I’ve outgrown trying to classify music down to a sub-genre but I can certainly believe there is a current version of myself who knows exactly what the genre is called without tossing it in the Pop or Rap category.
The person who introduced his work to me also watches Ru Paul’s Drag Race with me on weekends, I am blown…

I knew nothing of Lil Nas X and was recently introduced to Montero; it’s a work of art for music videos. I’ve taken up to looking further, there is some awesome stuff overall on these videos. Not my genre of music but I still liked every bit of what I’ve seen so far.

I’ve been getting bricks of the Beyond Meat plant based ‘meat’ and it has been phenomenal for sautéed mushrooms and swiss burgers. I have noticed that they soak up way too much butter (im not vegetarian, just reducing meat to 3 days per week) before I get the paddy in the pan. I’ll try this out, I feel like I am…

I’m paying utilities for the first time this year as most of the time it was covered in my rent and handled by the landlord. I was pretty surprised when I got a final notice of disconnection within a day of missing my first payment. Not sure if this had to do with the previous tenant but I was just waiting for the…

I wear shoes basically all day unless in the home of another person. Slippers are awful on my feet and generally need arch support. I do however have a pair of “indoor only” shoes. On the other hand I grew up in a family owned clothing factory, lived there, and it was generally hazardous to not wear shoes. Most of the…

I can’t believe the comparison was not made in the article. Nothing like a little single player Carcassone experience for the sake of making something pretty.

Yes, they need to be more specific to the designation of processed. You can get tons of nitrate/nitrite in most bacon, sausages, jerky, and less likely to see it used in frozen chicken strips. “Processed”is such a vague term, heck I can make processed cheese wiz at home with some pretty basic ingredients and a blender.

This happened to my family when I was a teen on the peak of us trying to claw out of post-bankruptcy. The one item we had left was an ‘84 BMW 318i, it sat in a designated parking spot, and at that moment in time was not running (fuel pumps, who woulda though!?) and we couldn’t afford to get it fixed just yet.
Prior to…

This looks like a funny way to identify new UV’s for when they likely cut off the top from the original model to keep them identical, and had to append a new UV set for the chopped version. If they used the same texture set for both, just seeing that UV’s were aligned over that part of the image would let know which…

Even if this required a very high-end machine, I’m still jealous because in order to get this in a non-game-engine animation pipeline we are looking at 20minutes per frame to render, not 30-60 frames per second. I’m sure there are newer tools out there but studios aren’t just buying up top of the line method for every…

I first learned of this when I had noticed that the flag was backwards on one arm of marines in video games, and had at first assumed it was a really lazy texture flopping technique so that you only texture one half. Being not American I had not known it was actually supposed to be like that.

Im getting a heeaaavy Stellaris vibe out of this, but with a touch of lore from the Battletech universe, sans mechs. Heck the art for this trailer looks like the opener of Battletech, that fantastic turn-based strategy game that plays very much like the actual tabletop game does.

They essentially say yes or no to things, organize, budget, and negotiate with client/publishers. There is very little hands-on to the actual game other than review process. I’m more accustomed to 3d animation industry but it’s quite similar on the structure in a lot of ways. It is by no means similar to a music…

Yeah we got some of the barnacles but one guy didn’t survive hahahaha. We managed to salvage his stuff back onto the boat but it was a pretty wacky situation.

Never has my steam friends list had so many people on the same game simultaneously.
Often I think I want to play solo and feel harassed by friends who all want me to join their server, leaving me torn between several worlds. Then every time I join any of them it’s a great time. Every outing is eventful, from finishing…

I’ve only heard of this game by name-drop and this kotaku piece is my first look, I had to go and dive a little deeper and ask around after. I like a lot of survival games, and hate a larger portion of them.
This really looks like it is filling the gap between the two bias that these games tend to lean strongly…

Non-mo-cap. Totally keyed animation with either little experience or painful to use tools. Animators were not very common in that era, and even in 2008 we were still finding out all the horrible mistakes in natural motion that were acceptable at the time.

I was pretty sure in my teens that I would be fully tattooed by age 25, but also knew I get sick of things fast and also got over a phase of wanting one for the sake of wanting one, and never coming up with anything particularly special. So still to this day I am completely bare.

Remember when All Points Bulletin promoted their character creator system by having a staff member volunteer to get done up like his character? Basically got really stereotypical piercings and a full freaking back tattoo of angel wings.
The piercings and mohawk, sure, fine and it’s completely undoable, but reserving…

It really is the female operator version of every generic unshaven white male lead character and I’m not sure how we went years without calling that stealing/unoriginal. I start to roll my eyes when I have to answer yes to “does the main character vaguely resemble me and about 100 other people I know to hit a target…
