We don't have the right equipment and have to use ancient technology that predates my year of birth, even worse is that my co workers are extremely lazy so we hardly get anything done. And I'm terrified of fucking up, as in I sweat bullets during work, and my boss is going on sick leave for 5 weeks which puts me in charge of all the tards at my workplace. It's all too much for me right now.

 

>>1738
I'm really sorry to hear that, anon. I wish there was something I could do to help, or some kind of advice I could share. I hope that things turn out for the best. What kind of work are you doing?

 

>>1739
Thanks for the kind words dear anon, I can't talk about this with anyone IRL as people will lose faith in me if I do, so venting here is the best I can do. Message boards are the only place where I can be honest with people.
I work at a medium sized business that was small up until a few weeks ago. They didn't even have accounting software until today, I just installed it a minute ago. The owner is a fair but strict boomer who has bought out his partners and is now overhauling everything, so he hired me to decrease his workload.I clocked 72 hours last week with a 2 hour commute.I don't mind the work just that I dread fucking up and having angry customers yell at me.

Thing is I dread going to work,but I used to be a Neet for a while (my own choice) and I dread that even more so at least I'm not a neet anymore. It's just a few weeks and afterwards things will calm down.

 

>>1740
Honestly, that sounds completely miserable. I admire your dedication to your work. The ability to commit like that isn't something a lot of people have. But, I hope you can also find something better for yourself in the future. It just doesn't seem healthy working this way, and so many hours.
>having angry customers yell at me
Yeah, a lot of people are real shit heads. It feels like that's especially true these days. Feels like most people have a lack of patience, lack of empathy, and a general lack of care. They only think of themselves and feel entitled to everyone else's time. It feels more and more like people go out of their way to be like this.
>It's just a few weeks and afterwards things will calm down.
That's true. Any time I'm going through something particularly difficult I always tell myself that it'll be over eventually. All things pass with time. Even if it's not easy. I'm still rooting for you, anon. I'm sure you can make it through this.

>It just doesn't seem healthy working this way, and so many hours.
Yeah sometimes i fall sleep as soon as i lay in bed. The work experience is very valuable so I'll stay here till I become a bit more confident.
>Feels like most people have a lack of patience, lack of empathy, and a general lack of care.
I blame social media for this, it has created an epidemic of resentment and envy , which results in people losing empathy for each other. Unfortunately as more and more people gain access to social media, the number of envious resentful people will increase. It's a sad state of affairs.
>I'm still rooting for you, anon. I'm sure you can make it through this
Thank you kind anon, please pray for me as i will do the same for you. I really need this job and can't afford to get canned or laid off. The mere thought of neetdome gives me night terrors.

Messed up the alignment slightly.

>>1687
The taskbar is Curtains. Media player is Musicbee. The K-On! thing is a cute desktop pet type thing called K-On! Desktop Accessories. The rest is Rainmeter.

 

>>1688
Oh, and PowerToys lets me snap windows to custom sizes and spaces with shortcuts.

Looking comfy, anon.

If you're a GeoCities nostalgic, this is a pretty neat little site:

Been using it since I was a teenager



 

Any one here currently have any electronics projects in mind?

I don't have any currently atm as I'm want to get through a book I'm currently going through, but I plan to try making an ereader and music player



 

i recently got really into beat 'em ups thanks to streets of rage 4. so far i played through the whole capcom and konami catalogue and some smaller indie ones (mostly modern ones) and i have to say, 1989s Crime Fighters left the biggest impression on me and a really fucking bitter taste in my mouth. Maybe it was just the emulator or ROM i used but holy fuck that game is not fun.

>>1469

>>1602
When i was a kid,There was this rundown arcade near thw park that had golden axe,mortal kombat,a game that i think was metal slug,outrun and a bike game i dont remember the name of. We would go there every weekend and being poor little shits we would give all our coins to the best player and just watch him play hoping to find some secret stage or character.I remember mortal kombat 2(or 3) had a lot of secrets.

