    Hope you find someone. I played it with my wife, and didn't expect too much, but it was actually one of the better games I've played. Truly fantastic level and puzzle design.

    Nice post. The ps3 is great fun if you like to tinker with this sort of thing, are on a budget, or even if you just want to relive some old games that never got ported to future gens.

    I picked an original phat model for $20 a few years ago. It came with a 60 gb hdd which I replaced with a 320gb hdd I had laying around that would otherwise just collect dust due to it's miniscule size. The console made a ton of noise and would get really hot, the thermal compound was completely siezed due to it's age and heavy work load, so I replaced it with some fresh mx4 and gave the console a good cleaning. I installed Rebug and set the minimum fan speed to 60%, it's still loud but it doesn't get hot anymore. Once that was all done I loaded up a 2tb external drive with my favorite games from that generation.

    To be honest, I had a lot of fun jailbreaking and tinkering with it, but I can count on one hand how many times I've gamed on it since. I should probably give it to someone who will get more use out of it lol.

    I would try out the original before playing 2. DD2 is very similar to the original but DD2 is better in my opinion. If you enjoy the first, you will almost certainly enjoy the second. DD2 may go on sale for Steam's upcoming Fall sale, something to think about.

    In Windows certain words are reserved for system use. When naming files and directories, you are unable to use these words. Con, being short for "console", is one of these words. Con is also the Spanish word for "with", so a Spanish speaking user could not, for example, have a directory called "Fotos con Jim".

    Yeah this would be possible. You would need to be diligent with backups if you planned on adding mods as the playthrough progresses, as adding mods to an existing save can cause unpredictable behavior.

    An easier to manage idea would be to pick a suitable mod pack and play that. I've been hosting a Valhelsia 3 server for my friends and I for a couple weeks and it has been a lot of fun. Valhelsia 3 has all the mods you mentioned aside from Ad Astra. Valhelsia 5 has all of them. There are tons of other packs you could play too. I prefer to play packs that are based on 1.16.5 and before as the performance is significantly better than anything that came after.

    Up and down I guess. My wife's aunt passed away and she took it pretty hard. I try to just be there for her because I know in this case there's nothing else I can do but I hate to see her so upset. It's been a few days and she seems to be processing it well.

    I'm also in the middle of a terrible IBS flare up. I would like to see a doctor about this finally, but being a young, otherwise healthy guy, I don't have care established with a doctor's office and getting an appointment is proving to be a challenge.

    On a more positive note we celebrated our one year wedding anniversary. Had a nice lunch together, walked our dog through the local arboretum, and opened a left over bottle of rye whiskey from the wedding to make old fashioneds (one of the drinks we had at the wedding). We will wait till our five year to open the bottle again.

    My wife, some friends and I wanted to play some modded Minecraft so I setup a Valhelsia 3 server for us. It's been a lot of fun so far, none of us have had fun with this game in years, so it has been nice to play again.

    I'm using a Thrustmaster Eswap X Pro. The joystick and dpad modules are hot swappable and can be put in any orientation you prefer. They sell replacement joystick modules for $20, which is nice because you don't have to replace the whole controller if one gets stick drift.

    Been playing Foxhole with a buddy of mine. The game is pretty cool. An mmo with a persistent war that lasts until one side takes the entire map, which is pretty large. All the guns, ammo, vehicles, respawns, etc. are player made and need to be transported to fronts. It's a lot to take in but it's engaging even while you're learning.

    Spelunky 2 - $20. One of my all time favorites here. Over 200 hours in, don't regret any of them. I could easily double my playtime without seeing everything.

    Dark Souls 1 - $30(?). Back in my teen years on the 360 I bought Dark Souls without knowing anything about it. I played through it with a buddy, passing the controller on death, and we had a blast. That first run transcends money for me, I would pay anything to keep that memory. Recently that same buddy and I replayed the game together and are now reworking our way through the series.

