Well that just sounds like a terrible deal all around. Less than half of the features that make a smartphone valuable (almost necessary) for modern living, for roughly the same price. AND it’s ugly, probably awkward to use, and best of all, nobody asked for this
- Comment on The next No Man’s Sky update makes the game lonelier — and more dangerous 5 months ago:
As someone who just recently started playing (Xbox Gamepass is the GOAT), it’s not bad. Like, I’ve definitely played more streamlined/accessible games (think single-player, story-driven games) but it’s not like you’d have no idea what to do. Like another reply said, it’s pretty forgiving; I haven’t died or been truly inconvenienced even once and I’ve got at least 8 hours in it so far. The worst part is just that there IS a lot of stuff available for you to do and the objectives are essentially “Do this thing to unlock further things, but there’s no rush. You do you boo”

Draw a pattern with the dots? There’s several ways to protect your privacy and thumbprints are by far one of the laziest and easiest to exploit options available

In addition to all the other (better) answers on this post, I’ll just add: There is literally nothing stopping someone from buying one of those stickers and slapping it on their car like they would any other sticker. No one’s gonna pull you over because you don’t look like a beginner driver
- Comment on Christopher Nolan Calls Zack Snyder’s ‘Watchmen’ a Film ‘Ahead of Its Time’: It Should Have Been Released Post-‘Avengers’ 11 months ago:
The ending works a lot better, agreed. But most of the beginning and middle bits change the tone/framing/emphasis/etc to give the exact opposite meaning to what was originally intended. Biggest example I can think of is the opening battle between the Comedian and
Ozymandiasthe mysterious assassin; in the graphic novel that fight is framed as a dying, bitter alcoholic well past his prime getting absolutely bodied in an unceremonious and fitting end to a despicable man. In the film, sure he loses in the end but it’s a much closer fight and he goes out in a blaze of glory, defiant to the end, quite literally a hero’s last stand. Snyder also does his best to make Rorschach look as cool as possible (while still being grungy and uncouth) instead of how he is in the graphic novel: psychotic, extremely antisocial, and borderline fascist. Again, the change to the ending was a good choice, but there were many other choices made that I personally completely disagree with
