. All the interactable bits would come back if I pointed the mouse at them, but there would be black squares and rectangles all over the place with Lutris and I just chalked it up to a weird quirk that forcing cross compatibility just brought up inherently. Never even questioned it.
