FRIEND: Hey man can you help me with my dating profile? ME: say no more

He is resistant to drowning.
He can see invisible.
He can travel through water.
Despite his appearance, he can open doors.

The thing about calling your game "World of Warcraft: Forever" is you can't ever shut down the servers, because what do you mean you're discontinuing something called "World of Warcraft: Forever"

How insulting. Twitch thinks a chatbot knows better than you. If there's any meaningful utility for LLM technology, it's practically washed away by the fever pitch madness on display at these companies desperately trying to justify injecting this into everything. Completely unserious people.

"Meal Ticket" is amazing but "All Gold Canyon" is transcendent. Tom Waits had me hooked.

every day i desperately wish for either the complete removal of steam reviews or at the very least disconnection from the discovery algorithm. tying subjective personal review (with zero rules or regulation) to how many people see and buy your game is fucking insanity

"Why not just condemn him and move on?" because it doesn't stop there, and you don't let bullies win. He's a flawed provocateur but people seem to forget how hard the media tried to embroil Mamdani with scandal. They'll always go after anyone that tries to give The Poors a better vision of America.

GTA VI looks very polished with a lot of activities. I wonder how the game is structured, how do missions play and how does the story unfold? How much emergent gameplay is there? I feel like this is where Rockstar needs to innovate, not just through aesthetics or content but the design itself

Piker is provocative, but he does not support terrorism. It is not possible to have a measured conversation about him and the present media circus if we cannot be responsible with our language which, this hysteria is manufactured by the news cycle. Creating a divide like this is the intended outcome

Victims of abuse are going to look crazy, they are going to seem irrational, or unsympathetic, sometimes even indefensible, and abusers will often seem respectable, trustworthy or honest. If you care about justice, it's imperative that you use your discernment, especially when things seem 'obvious'

I don't need AI to personalize anything for me. I already do that by being myself! We need LESS personalization online, honestly, ESPECIALLY via AI and algorithm! I don't walk into a library wanting it catered to my taste profile. I want to browse and discover independent of any influence.

Whenever a company surveys me, the number 1 thing I tell them is talk to people like they're normal. No one likes hearing a script full of nonsense. For that matter, no one likes being surveyed! What the FUCK do you mean I'm getting surveys between Fortnite matches?? It drives a person mad

ESA cannot provide a safe environment for women, they are not a serious org. SpeeDons has been great as far as a non-GDQ speedrun event, but is broadcasted in French. GDQ cares about being good, so this is disappointing. Hopefully they can reassess this decision.

I think the point is it probably could've been appealed through standard channels, independent of Trump, but him having involved himself makes it look much worse. Something that could've been resolved in a fair way now has his stink all over it because he called FIFA.

StarCraft II had a new patch for the first time in a year and the changes are pretty drastic. Some guy on Reddit is upset, equating it to patching Chess after 1000 years. I think it's more like if you patched StarCraft II after 1 year, but that's just me
