Agreed. Such a fun game, animation is great and humor is cute and quirky.

Having seen what the film industry did to Borderlands, my expectations are at about zero for this.

Maybe since it’s a Sony game and Sony movie they will respect the story, but who knows…

Isn’t the multi-player immersive sim thing what Arcane was going for with Redfall? That one didn’t work out so well…

Thanks for sharing! Glad these guys are still putting up the good fight against newag.

Any help on getting the full talk on video? They were still going when the video cut off at 45 min and I can’t find the full version anywhere.

I love these games. I replay them both every few years and they are still fun. I’m still pissed about what happened to Arcane Studios and what could have been had the big corpos not done their usual bs.

What?!? I’ve been wanting a fairphone forever and couldn’t find a place to send it stateside. This is great.

Fair enough. Maybe my concern is more with newer cars in general.

I don’t really care for this given the trend of newer car design.

I want to support the environment and all, but an EV car is going to be even worse than an ICE car with having everything controlled by touchscreens and collecting data that the car companies sell off to the highest bidder. It’s harder (if not impossible to customize or repair since the whole thing is based on proprietary software, and the average mechanic isn’t a software engineer.

Why can I just have an EV with a damn button for volume and AC controls?

I have a withings and I really like it. Their privacy policy made me feel better about allowing my info on the cloud. You can run it offline (it sends weight via Bluetooth to the app but won’t show 7-day trend an scale screen without wifi). I don’t mind that, so I leave it disconnected. I don’t use a home assistant though so I can’t speak to that part.

I have the withings watch also, so I use the app as my catch all health tracker which works well. it’s nice to have everything together. Can’t speak to any others but I’d recommend withings.

OH MY GOD PLEASE STOP CONSOLIDATING GAMING STUDIOS. I don’t want all my games to come from Sony and Microsoft.

Not a lawyer, but it seems like changing the ball throwing mechanic is an admission that they are taking ideas from Nintendo. Maybe they are trying to minimize the damage but still seems like they are weakening their position.

When I worked in the federal govt I was horrified by how much contractors charged for everything. And the govies didn’t even bat an eye at paying for it; it was like they just expected things to cost 50-100x market cost and didnt argue with any of them.

How realistic is it that any of them will actually get rejected based on a background check? I mean, the public information on these people is bad enough and they still got nominated. Is the GOP rank and file really going to battle their great leader on these nominations?

The article says one of the main claims in the suit is that OpenAi is violating RICO (racketeering) laws. I don’t get how they came up with that but I’m happy someone is turning the screws on them, even if it is Elon.

I guess it’s hard to walk the line between pleasing hard core gamers and speed runners vs more casual gamers. The speed run community takes advantage of glitches that in many cases make gaming worse for the more casual folks. It’s probably one of those things that devs have to keep in mind in choosing whether to eliminate a bug/glitch or leave it.

Elon kind of already did that with X and unfortunately it hasn’t taught him anything.

If you needed evidence that Trump was going to dismantle our healthcare system, here it is.

Yep, and I’m still never buying a Playstation. Not worth chasing exclusives when there are plenty of good games on PC.

It’s totally dumb that people calling themselves journalists write entire articles based only on tweets, essentially virtual gossip. I will be happy to see that end. At least it’s not as common now as it was even 2 or 3 years ago.

Good luck to them. MLK and Malcom X were critical voices in the civil rights movement, and they were lost too early. If the government was involved (as it appears it was at least passively) in the assassination, they should face some accountability.
