- Comment on Report: Microsoft to face antitrust case over Teams 1 day ago:
Antitrust? Pff.
How about crimes against humanity?
- Comment on Deepfakes of your dead loved ones are a booming Chinese business 6 days ago:
That’s more than a bit rude.
He’s saying he likes the people despite their government. He admires parts of their spirit and drive to remember their loved ones.
We can learn even from those we may consider our adversaries.
- Comment on Telcos keep using “insecure” Chinese gear because of congressional inaction 1 week ago:
So they don’t give a fuck about security. Telcos print money and can afford it. Mandate they do so.

Okay, this is hilarious.

Heh.
- Comment on US Air Force confirms first successful AI dogfight 3 weeks ago:
Well that’s terrifying.
Moreso if I were an aircraft but still.
- Comment on I did it. I finally did it. After all these years, all the time I spent searching, I found the last known fully offline build for Graal classic. 4 weeks ago:
Looks like it was a multi-player Zelda-like with user made campaigns.
I can see why that would be a hell of a lot of fun.
- Comment on Hasbro exec says Baldur's Gate 3 "proved for us that people really wanted great D&D games," supports Larian's plan to "take the time we need" 1 month ago:
And it was used to great effect. There’s a ton of good stuff in the D&D mythos that can be made into other solid games.
Hasbro will fuck it up, I agree, but the potential is undoubtedly there.

That’s a good point, thanks for adding it.

Not a bad read. For those who only want to know why Trump is mentioned, they claim you cannot cancel someone with no shame.
Only someone capable of self-reflection and growth can be cancelled, because they step back from the limelight in order to reassess things.
I don’t know I agree as part of canceling is deplatforming, but it’s an interesting viewpoint.

I meant in the main series.
Nice reference in your username.

And still not a book from Martin. I’ve also refused to have anything to do with his other properties.

I have no familiarity with the games so I’m clueless but…
This looks completely terrible.
- Comment on Inside Sony’s ‘Madame Web’ Collapse: Forget About a New Franchise 2 months ago:
I hear you but this one is another in a line of very misguided Sony movies, and the errors made in its production completely undermined both the plot and how it was going to tie into the failing multiverse.
In regards to DC movies, nobody is expecting them to be good for a while yet while they reboot everything. Then Marvel is flagging with several issues but Sony surprises everyone by releasing yet another non-Spiderman Spiderman movie.
Now on top of all that you’re right, sexism is playing into this too, especially from the toxic male fanboy culture, but to me this one was already on extremely shaky ground before it was released.
- Comment on Is the sixth sense worth watching now ? 3 months ago:
In my opinion, knowing both the premise and that there is a Twist is enough to give away the ending in this case.
I guessed it, saw it in the theater, and was right. Still a good movie though, maybe hasn’t aged perfectly but not badly.
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 Has Been Completed by 1.3 Million Players, Shadowheart is Most Popular Love Interest 5 months ago:
My first playthrough I slept with the Emperor and then Wyll, and ended up with Wyll. I killed Karlach for Wyll.
Second one I was with Lae’zel but was a durge. I wanted to be with Karlach since I didn’t have her on my first playthrough but then I killed Isobel. That dooms Karlach.
So this time I’m aiming for Karlach. She’s so fun!
- Comment on Your evil deeds may be causing Baldur's Gate 3 bugs 5 months ago:
Well that’s hilarious.
My second run on my PS5 has been so terribly glitchy. And yes, it’s a Dark Urge run.
My response to being caught is to murder some more.
- Comment on EA working on player-voiced characters in games, patent shows 5 months ago:
Imagine doing a Jar Jar impression and having to live with it for an entire game.
