Most people don't understand the advantages of a smooth buddy, but most people can't even begin to understand the glory of a buttery omlet.

I just heard that one of my favorite directors, Guillermo del Toro, considered making a Bioshock movie. I don't think many could've pulled that off, but I think he really could. He's got the mind and soul for monsters, creatures, and worlds right next to ours.

Ace Combat 8, another GOTY contender. I'm here for all of it, the long cutscenes, the in-mission chatter, the MP even (so far anyhow, i've exploded some planes as well as exploded). Supports 21:9 & HDR on PC! Cinematic action among the gorgeous clouds. Fictionalized Earth w/ real fighter jets <3

They quoted me in this New Yorker piece about AI today. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

“Let’s say there’s a world or time line I exist in where A.I. has been subject to regulation. It is ethical. It has no footprint environmentally,” the novelist Jeff VanderMeer, a prominent critic of A.I., told me over the phone. “With those guardrails in place, would I read an A.I. book? All I can say is no. And the reason is, in part, because I want to read something coming from a particular mind.” Using A.I., he said, “feels like a betrayal of the whole point of why you’re a writer.”

i am in 1994 taking a test of New Zealand school lunches here in my semi-dystopian Detroit, MI flat. This feeling intensifies the more i turn up my air filter (7.73khz hum) and increase my thc dosage (4 gravity bong rips per hour). If I achieve satori, i will signal with 111111111

just had a dream that i made kettle potato chips in this copper kettle that was covered in odd sigils that made the chips majick, they made you hear a whisper of your heart's truest desire and it made everybody cry.

My favorite things in videogames are explosions and music, and the #AceCombat series has always done great on both fronts. I'm also replaying Project Wingman again in #VR - will we ever get another one of these?

Looking forward to Ace Combat 8 so friggin' much! releases on October 1st! 3 days to go... I wonder if it'll have a #VR mod within a week of launch?

this is insanity - i've heard they did the same with tons of short-run academic books of every stripe... and now "the ai" is being given credit for copying innovative ideas in research paper use, because those books were the only printed source of them... and it is apparently allergic to citations.

The greatest racing game has yet to be made. It is part Lumines Arise, Mario Kart, & Dirt Rally 2.0. It is a flowstate inducer that, when played in #VR blends the sensory with the will of ritual, and leaves the driver with an annihilated ego, a heart the size of Jupiter and the focus of a monk.

Holy crap the Doom (2016) #VR mod by the Kharvox team is brilliant, I spent the last 20 minutes screaming and blastin' demons in the face on Mars. Considering wearing some couch cushions or something in case I bounce off the walls.

Half of the cinematic moments feel like miracles that they even trigger properly, and even then i'm not believing even half of what they're saying. Feels fake and shallow, i'm done pretending there's gold in these hills.

fuggin' Cyberpunk 2077 - another busted moment in the city. I really don't think this game is worth its' worship folks. I'm here on my 9th try to get through this mission is Kurt Hansen, blasted these dudes for the past hour and still can't continue. Sucks bad. The last 10 hours were for nothing.
