Still going strong with my effort to get all (or at least almost all) achievements for any games I play, managed to cross 70% average completion this year. 🎮

manu_faktur's STEAM YEAR IN REVIEW 2023

Check out my 2023 Steam Replay

Why is it that when texting with my besties about the downfall of society, the evils of capitalism, and similarly depressing stuff I have no issues hammering out paragraph after paragraph… but when I need to write a few nice lines about myself and my work accomplishments I have worse writer’s block than GRRM trying to finish The Winds of Winter? 😩
The saddest realization I had when watching https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qq8d5jvjarA was that it has been _six years_ since #Mario Odyssey, with no sequel in sight. (Although Bowser's Fury was fantastic.)

@MonaApp Is there a way to filter posts by their language? I couldn’t find a way to do so, maybe I missed it. It’d be especially useful when combined with following hashtags, where I have much less control over those posts’ language compared to my follower timeline.
Amsterdam, I am in you! 🇳🇱
Now almost 100 hours into #TOTK, the percentage counter on the map says 50.32%. I assume the majority of what remains is Koroks? Finished the main story last week – fantastic, even elevated #BOTW a little. Apparently still a TON of side quests too, no idea where they are even hiding. Uncovered the full map very early. The longer I play, the more grating the weaker parts of the game become. It's great – it's what I wanted and expected… and it absolutely does not surpass Breath of the Wild for me.
I sure liked #johnwick better when it hadn’t become a parody of itself yet. (And if I’m perfectly honest, that was probably at some point during the second movie.)

Anyone know of an alternative to https://themagichighlighter.com for #firefox (or #chrome)? It's a pretty neat idea, but not neat enough to get me back to using Safari. I could only find all kinds of generic highlighting extensions.

I nominated someone for a bonus at work (https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/incentives/#discretionary-bonuses) a few weeks ago. It went through, and they were told today. 🎉 I am SO much more excited about this than when I received a bonus myself! 😅
