These are my tweets for 2022 (sans replies and retweets).
With all of the Elon Musk Twitter craziness over the past few months, who know if this might be the last time I do this! (FYI: you can also find me on Mastodon here: https://hachyderm.io/@lucascosti)
All the URLs are still Twitter's 't.co' ones, as the Twitter API doesn't spit out the original URL text.
- PC vs console gaming 𧡠https://t.co/G0KDWHbHFa "When I manage to salvage an hour to relax and play video games, *that* is what I want to do. And it's really opened my eyes to why so many people choose to play on console instead of on PC." This applies to me now more than ever. Jan 04, 2022
- I used to be a die-hard PC gamer, but as I've grown older, and *especially* after I've had kids, my patience and persistence with PC gaming has disappeared. That's even before discussing the CRAZY prices of GPUs for the past 2+ years. Jan 04, 2022
- These days, I'm almost exclusively playing single-player games on consoles. It's mainly because of the ease of just picking up a controller and playing straight away for a brief hour. (quick resume in this console gen is *chefs kiss*) Jan 04, 2022
- And that's even before getting to price. For the price of *just* a mid-tier graphics RTX 3070 card, I've bought a PS5, XBSX, and a Nintendo Switch (let alone the cost of the rest of a computer!). Jan 04, 2022
- My main desktop computer is now almost 5 years old. I just don't see any reason to upgrade it for games. The investment just isn't worth it for me compared to console alternatives. Jan 04, 2022

- "They had underlying health conditions" WTH does that mean?! Did they have asthma, or did they have 3 heart attacks the year before? Were they a relatively healthy transplant recipient, or were they being treated for lung cancer? The line means nothing without context! Jan 18, 2022

- My daughter complained about being scared of something called 'Huggy Wuggy' that she saw some kids playing on YouTube. I was like, "How scary can something called 'Huggy Wuggy' be?" I googled it, and now I'm scared of Huggy Wuggy.π¨ Feb 25, 2022
