Argentina played a dogshit game and their players were shoving Spain constantly. Multiple instances of someone getting shoved to the ground outside of play. They deserved more cards than they were given. Oh and 0 shots on net rofl. If that fan is mad, it’s because there’s nothing to be proud of.

Eventually, some generations may become angry that the decision to live on this starship was made by other people many generations before them, and now everyone on the starship is cursed to live under that decision.

In Genshin Impact, it’s not known by the vast population that the planet they’re on isn’t a normal world. But it’s expansive enough that I think most people wouldn’t have much opinion either way. It would be like telling you that you’re trapped on a chunk of rock suspended in space. Well, yeah and?

My current favorite topic is the idea of a world ark, a self-contained world adrift in space containing the remnants of life from a doomed world, and the inhabitants aren’t aware of it. Intetestingly it has been featured in two different games: SOMA and Genshin Impact. I’m currently working on a TTRPG campaign within such a world.

I went to his museum!

You’re really underselling it. Huge content update in terms of zones, pals, abilities, items, story, music, missions, breeding, base building, combat, multiplayer functionality, and UX. Balance changes and updates to every aspect of the game. This is beyond DLC territory and it’s a free update!

Diaries of a Spaceport Janitor

You play as a poverty-level janitor at a bustling space port. Scrounge by while longing for a better life, seeing wonderous things that are beyond your class/wage level to experience! It sounds depressing, but this is a very charming game.

Smushi Come Home

Cozy 3D platformer with no combat and tons of chill little dudes to talk to and help out.

PictoQuest

Nonogram RPG. The story is nonexistent and the dialogue is laughably bad, but this is one of the better picross games I’ve played because the puzzles do actually look like stuff, and the completed puzzles even have animation! Plus the added elememt of combat gives puzzle solving a fresh twist.

Downvoting per the rules but this game is great

Plenty of water systems have surface intakes actually. But it’s certainly not going straight from the water surface to your tap.

Unless you’re on the Smith River in California, then you just need a filter!

We got very lucky. A coworker was looking to get a bigger house when I started my job and we wantes to get out of an apartment. We didn’t use a realtor and paid $170k for 1200 sqft and an acre. We’re on the outskirts of a small college city so it’s fairly quiet but close enough for a 15 minute walk downtown.

What has you so bent out of shape? We make use of it. It’s not even my car, it’s my wife’s. I drive an electric moped to work most of the time and my sub-SUV the four months it’s too cold. Would you rent a uhaul to go kayaking!? We drove 2.5 hours to my wife’s parents for a long weekend (Juneteenth) and brought an inflatable bed, kayaks, paddle board, and we came home with their smoker (they’re retiring and downsizing). Besides, it’s a Ford Maverick that gets 36 mpg, it’s not a massive gas guzzler.

Drive what works for you, but what we’re doing is economical and no more environmentally unfriendly than any other car.

I’m sorry? We have an acre that we’re converting from all grass to trees, shrubs, herbs, crops, and wildflowers.

Delivery of heavy things is costly you know. It simply comes down to: if you’re making use of it, it’s worth it overall. Our pickup was only 35k, same price as the Subaru we’d otherwise be buying. We’re outdoorsy and we’re converting our yard from grass to trees, shrubs, and wildflowers, so a pickup is getting its mileage. If you only need this stuff a few times a year then it’s certainly not worth it. People have different needs.

The Sonic Advance and Rush series have tight gameplay and awesome music

Go to the garden store, buy 20 bags of mulch, sling them on the back, drive home. Or go to the drive-in theater and lay blankets in the back! Or put a kayak in the back and leave the tailgate down.

That’s my use case anyway.

Bamdcamp took a stand against blatant slop but will allow artists to use some generative methods in their music.

The Bo Burnham special? Oh yeah the side-scroller

Ah, yeah. Well you can wear pants and no underwear at least. Plus it’s easily moddable, but point taken.

Just be Baldur’s Gate. Full nudity? Why not? I’m a video game, not a cop.

You can have it off and just use the “song search” on the top menu, but yeah. I assume it just keeps itself activated even if you disable it, they just try to be less blatant about catering to you.

Anecdotally, I’ve only had lime 2 instances of “google was definitely listening to show me this ad” in the 6 years I’ve had pixels, and I’ve seen just as many instances with other phone types. You truly have to go out of your way to avoid the surveillance.

Yeah there’s a “now playing” feature that will recognize music being played nearby, which I have found useful many times.

An AI note taker could actually be useful for some applications, like a meeting summary or play-by-play for a d&d session. It’s just all the other stuff about AI that makes it shitty.
