- Dodged a Clair Obscur spoiler earlier, but it was a close call! I’ve muted everything to do with it now

- That’s a long old stint! And what legacy!! All the best for whatever the future holds

- The production value is off the charts!
- Why is it an objectively fucking dreadful experience to try see how much charge your AirPods have?
- [Not loaded yet]
- I like the little treat you get when it does finally work to see that, for some reason, it's only charged the right AirPod despite both being sat in the charger together
- One of my favourite games! I played it on the Deck, and it's a perfect fit for handheld. Get on it!

- That's not a bad shout!
- I watched it last night. It's a well put-together video that tackles an incredibly serious and relentless account of harassment from many different people, presented in a professional and respectful way. I wouldn't have held my cool like that. The fact that it's been removed is fucking ridiculous
- Fucking hell. I didn’t realise how bad it was
- hating me gets them views here’s my story today 5pm ET // 2pm PT youtu.be/V4cB_g3U-iQ?...
- Listening to this episode like

- He said the line!
- On live chat: "A client would like to automate their process..." "They can always go into the system and manually delete the data". They could, yeah, but it kinda goes against the VERY REASON I'M CHATTING TO YOU DOESN'T IT?! I've spent 45 minutes going in circles
- Finally have an answer "nah, you can't do that"
- Get the Tories out any cost!
- Successfully* repaired the control sticks on my two Joy-Cons *and tore a cable breaking the minus and L button 👀

- Haha! You can always add layers of tape to the speakers if you want to turn them down
- I've bought a replacement bit for the bit that I've broken. I can't wait to open it up again and break more bits
- Share the last 4 games you've played and expose your gaming habits.

- It’s completely impractical but I kinda want it
- can we not
- what now? 😩
- It's worth looking into this if you've ever fancied giving game dev a go. I've been playing around with Godot for a little while now, and it's a fairly approachable engine. I came from Unity, and it all sort of made sense, but it's a good engine to start with if you've got zero knowledge

- I can’t believe I missed the 4th. I’ll strap in for next year

- Nicely done! Can’t beat an early run. It gets it out the way and sets you up for the day
- First run after resting my knee for a bit. It’s either gonna be fine or go badly and ruin my week* *life

- hero
- Knee doesn’t hurt yet Groin is tight Was hard work Swallowed three flies 7/10
- @irradiatedmouse.bsky.social the whole fly thing isn’t helping my being a frog lore
- [Not loaded yet]
- Haha! Throw in the panting for extra measure
- [Not loaded yet]
- Not far off tbh
- Not off to the greatest start. The new running tops I bought a month ago, that were on the edge of being too small, are now incredibly tight following a fortnight of me sitting on my arse eating nothing but cake
- Then I thought I’d water the grass (I’ve put stuff on it to make it look ‘not shit’) and the hose came away from the connector so now I’m piss wet through before even starting. It can only get better, right? Right?

- You’ll be quite fit with your biking so you might naturally be a fast runner. See how you get on when it increases. I struggled with my pace early on and started way too fast but I’ve managed to steady it a bit now. Managing the pace is probably the trickiest thing about running for me
- [Not loaded yet]
- Are you sprinting during your running intervals? I’m by no means a fast runner, but my first 5K was 37 minutes, and I’ve only just got it down to 28. You might find that as you increase the running time, your pace will naturally decrease. My comfortable pace is ~6:30/km
- We really need to stop focussing on the Clair Obscur dev team numbers. Let’s move onto something that matters
- I’ve not had a chance to listen to this episode yeat, but it’s a question I’ve asked myself. As someone who predominantly owned Nintendo consoles before shifting to Xbox with the 360, PlayStation has always been on my periphery, and I pick them up later when they’re cheaper.

- I’d love to see it!
- So close to a 100% win rate. Just a few more wins and I should have it
- Giant Bomb lives! Fandom has sold the site to us and it is now fully independent and employee-owned. We'll see you all on Tuesday for the Giant Bombcast. For more info right now, head over to www.giantbomb.com/join
- Things you love to see
- I’ve only just seen the Star Wars x Fortnite crossover and it looks incredible. oh no
- Played it. Came 4th. Felt it grabbing me again. I can’t do it, but it was nice to revisit
- When we transition into the “next generation” of consoles, it won’t be unrealistic to expect £600/700 price tags. Owning multiple consoles won’t be realistic, and if this generation is anything to go by, the prices will only increase after launch.
- The long and short of it is that despite owning an Xbox as a primary console for nearly 20 years*, PlayStation will be the more financially sound investment, especially now that Xbox is publishing its games there too. *fuck me, it’s really been that long since the 360 launched
- emotional day for me. managed to lead my team & release Rift Riff being caretaker of my wife (long covid, hasn’t been out of bed this year) and our 2yo son. i’m exhausted. proud. anxious. it would make my day if u can repost, buy, enjoy, review🙏🏼 Rift Riff: store.steampowered.com/app/2800900/...
- Congratulations on the launch. The game looks fantastic, I’ve just grabbed it for the Deck. Managing all of that can’t have been easy. Now try get some rest if you can, and I hope your wife starts to get better soon

- You’ve done a cracking job with that! It looks lovely
- Pressure washing the patio today aka middle-aged dad Christmas
- If you ever want to be reminded of your mortality, bend over with a pressure washer for 2 hours and time how long it takes you to straighten back up
- Full marks, obviously
- 6/7 for me. I’m turning in my Kong Kard
- Watching “Thunderbolts”
- Was good!
- did pope?
