Every time I see someone demo a robot that’s human-shaped, I want everyone to remember how soft and squishy our bodies are, and the idea of fighting anything remotely terminator-like is absurd. But oh this one can do the Macarena look how funny! The money is in making them a weapon. Not dancing.

When I was a kid I found a MIDI mashup of Holding Out For A Hero with Wily Stage 1 from Mega Man 2 and neither song has sounded right without the other since.

All the people going “oh so you think you’re too good for country music???” Yes, I do. Any country song I became aware of in the past 25 years was about loving troops, loving cops, the singer’s divine right to a lifted pickup truck and/or tractor, or an extremely suspect interpretation of Jesus.

The Scalable Video Switch is finally back in stock and that thing would solve a THOUSAND problems for me but I would also have to spend like seven hundred dollars so obviously that's not happening. Hopefully I'm employed next time it's stocked I guess.

tim sweeney gave everybody a button that says 'press this to make your game look like shit' and not pressing that button would take marginally more man hours so every publisher mashes it with their palm while trepanning themselves with an icepick

context. sentiment. inferences. People seriously cannot do these things anymore. That’s why they angrily demand you spell out every joke, every reference, super duper promise you mean something only this one prescribed way. They cannot do it for themselves or tolerate the any ambiguity.

Someone jerkass used Claude to make a second screen mod for Dusklight on Thor because the native Dual Screen fork was like a year behind. Within 48 hours the (famously Anti-AI) Dusklight devs updated the native Dual Screen fork. Kill the computer. Ridicule vibe coders. John Henry wins every time.

Fuckin hate when the remake of something is the only/most accessible version of something and people just default to it uncritically, and act like experiencing the original is akin to getting a root canal, even if the original was universally beloved and popular enough to have been remade.

Idk if there's an event going on or what but I've seen the same handful of abusers and villains get lifted up multiple times today alongside work they stole from other people. But I can't say anything on main because those people haven't been outed yet and it's not my place to out them.

The attitude that it's the "woke left" that has provoked the current fascism and stripping of rights we're experiencing is so deeply offensive. It's pure abuser logic. "If you just accepted your place as second-class citizens, we wouldn't have to get all reactionary and oppress you even more!"

"Why bother addressing any actual issues when I can just focus all my media time on my proposal for burning trans people under a giant magnifying glass" Dude the Democrats are so far past unsalvageable. The entire country needs to be rebooted but the Dems need to be shoved out of the way to do so.

DLSS 5 feels like an extension of what they've been trying with things like RTX remix. This constant need to replace, replace, replace made as easy as possible. Every video game must be the same, it must look the same, every game is a failed step towards the ultimate goal of realism.

Life is good as Stuntman Ignition is now fully playable in RPCS3, and, unlike the X360 version, it's not capped to 30 FPS - so when emulated, it can reach stable 60 FPS! The game is BC on Xbox One, but it lacks FPS boost, so RPCS3 is the best way to play it.

"we need an NPC telling the player exactly what to do constantly and they can never shut up, because play testing showed that someone lingered a fraction of a second too long on a puzzle while looking at their phone" you need to be fired. preferably from a circus cannon aimed at The Sea.

Game Sack spent 2020 complaining on Twitter that police brutality is because people don't just comply with police fast enough and that BLM protests are all just an excuse to loot stuff, followed by his usual "but I'm not political!" This is his schtick and he has always been this way.
