I mean, just goes to show that Prankster is just a basically-OP ability no matter the Pokemon. The only criteria if you want to roll with it is considering if there’s a better pokemon with the same exact ability, lol.

Though, I mean, I love it when a pachirisu-type breaks out and makes it big in competitive. But not FEA…

Kinda makes Mario feel like a vehicle for the viewer as opposed to the hero of his own movie, meaning it doesn’t really add character. Granted, maybe that’s the way it should be, because I *personally* felt an appropriate amount of anxiety at the prospect of missing some of the platforming jumps in the clip.

Kinda curious what “instructions” an AI would give itself.

Is this an agenda because a Gay Teen exists in the movie? Or that a Black Male is one of the leading characters in a Disney movie?

Rather, is it an agenda because this stuff isn’t normal and boring yet?

I’m vehemently socially progressive, but I’m not gonna watch this movie because I’m not into sci-fi movies where the…

NGL, I’d normally take an anti-merger stance, but I want Activision-Blizzard to be eaten and absorbed.

Hopefully it’ll clean out the current leadership direction, and free up some of the Blizzard IPs to actually create stuff. [Warcraft, Starcraft especially.]

Nitpick:

Bisharp getting a new evolution means that he can now effectively utilize Eviolite, which is a held item that greatly boosts the offensive *defensive* abilities of Pokémon that are not fully evolved.

Eviolite boosts def and Sp. Def by 50% for not-fully-evolved Pokemon.
An offensive eviolite would be completely…

Disagree with ‘literally’ vs. ‘figuratively’ in sort-of a prescriptivist sense.

Obviously, usage is usage, but I think the encompassing of ideas using words should naturally expand over time, or, at least, persist in function. In that sense, there are very few adequate substitutes for the original usage of ‘literally’.…

For those with that strange proclivity towards logistics and organization games, i.e. Factorio, Satisfactory, maybe-Rimword, various railroad games, etc.
I, for one, have been obsessed with Dyson Sphere Program for PC, and YOU CAN, TOO!

I think the main takeaway I get from the trial is that

A.) People just love tabloid shit. Basically no one knew who Amber Heard was until this trial and other peoples’ drama should be other peoples’ drama.

B.) You’re not a misogynist if you take sides against Amber Heard, but the misogynists among us will take the…

I strongly agree with this take, as someone who enjoyed the single player campaign, and is a noob at multiplayer [but still plays it regularly].

More to the point, I think it’s meaningful that they say they’re trying to lessen crunch [taken with a grain of salt], but that statement seems supported a little by the delay…

I mean, I’ve been playing Halo since the first Xbox, and I [along with more than a few reviewers] think that the Halo infinite single player was one of the better single-player experiences in the franchise. I definitely think it’s one of my favorite single player modern fps games.

As for the multiplayer, I’ve been…

Might just be me, but I found the Halo Infinite single-player to be perfectly serviceable, so I don’t really see how Infinite doesn’t qualify as a “good single player game with some optional multiplayer” esp considering the latter is free.

I think it’s a lot easier to rationalize one way or another when it’s being packaged and sold as a commodity, whether in the form of emotes or otherwise.

Words are derivative, so is film, and even music, but the second we realize that we can package and sell it, then copyright kicks in if we can trace the creative…

Tips:

- Levels are good, weapon upgrades are better. Find a weapon and stick with it, upgrading it unless you find a more-worthy one to upgrade. Special weapons using somber smithing stones are more-straightforward to upgrade, as they only need 10 steps to reach the very end. Upgrade your staff/seal, as well.
For what…

I don’t think I’ve read a non-partisan analysis that supports this view. Happy to read otherwise if you can link me.

I feel like this article doesn’t reflect the full picture.

The Biden administration fought in court in order to NOT to have to do this and lost.

Ideally, you want to diffuse the situation as broadly as possible, so that there are more players to work on the problem, I’d imagine

Sure it might not be impactful to the company, and it’s basically impossible to hold any entity with money accountable.

That said, I’m accountable to myself, and as I get older I want to more-and-more become the person I want to be. This will always entail some sort of sacrifice.

Don’t get me wrong, if Blizzard treated…

A Lot of it [virtually all of it] is directly tied to having those entities make better choices via what small pressures you’re able to reasonably apply.

I partake in movies that were produced by the Weinstein company. Seeing as they ousted him and he’ll probably die in prison, not much more there that I need per se.

Bli…

I’d rather have a mechanical keyboard than a quiet keyboard.  My neighbors might prefer the opposite.
