You give really deep cuts on reccs and are an active threat to my wallet lmao. Love it 11/10

You're missing the point. The point is games used to be social, you used to learn about games through friends. But because games are more expensive and aren't as kid friendly. That dialogue doesn't exist anymore. I remember talking on the playground about ratchet and clank. I.e. the social aspects.

You might be missing the forest for the trees. You likely had the opportunity to go into a gamestop or something. Look at it, buy it, or even rent it from blockbuster. But a kid doesn't have the agency to go on steam and browse the same way we did. A kid still doesn't have money.

What is the second game? It looks so pretty!

I feel so old. I just called the cops on a party lmao.

Within the same cold war period - was the APILAS preferred over a LAW? Were there better AT weapons available for NATO forces?

Like it's just disappointing because the person I was working with today was 100% using copilot but she wasn't any faster than me. If this is meant to unlock productivity, why are people still slow? I had to sort through a wall of text before I realised it wasn't even answering my question.

I'm pretty anti-AI. But I try to give it a fair shake, but it underperforms hard. I accept my prompts probably aren't good. But if you can't give me the format for a chown or a chmod command. I'll just do it myself. I feel that is something AI should be able to do.

Yo wtf, my insta feed became filled with depression posts. I WATCHED ONE ADHD VIDEO. COME ON. I'm fine, work is a little hard rn but I'm fine. Tfman

I went to a second hand bookshop today and picked up the Dune Trilogy and a copy of 1984 for $30 total. A basic copy of Dune brand new is like $22. Bruh.

We got our grandparents to Australia relatively late in their life. My grandfather only recently passed. But I'm pretty convinced moving here from the Philippines definitely increased their life by about 20 years. All thanks to socialised healthcare. Americans are weird.

Wait is the white robot a mech or a pilot? Or is that a giant bag. Looks amazing.

Is this like classic xcom on steroids?

@lukeplunkett.com I'm catching up on my pods, RE:Whiskerwood. I'm pretty sure that Whiskers hoarding materials and stuff existed as a similar bug in Banished where vils would just HOLD onto stuff til they died.

Dear f1, if you refuse to fly over the track with a drone. Then stop flying drones during the race. Just use a big boom arm or a spider jfc.

I just finished Wolfenstein the New Order. I'm pretty sure one of the bosses is programmed to only blow up when you look at it. Because I did the thing where I turned away and nothing happened til I looked at the boss.

That's so nutty that Baldwin coined GamerGate. I do still have questions about the firefly universe: If Chinese is the second language of the verse, surely there should be a Chinese person on the ship. Or at least more encounters with other characters. The expanse does this mildly better.

I fired up ACNH for the first time in a while, so I could show my v young son. My wife asks "Is there a point to AC?" I go "not really, it's just being cute, catching fish and making friends. The whimsy is the point"

How long before someone builds the Nordschleife

Do you also do the same thing in Pokemon where if a spell doesn't do damage - you don't take it? Who has time to tail whip? damage only!

That's like me involving myself in drama that I wasn't invited to. Obviously the US/Israel alliance also wants Iran to be less of a threat. But like you don't get to just do this?

The worst part about all this is that even if a country is failing. No other country has the right to barge in and declare a war over it. Iran did a crackdown on protestors and that's obviously bad. But like, you can't just barge in and say you're doing it for the protestors?

CASEY, WHY HAVE I BEEN ACTIVATED LIKE A SLEEPER AGENT OMG.

Shoulda called it. Is this the one made by actual Za-Um devs or the corporate Za-um? I can't keep track of who's making what at this point lol.

Eric is this one of those Za-Um descendants?

We held a memorial service recently and had a family member send through AI generated songs to honour my grandfather I was furious and it unfortunately was very believable to my family It just felt abhorrent as my grandfather was an artist, musician and creative person. Like why honour him that way?

But I'm part of a very small group of people that don't want you to be inappropriate because protect the kids or something. /s Jokes aside, I've never felt the appeal to go this route, but I've never wanted to stop people from using it. That's just weird.

What is the deal with photography influencers pushing people to FF? I'm biased towards MFT, but like - these influencers are only ever pushing people to FF or even MF instead of trying to find a sweetspot RE: Portability and performance. Like you don't actually need a lot????

Water in NSW I find to be pretty good. Canberra water also quite good. Perth water? I wouldn't rate it. Need a filtering system at home to get a bit of the saltiness/hardness out of there.
