“However, if the goal is to minimize a source of dining room disruption, why not ask patrons to leave rather than waiting until the end of the meal to enact a surcharge? Why devise a punishment rather than a more immediate solution?”

Yep this bothered me too. Bricked is firmware level dead. Microsoft would have a class action lawsuit over that. What they’re actually doing is just not accepting third party accessories as input devices... not bricking hardware.

To be a bit pedantic, the devices aren’t “bricked”. They would work on systems without the update, or on the PC.

Google says otherwise, because words can have multiple meanings, so...

I wonder what she even does?

It sounds like Netflix wanted an excuse to terminate the contract and then realized that they didn’t have the rights to the bible that parts of the sequel film/game now rely on.

Modding has a long tradition of being free. Mainly because it’s typically derivative work that can be legally distributed only with the permission of the owners of the actual game. Because of this, modders who try to charge for their work tend to get huge blowback (and, in some cases get themselves a nice cease and…

Good luck with that kind of plea for reasonable behavior here! Gotta shill for all the garbage, not just the Jebus chicken bigots.

So tired of most screenshots being of the author’s avatar that always looks the same in every game. Let’s see some screenshots of stuff in the game world that’s the same for everyone, rather than narcissistic recreation of the author.

AI voices are getting very good and they’re definitely good enough for side characters. It’s only a matter of time, probably a few years max, before AI voices are indistinguishable enough to use for main characters without anyone even knowing. AI is the future and companies can save a ton of money by having a computer…

It might not be able to do large full roles yet but I would say it could at least be done in minor roles of NPCs and a large portion of the general filler voices that only have a handful of lines. But it’s also probably not far away from being more advanced. Especially since every production company on the planet is…

Grant Gustin is the one that would have made the most sense. I know he might not be that known to general cinema audiences, but definitely more so than the fact that Nick Cage was nearly Superman and would have fought a giant spider. Gustin played Barry for a decade and it would have been a nice counterpoint to…

Why did I think Aquaman 2 already released?

I’m not a vegan, but I’ve been one. It didn’t stick because it was hard and excessive to a point in expense and effort that I’m not willing to deal with. I’ve been a vegetarian for nearly 3 decades, though, and the reason why I am one is pretty simple: I don’t want to kill a creature to eat because I don’t have to…

Couple of reasons:

I thought this was going to be a serious (or at least semi-serious) article about Dominion and just ended up disappointed.

Not to pick nits, but the headline says “taste better than ice cream”, and then you compare the products based on how close they come to tasting like ice cream.

They still have to bring back the deli mustard, the combo slice, and god-willing the polish dog.

Good for the drivers (if Lyft & Uber are bluffing), but that’s a really shitty headline. It’s millions of $$, not 51 cents.

I can’t disagree with this ranking.  Though I’d probably put Birds of Prey a little higher.  Probably the most fun I’ve had with a modern DC movie apart from Shazam!
