Someone, somehow, got a hold of my main credit card information, and used it to charge $56 to a random GoFundMe for a family who had a motorcycle accident in Texas.

Disputing the charge means my card is canceled and a new one gets shipped out, ideally before my monthly bills come up.

The pettiness of the theft is what gets me more angry, honestly.

It's the totally random shit that's sometimes the most annoying.

Ever sneeze/cough/hiccup at the same time and aggravate an old sternum pain? Kept my shoulders _down_ and _back_ all day after that one.

In happier news: https://twitter.com/WayForward/status/1 ... 2756220928

Apparently the load times were greatly improved, and now confirmation of some sort of update!

Saw Shin Megami Tensai 3 Remastered is live on Steam. Is that one any good? I'm more into Persona, for the story/characters, but a combat heavy version might be fun too.

Somebody got mine a while back and used it to buy exactly $99 worth of gas at some gas station and then tried it again at another gas station for again exactly $99. I assume this is some kind of actual strategy I don't understand but it seems dumb as whatever bank algorithm detects fraud got it at once.

The most annoying part is having to go and re-enter your stupid card information for everything you have on autopay and then getting rude "payment declined" messages from the 1 thing you inevitably forget to change.

Well. I'm free of the US Army. 8 years of hell, Constitutional rights taken away, and I've come away a broken man.

I am free. I am a ruined vessel of sorrow and regret, but I am free.

Started up Person 4 Golden again, since it seems like the random crashes were because the Windows 7 compatibility was poorly done, and trying to get through the dungeon in the sky was becoming incredibly frustrating. Turned on the Jappohongo voice track, just for kicks. The longer dialogues, can't understand much of anything. The shorter, banal sentences, most of it. Noticed Yosuke was ending his sentences with "na," a particle I did not know. He was _using_ it like "ne," which is an informal way of ending a sentence to imply everyone knows what was just said already and should agree.

Looking it up, "na" is used to do that, but in a more masculine way. Or it can be the opposite, where you make a rhetorical point and don't want people to agree, such as to bring up a new topic (I.e., difference between a deadfaced statement of fact apropos of nothing and trying to swing the conversation a new way). Or it can be a very harsh imperative command not to do something...or a casual positive imperative command. "Don't eat my food!" versus, "Please, eat the food!" And lastly as an expression of wonder.

So a sentence out of context that ends in "na" is going to be real tricky to translate, is the lesson here.

Edit: Got wiped on the Shadow Chie fight (VH) because I either missed a "She looks at Yosuke with scorn" or she didn't do one that low on HP. Naturally led to her comboing with Mabufu for the kill. Seems like guarding heavily is vital.

Congratulations, former soldier! Your knees might be dust, but you've served your time, now to reap the rewards! Or become a mustang, I suppose.

https://www.metroid-database.com/prime-2d-demo-is-here/

[[ "Yesterday, Team SCU, the team who have been working on Prime 2D (“Metroid” is absent from the title for obvious reasons) released their first public demo. It wasn’t a joke, either. Download the demo here.

Lots to be said about this demo. First off it’s breathtakingly gorgeous. Sprite art of the finest caliber. Fans of Metroid Prime will recognize many of the same locales and enemies and even musical themes, which have been intelligently translated into 2D, astoundingly well. In the brief amount of time I spent with the demo, I was able to get to visit the rainy Tallon Overworld, the mysterious Artifact Temple, and the sandstorm-laden Chozo Ruins, but wasn’t able to progress much further than that. I will need to spend more time with it.

From what I can tell, the main items to collect in the demo are Power Grip, Missiles, and Morph Ball. I never found the Bombs or Charge Beam but maybe I need to play a little more. Starting items are Power Beam and Scan Visor. It also requires a mouse and keyboard. No controller/joypad use has been integrated in. I’m not sure if it’s planned either, as the game seems to be designed around using m+k play style. Fans may recognize the 360 aiming style from Samus Returns but for me, it harkens back to the old game Abuse. Anyone remember Abuse? No? Well then…

Since the game doesn’t immediately tell you the controls before you start (Despite the Readme saying otherwise) or even allows you to configure them, I’ll describe them here:

A key – Move Left
S key – Kneel
S 2x – Morph Ball
D key – Move Right
Q key – Scan Visor toggle
Space Bar – Jump, Release Grip
Mouse movement – Aim cursor
Left click – Shoot, Switch back to Battle visor, Lay Bomb
Right click – Scan items, Missile
Esc key – Map/Status/Logbook
I really wish the game allowed for a 2X or 3X Windowed mode. 1X Windowed mode is far too small for comfort for me, but Full Screen on my 1080p monitor seemed to do just fine. Definitely worth playing for all Metroid fans.

PS: Don’t quit when the credits roll, the game isn’t over!" ]]
