Nah, if that’s the goal they’ll just use Neutrino Bombs (look them up, they’re crazy what they’re designed to do)

Still salty that we lost out on the conclusion of the DeusEx trilogy because Eidos Montreal ended up doing the Avengers game that no one even remembers or talks about now.

I thought the same about BotW. Between the lack of story by default (you have to search it out through specific pictures that you damn well be able to know the landscape and match it up) and the sparse music and themes of previous Zelda games. It felt like the SMB2 of Zelda games, you could have titled it something else with a different protagonist and it would have been its own game.

Ml is a ticking time bomb. Mali is starting to take back its domain and lemmy.ml could go offline at any time. OP specifically noted that too.

I know everyone likes to tout VR, but I really think that AR will be the sweet spot most people ultimately adopt. Add it into nice looking glasses (sorry Google Glass, not it) and have some sort of easier to use interface that can interact with your surroundings and that will take off.

Imagine being in a business meeting with a little pop up over each person’s head with their name, title and other interesting information you need to know. Or be at a baseball game and have similar stats pop up above each player’s head. Turn by turn directions overlaid directly on the street. There are endless possibilities (as long as the ads don’t get in the way, but even for them, imagine green screen billboards that can display unique ads too).

as recently as 2005

You do realize that’s almost 20 years ago. That’s like saying “well you realize in 1985…” Back in 2005.

(The 2000s have been a blur for me time wise too)

I often times wonder if an extraterrestrial threat would be a unifying factor or if people would still be selfish unless it affected them. The pandemic was the closest we’ve seen to a world level threat recently and it just increased selfishness IMO (at least in the US)

Showerthoughts in a nutshell. Even when I went through and verified every rule was correct it was still removed. Modmail just responded “well you broke one of the rules” and would never explain which one or how.

Had us in the first half, not gonna lie.

Thank you… I hate all the people who are “we’ll permanently destroy the earth and it’ll never recover!” crowd. Maybe for us it’ll be too inhospitable and we won’t survive, but nature is surprisingly resilient. From bacteria that can eat oil and plastic, to entire generations of flora and fauna living in irradiated landscapes, it will adapt and be here long after we’re gone.

Dragon Ball FighterZ was just on sale on steam for 85% off including DLC. Nice to see that happen.

You went Tiananmen Square on it.

That was tried back in the early 1900s with the concept of a “company town”. The bad side of that is they ended up keeping your money as they owned the stores and the houses, so it basically became indentured servitude. Even worse, when you lost your job you immediately lost your housing.

Is this really any different from Spectre and other types of attacks? Except those targeted predictive execution.

But, but, it’s contributing to the entropy of the universe!

Gives new meaning to “sliding in to your DMs”

Keep going back much, much further. I remember hearing that phrase back in the early 2000s, and wouldn’t doubt it if if was referenced as early as 1999.

I’ll add Haworth to that list. Especially their Zody chairs. I swear by them for having to sit 8 hours a day on.

Steve Buscemi

10-15? That’s childs play. I honestly read probably an order of magnitude more than that.
