From top to bottom these read like you’re being gaslit and having to get more and more assertive until you’re not even asking a question anymore. It’s just self assurance that you’re not crazy lmao

Engine maker CFM International says their engine has met “bird ingestion certification requirements”

so is that a paper certificate, or is it like a badge the plane gets to wear?

My artist friends were actually the ones to introduce me to bluesky! Some of those circles jumped ship pretty early.

“But we’ve also come to this understanding that there are players out there that who deeply care about this game and want to invest more into this game, and we want to give them that value to invest in.”

This reads so disingenuous as to sound willfully ignorant. When you hook a whale on FOMO and they blow $200 on a single event, that’s not an investment. The average person has NO desire to spend this money, but a certain kind of person can be fooled into it. There’s no value add, it doesn’t improve the experience, you’re simply given chores and then an option to pay real world money to skip them.

There’s no longevity in paying to not play the game.

The only writers qualified to give voice to his particular brand of nuance have unfortunately been shitcanned.

“I’m not, and also I don’t want it to be socially acceptable” gives massive “it’s okay to be gay as long as you don’t do it in public” energy.

Oh no, am I gonna hate Discovery? That sounds decidedly un-star trek.

Being a human with a body is fucking cringe, why do you think I wanna be a robot so badly?

I love The Left Hand of Darkness but it’s kind of a slow burn.

I know it’s neither of the authors you listed, but I’d honestly recommend The Hitchhiker’s Guide. It’s light, fast, and sure to help get your brain back into the groove of reading.

Doesn’t uncompressed audio also take up like, an ungodly amount of space?

I also expect the japan one to be lackluster at this point, which sucks because it was the only setting I’ve actually been excited about for an AC game.

It’s broken english but I feel like it knows more than I do.

that’s the one

every month i send off $10k for “the benefit and continued development of rickyrigatoni” and you’re telling me you work for FREE?

who’s been cashing the checks, ricky?

I encountered a certain npc with placeholder art without realizing it, and I just thought they were going for a really bold character arc.

Then I saw a second one and it made a lot more sense lmao

That was the first thing I played when I got my deck! My “recently played” at the time was all multiplayer FPS games and other shit that doesn’t play well with controllers. I figured “shit, at least I can get a feel for the device” and then blasted like 8 straight hours of it that first day hahahah

If I ever get dummy rich I’m gonna get veneers, but I’m gonna have em just do the cheaper solid titanium ones for my entire mouth. Look like a fucken halloween monster so people won’t take me seriously if I ever get delirious enough to veer into politics or something else rich people shouldn’t do.

Hades 2, no contest

Is it a different, better game?

I bought hades 2 last week and already have almost 30 hours. Those games have the most satisfying difficulty curve. The first time you fight a boss it’s overwhelming and maybe even feels unfair, but smash cut 10 tries later where you’re nailing a no-hit and thinking “hey maybe this boss needs a buff actually”

And the presence of “god mode” means I can recommend it to literally anyone, regardless of how apt they are for ARPGs!
