Damn I hate having options

As I get older I find I just don’t even have the time for AAA games. Other than Elden Ring, I haven’t played a AAA game in goodness knows how long. 80-100 hours of playtime is basically a year-long commitment.

I love that there are so many indie games that offer a more compact experience and seem easier to put down and pick back up. Much more my speed these days.

I agree though that we’re at a point of oversaturation. Steam is full of shovelware and barely discernable clones of crafting-survival games. But I hope the studios doing interesting work are able to survive this period so we can continue to benefit from their creativity.

My trans friends are what keeps me committed to voting Biden no matter how disappointed I am in him. Things are already really scary for them right now and I can’t be complicit in making them worse, even through inaction.

Agreed, the drops under the tongue are a lot easier to do at home than the needles. Though I’m not sure about delivery - for whatever reason my allergist always required me to pick them up in person from his office. Not sure if that’s regulation or just a quirk of that one practice.

You are not permitted hot coffee, warm milk, or a yogurt drink. You are permitted 750g of cottage cheese, each day, for a month.

One of these things is not like the other, one of these things just doesn’t belong…

I was expecting the article to provide a little more clarification on that point but I guess they decided to just leave it hanging.

My wife was more interested in the Louisa May Alcott house when she visited Mass for the first time!

The humor reminds me of early reddit. Very needy. Lots of Star Trek, Stargate and Linux. Of course there are a lot of differences too, but it does feel a little closer to the original techie reddit base.

The only good adaptation of Avatar is the Ember Island Players’ version from Book 3.

But what if you’re not in london

Few things are more American than sending off massive bombs to be dropped on destitute brown people.

This is what, their fourth?

95 Dems voted yes. 92 voted “present,” 13 voted “nay,” and 13 did not vote.

Republicans - who again control the chamber - voted 216-1 in favor.

I stand by the accuracy of my comment.

This is happening in the House that is controlled by Republicans. Unfortunately a lot of Democrats voted for it too, but the only meaningful opposition also came from Dems. So Dems are split while Rs are all in on the genocide.

Funny how the Israelis are called “settlers” and the Palestinians are called “terrorists.”

Only since 2018. Before then I was born on 1/1/1990.

There is no truth to this. A win in Oregon does not increase or decrease the chances of a future win in Oregon. The probabilities are fully independent of one another. There is no plausible means by which the probability of a future drawing selecting a ticket held in a particular state is affected by the residences of previous winning ticket holders.

The idea that “X just won, therefore X is on a roll and will continue to win” and “X hasn’t won in a long time, therefore X is overdue for a win and should win in the near future” are both examples of the Gambler’s Fallacy.

But people won’t want to slave away for my megacorp for starvation wages if we pay them not to work!

AI can make any blurry criminal look like George Lucas with the right LoRAs.
