A surprising number of the most interesting games I’ve played in the last few years have hybridized deck building into their gameplay.

I want them to interview Jen Zee, because I’d love to know which crossroads she sold her soul at to be that good of an artist(all joking aside, I know it’s because she has obviously worked very hard at honing her craft over the years).

I wonder how that might impact Nozomi’s YouTube presence. Hosting free, legal copies of some underserved classics and all time top hits helped get me back into anime. I’d be bummed if Sony pulled it all down.

Box sizes are more selected for filling the truck than fitting an item. Far as packaging goes, what do you expect for the pittance these people often work for? Packers in particular are run through the wringer. A facility I was working at today casually mentioned that they usually have 30 people quit every day, most…

Many Amazon warehouses already use a pretty robust robot system, usually installed on a mezzanine to move packages around within the warehouse. Fact is, at this point, it’s still wildly impractical to hand off loading, boxing, and packing duties to robots, I suspect largely due to the massive variety of items and need…

Speaking as someone who works with the Memphis area warehouses, this is a bigger issue than just Amazon. Many warehouses in the region are suffering from a lack of workers, fueled both by the pandemic pushing many people into gig work and WFH as well as depressed wages. Specific to Amazon, though, they’ve also…

Well, the form factor of the port will easily be standardized for a long time. I mean, look at USB-A. Been on systems for almost two decades and still going. The important differentiation here is that the form factor is what’s being standardized, the plug shape. Transfer speeds and power supply speeds are constantly…

I feel like this has become a pretty universal explanation as the silly OS war between Android and iOS has worn down. At this point, most people are so firmly entrenched in the tools, web apps, and systems that migrating from one to the other would be a colossal headache, so it’s simply easier to stay with one or the…

I’m curious what you mean by that. The Quest 2 has a glasses spacer shipped with it, as do most of the other major headsets I believe, and though not first party you can purchase prescription magnetized lenses for the Index. I’m functionally blind without contacts or glasses, and I’m a fairly avid Quest user.

You’re on a Jezebel adjacent site. Man-hating is practically the sitewide pastime behind hypocrisy(fuck Amazon, but look at all this neat stuff they sell!)

What’s amazing is I don’t know if you’re talking about that one level with the incredible Q prompt or any of the other incredibly fun, interesting levels. It’s like the developers just kept making levels until they ran out of new, fun ideas and called it quits right there, which makes it a good length and maintains a…

This is exactly it. My wife held on to her s9+ until just last week and got the S22 Ultra when it became available, half because ATT’s trade in deal on it was too good to pass up, half because her S9+ was rapidly losing functionality. She wants the extra functionality because she’s a small business owner and likes the…

The real tragic exclusion from this list is Blade and Sorcery. With the U10 update, the bones of a progression system are beginning to form, and the combat has never been sharper or more enjoyable.

I mean, the Darkwraiths were right there. Get a Dark Sword, toss some titanite at it, and breeze through like half of the game.

Sean Murray and his team seem to be a part of a wonderful pedigree of developer, driven by the love of making games first, with making a profitable product as a secondary concern. I dove on No Man’s Sky after I got an Oculus to try out the VR functionality, and the idea that an experience like that is made by such a…

I was thinking the same thing. There’s several great free platforms for VR social hangout content available, so you don’t really need to be shackled to Facebook’s implementation. They’ll really need to step things up if they want to compete with the real players in this space like Rec Room and VRChat, the latter of…

Tennessee is trying to force people back into the workforce at this point. I work in the GMA, and practically every business has a now hiring sign of some stripe out front. It’s particularly a problem here because so many warehouses desperately need people to get the supply chain back up to capacity for every kind of…

I don’t need another watch. Why would you do this to me?

That cutlery set, while attractively branded and priced, is a poor option for a starter knife block. The blades are not full tang, and the blades are serrated, which produces a poor cut. Amazon Basics or Chicago Cutlery basic sets are available in the same range and produce better results. Henckels does produce some…

The combat looks a lot like Rage 2, which was only really hampered by its open world design that didn’t let combat flow naturally across a larger space. Hopefully the tighter focus and extensive environments they’re showcasing will remedy that design flaw and elevate this.
