Also the sheer amount of stuff they print. They are continuously putting out high quality adventures with a storyline that makes sense and doesn’t have giant blank spots that you’re expected to fill in for a few levels. They’re switching to a quarterly hardcover model instead of a monthly adventure next year. The rulebooks are nice and paizo isn’t shy about making new ancestries, classes, and options for existing ones, and they balance the more odd or possibly unbalanced options by making them uncommon or rare such that they require GM approval to take. And a whole bunch of setting books that examine all corners of their world, from over views of whole continents to deep dives into specific cities.

Can’t wait to not need to buy the glass bottle version of coke for the cane sugar and also hopefully have him straight up lose half his base over the Epstein denial! Fingers crossed!

Because conservatives are still salty about Obama receiving the Nobel Peace Prize. We’ve basically forgotten about it, but they think about that all the time.

I think the module I’m using, which could be Kingmaker or any number of other modules, might be gpu accelerated. Idk why exactly, but having the view for my players on the second monitor while mine is on the main causes it to dramatically slow down and freeze within a minute or so, to the point where the browser window doesn’t click and drag. All I really know is that it works on xorg and not on Wayland, and no distro that runs well in this accursed laptop is stable (endeavor OS turned off my Nvidia drivers in an update and ran everything through the amd apu) or comes with an xorg version of the DE (Fedora Bazzite also doesn’t have this, but at least it works otherwise). I transitioned to a purely online game at that time for other reasons, but I was looking longingly at how Windows users don’t have to put up with that bullshit, or at least not nearly as much.

Man, I just want Foundry VTT to work on my second monitor, it used to work but all the distros that moved over to Wayland DEs exclusively mean that I can’t use the thing I want and have the laptop do it’s one job of displaying foundry on my table TV. I guess what I really want is for Nvidia so put out better Wayland drivers.

Alternatively, “Hi, I’m with the fire department and I would like to buy your on-fire house. Take this deal now, because the price is only going down!” But yeah, they probably said fuck this specific fire brigade two thousand years ago lol

I get the blue and green ones (police and military), the red ones are for firefighters, right? To steal a phrase, nobody ever said fuck the fire department.

You can tell from his Elden Ring build.

Her Color 2 for that outfit is trans flag colors. Idk if it was confirmed that she’s trans, but if she is, she’s not the first trans character in Street Fighter.

And also Ubisoft isn’t American, they’re a French company. So instead of Guile we should have Manon.

That’s fine. But also the guy could be handcuffed to a secret service agent or something. It’s not like there aren’t a bunch of buff dudes around the president at all times. The purpose of the exercise would probably be enhanced if the guy didn’t want to die.

An AI (in its current form) isn’t a person drawing inspiration from the world around it, it’s a program made by people with inputs chosen by those people. If those people didn’t ask permission to use other people’s licensed work for their product, then they are plagiarising that work, and they should be subject to the same penalties that, for example, a game company using stolen art in their game should face. An AI doesn’t become inspired, it copies existing things to predict what it thinks its user wants to see. If we produce a real thinking AI at some point in the future, one with self determination and whatnot, the story will be different, but for now it isn’t.

Lightning Returns is above 4! And it’s above the other games in the 13 series! 10 2 is above 10 for some reason! This list is absurd just for those!

Didn’t play 8 9 or 13, or enough of 15 or 16 to have an opinion. 14 isn’t on the original list but it’s at the top)

I work in IT, and every time I do an install (sometimes new computers, sometimes not) for someone I see Microsoft’s little News widget they put on the Taskbar, the one that pops up a huge window if you mouse over it. Every time I see that, I ask the person if they ever use it, and they always say no. Then I ask them if they want it gone, and they always say yes, usually with some kind of relief. It’s a matter of two clicks to do it, easier than going into the settings menu like your screenshot, but every computer I haven’t been on previously has it. Now, I’d wonder why Microsoft would put something on the Taskbar that is, in my experience, universally disliked. To me it reeks of the pathetic, groveling, “I’ll suck your dick” energy they have when someone installs Chrome.

Windows 10 changed a lot over the course of its lifetime, and while some feature are good, like Dark Mode, they’re mostly useless or downright bad. So putting something that most people will never use and will greatly confuse and annoy the average user in a place that has been dedicated to a single function for at the very least Windows 10’s entire lifetime (I think it’s there in 8 and maybe 7 also) for seemingly no reason other than to fuck with people’s muscle memory is just one more move very worthy of griping about, no matter how easy it is for users to turn off. Because 99% of users just won’t, because they aren’t confident enough to go futzing around in the settings. But they’ll still get whatever god awful popup this button shows every time they try to show desktop like they’ve been doing for over a decade. It’s yet another change that nobody asked for, nobody will use, and that the user will have to remember that it’s different now for no reason.

It’s wild how people pretend that the prequels weren’t hated by a bunch of people. Like, the Plinkett Reviews of the prequels were legendary YouTube videos for years before people started ironically memeing the prequels in, like, 2016.

I wish, I think epic helped them with KH3, so they’re just stuck there. I’d just emulate them, everything up to KH3 is very doable on the Steam Deck.

Really makes me think they need a union. Also makes me wonder what all Linus learned from this guy who “taught me everything about management” if this is his style of management.
