Took this in Alan Wake 2 photo mode a couple of years ago. Probably a fairly common location/subject for photos, but I thought this looked pretty coollllllll, so.

Finished Mixtape the other day, such a well put-together title. Story-based games don't need to be 10+ hours to do some incredible things... Felt like the perfect follow-up to their last game The Artful Escape - took what I loved about that game and did even more with it.

A video game studio should be allowed to make a bad game and gain some institutional knowledge without being gutted, skinned, and melted it down into glue every fiscal year.

The concept of using Copilot to generate "Earth Day art" in exchange for 20 Microsoft rewards points...

In the MSN app, an offer for 20 Microsoft points says to "Turn Earth Day art into points: Create feel-good images and pick up 20 points"

So fun of Prime Video to lock 4K streaming behind this new upgrade, after over a decade of it being included with the base plan.

I can't believe Campo Santo released the fantastic game Firewatch almost ten years ago, February 2016. I wish they would make some more original stories, seems they've just been supporting development on Valve games since they got bought out :(

I don't understand how or why they thought it was a good idea to release MW2 & 3 + BO6 & 7 in that order. back-to-back and then back-to-back? complete and utter franchise fatigue. just drop the annual releases altogether, already. www.theverge.com/news/841290/...

After her address yesterday, I wrote a letter to the premier without swear words. It took every ounce of reserve from the very pit of my sickened stomach. Perhaps you could share your thoughts with her too.

Premier Smith;
I was born here, not that it gives me any more rights and privileges than any other Albertan. I attended two of Alberta's fine universities. I worked in the Oil and Gas industry here. I have lived in rural and urban communities here for over 50 years. Your divisive and polarizing rhetoric is ruining this place I call home.
You should know, and I expect you do, that your words matter. When you constantly address the opinions of a minority of Albertans as legitimate, you fan the flames of separation, even as you say you do not want Alberta to separate from Canada. I wish you would also address the opinions of Albertans who wish to stay in Canada, instead of
"othering" us by saying, as you did in your address yesterday: "There are thousands of Albertans that are so attached and loyal to their identity as Canadians that there is nothing Ottawa has done .. . that would justify Alberta leaving Canada." You paint us as the ones who are disloyal. This is a betrayal.

If you truly care about a plurality of opinions, and I am not at all convinced you do, then you would choose to reassure every Albertan that there is a place for them here.
Instead, you pit Albertans against each other. That isn't leadership. I expect better from my premier.
So much better.
Sincerely,
Holly Hoye
Calgary Glenmore

Subway Cadbury Creme Egg Submelt (2023-2023): A 6-inch sub roll, filled with Cadbury Creme Eggs and grill-pressed until toasty golden brown. Was available for free, for one day only, at 4 Subway locations in the UK, with only 500 subs available at each location.

I for one am thrilled that journalism has been saved by everyone moving to substack. cant wait to find out what happens when a single company controls the publish button for every opinion worth reading. history has no lessons here

It feels like they started marketing this game years ago 😭 I don't want to hear anything until it releases at this point lmao I remember hearing the leaks that the game was in development back in 2018, but that's a bit harder to control as a studio lol

It's in the Microsoft Office app that they renamed to "Microsoft 365 Copilot" lmfao

Owen Farmer @limentum.com · 14/02/2025

Has a user *ever* actually intended to click on this button???

In the Microsoft Office 365 app, there's a button in the side menu that reads "Tell your friends about Microsoft 365 Copilot"

After clicking the share link, it prompts to share a block of text through various apps, reading: Microsoft 365 Copilot mobile is a new app that can help you be more productive on your mobile device Get it for free at (iOS and play store links)

danggg, so this is one of those strand-type games

"We knew we wanted the story of Avowed to follow the structural trend established in Pillars of Eternity and Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire, the previous games set in Eora, so the game would have three interwoven story strands – the political story, the metaphysical story, and the player’s personal story, where all the story strands met."

Do they really not have a "The Sims+" subscription or *something*? It has to be in the works at this point. I believe EA Play Pro comes with some, but not all add-ons. Not saying I want another monthly bill to pay, but I'm definitely not spending this much for paid content, lol.

An article by Mike Straw, titled "Next 'The Sims 4' Expansion Pack Has Been Leaked", dated January 29, 2025

A screenshot of an article from ScreenRant titled "How Much The Sims 4 Costs in 2024"

The Sims 4 has 71 DLCs, including expansion packs, game packs, stuff packs, and kits, totaling $1,235 (USD) in 2024.

The game's DLCs range from $4.99 to $39.99, adding new content like careers, activities, and items to enhance gameplay.

EA introduced a team in 2024 to focus on core fixes, but the high cost and frequent add-ons hint at a challenging future for players.

I know the Edge web browser has its own built-in coupon code finder similar to Honey lol (I somehow doubt they're doing the same affiliate code thing, though) It'd be funny if Microsoft was caught doing the same thing, there'd be a whole extra round of vids to be made!
