I cannot figure out how to steer the car in a sane way in Cyberpunk 2077. It feels like any tiny movement I do and the car just fishtails. Really maddening when they want me to do a car race side quest.

as you dig through coverage of the Netflix Warner Bros merger, play a little game with me:

notice how many of them mention, at ALL, the two decade history of disastrous previous Time Warner mergers, and the massive layoffs, price hikes, and quality erosion that resulted

I’ve been playing Cyberpunk 2077 again the last couple of weeks, and now I’ve realized I’m at the end of the main story, so I’m just doing all of the side quests so it doesn’t end.

I still haven’t done Phantom Liberty, so I guess there’s no reason to fear the end, since I have a whole DLC.

Remembering Julee Cruise, born this day in 1956 who collaborated so memorably with Angelo Badalamenti and David Lynch, including her single "Falling" in Twin Peaks.

last week i remembered that macOS lets you set your own icons and that *I* have the power to delegitimize the professionalism of the software that runs on my machine, so here's a thread of the 16 new icons i've made so far

i really forgot how fun it was to just sit down and make art for myself :')

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

star trek is about a utopian vision of the future bordering on fantasy where people someday will be able to make good choices about complicated problems by talking to each other and involving people who know about things
The thing about Star Trek is that the majority of it has the crew spending most of the episode trying to figure out, through arguing and investigating, what's the right thing to do in a complicated situation and I don't think any shows do that now? Like in a Very Special Episode but not all the time
