Dear Silent Hill fans complaining about the new games taking place in locations other than Silent Hill. You do not want to play game after game after game in the same small town. Think about what it would actually mean, gameplay- and story-wise, if all these games took place in Silent Hill.

Capcom is my favorite game developer. For the past 40 years, they've been making my favorite games. I will never purchase anoter Capcom game again if they pivot to using generative AI in their game development. Like, I will happily never purchase another Capcom game again.

Finnish is phonetically a VERY DIFFICULT language for native English speakers. (I've discovered this through an Australian friend.) This guy is really struggling. But perfect pronunciation isn't the goal. Being understood is the goal. Good job, guy! www.youtube.com/shorts/k9HsJ...

I think the Finnish citizenship test should just be a liquorice tasting. If you can eat a bunch of black liquorice and salmiac, and enjoy it, you're a certified true Finn. If you can't enjoy it, you have to survive one more winter before you can try again.

I can't believe ketchup is more popular than mustard Forget about age, sex, gender, sexuality, race, nationality, religion, and disability. THIS is the difference that matters. Some of you know ketchup as the king of condiments. I don't believe in kings. I believe in mustard.

It's wild to me that, in the US, politicians have the power to hold hearings and investigations like this. Why is this a political proceeding? It's ridiculous that the country that pounds its chest at the rest of the world about the "RULE OF LAW" has no separation between justice and politics.

People think raccoons look like robbers wearing black masks. That's ridiculous! Have you ever seen a robber wearing a mask like that? Raccoons are actually commandos wearing balaclavas, and the dark rings around their eyes are the eye holes. They're dressed from head to toe in tactical gear.

I hate the fact that "How are you?" is a typical greeting because it forces me to lie about how I'm doing even to my closest friends and family. If I were to EVER respond honestly, that would immediately change the entire natute of every social meeting.

Turns out I may have been sabotaging my YouTube channel's growth by sharing my videos on BlueSky. I'll try to explain: The YouTube algorithm doesn't just care about how many people click on your videos. It cares about how long people spend watching them.

I'm thinking of rebranding my YouTube channel. "Excellent Universe" was a channel name I came up with about a decade ago. And I almost never uploaded anything for 10 years. Now that I'm giving this a serious try... Maybe I should just name the channel after myself? Outi Cosmic.

I love watching all the online discourse around Hulk, and seeing all the dudebro Hulk fans completely fail to understand that "Savage" Hulk is a child. One of the character's themes is childhood trauma. Hulk is Banner's inner child. He's angry, he's hurt, he's temperamental, he's lashing out.

Today on my highly specific Monster Hunter takes: Earplugs should be a Level 1 decoration, with Level 2 and 3 variants providing more ranks in the skill. It should be a quality-of-life skill I can easily add to my build without having to plan for it specifically. Thanks for coming to my GOG Talk.

The image is of a four panel comic.
In the first panel we see Sarah, the protagonist, next to a stick figure labeled “AI”. The stick figure says, “my outputs look just like yours now.”
The second panel zooms in on Sarah’s face. Above her we see text reading “I think”.
The third panel zooms in closer on Sarah’s face. Text above her reads “you missed”.
The fourth panel shows Sarah drawing happily in a sunlit room. The text above her reads “the point”.

Also, what communist countries are they thinking of? I've never heard of border walls being something that "every communist country eventually builds." The only wall I can think of that was built to stop mass emigration from a communist country was the Berlin Wall.

I want advertisers to have to disclose whether they've used AI in their ads. Then I want consumers to have the option to opt out of any ads created using AI. Because I'm currently having to MANUALLY BLOCK 90% of the ads that YouTube shows me, and it's a fucking full-time job.

I don't care, Daniel. I want to be able to admire the creative work of humans for what it is, even if it's not perfect or contains mistakes or falls short of the director's vision. More important than what something looks like in the end is the work that went into making it.

It IS s hunter wielding an Araketa Heavy Bowgun and wearing Araketa armor. Very excited to see what the other versions of this armor look like. If we get a good-looking helmet for this set, there is a non-zero chance that this will replace the Quematrice armor as my hunter's default look.
