Maybe if anyone involved during the Kurtzman era, actually watched the shows and movies first, and had good writing skills things would have gone different. This show is insulting to Start Trek.

You want to say fuck you to somebody, say to the people who greenlit this crap. Kurtzman should have been removed a long time ago. Stop throwing a tantrum.

I don’t know that even matters much, most of these contracts tend to have a clause they can change the contract at anytime and they may or may not notify you.

Yes. Now if you used Gentoo btw, then no.

This is an idea that should be shelved for a good 20-30 years, honestly.

We’d need global collaboration to come up with a universal standard applied to all cars (regardless of price). If it can’t be a standard, then it’s a bullshit idea. Competing standards and companies simply means abandoned tech everywhere and everything, thinking their tech is best, nothing works together, issues across the board, and high cost to customers.

No you just rebrand it a built-in crematorium.

The number of times I’ve seen people get out of the shitter and just head back to work, is disgustingly too damn high. I used to bring sanitary wipes with to clean every door handle. Now I work from home thankfully.

It would be cheaper and a better experience to just drop acid and play the game.

Even if I opened the hardware, I wouldn’t use it. I want what the artist intended, not what some AI slops together. That goes for games, movies, books, paintings, etc. I’m not paying for AI, it brings no value to me. I didn’t care if it’s a filter, or something generated from a prompt.

I was never a fan of his. I respected his martial art abilities. But I loved the Barrens chat and all the Chuck Norris jokes. God damn I loved those jokes.

What OS do you use?

Yes.

How is that “in a way”? What you described is a normal video game iteration process, but also on new hardware (and probably an engine change). DQB2 and Pokopia were both done Omega Force (the folks who make all the Warrior games), with Takuto Edagawa as the director.

It’s just mostly just a reskin of Dragon Quest Builders. Pokopia is Builders 3.

They used an animal crossing menu UI. Removed the combat. Added pokemon. Exact same story and mechanics.

Nearly every place. Apparently we lived in a place for a few months when I was first born.

Freaked out part of my family when I drew a map of the first house I remember. I think they finally figured out that children do remember things… And a lot of the shit I was put through I might remember

High traffic area, common product that sees a lot of people. You could get 2-3 in a trip without much worry. Do it every few visits. Get a few additional people to do it with the same plan. If you notice more security, just move on, force them to give up or water a bunch of money. Leave reviews of the store how you don’t like the extra security/cameras. Your a customer not a criminal! Call out the management…

You don’t have to win in a day, but an expensive, annoying, psychological warfare approach… That and going after them on social media.

Oh goodie! I mean, Windows 11 was hand-coded. Disgusting! Windows 12 will bring the vibes! It’ll be the most vibe coded OS! (And probably the last when it tanks.) Think about it, AI is monitoring every action you do! Reporting to all it’s masters and their business partners everything you do! Oh all the ads they’ll send you, all the subscriptions they’ll sell! Of course, it’ll be always online else it can’t fully use the datacenters.

I’m being mostly sarcastic (any “excitement” for it). I mean, it’s probably going to have the worst performance since AI will be monitoring EVERYTHING and I really do expect it to be coded via prompts instead of talent. Microsoft and NVIDIA are already having massive issues with everything due to “AI” being used and they started with a working based code. 11 adoption was already bad and they made sure people knew 10 was dying so they could push the numbers… I don’t recall any previous version of Windows getting that treatment.

The problem is there’s not going to be one universal answer and that’s what a lot of people are trying to give.

No one here has enough information to truly give feedback. No one here knows you, no one here knows your boyfriend, and no one here knows your male friend.

Everyone here, and everyone anywhere else is giving advice based on their own personal anecdotes or fiction.

The problem that you will face is navigating all of this until all players through faces/intentions are revealed. And that includes your own.

I think I personally seen every possible combination this could play out. I don’t think there’s any statistic I could give you, I don’t think there’s any advice I could give you. Because until everyone plays their cards you really just don’t know. What little advice I can give, Don’t try to figure out everyone else’s hand and play your own how you want it to play out. I eat if you want your boyfriend your boyfriend and your male friend to be just a friend play towards that, make sure those boundaries are very distinct. Be truthful to yourself, and be truthful others.

BG3. Never played the first two, and I find some games like that have bad writing (like every bit of dialog feeling like it’s overstaying it’s welcome, being way to chatty and/or dull). I think I saw Cohh playing it (pretty sure that was my introduction to him) and I was blown away by the early access writing and mechanics. I bought the early access right away and was enthralled in it’s writing, the plot, the dynamic choices based on class, race, or deity choice, and the music. There used to be a lady sitting next to the waterfall in the grove that had a whole sob story and a music box. Seeing the thralls on the nautiloid and the implications of what it all meant… I was really sad the release was so different. Still very good, but wasn’t as good. But as it stands it is one of the few games I’ve actually completed, and I think it’s the only game I’ve actually completed multiple times. Needless to say I’m very looking forward to Divinity.

Then Expedition 33. When I first saw gameplay I really thought it was just another Persona clone. I thought that due to the menu layout in combat. Day it released, saw some gameplay and decided to take a risk and bought it. Before I even left for the expedition… I already told my friends it was GOTY, it just dethroned KCD2.

My guess for the only difference is that it’s locked to Azure

Yep, just looking at it screams thin client. This will have just enough for networking (wifi/bluetooth), running three monitors (no gaming), some 3.5mm audio, and usb 2.0. If it’s business focues, probably some remote mgmt stuff, and maybe a default VPN client.

I already wasn’t eating BK. And this makes me want to even less. The fake/forced “friendliness” I personally find off-putting. It’s like Chick-fil-a they have to say “my pleasure”. Just some force creepy cult vibes (for some very mediocre food). Idk, maybe it’s me, but knowing someone is being micro-enslaved (sorry, “managed”) just rubs me the very wrong way.

Plus side, my hatred for AI and all these places forcing it on customers, I’ve spent WAY less money eating out and have been eating way better. So silver lining I suppose.