Most of the kids i spoke of died due to a heroin epidemic that hit my town during the early 2010s.We moved away from that neighbourhood over two decades ago but i recently went back to see if the arcade building was still there and they had built a highway in its place.as in a full 8 lane highway.the old neighbourhood wasnt the same either, all the locals have moved away and were replaced with immigrants from the countryside, meth dealers and methheads all over the place,dirty grimey streets filled with stray dogs,people speaking a language i couldnt understand etc.There was another arcade near our old house but some restaurant had turned it into a warehouse.I came across an old shopkeeper and i asked him about my friends, most moved away,some died, others had simply vanished.Thats when i realized that the world i knew no longer exists.

I play old games because i want to go back to a better time, when things werent so complicated.

 

i fucking love beat em ups!



 

Let's talk about Treasure!

I started playing Dynamite Headdy on the Genesis Collection after reading about it in Legends of 16-bit Game Development. It's a lot of fun, but I stalled out hard right after Puppet Tower because, well…I'm no damn good at it. I need to get way better at aiming diagonally consistently before I'll be able to beat this level.

Then I picked up childhood favourite Bangai-O again, and raced through it until about stage 40, where I slowed down because it wasn't quite as fun. I'm not stopping, just trying to not burn out. Riki might be the hero, but I find Mami's lasers a lot more useful - homing missiles are good when you have one enemy in a wide-open area, but if there's multiple enemies then the bounce lasers are actually more useful because they won't get distracted. And I just really love watching the lasers bounce around; they're beautiful.

Anyone else enjoy some Treasure games lately?

 

I really liked Mischief Makers. It had interesting movement mechanics and overall felt like a really unique game. I'd seen it a lot at game rental places when I was younger but only actually played it several years ago. I've been wanting to play some of Treasure's other stuff but haven't got around to it.

I've actually played a bit of Sin and Punishment too. That isn't a game that I ever remember was made by them. And I know of Ikaruga, though I haven't played it, and have yet to actually get into shmups.

They don't seem to be dead but they haven't released anything new in over a decade at this point.



 

Is he gay? Remake made Yuffie essential, and one of the main characters. And she's mad thirsty for his dick. Why is he pining for Tifa or Aerith when he has prime Chinese ninja throwing herself at him?

 

>>1570
because yuffie is only 16 and 5'2" tall, weighing in at approximately 90 pounds, and even though that is legal in 98% of the world, square must follow the california rules of consent which is 26 years old, at least 5'5", and 180+ pounds.

 

Gotta hand it to them presenting the illusion of choice in the game's dating mechanic when there's only ever 1 option actually built into the story. Just like the original.



 

Does this mean that he's coming back to Capcom? The mythic Creator of Mega Man needs to return to sit on his thrown and to release his creative juices in the form of another Mega Man title!



 

I just beat it and I want to share some of my thoughts.

It is very good HOWEVER it is my opinion that they absolutely should've ditched the multiplayer aspect completely for two reasons

1. It took away resources from making more sp content
2. The message system partly antithetical to figuring things out for yourself. A mimic chest? There's a warning for that.

Everyone should play the game through offline first and use online mode for later playthroughs.

I remember reading somewhere that Japanese players kept hanging around the small keeps and forts at night assuming something cool would happen due to all the "Fort, Night" messages.

 

It's dark souls

 

>>1329
True, but there were still some useful messages around the place. You'd eventually find "try finger but hole" and "fort night" but occasionally you'd get some decent ones.

>>1330
I remember seeing "grass" all the time as well since "kusa" means LOL in Japanese IIRC.

 

>>1251
I also played through it for the first time recently, and I kinda missed the online component (was playing prepare to die edition, not the remaster). A lot of stuff in fromsoft games can be very unclear and/or convoluted, so I think players sharing info with each other is a fine mechanic. Better than having them look shit up on the wiki when they get stuck.

 

OP if you hate the multiplayer try out the "shadow of the eclipse" mod. It removes the online features and instead replaces it with new singleplayer content which is all pretty good.
