Pirate Yakuza In Hawaii is the End.
YouTube video by GC Vazquez

Like A Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii is the End. Not necessarily of the franchise, but certainly of its recognized identity. It's a celebration of classic Yakuza / LaD design philosophies- but it may also be a farewell to them as well. [Signal boosts of all kinds appreciated!]

Keep seeing bad takes on my timeline, and so it is time to sleep, because I'm the one with the problem and the problem is that I'm tired and cranky.

Maybe I shouldn't shit where I eat though. I think the murphy bed designs are fucking god awful, but I'm also the guy who's having an intense romantic affair with the Fjallbo line of IKEA furniture, and I know most people think this shit is ugly as sin.

I'm looking into getting a murphy bed frame, and growing very annoyed that murphy bed designers have awful taste, but I do think it's fun that the couch on this one design turns into a cuck chair when the bed is down.

I had a funny for this one, but I realized this just fucking sucks.
Sega says it will start implementing efficient development methods, including the use of AI.
However, because it knows AI use "faces strong resistance in creative areas", it pledges to only use it in "appropriate use cases".

I bought a big industrial travel case for my Switch 2, but I didn't buy a regular one for less long-term travel. I don't wanna drive out to get one, so I guess I'm taking my Steam Deck instead.

I figured people already realized but I'm not streaming today! I've got a plane to catch tomorrow, so I'm spending the day getting ready and just vegging out so I can get to bed at a reasonable hour.

More than 2,500 Starbucks workers are on strike. They’re demanding dignity: fair pay, safe conditions, a contract that respects their labor.
It’s time their voices are heard at the same volume as CEOs earning millions.

I HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend you pick up the original Yakuza 0 in some way shape or fashion. I don't know if the digital version is going to get a forced update into the Director's Cut, but I'm hoping the talented mod community for these games makes a patch that removes the Director's Cut changes.
Yakuza 0 is $10.99 on Steam (last chance to grab before December 8 delisting) buff.ly/ISTbotI
Yakuza 0-Yakuza 6 PS4 bundle $78 at VGP buff.ly/4IJkhNI
Yakuza 0 already removed from nearly all authorized Steam code stores (except Humble)

So it *is* end to end encrypted. It's just that the other end is their servers. But marketers have learned that the layman (and tech people who don't actually know anything) hear "encryption" and assume security/privacy of their data. And it is! On the way to the company server, anyway.
NEW: Your "end-to-end encrypted" poop pictures taken by this $599 (+ subscription) smart toilet camera are actually not end-to-end encrypted.

I was interested in the youtube recap, but it's pretty obviously just throwing some ChatGPT garbage ass summary of things at me. "We gave you the 'Most likely to build a gaming computer rocketship out of LEGOs' award!"

Fuck misinformation spreaders. Fuck people trying to shut daring art down. Fuck everyone who equates nudity with sex. All of it. Let art be out there. Let art be art. But to do that, people have to be allowed to say "I can't handle this right now" and not be thrown to the wolves for it.

Adult art calls for adult responses, and tbh that includes an awareness that some personal discomfort/wariness for challenging pieces may stem from irl experience with traumas explored in the material, not pearl-clutching prudishness.
(Of course this discomfort should never mutate into censorship)
