They’re not shooting us YET but I’m sure it’s coming. I’m trans and HERE and scared as fuck.

Economic crash is happening anyway

I mainly use PayPal as a necessary evil so I don’t have to pull out my wallet and put the card info in every time I want to buy a game. I dunno maybe I SHOULD go back to that because then only the games that are worth the effort of getting up off the couch are the ones I’d buy.

US, obviously.

One of the things I’m happy with AI for is that it does summary meeting notes along with searchable transcripts. Helps so much when trying to reference things that were said on calls

I’m almost offended for my profession. Most of the programmers I know are quite tech literate, to the point it floors me when I find a coworker who is tech illiterate. Like, bro, it’s literally our job.

Yeah god that sounds like a nightmare.

I mean… Kinda Baldurs Gate 3, especially if you are a high charisma class. You can also be monk. They key is dont use attack spells, and knock everyone out instead of killing them on thr mandatory fights. SO MANY of the fights in that game can be avoided or skipped with dialogue. You can, for example, bluff your way entirely into the enemy bases, use their shops, and completely decide to stay out of conflicts. Again, like you said in NV, sometimes the ‘pacifist’ routr makes you feel like shit. Like, you can skip having to side with either Minthara or the tieflings in act 1 simply by leaving for act 2. A lot of people die in the background though.

Only mandatory fights I think are at the end of act 2, and the final boss fight. Everything else can be avoided or conversationally skipped. In the final fight, depending on allies you got throughout the game you can technically have them fight everyone. Or you can just stealth past everything with greater invisibility or as monk or rogues that can sprint really fast.

Its really odd, cause you’d think they’d just want to make money no matter where it comes from.

Does Pedro Pascal really have an accent though? Every interview i can find of him he sounds very american. Only when he said his name did I even hear a hint of a Chilean accent.

Unless it has been able to do longer and Im not up on my AI news… I’m talking continuous shot.

So far as I know, AI can only make like 10-second videos. This is much longer a continuous shot. Plus if you just look at the way the wind is blowing the cloth behind the barrier, the shadows are all correct as it bangs against it. I’m no forensics person but that seems pretty realistic to me.

Trump rails on everyone he thinks did the slightest wrong to him but hasn’t said a WORD about the Butler shooter.

I thought aleverything was fishy as fuck with thr shooting, down to the timing of it when he was really falling behind in polls, to thr secret service keeping him on stage instead of IMMEDIATELY ushering him off stage, to the absolutely perfect propaganda shot. Now seeing it from this angle its just… wow. But why did it take so long for this video to come out?

Me beating the first boss before I figure out the game had a leveling system…

Test of time was the definitive version of civ 2

They already have enough of a persecution fetish.

Yes I know how sensitive a subject it is.

Also, I too do not like small talk or mindless chit chat. If I talk, it is is in depth and with a passion about the topic.

Thanks for the constructive feedback instead of just assuming I was a bad person. I appreciate it.

Ok sure. Sorry I didn’t know ‘motherland’ was a negative phrase in Germany. I will not use it. My grandmother and mother were not German just great grandmother.

Software engineering. There is a lot of cognates yeah
