    Rimworld with 995 hours, nearly double of the second, Factorio, with 562 hours. I wish there were trackers of this sort of stuff when I was a kid. Cause I've played a ton of Sid Meier's Pirates!, Ultima V, and the original X-COM. I'd love to see how those stack up with my modern gaming.

    I was team root beer, but I'm diabetic now. And there are better no sugar Dr Peppers. Well, actually, I haven't seen any no sugar root beers. But that Dr Pepper Blackberry Zero stuff? Amazingly tasty.

    It depends on the steak. A ribeye I'll want on the medium side of medium rare, because all the fat. But something like a sirloin I'll have rare. I've even been known to take a bite out of it before I throw it in the pan if it's particularly good looking. But the real upgrade to steaks is the sous vide thingie my brother gave me for Christmas a few years back. A few hours at the proper temp plus a quick sear and you've got a perfect steak that's not overcooked and oh so juicy.

    There is only one episode I actually hate - A Friend in Deed. Not only is it a worst pony episode, but she's absolutely out of line. Pinkie spends the whole episode torturing Cranky, who tells her repeatedly to leave him alone. Culminating in destroying an irreplaceable book of mementos. Even finding Matilda isn't a good resolution for all that. Cranky shouldn't have become her friend. The lesson should absolutely have been Twilight's telling her that not everyone will be her friend and she needs to accept that, not "there are many ways to be friends." When someone tells you they're not interested in being your friend, you don't just keep annoying them.

    And, yet, it is still one of the least horse views in my room.

    Love my ultra-wide. First one I saw was delivering pizza to an office and I immediately knew what I was spending my tax refund on that year. AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-Core Processor 3.70GHz 48 GB RAM AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT 8GB

    My biggest problem with Discord is how so much stuff is moving to it. Got a problem, you're told to go to their Discord and ask there. Which makes it harder for discovering solutions when the next person has an issue. Since it's not indexed by an search engines (and let's not get started on the whole enshittification of those with the flood of AI misinformation), and Discord's search function is painful to use. I also find big Discord servers hard to actually engage with. They're great for my 5 or 6 person roleplaying group to mess around in between game sessions, but are just unwieldy with dozens of people. Plus, with the Discord IPO coming, I'm pretty sure they're going to slowly degrade the experience. Feels like there's nothing like the quest for endless profit those create for ruining things that I once enjoyed.

    Cartoon? Gotta be Venture Bros. Although the first season of Final Space was one of the best animated shows I've seen. Pity the second season was so lackluster. I didn't even bother with the final season. Honorable mentions go to Bob's Burgers, Star Trek Lower Decks, and Metalocalypse. And if anime is indeed on the table, then Planetes also deserves a mention.

    Why, Pinkie Pie, of course. She's just incredibly annoying. She doesn't even have to open her annoying cupcake hole. I recently rewatched the whole series and the constant bouncing noise of her hopping through the scenes just got on my nerves so much.

    I've watched all of the show, excluding The Best Gift Ever due to inability to find a copy and Pony Life due to the horrid character designs.

    Galaxy, because she's smart without being an annoying know-it-all and using overtly long words all the time like Wind Whistler.

    Twenty characters, eh? Hey, that was 2 more than needed!
