Agree with your points and I think the characters look cartoonish. What I’ve seen of the dialogue looks awful. I’m a patient gamer and enjoyed DA:I, but might just completely skip this.

heavy sigh

The joke is that there are only two of you in the world still using an S10.

I am just so underwhelmed by most games these days that I’ve stopped buying them. I didn’t play BG3 until someone bought it for me as a gift, and then I really enjoyed the shit out of it. It probably made it even more fun that I didn’t plan to play it and had very low expectations. So I guess that’s part of the fun for me now - waiting for a sale or free game and hoping that it’s better than I imagine it to be.

Put them on M365 or Google Workspace. Do not buy a server.

And I would argue that explaining why people dont like the usage of “this” is not more useful than people writing “this” because of the Streisand effect we’ve witnessed and that you and I have now created is even more detrimental to a thread because it creates a distraction from the original topic. We now have a subtopic competing for brain cycles that clearly adds no value and is likely making us all stupider.

I award us no points, and may God have mercy on our souls.

Writing “Writing just “this” adds nothing to the discussion” adds nothing to the discussion.

In principle, I’m very mad! Those are my games!

In reality, I don’t replay very many games, so I don’t care too much.

Homelessness in Japan is illegal, so people turn Internet cafe pods into “homes”.

Importantly, you probably don’t know what all is encrypted in every app you use on your phone, so it’s best practice to encrypt the transport.

California is awesome.

Their values are aligned, theirs strategies are aligned, and so their efforts are aligned.

Ender’s Game was prescient text, regardless of Orson Scott Card’s personal beliefs.

Locke and Demosthenes are now armies of manipulative bots (but often real humans), shaping political discourse throughout the world. The Internet gave mind control powers to people with money, ambition, or both. We saw it with the Bernie Sanders and Trump movements in 2016 on Reddit, all too clearly for those who lived through an era where bullshit detection was a critical skill.

I was once fairly defeatist on this subject: the bad guys won, got Trump elected, and kicked off a new era of 80s conservatism that demonized progressive values like environmental conservation, freedom of choice in a number of matters, and equality.

But now, I’m starting to see young people stand up to their boomer relatives at Thanksgiving and bring facts and logic to social media discussions. And I have regained some hope that we will once again find a way to make the progressive “line go up“. Our society seems to swing like a pendulum between the right and left, over decades, and it feels like the Trump era was a swing too violent for most of us. It’s time to swing back.

Isn’t Asmongold one of those GamerGate dorks who hates “diversity in muh games”?

I’m gonna play this game. I don’t care about the negative GG/anti-Sweet Baby reviews.

Why do you need an adapter? I thought the Tesla superchargers had CCS adapters you could attach.

This is why I have no plans to buy a PS6.

I have a PS5, but Sony has begun releasing their most popular games on windows as well. I run it would be prudent to build a nice gaming PC, even if you shove it in a TV cabinet and connect a controller to it for couch gaming. If you’re patient like me, you not only get a better gaming experience, but a broader one.

Oscillators that give us access to ridiculous speeds on the way.

Just looking around their site, it’s trash like this that needs to get the axe.

Well, you see, it all started with Steve Bannon playing World of Warcraft…
