I disagree with part 2 “jumping the shark”. The first game starts out with

which was much more “twist the narrative just for shock value”. The game itself is an enjoyable playthrough, it’s just a depressing story. Joel deserved what he got.

I love these games but I jokingly called part 2 a depression simulator. It’s intensely emotional at points and lingered in my thoughts after finishing it. It’s an incredible piece of storytelling and art.

I’ve noticed that anyone who has gotten one newly installed can’t stop looking at it for every small thing. It’s like built-in paranoia. Not to mention that every time I take a walk in my neighborhood I’m now on bunch of different people’s cameras without even knowing it.

There’s quite a few jobs that aren’t union eligible, and trust me when I say I understand how they operate. The first trump admin made it easier to fire federal workers, and believe it or not, there are federal workers that do get fired for doing a bad job. I’m “making an educated guess” that some of those people facing disciplinary actions took the option to resign because I’m telling you what I’m personally seeing.

Im making an educated guess that there’s a decent amount of those 40k employees that were actually facing disciplinary actions or termination and are using it as a way to possibly avoid it.

There was a perk for one-hit knockouts and it would crack me up just running around and bonking people with a mace.

Dead Space. The remake looks great and the sound design is bonkers. I love the utilitarian design of the tech as well. Headphones are recommended.

This has been going on for quite some time, and will just continue in the background. I always had suspicions about all the positive comments on advertisements. This just confirms that they’re faking engagement numbers.

Western civilization has been addicted to cheap labor since the very beginning. From the Spartan slave state to the modern outsourcing of labor to people who get paid near slavery wages, or just old-fashioned slavery in some cases, even today. Humans are the root of the problem. It’s not a system or idea that’s the root cause, it’s us.

It happens on a regular basis

Only thing I worry about with toys is if the plastic they use is non-toxic. Most cheap toys sold online aren’t tested for plastic toxicity.

Open pit is much more common for this type of equipment and it’s basically a reverse mountain. Still might be enough regenerative braking from just the weight of the truck though.

It’s worth trying out just for the weirdness of it all.

This game is weird as fuck, but I also still think about it on a semi-regular basis. I really enjoyed it and would lose myself trying to all the complete deliveries. It’s worth playing if you have any interest.

I played this about a month ago after it was on sale. I genuinely like the survival/crafting genre and this was a fun way to experience settings from a series I’ve loved. I also had a lot of fun playing through this even with the “floaty” combat and optimization issues. As long as the developers continue to update the game to help it run a little easier, it’s definitely worth picking up if you’d like a new spin on the genre. Played on PS5 and it got very warm.

Let me know when A.I. can make me a decent sandwich, and then I’ll start care.

Vampire survivors is one of the best time killers. Slay The Spire is also fun.

Your Netflix subscription allows you to download the games separately. It’s a licensing deal.

My friend, I worked in commercial printing for 2 decades. You’re still making assumptions that are wrong. There are ways to transfer files that are lossless and even ways to improve and upscale artwork. Why do you care so much about this?

You should maybe look a bit more into it. How do you think commercial printers or even hobbyists maintain fidelity in their images? Most images pass through multiple programs during the printing process and still maintain the quality. It’s not just copy/paste.
