It’s worse than this. Having been in the room with many of them (long ago, before I knew they were psychopaths), the tycoons who are left running the industry have an active contempt for ordinary people, including their own workers. They actively want to oppress, control and punish them.

@smitegame.bsky.social I am not able to purchase god tokens because it says "already own all gods". I do not own all gods and have enough coins. Also submitted a bug report

They really added AI features/subscriptions to Notepad. You know, Notepad: the program that's supposed to be simple? That doesn't even have a wordcount function?

TIL about Joe Martin: a silent film actor with over 100 credits, he also happened to be an orangutan. He escaped from captivity on multiple occasions, assaulted employees in defense of women, and even attended a screening of his own movie.

@smitegame.bsky.social the balance in the game right now is embarrassing. There's a handful of gods that are far above everyone else. Lifesteal and healing is absurd, despite reintroducing anti-heal. I know you can do better than this.

@megacrit.com Is the regent from slay the spire 2 intended to be trans/non-gender-conforming? Or am I just really misinterpreting his (slightly) feminine death wail and the curves in his shirt? To be clear: it's great if that was the intent! I just don't want to misinterpret the situation.

#Smite2 is so badly balanced it is comical. There's a handful of gods that are so insanely above everything else in the game. Lifesteal and healing is brokenly overpowered, despite the reintroduction of anti-heal. Smite 1 had its flaws, but it was sometimes balanced, mostly.

A big problem of AI is classic Telephone (the children's game). It needs to summarize its own data, to hold it in memory. But that summary can never have fidelity to what was summarized. That's just how language works.

periodic reminder to delete the AI folder after MSFT Office's update if it doesn't let you delete it bc it's "open" somewhere, go to your task manager, close every instance of Office, and try again (even if you think you've deleted it, take 5 seconds to check and make sure it didn't reinstall)
officially about to set something on fire over MSFT sneaking in an AI utility in the newest Office update

if you want to delete tf out of it, go to C: \Program Files\MicrosoftOffice\root\vfs \ProgramFilesCommonX64\Microsoft Shared\Office16

and delete the "AI" folder

love that I'm gonna have to check every single time Office updates and delete the folder again

(doubly pissed bc that mfer was giving me some serious lag AND fucking up scrivener)

I was willing to give Highguard a chance, despite the overwhelming negative hype. But having both Easy Anti Cheat AND requiring Secure Boot? Probably reduced the playerbase by 50% just from requiring Secure Boot. I'm a big nerd, and I have never done it before.

The balance in Smite 2 rn is genuinely insane. A single item can turn off all magical damage (Sphere of Negation). One god can tank and deal damage thanks to crazy aspect (Artio). Lifesteal is either bad or impossible to kill through, depending on if you get one item's worth or more.

The new King of the Hill season is missing something. The jokes didn't land for me, that's part of it. But far worse: it has lost the subtle ridicule of conservatism. Hank being right, just to move the plot forward. Feels like Mr. Birchum or some Daily Wire show, not KOTH. And that's a shame.

I have given Smite 2 a lot of leeway. But the server infrastructure and UI is genuinely indefensible. I get kicked out of game because of lag. I rejoin (after several tries/minutes). Then—as I'm playing the match I rejoined—I get kicked because I am not allowed to play because of "deserter penalty"

This morning, ICE rolled into a Home Depot parking lot using a moving truck loaded w/agents, like a Trojan horse, to snatch up Latino workers. Whoever they could find. No idea if they were undocumented or not. That’s not enforcement. That’s racial profiling, and violates a standing court order.

Dear #YouTube, Maybe the reason people are blocking your ads so much, is because they are so numerous and intrusive. Forcing people to click the skip button, or play a 30 minute ad? Four ad breaks in a 13 minute video? Ads at beginning, end, and auto-inserted at black screens? Come on.

I don't know what it is: the alchemy cards, the garbage matchmaking, what. But Historic Brawl is the least fun format I've ever played. I enjoyed once, pre-alchemy and a bit after. But it's just impossible to get an evenly matched opponent, now.
