We can not overstate how much the economy has become about turning everything that was a good into a "service" specifically to extract from you more rent.
ICEMAN: Scott, I finished your taxes.
CYCLOPS: It’s great having a CPA on the X-Men.
ICEMAN: Warren, do you want me to do yours?
ANGEL: Bobby and Scott, you’re my best friends, so understand that I say this with the utmost love and respect for you both: taxes are for poor people.
To me funniest part about using AI to write emails is that a prompt that will yield a sufficiently detailed email on any non-trivial subject, is going to need to be longer than the actual email itself.
So you are actually doing more, to do less.
Three panel comic. Panel 1: scene from the movie Aliens; Ripley is in a mech suit and delivers her iconic line: “get away from her, you bitch!” Panel 2: the xenomorph queen lunges at Ripley in the robotic suit and they engage in a fight. Panel 3: later, the xenomorph queen is standing in the shower, mid wash. She says, “‘it takes one to know one, honey.’ That’s what I should have said.”
Devs saw that in playtesting, they put in a fix: Cyphers are unstable, and if you carry too many, they can explode.
So now, the game is about sorting Cyphers. You are still supposed to give them out like candy, but players must now drop everything and sort them into keep and trash piles.
The designers noticed that when you give players single use magic items, they always save them for a really big boss fight.
So when the players finally face BBEG, each player has 600 saved up Cyphers, and they either nuke him down in 3 turns, or choose to save up their Cyphers for even bigger fight
Numenera is a brilliant RPG setting marred by a an absolute dogshit core mechanic.
In Numenera, 99% of all loot is supposed to be single use magic items. They're equivalent to scrolls, except that anyone can use them, and you can't copy them into your spell book.
Screencap of a spellchecker suggestion box. The word being flagged is "pre-ordered." The suggestions are: per-ordered, ore-ordered, pee-ordered, pr-ordered, re-ordered."
yes google I meant pee-ordered
Why did they call this rule “Plunging Fire” and not “High Ground” is beyond me.
Hot take: one of the things that Go got absolutely right is the trailing coma in multi-line initializations:
stuff := []string{
"foo",
"bar",
}
A white bust sculpture is used as a knife holder, with multiple knives and a pair of scissors stuck into it, placed on a kitchen island.
It's kinda crazy that the catalyst for finally getting a Windows native Tmux port was vibe coders demanding to have Claude grids on the Microslop OS, but you know what? I'll take it.
I mean look at this, it just works! 🤯
It's funny how people pretend not to understand that making an app at a "hackaton" is equivalent to building something in your garage using mostly duct tape, hot glue and zip ties, and while it may work, it is definitely not something you'd feel comfortable selling to a customer.
Can confirm. I recently re-watched it out of nostalgia, and I hate to say it, but it does not hold up.
Also, everyone is talking like they're in a marvel movie all the time because Joss Wheedon invented that trope.
This show literally pioneered "well, that just happened" quipping style.
I can't get over how much this looks just like Warhammer
Absolute game-changer. I have been looking for a native terminal multiplexer for Windows for close to 20 years now and I finally have one. And it will work with my .tmux.conf out of the box.

I buy these Arzopa 16" LED screens for use with my retro computers. You find them on sale from Amazon for about $60. Fits perfectly on top of my Apple IIe. The composite video is converted to HDMI using a RetroTINK #apple2 #retrocomputing #retrotink #appleII
Decided to introduce my niece and nephew to the all time classic of board gaming. They loved it.
PSone with the LCD screen attachement
Honestly if there is a white whale I'd really love to get into my classic console collection it'd be a PSone with the LCD screen attachment
Like, look at it? Like, REALLY look at it?
Isn't it awesome? Isn't it sick?
One of the coolest arcades! Every play it in person?
