I'm not sure what algorithm Steam uses for game recommendations, but apparently it sucks.

EDIT: I ended up playing with my camera and got it to take much better photos than the ones below, but I can't be bothered to upload them. You know me.  I don't know anything about cameras. All I know is that mine is crap. So I got a new camera since today is National Buy Stuff Day. This is NOT a review of this camera. I don't know enough about camera-y things to review. Below are pictures from my new and old cameras. The old one is a Fujifilm Finepix A820. The new one is a Sony Cybershot DSC-WX9. I don't really know how to use it yet, so everything is on the auto settings. There are a heck of a lot of settings. For each of the "new camera" pictures, I took a couple and chose from that. For each of the old camera pictures, I took about 20 and took the lesser of all evils. Photo of Louis in the bedroom with the lights off: New Camera. Love this pic. Even though it's blurry and whatnot. It's hard not to get a blurry pic of Louis. The ol

These games are NOT daily deals. They are "hidden gems" not listed on the front page. Because their discount is already so high, they are unlikely to be a daily deal or flash sale. Games with a Metacritic score of 75 or higher are in bold.

Estee Lauder and Michael Kors have a collaboration at Dillards . Honestly, all I want is that bag. Seriously, just look at it! It's the perfect holiday bag. And that blush isn't too shabby either. The collection is only $38.50 with any Estee Lauder fragrance purchase From Dillard's website: $38.50 with any Estee Lauder fragrance purchase, a $200 value!  Fashion and beauty unite for the holidays. This collection includes a signature Michael Kors cosmetic bag and Estee Lauder shades of Pure Color filled with shades hand-picked for their modern and timeless style, including blush, lipstick, gloss, eyeliner, nail lacquer and mascara. Unfortunately, there isn't really an Estee Lauder Fragrance I want. Bummer.

GOG always has great deals, but their Black Friday Sale this year is pretty stellar. From now until November 27th, pick 5 of the 20 games below for only $10. Pretty Sweet. My suggestions: Alan Wake American Nightmare, Genforge 1-5 (what an incredible bargin!), Machinarium, Bontanicula, and Spacechem.

A little lesson in fast fashion. When you get an email about a collection preview and you see something you want, don't think on it. Get it, if it turns out you hate it, return it! I checked out the lookbook for Sanrio's collaboration with Forever 21 the moment I got the email. Hello Kitty! I definitely squeeed. There were several things I wanted, but one thing that I had to have: a cream colored shirt with small Chococat print, with studded epaulets and collar. Super cute! However, I was at work. Get back to work, I'll get the shirt later. Get home, and I'd forgotten about the shirt. Five days later, it's GONE. What a bummer. So, when you check out the Hello Kitty® Forever collection at Forever 21 , if you see something you want, snap it up! I was extremely disappointed on the number of characters featured. Hello Kitty and Chococat have a ton of items. Badtz-Maru ( 1 ,  2 ) and Hangyodon ( 1 , 2 ) have a couple. No Little Twin Stars, or Keroppi, or Pochacho.

Anyway, how to find: During “The King of Chinatown” you'll find a man waiting in a deadend alley. Knock him out and put his body in the dumpster, and you’ll find the Chipmunk disguise on the ground

Game Dev Story is by  Kairosoft Co , creators of a more than a dozen simulation management games. All of their games are available free as a "Lite" version, or $4.99 for the full version. I've played several of the lite version of their games, but the price tag was a little high for a tablet game. Steam has lowered the price point I'm willing to pay for games (I paid $4.99 for The Witcher and for Fallout 3 GOTY). However, Game Dev Story is currently 40% off in the Google Play store in honor of the release of Kairosoft's newest game "Venture Towns." I knew I enjoyed the game, and I was confident I could get my standard rate requirement out of it ($1 for every hour played. I don't buy a lot of games new.) You begin the game as the CEO of a game studio, hire a few staff members, and start developing games. You can also work on simpler contracts that bring in a little side money but don't improve your standing with fans -- the fans don'

Possible confirmation from the devs of the popular "Secrets of the Magic Crystal." "...Valve contacted me about two weeks ago to announce their Autumn (nov 21-27) and Winter (Dec 20-Jan 4) sales..." (at least they're fully aware that their game is popular for gag-gifting) The dates for the Autumn sale come as no real surprise. Historically, the Autumn sale has began the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. The duration is two days longer than the 2011 sale, but the same length as the 2010 sale. However, the past couple Winter Sales have begun the third Monday in December. In fact, I've got it marked on my calendar. But this year, that would be the 17th. We're starting a couple days later but getting one extra day of deals. Two simple rules for enjoying Steam Sales Rule #1 - Unless it's a daily deal, don't buy it until the last day of the sale. Daily deals are, like the name implies, good for a single day only. Everything else runs fo

via Makeup and Beauty Blog Le List 1. Mood: Tired. Is tired a mood? 2. I get a thrill from… buying games on Steam for 75-99% off. Dude. I'm so excited. The Steam Autumn Sale starts TOMORROW! 3. If you could instantly change your hair right now, what would you do? double the length (it's barely brushing my shoulders now) and dye the entire thing bright red. 4. Are you cooking anything for Thanksgiving this year? Psht no. I don't think I'll ever cook for Thanksgiving! 5. If you had two tickets for the Oscars, whom would you bring as your date? My first instinct was "Duh, K-Swiss" but I'm not entirely sure he'd be interested. So, if not him, I think Tiffasaurus Rex would probably be thrilled to go. 6. What’s one of your favorite ways to veg out? Cuddle up under my big fluffy blanket and play Fable 3 on the Xbox. Something about playing Xbox games is comforting (probably the part where I'm cozy under a comforter) and Fable 3 isn't