    Racingmaybe - $3. This game is amazing. It's a turn based drag racing game with an upgrade system. This is the best driving game I have ever played, far and away. It's a hobby project by a solo developer. At it's $3 price point this game is well worth the money. Seriously, if you're reading this, buy it. Or drop your Steam name and I will gift it to you.

    Mount & Blade: Warband - $20. This game is really starting to show its age but I still love it. Endless mod potential gives it tons of replayability.

    I could go on forever but these ones came to mind first.

    I watched the whole video trying to keep an open mind, but what they showed off just looks so generic. Quick time events, very basic looking fps mechanics, flight looks like War Thunder arcade battles. At least the gfx and animations looked pretty cool, although imo this is the least important factor of a good video game. Will probably be a skip for me, if it ever releases that is.

Don't get me wrong, it certainly wasn't the *worst* thing I've ever heard, there were a couple songs I did enjoy, and I'm not calling the rest bad, just not for me.

    [Day one and explanation.](https://beehaw.org/post/926306) # [2023] **My Head & My Heart** by **Moon Hooch** # Artist Info: - [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon_Hooch) - [Spotify](https://open.spotify.com/artist/4WoKI3ZPs544x2glFOJRyg) - [Discogs](https://www.discogs.com/artist/2634054-Moon-Hooch) - [Website](http://moonhooch.com/) # Album Info **Track List** - My Head & My Heart - Where Are You Now - Life Goes On - Stay - One Dance - Cure For Me - Save Your Tears - I Remember **Run Time** - ≈ 24 Minutes 56 Seconds **Cover Photo** ![](https://beehaw.org/pictrs/image/c2dfb305-cb31-45dd-b462-a9b8eb37a24f.webp) **Fun Facts** My Head & My Heart is a collection of instrumental covers. # Personal Thoughts I enjoyed this album. While I haven't heard *all* of the oiriginals, they sounded really good covering these tracks, especially the saxophone which takes the center stage on each. My favorite track was Life Goes On, a cover of Oliver Tree's song. I'm interested to check out more of their work because it seems like fans were pretty split on this one. Some said they didn't like the covers as much as their original works.

    [Day one and explanation.](https://beehaw.org/post/926306) # [2018] **Road To Knowhere** by **Tommy Guerrero** # Artist Info: - [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tommy_Guerrero) - [Spotify](https://open.spotify.com/artist/5qnkHpjyS6CUxH1UUy82B7) - [Discogs](https://www.discogs.com/artist/9958-Tommy-Guerrero) - [Website](http://tommyguerrero.com/) # Album Info: **Track List** - El Camino Negro - White Sands - Highway Hustle - Los Padres - Headin West - Silent Miles - Heat In The Streets - Sidewalk Soul - Slow Roll - Postcard Home - A Distant Closeness - Where Water Once Was - The Endless Road **Run Time** - ≈ 48 Minutes 5 Seconds. **Cover Photo** ![](https://beehaw.org/pictrs/image/a446087b-8b93-487c-a47d-3a70b98f47fa.webp) **Fun Facts** Road To Knowhere is inspired by "Ethio-Jazz, Afrobeat, Highlife Spiritual Jazz, and dusty funk 45's." # Personal Thoughts This is another recommendation from @coffeejunky@beehaw.org. I had heard of Guerrero before but had no idea he had a music career. Road To Knowhere has a groovy, relaxing sound that I really enjoyed. Highway Hussle and Los Padres stand out to me, Los Padres being my favorite on the album.

They later worked together again on another EP by the name Texas Moon. # Personal Thoughts Khruangbin was recommended to me by the same friend that recommended Dope Lemon and Parcels. I have a busy day today so I selected this short EP, and I really enjoyed the music. My favorite track was the titular track, Texas Sun, the instrumentation is fantastic and [Lee](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laura_Lee_(bassist))'s vocals are amazing, the song really takes you on a journey. Looking forward to checking out Texas Moon and some more of Khruangbin's work. Edit: Going camping for the weekend, I'll start posting these again Sunday or Monday.

Maybe this will change after some more listens. Preoccupied was my favorite track.
