Even during my Endwalker marathons I took the time to shower and make good food, I just always set a timer so I'd go back to the keyboard and walk around a bit to avoid getting logged out :v:

FF14 use to not have a time out mechanic. You could stay logged in as long as the servers were up.

Assumingly they are still introducing NFT to all of their current flagship games though.

I set a timer for breaks of no more than 20 minutes.

Actually i should run a Pomodoro timer while playing, that would be perfect

Do you know the neighbors across the street? Would be better if an owned cat was inside where it can't have a negative effect on local wildlife. At the very least Brownie should be neutered if he's wandering around randomly. Maybe they would agree if there were a free service in your area? Sometimes you can get people to agree to it.

Unfortunately I don't know them. We want to get Brownie neutered and we're not the only ones so we're getting in touch with a local neuter/spaying organization (with Brownie's owners consent of course) but until we hear back from them, not much else can be done. I'd like if Brownie was just kept inside but I think they don't keep him inside because he likes to roughhouse, which is a shame since if they want to own a cat they should at least keep him inside. We've gotten the reputation as being cat people so the kids across the street have even said if they had caught the stray black cat before we did, that they were planning to bring them to us. Just not allowed to have cats indoors I guess. I feel like getting the adult over there to agree to a cheap/free neutering won't be too difficult.

hmmm, last time someone did that it was with some unpaid credit cards and I was able to later ignore them for a few years and they sold it again and i settled for like a fraction of what it was but even that I think was a dumb move because I could've just ignored it longer. anyway, don't know why i asked here besides it was open when i saw the email. i did finally get my credit to a normal human range but the dumbass credit union doesn't even have a cheevo system so whats the point

One time i prank called a bear buildin workshop and said I wanted my mamaws ashes put in a teddy from where she loved them things so well... The woman on the phone did not skip a beat. She just said, "Brang her on down here. We've did it before."

Me and my girlfriend (long-distance) wanted to have our own personal rom pit nights using Parsec and having us both using the same controller so we can effectively "pass" it seamlessly. However, we don't have the same controller. I know there's a utility out there that you can more or less use to convert a controller into a generic virtual input or something along those lines, what the gently caress is it called?
