The only part that doesn’t hold up - and to be fair, was ridiculous at the time, even given the subject matter - is the hacking scene.

Man if only that principal had had your imagination/sass.

Yeah, but we got the reference.

I hear that the long-term contract he had to sign says he’ll be making these movies ‘til the end of time.

Double-fuck the Salinas woman for saying on her complaint that the author of Gorman’s poem was Oprah Winfrey. I still can’t get over it. Apparently, for the righties, there can only be one famous black woman in the public sphere, and no matter what she calls herself, she’s Oprah Winfrey. These people are dumb as…

I regret that I have only one star to give...

It’s British slang for a paedophile, as the article says. There’s a story about it originally being an acronym used at a prison - Not On Normal Courtyard Exercise, used for prisoners that wouldn’t be allowed out with the other cons because they’d get beaten up (being a paedophile is the lowest rung on the UK prison…

Although the TB-303 may not have been the robotic bass player desired by one-person-bands, it’s easily one of the most sought after and recurring synths in electronic music setups. It’s been remade countless times by small companies, Roland (albeit non-analog versions), and now by Behringer (which is analog). So yeah,…

I suppose to be fair, we only have Mullvad’s word on this. If the Swedish police confirm the story, then we know it’s true. 

Easiest way to do a sequel would be to just grab a movie that already exists and replace the main characters with Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Toad.

It’s not a new concept, you look at arena soccer, beach soccer, volta. Pique just embracing media streaming and yes changing/adding calvinball rules.

It’s General Zod, but it’s not that Specific Zod.

Having played a bit more of it, I will say, Wo Long is definitely approachable enough to warrant a word about it. The game will foist 2 AI companions on you that can do a good deal of the heavy lifting on their own, and the morale system really lets you go super saiyan before fighting any tougher enemies. It’s still a…

Great review. And I know what you mean, and you kind of touched on it, but accessibility advocates tend to bristle a bit at the way you’ve used “accessibility” throughout the piece. I think “approachability” is the preferred term for what you’re describing, since a game that is more forgiving to play but still does…

In fairness, their plans have little chance of seceding

Lol, shut the fuck up. If you hate trans people for simply existing, that isn’t a nuanced opinion, that is fascist bullshit. 

If you forget where you put your gun, you shouldn’t have a gun. 

(ducks to dodge rock)

On its face, there’s nothing inherently wrong with the word “females”, but these people ALWAYS refer to men as “men” and never “males”, but refer to women more often as “females”. If I see the word females, I immediately looks for the word males. It’s never there for these people. 

I’m not colorblind myself but I suspect that there’s something of a spectrum because a lot of these newer colors seem very hard to distinguish (likely because manufacturers trying to make everything as close to white-black-gray as possible). So just end up having to ask and maybe then searching for pictures/videos of…
