Oh you can guarantee they won’t forget how to vote 😃

My favorite was the story of John Backflip

I don’t know if anything really tops Wolfenstein TNO. Right from the get-go you’re running through a trench dual-wielding machine guns and just shredding Nazis like you’re mowing grass. Plus you can personally stomp Hitler’s face in! 10/10 experience.

Why do these fuckers spend so much time and effort trying to make things worse? Like there’s scapegoating immigrants because it’ll rile up your voter base and get you re-elected and then there’s shit like taking away lunch from kids. Like who does that even benefit?

I’m genuinely asking if they just get giddy with excitement at the thought of making things worse for other people.

First week playing WoW and some goober told me to try the camp emote. /camp quits the game and I quickly learned my lesson. Wasn’t even mad.

Pretty sure they’re both required to do that by law. I’ve downloaded all my Facebook data a few times

Actually I don’t think it is. They’d have a license to use it in perpetuity but if they claimed legal ownership then they’d be responsible for what you post.

They get the benefits of ownership without any of the responsibility.

A buddy of mine worked in a theatre and told me that the film’s were all 1080P. I called bullshit. Those screens were huge they were clearly 4K. He showed me the reel and yup he was right.

If theatres don’t even bother with 4K, your TV doesn’t need 8K.

Ninja Gaiden walked so Pokemon Go could run

The actor drops character from time to time when he’s using long sentences and you catch a glimpse of exactly that. I’d love to see him do other stuff as well though. Thug aside, he’s legitimately awesome at breaking down subtext for dumb dumbs like me to get.

Me with Thug Notes. I wish I had discovered it during highschool :(

I think it was google that fucked it up. The newest (as of a long time back) version of Android broke it and I had to install a separate app to get ACR working again. And it never recorded their end properly unless I was on speaker or their side was somehow audible through my mic. So stupid.

Prey 2017 was one of the best immersive sims ever made. It wasn’t what people were expecting which led to a flop that nearly destroyed the studio. If you get the chance please please don’t sleep on it.

There was an unfounded rumor (now discredited) that it was supposed to be called Neuroshock. If it had been called that then players would have had a better idea what kind of game it is.

Hot take:

Piracy is virtually always justified. By pirating you are simply opting out of transferring wealth from consumer to big business which could be seen as a redistribution of wealth (however small) from rich to poor.

Exceptions would be indie Devs or filmmakers for which you would have more disposable income to support if you saved your money by pirating big budget films/games/software.

You are the embodiment of Dunning-Kruger.

I choose to believe Agent K came up with it.

Not me. I went years without until last week I realised I needed them for a script that points an object at a target in Maya. Turns out trig is really fucking universal.

Groovy has a certain ironic twang to it these days that makes it work. Like Rad.

I think a lot of these are just cool experiments and projects grad students do for the sake of doing them. Then some hack writes an op ed about how we don’t need to worry about deforestation because we can plop algae tanks down instead.
