I think he's the last one that needs to submit an order, so...

Dorfcon sounds awesome. Sign me up.

Work-related RAAAGE: because some asshole scattered a bunch of screws and bolts in a particular section of this parking lot, my quick and super-easy assignment now becomes a waiting game until the repair guy gets out here to replace a damaged tire on this trailer.
The waiting game continues...

The only instrument I've found so far is a gong. Two of them, in fact. They can make noises but sadly you cannot play songs on them.

Don't worry, no one knows how to set the time on their VCR.
Nobody even tried, and never will again because they don't own one.
Shit, ask some modern kid to explain what a VCR even is. I'll bet a number of them will have no clue.

I have entered the 21st century today, by receiving my first ever smartphone (a Motorola Moto X).

It's terrifying.
There are no buttons, and there are millions of (virtual) buttons.
The thing can do shit Captain Kirk would have been jealous of, but it took me five minutes to figure out how to make a phone call.
I idly said "I need to find a GPS app", and the phone found one (several, actually).
It has a camera twice as powerful as any actual dedicated digital camera I've ever owned.
There are so many bells and whistles (literally, in some cases) that I'm almost afraid to do anything with it.

I've become that old guy who doesn't know how to set the time on his VCR.
Don't worry, no one knows how to set the time on their VCR.

My brain is a little confused trying to reconcile that with that I visualize Culise as his avatar most of the time
Same here. Happens to a lot of people who stick with one avatar for a long time, actually :P

Eh, everyone is low quality.

Quantity has a quality all it's own.

High quality means you're a stuck up bitch.

Cake.

I wanna hug a baby seal.

Fallout 1, 2 and Tactics for free on GOG.
It should be obvious why this is a happy.
I have a whole day to take advantage of this offer. Thank the various gods, because I won't be able to get on my GoG account until this evening at the earliest :D

And damn, I forgot just how creepy the Flux was. Retroactively erasing your very existence...I get the chills just thinking about it.

I don't know if this was a thing previously, but after the most recent patch I've noticed that NPCs react differently depending on whether you have a weapon equipped or not. Like, at a small avian market with a guard, the guard sticks close to you with a weapon equipped, warning you that bad things might happen. Once you put it away, the guard calms down and thanks you for acting peacefully.

So far, it seems that I've only encountered only Avians. I'm pretty sure they're the most likely option when genning a planet.

This isn't true I'm sure. Most villages and towns I've ran into myself are glitch or apex. I've only ran into one small (Very small, one guard and 2 civilians) Avian settlement, a lone human merchant, a couple of floran houses, and just today some very strange avian houses that people vanished from. I don't think anyone is more common than anyone, other than humans  (And I think hyotl too) being rarer since they have no towns.
The vast majority of the NPCs I've encountered have been avians, even disregarding the heavily-populated skypirate ship. I think I met three glitch, a few human and Apex bandits...and that's it so far. No fellow florans, no fish-people yet.

I picked up an assault rifle and pistol. I liked the names :p

Also picked up a crappy knife for the same reason. I'll save up some pixels and come back to pick up a sniper rifle.

One thing I'm grateful for is that NPCs don't seem to be able to tell that you're stealing stuff. Despite several pirates warning me not to touch anything, I was able to loot as I pleased and no-one cared. Got a nice anchor for my spaceship and lots of decorations.
