I wonder if its tech that could be used to aid people with disabilities.

I completed Doom, the final boss glitched when her life was at zero. The trigger animation for a stylish kill never appeared. So it laid there like a fish with a gaping mouth. I did everything to progress but nothing worked. Bizarrely the boss would shimmy around to face me, yet remain face planted.

I beat her again when I loaded from the checkpoint. Now I'm replaying levels to get all the weapon mods.

On the weapons, I think this is the first shooter where I will regularly use all the weapons (excluding bfg) they all have their uses or mod functions that make them worthwhile.

What about Jaden Smith's castle hat?

Katamari must've rolled over Censori's clothes as well.

I recived my 8Bitdo Pro 2 Bluetooth Controller last night. The Hall Effect joysticks feel like they slightly higher resistance, which is nice and precise. The only thing I don't like about the controller are the back buttons; it has two of them right above each handle and they can be very easily pressed by accident, so I haven't mapped anything to them. I kinda want to glue them down flush witht the handle, so I don't feel them anymore.

I woke up this morning, took care of my dog, made an iced coffee, and began playing SMB2. WTH? I haven't played games in the early morning (5:30am) in years. I usually read the news in a fog until I wake up, even on my days off. I'm playing games like I did in the 90s. A proper return to form.  

Well look at you, you young whipper snapper.

Well, my new doctor, a nice vietnamese man, prescribed me two months worth of an epilepsy drug that the pharmacist put me thorugh 20 questions and lots of side eye before he gave it to me.

It's a drug they give people with epilepsy to stop convulsions with high pshychological and physical addiction risk. It's explicitly not reccomened for my condition in two research papers I've read and Pfizer was sued for hundreds of millions of dollars for illegally marketing it!.

What could possibly go wrong? :

Pretty sure half a bottle of tequila would have been a better sleep aid.

Paper 1:

"There is moderate- to high-quality evidence that anticonvulsants are ineffective for treatment of low back pain or lumbar radicular pain. There is high-quality evidence that gabapentinoids have a higher risk for adverse events."

Paper 2: (CLBP = Chronic lower back pain)



"Existing evidence on the use of gabapentinoids in CLBP is limited and demonstrates significant risk of adverse effects without any demonstrated benefit. Given the lack of efficacy, risks, and costs associated, the use of gabapentinoids for CLBP merits caution. "

Not sure what an epilepsy drug will do for back pain. Which drug?

surgery not an option?

That why we call him Dr. Vader. The street drugs I were prescribed did nothing.

That's why I have not been around much. No drugs help. Went to a physio therapist and he gave me some exercises to do, which have been extremely effective, including accupressure. Long story. Any way. not sure if this is just pain releif (the accupressure takes it away) or actual healing, but I will stick with it.  For now I have a ten month supply of "Gabbies" as they are known on the street, so should be a lucrative side hussle

Playing Spiritfarer, and it is working out. Like it still motivates me to play.
