Professional silly little guy and old man. I stream on twitch @ https://www.twitch.tv/flappywheres and have terrible opinions on things.

Kind of hard to boil this down to JUST 9 formative books as my avarice for reading has always been unquenchable. But these 9 are all books (well two are plays) I encountered at different stages in my life that impacted me.

the castle, the stranger, 100 years of solitude, slaughterhouse-five, the haunting of hill house, moby dick, murder on the orient express, the count of monte cristo, and frankenstein BAYBEYYY

United States President Donald Trump issues executive order instructing federal government agencies to "use the terms 'Super Intelligence' and 'SI' in place of 'Artificial Intelligence' and 'AI' and will not acknowledge the usage of 'Artificial Intelligence' and 'AI' in any applicable setting."

I love Morrowind loading screens because it'll show you a picture of a worm warrior and it'll say "People don't like it when you talk to them with your weapon drawn"

Final Fantasy 7 Revelation will let players automatically raise their character’s level at points, Naoki Hamaguchi says. The option is aimed at players who just want to ignore the side content and play the main story, but are underpowered as a result. www.videogameschronicle.com/news/final-f...

Theres a reason this is typically a feature in NG+ environments rather than a first time playthrough, and thats because in a NG+ environment you generally have more narrow goals you intend to accomplish such as getting extra endings or knocking out alternate routes.

Like, if the fear here is the devs thinking the side content is to long or meadering, then just don't include it, or just tighten up the content? I doubt anyone will be upset if the 120 hour JRPG is 90 hours.

I am generally all for accessibility features or ways to make games less esoteric, but giving rewards for explicitly ignoring parts of the game (side content) seems largely antithetical to having those parts in the game in the first place.

The actual audacity of R* to capriciously fire union members after spying on a union space then crying hypocritically that they're "just trying to protect from leaks". No wonder they can't keep anything secret with how much genuine contempt they have for their workforce.

Chris Kerr@kerrblimey.bsky.social

Okay! Here’s the opening statement provided by the fired Rockstar workers. Key points: -There was allegedly a ‘mole’ in the union Discord server for over a year who funnelled info back to R* -It’s claimed R* only acted shortly after union members passed the 10% threshold for statutory recognition

Tapping my sign especially hard now, not that I’d ever want another Zelda game with this remake’s visual direction ever again.

Ultima@ultimashadow.bsky.social

Seeing people cheer on a potential Ocarina of Time remake is so indicative of the current culture. “Ocarina of Time 3D was over 15 years ago, we’re due for a remake.” Just make it more available, we have 3DS ports on Switch already! The resources spent on a remake could be for something original.

Don't give them an inch. Opt out, tell everyone you know to opt out. There is so much amazing creativity and innovation in streaming, and it belongs to us, not to companies trying to steal our work and take all the credit for themselves.

Looking at other responses I'm kind of shocked how much people water down their coffee tbh, less so shocked by the toast and steak as those all follow popular consensus it seems.
