I missed the Best Buy release (didn’t hear the Twitter notification at 1:30 am), but I wake up at 5:00 am anyway and saw the Amazon notification at 4:47 am and was able to get an order in and got a confirmation email. So the Amazon listing was available for at least 13 minutes, if that is any consolation. The Amazon

I have the Proteus Spectrum and enjoy it quite a bit. Don’t really use many of the mappable buttons, but it works admirably in WoW and Overwatch, among other games, and the Logitech software is unoffenaive (pretty similar to the Corsair and Asus Aura software suites).

For those who can get past the paywall, this is a great primer on epigenetics:

Obviously they are completely different films, but how does it stack up against Your Name?

Sounds a lot like Crackdown meets Overwatch.

Hey Claire, my wife loved the shoes you were wearing during the “reading a book on a bench while the pig head roll is sous vide-ing” scene. Mind if I ask what the brand/style is? Thanks!

This track is adapted from a piece by Carl Orff titled Gassenhauer nach Hans Neusiedler (1536) that prominently featured in the 1973 film Badlands.

I’m obviously not the target market for these toys (though I am an amiibo collector), but the pricing strcuture on these toys seems a little insane. The $70 initial buy-in is somewhat understandable since you are basically getting the game included (though since it is free to play, this is less clear), but $10-15 for

Yeah, I randomly stopped by my local BestBuy on a whim to see if the reports of the Majora amiibo restocks were true (they were, but I got there too late), and one of the employees told me they were getting more Switches in today.

Awesome guys, been really looking forward to this. Can’t wait to listen to it.

I just got the email myself. Was hoping that I had gotten my order in early enough that I wouldn’t be hit by the cancellations, but apparently no such luck.

I liked it better when no one knew about Mondo. It was already a pain in the ass to buy one of their posters from their website several years ago. Now that they are becoming more and more popular and getting more media coverage, it’s almost impossible to get an order in during the 30 seconds before they are sold out

To be far, &pizza is a chain. A local chain, but a chain nonetheless. It even won “Most Popular Pizza Chain in DC” from Business Insider in 2016.

I was up at 11:45 playing Disgaea 5 Complete when I got the Twitter notification from the watcher accounts I follow saying they were available. Haven’t gotten an email saying my order was cancelled, so far so good right now.

That organisms are able to develop resistance to gene drives isn’t really that surprising. It is literally an example of natural selection at work. As with antibiotics and anti-retrovirals (a simplified analogy to be sure) if you rely on a monotherapy, the organism that you are targeting will most likely eventually

Two questions: is the Persona 5 spoilercast still coming at some point, and from playing the beta do you think Destiny 2 is more of a sequel to Destiny versus Splatoon 2 and Splatoon? Mark MacDonald on the 8-4 Play podcast was giving Splatoon 2 so much shit for, what seemed at the time, to be a glorified 1.5.

Is Pearl supposed to look angry constantly? I watched the results video and she looked pissed throughout the entire thing.

Up to a certain point, the easy answer is yes. From my understanding, WoW is CPU bottlenecked beyond what a GTX 1080 can hit. I have WoW set to preset 10 in world and raid and get FPS from anywhere from 50-130, depending on where I am and what is happening. Once you start messing with render scale, even the 1080

I don’t want to imply that all of these fan game creators are stupid, but at a certain point, how can a person look at Nintendo’s track history of jealously guarding and protecting their IP, and think “it won’t happen to me, I’ll be the exception.” I’m not even sorry for these people at this point; it’s an exercise
