"Look Outside" could be the new "The Game" and an enormous amount of people haven't yet realized they lost.

So that GTA VI delay is cause they fired all those people for trying to unionize, right?

Who knew a video about Kirby's nihilistic apocalypse would get me thinking I should embrace hedonism.

Haven't even broken the damage limit yet, wherever that is, but I've already pretty much broken Expedition 33, minus one single superboss (G).
Think I should probably go ahead and advance the story - nowhere else to go minus scrounging for expedition journals, I think?

Finally defeated Sprong. Got back to halfway through G but I dunno if I'm ready to spend 30-40 minutes just to get to the moves I gotta practice parrying, and only get like 3-4 attempts.

Really, really gross and disappointing. 🤢
I asked Microsoft PR about this—specially the DHS using Halo IP to recruit for ICE—and the company declined to comment.

Got a bit beyond halfway to beating Sprong in Expedition 33 and I'm thinking it's actually easier to do it solo, with the right pictos.
Still no idea when I'll end up being able to break the damage limit, but I can do 80,000 damage every other turn, so that's something.
Got G to 50% too.

Is it possible to configure VLC to have actual shuffled playback instead of random? Otherwise it has a good chance of repeating before finishing the playlist.

Same shit happens with ADHD. Like, excuse me for understanding A begets B, and then B begets C so stop telling me I'm losing focus when I'm stressing that we cannot skip B.
Y'all fixated on the end product but there's a huge ass hurdle in the way, this is not me going off track B IS REQUIRED FOR C

One of the things I've noticed while working on AAA is the lack of ability to make the distinction between fun and addictive, and so much of it is due to overreliance on analytics and not understanding Goodhart's Law.
They focus on engagement without paying mind to satisfaction or fulfilment.

Removing the monetization aspect of gambling / corrosive F2P mechanics / etc doesn't actually address the harm those types of games do, and the resultant "dopamine games" being the default engagement of choice for wide swaths of the populace is a condemnation of our way of life
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

I'm still upset that ThinkGeek sent me a large cupcake fridge magnet instead of the fake nacho cheese dispenser fridge magnet I actually ordered, including sending me another cupcake magnet after I contacted customer support.

I finally gathered the courage to call my ISP about that new modem they're offering and apparently I'm eligible for 1gb/1gb service (up from 300mb down/20mb up). Finally some good fucking news.
New modem should arrive in less than a week.
