reminiscing inspired me to look at my own profile to see what I ever put up on here, and I see my bio is about 12 years out of date, and I have one wiki edit to my credit: Too Human. Feels appropriate, IMO. (pretty sure whatever edit I made must've been related to when there was an achievement system on here, but perhaps I was just feeling passionate about Too Human one day)
Love to the whole Giant Bomb team. I have followed this site from the day it launched - somehow closing in on 20 years now - and have been a paid premium member from the moment memberships were offered. Giant Bomb has changed in various ways over the years but at core it has always been about amusing and interesting people talking about what they're into and being themselves. If Fandom can't let Giant Bomb be Giant Bomb, they will kill what made this site and this community matter, and they will never get a click or a dime from me again. God speed, bombers.
This is the second news story today in which Alex has used the phrase "not too terribly." I notice this because every time he writes it, I assume it means he must be, in this case, terribly invested in Commander Shepard's story, just not too terribly.
Run msconfig and take a look at what's in your startup and services tabs. There may be plenty of junk in there that's slowing your machine down. If you're not sure what a program is or why it's on either of those lists, google it before disabling. There shouldn't be any meaningful wear and tear from a hardware perspective--your processor or memory shouldn't be any slower--but certainly even non-virus non-spyware stuff will get on your computer that can slow you down.
I am still playing (level 21, maybe 25-30 hours played).
I don't get the same whiff of desperation off of this email. A little cheesy, maybe, but basically it's just saying hey, remember this is still out there for you, and you can see more of the story that you might be interested in.
