The theoretically vast availability has made me quick to abandon games that didn’t deserve it. I’m having a lot of difficulty committing to even some objectively good games. I don’t enjoy the bouncing around and yet I keep doing it. It feels related to FOMO.

On top of that, I have personally developed some gaming habits that I don’t care for at all as a direct result of gamepass.

Agreed

We watched this exact same tactic happen with Xbox gamepass over the last 5 years. They introduced it and left in the capability to purchase the “upgrade” for $1/year. Now they are suddenly cranking it up to $30/month and people are still paying it because they feel like it’s a service they “have to have”.

If anyone is looking to try something new - I really enjoyed WaterfallNiagra after dropping Nova.

Sounds like some of you need to get hacked back in time!

The likeness is uncanny.

I have only seen a handful of YouTube shorts with this man and I respect his opinion orders of magnitude more than I do Musk’s.

I had a very concerning conversation with an individual I respect very much, yesterday. He is actively striving to remain unflustered by all of this by underplaying the significance of what is happening. He thinks Trump is just being a blowhard and will be stopped short of economic stability collapsing. He didn’t have a response when I asked if maybe that was too late to act.

The idea that the core of Dallas is walkable is hilarious. There are portions of DFW that have been specifically curated to be walkable, but they’re usually akin to a theme park. You drive there, park in a giant parking lot (or worse, just endless strips of store front parking), then walk around what is effectively an outdoor shopping mall.

Listen, maybe I’m jaded, but this just feels like one more lame-ass attempt to cram more propaganda about the “efficiency of big business” down our throats.

It is astonishing how soundly you missed what the original comment was trying to say. They very clearly meant [The picture of] Andrew Tate [getting his ass handed to him] is funny.

…Or you could continue to be outraged about your mistaken interpretation.

I disagree. Public humiliation is likely the only thing that could hurt either of these festering polyps in the eyes of their base.

This is dumb and the amount of people upvoting is a perfect demonstration of why we got a second Trump administration.

Obviously not. His name was Journeyman.

Best part of Traveller is character creation.

Huh, TIL.

Immediately thought of this because of It’s Just Cinema’s series on weird 70/80/90s animated films.

Bieber’s first album didn’t release until 2010. This look was just fairly ubiquitous among teens and 20s hearthrobs in the 2000s. Note the boot cut jeans that you would never catch Bieber wearing.

I think you’re overestimating the degree to which the majority of users are willing to inconvenience themselves over a browser. If Microsoft announced tomorrow that Windows no longer supported any browser other than edge you wouldn’t see a mass migration to Linux. Instead you would see a healthy uptick in complaints about edge.
