Attorneys don’t just file a suit because their client said so: they generally need to be shown there’s an actionable case with a chance if winning

Man, I used to believe that.

The last 8 years have shown me otherwise.

News flash!

This, just in: “Leaders of capitalist meat grinders prepared to lie to keep money flowing and try to pull in more”

I’m shocked.

Oooh, nice interrobang.

My favorite part of control is how they go into juuuuuuust a little bit of explaining how things work in a science way, and sometimes you can almost feel how things are connected, and then it’s like “Yeah we have no fucking clue how any of this actually works, we’re just trying to keep it all from destroying the universe and keeping notes along the way.”

And then you meet the next thing that almost makes sense. Until it doesn’t.

I don’t remember if I ever finished AW but I do believe I have the disk around here somewhere. The control dlc definitely rekindled my interest.

Control was great

I love games that make me think outside the box

“hey let’s release the same thing over and over again, charge almost full game price for it, and whenever something new comes out, just delete everything they’ve already paid for.”

“hey why aren’t people continuing to buy our game…”

Yeah. Great mystery, that one.

Bungie will never get another dollar from me.

Part 1 is the first act

Oh my god I just now got what my sister meant by “the act break is super long” and why my mother replied “lol” in the family group chat.

Same.

I listened to the original Broadway cast so many times I was concerned I wouldn’t like a “cover” of it. After my sister said she liked it, and listening to a song and not finding it objectionable, I had even considered watching it.

This is the first I’ve heard of it being a two parter, so they hid it well. I’m surprised my sister didn’t say anything

Not a chance in hell I’m watching it until part two comes out in physical media so I can watch them both in one go. I hate breaking up the flow, even for a few hours while I wait for the next screening…

surely they’ll follow up with investments into US-produced solar equipment to boost the economy and bring prices down to competitive levels, right?

… Right?

… And?

Why do we give a shit?

Why is this newsworthy?

Are we going to hear about his time working in retail soon? I’m sure it will provide deep insight to find out which store he worked at for 3 months, 8 years ago. clearly that’s relevant information.

I see their junk at every thrift store and flea market in Ohio.

I legitimately thought they went out of business.

I think after years and years of 3d games, I just don’t like 2d anymore.

I’ve become institutionalized by a third dimension…

I don’t even enjoy Castlevania anymore and those games were my jam back in the day.

I never could get into terraria, but some days I want to buy it just to support a good developer.

Fun fact! To make a super duper effective cleaning solution, all you have to do is mix ammonia and bleach! Make sure you do it in a small enclosed, dark room in order to ensure the solution binds together properly.

Big Cleaning doesn’t want you to know this because it cuts into their profits when people realize everyday chemicals can be combined to make better soaps and sprays than they sell.

I actually hadn’t heard of this movie yet. I try not to keep up with movies and games so I’m not too disappointed by over-hyped content.

I got a little excited at just the title, and as soon as I saw “Ares (Jared Leto)” all desire to watch it went out the window, my insides dropped a little, and the Tron Legacy is now derezzed. Pun entirely intended.

Yes, someone would have. Eventually.

But valve did it early.

It’s easy to fill a niche once it’s formed. Not so easy to do before, or as it’s forming. Or predict if one will form.

I’m not saying valve or Gabe had some kind of foresight or wisdom, I still think it was a gamble. It just happens to be a gamble that worked.

My 4 month old laptop has hdmi on the back, ethernet on the left, four usb 3.whatever slots with two on each side, two USB c slots on the right side, and a microsd slot.

I think it even has a 3.5mm headset jack but I’d have to get out of bed to check. I don’t have any peripherals that use 3.5mm anymore though so it’s just a nice little bonus.

I mean… It was a gamble. Internet was still young. Speeds weren’t keeping up with game sizes outside a few major cities. I was mailed a few large files because it was quicker than downloading them. Not to mention the desire for physical copies over a digital thing you can lose with a bad hard drive was at an all time high.

Then people realized the internet wasn’t just nerd shit, ISPs slowly ramped up their DL speeds and suddenly the thing people mocked for not being feasible is doing well because of how convenient it became.

Gabe even admits he had doubts for awhile.

I wonder where gaming would be if he had listened to the doubters. There’s no denying valve has had a major impact on modern gaming

Having done exactly 0 research, I going to assume it’s one of those “DO NOT PRESS OKAY UNLESS YOU ARE EXPERIENCED AND KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING” and someone went “pffft I know what I’m doing. click now what does this option do…”

Idk how hard water coding is, but I imagine it’s hard since good looking water seems rare.

That is some damn fine looking water

Excellent shots.
