Agreed. I feel the same way about cassette tapes. Terrible format; what are you doing?

Nostalgia for pixel art makes sense. It looks good when done well. Anything that happened to look on the Playstation was despite its capabilities, not because of how it rendered things.

I guess people get nostalgia for any and…

But is there a crying baby in an invisible blood maze level?

Yeah, an actually desirable actually cool actually classic car, given to an actual astronaut as part of the famous astronaut car giving? That’s totally worth it.

Yup, his ‘68 with 427 and 4-speed went for $308k last year. That feels right, between the spec, and being an astronaut’s Corvette from the period when he was an active astronaut. Asking damn near as much for a nothing special 4th gen (and I say that as someone who wants a 4th gen, at least at current prices) from when…

I’m sorry what?

“Spit out bland text” is not a very good characterization of the capabilities of these models. They can translate between languages better than purpose-built translations systems, play chess at pretty high level, write code, and while they have some holes in their ability to reason, they most definitely can reason.

been overwhelmingly positive (on social media at least)

Gwar will play ANYWHERE.

Movie releases this week and reviews are still embargoed? That’s highly suspect, and encourages me to skip opening weekend.

I mean, the premise “I’ve been sent to aid in the destruction of a dangerous secret, and oh no it turns out it’s a cute child and I’ve taken it upon myself to protect it” immediately brings to mind The Mandalorian and Star Wars.

Pre-embargo critical reactions are definitely a bit suspect in that regard. They tend to be overly positive.

Those who don’t follow Hollywood closely may find the effusive praise surprising.

Thanks, Father O’Malley.

Toshi Station was notoriously in the Buk-Kaké district.

Uncle Owen won’t allow it in the house. I have to drive all the way to Anchorhead to immerse myself in the thriving jizz scene. 

I still think it’s an important meat and fur resource.

I’m a bit sick of the routine at the cantina. Every night they just throw jizz in your face.

And Canadian History magazine used to be called The Beaver in honor of how beavers were an important meat and fur resource to both the indigenous peoples of Canada and to the European colonizers. But in the Internet era, articles about history aren’t what people expect out of a magazine called that.

Yo, riddle me this. What’s the difference between Sy Snootles, and a dude who breeds Purgil - those giant space mammals they were flying around in in Ahsoka last week?

He’s not saying anything about MS being a hero, and he’s not calling the retail stores bad, he’s saying that AAA publishers were overly reliant on the moat they built of dominating game sales by dominating shelf space in retail stores (which is something game companies pay for), and didn’t figure out how to keep that…
