If they fuck with Jrose11 I’ll riot.

That’s like fining me $8.
- Comment on Final Fantasy 16’s PC release sounds pretty close, with a demo first so you can test its “somewhat high” specs 3 months ago:
The only thing I’m really concerned about is whether it will be an Epic exclusive for the first year. I really hate that shit.

Are they selling a “Verified” badge for your site, yet?
- Comment on ‘Foundation’: Tim Southam To Replace David S. Goyer As Season 3 Director 3 months ago:
Hollywood isn’t as “elite” as they make themselves out to be. It’s full of “that guy who makes the shitty subway sandwich but shows up on time so they don’t fire him”. Goyer is that guy. He’s probably likable, at least by Hollywood standards, and comes in at or under budget. Hollywood isn’t full of Chris Nolans and Martin Scorseses, there are plenty of Goyers that get work. It just so happens that Goyer is a nerd, and he keeps fucking up the nerd footlongs.

Welp, 50/50 on this show going forward. The first two seasons were dog shit.
- Comment on Apple is turning William Gibson’s Neuromancer into a TV series 3 months ago:
I love sci-fi, I love dystopia, I love cyberpunk. I strongly dislike neuromancer. I don’t like Gibson’s writing style. He’s horrible with characters, dialogue, and action. I understand he built an incredible world, I just don’t like what he filled it with. All that being said, I hope the fans enjoy this iteration, but after what Apple did to Foundation, I wouldn’t be surprised to see werewolves pop up in the fucking show. Good luck, fans.

“You killed my child.”
“No, I killed someone else’s kid, they just had your kid’s name.”
“So we agree you killed a child?”
Also, people that say that Foundation was unfilmable are just parroting what others have said. If it had been done by someone with any talent, it would have been just fine. Instead they gave it to a milquetoast superhero writer/director. Dune is a great example of a property that really should only work as a book, but it’s directed by someone who gives a shit and has vision.

I’m not mad, I’m just disappointed.
- Comment on ‘Last Week Tonight’: John Oliver Returns To HBO & Offers To Pay Clarence Thomas $1M A Year To “Get The F*** Off The Supreme Court” 4 months ago:
Not a million a year of HBOs money. Of his OWN FUCKING MONEY. Oliver is a maniac, and I love him to death. He could set up a gofundme for this and I would gladly contribute.

If all the hub-bub about Chrome getting less secure scared you, wait until you find out about how secure all the apps on your phone are…
- Comment on Valve: don’t expect a faster Steam Deck ‘in the next couple of years’ 9 months ago:
The goddamn system is only a year and a half old, and is finally seeing a wider adoption. If they added a new SKU into the market, it would only confuse and piss off the people who already bought one. These stories about Steam Deck “refreshes” and “upgrades” are fucking stupid, and I hope the shithouses that put them out don’t get any review units when the real one finally does hit the market.

Yeah, should work fine.

8bitdo makes some of the best controllers out there, or you can go with an Xbox controller, though they are much more expensive.
- Comment on Steam Deck and Dock Are On Sale for Steam's 20th Anniversary 9 months ago:
Yeah, 100%. It only has one USB-C port, so you can only use one plugged in without a dock, but it has bluetooth, so you can use a keyboard and mouse that way, too.

Easily one of the best entertainment purchases I have made in recent memory. Such a great and versatile handheld.

What a time to be alive. My dad got me a Gameboy with an external battery pack for my birthday when I was a kid. If I’d have known this was the future I had to look forward to, I would have flipped out.
