Jesus, why did I click around in there? I want to pity them for being so pathetic, but they’re being pathetic in the most aggravating way. This game is woke because it’s got a black man and an Asian man in it. That game is woke because it refers to the faceless protagonist with they/them pronouns.

What’s sad is I’m sure there are some people engaging in that forum as a form of satire and Poe’s law is in full effect so we will never know who is who.

Yeah, I’m sad Jackson got redistricted out of his seat, but hopefully he will win his State Attorney General race and be well positioned to take a US senate position or maybe even run for governor down the line.

Not to mention the Republican candidate called trans people filth, demonized abortion after his wife had one, and was known to spend multiple nights per week at the local adult arcade

Can we get a modified version of this with NC gubernatorial candidate Mark Robinson as a rare unicorn black, pro-slavery Nazi?

That’s one you can choose. I’ve always stuck with the classic First in Flight. Way too many In God We Trust driving around though

Yeah, my OP9 was my third OnePlus phone and my last one. I installed a security update that made the cell radio completely non-functional and had to factory reset it. I use my phone for 2FA to get into my work computer, so this was simply unacceptable.

I realized I wasn’t doing enough with my phone to warrant flagship prices and ended up switching to a Pixel 6a I got on the cheap. Other than having to add wireless charging with an accessory, I haven’t looked back.

Really? Every time I visited the QC sub it seemed like they were finding something to get angry about and always bitching about the comic going down in quality.

Personal data and content you create. So it’s training off of your resume. I put a lot of effort into mine. LinkedIn can compensate me if they want to train a model off of it.

If you have the port and money for it, I’d recommend a separate drive for the second OS. Windows is kinda notorious for stomping over GRUB if you rely on partitions for your dual boot.

If you’re worried about installing to the wrong drive on accident, you can always physically disconnect the existing drive until install is complete, then plug it back in and set the boot order in the mobo config.

When I drive my girlfriend’s SUV, I have to stand outside of it and work the controls until I’ve got enough room to get in. It’s not awful, but does kind of suck on hot summer days when I just want to be in the air conditioning.

Was there some fallout from this video? Or do you just mean the terrible experience she had at the hotel?

Dominated.

Doesn’t always work. I had to do a lot of technical writing for docs that ended in a table for acceptance signatures. I eventually figured out how to drop the blank page at the end, but I’m not 100% convinced I didn’t summon an elder god at some point when I was fiddling with it to get there.

Outer Worlds is way closer to a Fallout spiritual sequel (or beat Starfield to the punch) than an Elder Scrolls game.

Did they ever fix the reputation system? I managed to instantly piss off an entire city while I was in the middle of it because I accumulated one too many “We don’t like you” points in the middle of a quest. Completely ruined my immersion and was a hard stop for me.

To clarify, the FTC is being urged to craft this regulation. They have not recently urged for this regulation. Gotta love the English language.

I also don’t buy his take that the game started development in 2016, this is what was big culturally in 2016, and the team just retreated into a bunker until launch and didn’t have any way to course correct.

That’s not how game development works. I guarantee the headcount for this project didn’t peak in 2016 and stay steady. This was a low-priority item on a few people’s kanban boards for a couple years, probably had multiple starts, dead-ends, and reinventions.

I have to think Sony saw the writing on the wall, pushed the project out the door because they didn’t think it would get any better barring significant reinvestment, and braced for the impact. I credit them just a tiny bit for not writing it off on their taxes and canning the project like Hollywood has been doing lately.

Mostly unrelated, but I was curious what the other series were featured in Secret Level and found this list.

Ooh, Unreal Tournament. I would love it if this generated some buzz and brought Epic back to the Unreal franchise.

Also oof, I thought God of War was getting a whole episode based on the trailer, but it looks like it’s going to be part of a Playstation mix-up. Because who wasn’t dying to see Kratos trade quips with Nathan Drake.

That’s not at all surprising. PvE game design is almost always about making the computer less competent in fun and/or believable ways. If you’ve got a computer that can simulate every item and skill in an enemy team’s arsenal and game out the best combination in milliseconds, the player is going to be dead by Turn 1 or stun-locked and dead by Turn 2.

Yeah, it sucks. I still think we have a better shot at pressuring her to take a harder stance on Israel while in office than Trump, so I’m still gonna vote for her.

Imagine 12 2-liters of soda. It’s a lot.
