ChicoSuave,

Kentucky Dick Chicken is finger licking good!

ChicoSuave,

Ah, the yearly ritual continues. Bethesda makes a game that needs bug fixing, let’s the players fix it with mods, then B tries getting players to pay for the mods in the hopes they can finally charge money for mods that are needed to fix the game.

Classic Todd. Can’t wait until he quits making games. Bethesda might actually use a new game engine besides the Creation Engine.

ChicoSuave,

When the dev doesn’t have enough resources or time or werewithall to make different areas with different mobs, they reuse the existing areas to pad out the grind. Level scaling is a sign of lazy development.

ChicoSuave,

Reactionary policies are always a bad attempt at solving the problem and it’s hard for many folks to see that, much less deeply understand it enough to guide their decisions. People see something they don’t and they want it gone, not to study it to banish it.

It’s part of the appeal for right wing parties. Authoritarians use force to squash the problem and it feels good to see toxic equivalency meted out to those who hurt us. The goal isn’t to stop crime from happening, it’s to cause crime to know what it is up against and that will stop most petty crime. But organized crime will rise up and become a second government to those who wanted strength over study, brawn over brains.

Let them live in their cage. They made it, let them enjoy the fruits of their labor.

ChicoSuave,

Was this article ghost written by Shatner?

ChicoSuave,

Love this patch for finally fixing the exploits and making most basic guns useful again.

ChicoSuave,

The data they take from you still gives them recurring revenue.

ChicoSuave,

SS14 is playable now. Request access for the beta, it is usually approved within a few minutes. It is excellent at being a replacement for SS13.

ChicoSuave,

He gets away with it, which is why he’s doing it. Once other countries close their borders to Russia, the blood fued to retake Crimea will become very real to Russians.

ChicoSuave,

No, the system that maintains these unsustainable standards isn’t the problem. It’s the people who don’t fit into the mold. We need to change people to preserve the system!

ChicoSuave,

After Tuvix, she grew fond of dark impulses.

Coincidentally that’s also what she calls coffee.

ChicoSuave,

Comparing the Civs steals the joy they bring for their various reasons.

  • Civ 1 was unlike anything else and so legendary it created the 4X genre.
  • Civ 2 had the best espionage until an expansion for 4. Civ2 also defined the scope for all future Civs.
  • Civ 3 was fine. Resources were a good addition and tile quirks, like Floodplains on top of another base tile like desert, helped bring tons strategy and gave the ability to grow Tall.
  • Civ 4 was probably peak Civ for many people, especially including DLCs.
  • Civ 5 removed unit stacking and made happiness a resource.
  • Civ 6 emphasized the city development aspect and brought back the climate stuff from 2, 3, and 4.

They are all good but they are not collectively suitable for every person. Civ6 is amazing but it took me literally 30 hours to finally have it click. I also have 550 hours in Civ 6 and over 1200 in Civ 5. CiV is also a high water mark but it overshadows the real value and fun in 6.

It’s a shame most folks will ignore us and say 6 was bad for being too game like.

ChicoSuave,

92 bricks has got to be some kind record.

ChicoSuave,

Zaslov’s plan is everything has to actively make money and all the free space on screen should be making money. Fuck the creators who make the things he sells, he wants the creations to always make money. Things that don’t make money aren’t culturally valuable and are thrown away. So that’s the directive WB seems to be following and Multiversus is the latest casualty to Zaslov’s Plan.

ChicoSuave,

So that’s why the next show had a doctor who was also a choreographer…

ChicoSuave,

Seeing her in the Behind The Scenes footage of Labyrinth made me double take. I had to convince my family that Dr Crusher was in the movie and it wasn’t until after IMDB came out that they believed that Cheryl McFadden and Gates McFadden were the same person.

ChicoSuave,

Holy shit, in a year of bad games, Suicide Squad stands out. Honestly shocked Forspoken or Redfall didn’t get top spot.

ChicoSuave,

A discharge barge.

ChicoSuave,

That grunt flipper?

ChicoSuave,

Kerbals screamed out and were suddenly silenced.

ChicoSuave,

“I loved my children until I got sweaty” is a weird take away.

ChicoSuave,

It’s reverse AC for your groin! Get swamp crotch without the hassle of effort.

ChicoSuave,

Hormones. They have an imbalance and it causes them to lose hair and loved ones.

ChicoSuave,

It was a good game while it lasted. Best of luck Intercept.

ChicoSuave,

Yep. But it is still “Early Access” so it isn’t finished. But like other early access games, it’s a playable game. Think first person Freelancer or a better Elite Dangerous.

ChicoSuave,

People paid money for a game to be made and it’s both being worked on and has playable content, just like other early access games. Why does Star Citizen get the hate for doing the same thing as other games?

ChicoSuave,

This is why I learned to use metaphors. People love hearing about something if it was similar to something else. And not some dumb simile shit, like actual comparative metaphors.

“Why yes, the Internet IS a series of tubes. And the water pressure is bandwidth, the ability to move a volume of data in a set time. And each sprinkler is a user who may have individual restrictions but ultimately gets the same water as everyone else. That’s what the Internet is Grandpa.”

ChicoSuave,

I dunno. Math asks me to just accept it’s normal to have 60 watermelons and is trying move bulk orders of melons on a regular car. The goal is to figure out the problem and not accept that the person who is a wholesale watermelon dealer in denial is commiting tax evasion.

Or to discover that the melon seller has a regular job in ag and gets a bunch of melons on the side from the field and sells the harvest at cost to make up the part of their paycheck that was paid in perishable food.

Should we shame the seller for breaking the law or sympathize for being forced into that situation? People don’t have the energy to care; they just came for a maths question.

ChicoSuave,

Oh man, that’ explains it. I’ve been using spherical swallows, which are roughly coconut sized. So really just use coconut maths.

ChicoSuave,

Nolan needed that to make the movie entertaining. Corman could use that to make the movie entertaining. Corman had a gift for making people enjoy the hour and a half folks give him. It won’t win awards but folks like to shit on smiles when they can laugh.

ChicoSuave,

She’s thinking of the Pegasus and tapping the console with crossed fingers.

ChicoSuave,

My friend was desperate for work and found a job with a veterinarian. The job was a vet tech but the work was euthanizing dogs and puppies for the county. He quit after a few months and has never been the same.

Now imagine it’s a big, faceless Corp that wants the government contracts for humane services. A worker will be forced to agree with how the company does business while the corporate bean counters look for ways to save money on euthanasia. Gas chambers will be manned by broken wage slaves who are only employed because they are detached from their emotions.

ChicoSuave,

Most households have a TV with TV speakers, only capable of L/R. Why pay money and have people sit through a corporate short film for a feature most won’t use?

ChicoSuave,

I’m shocked it isn’t loss

ChicoSuave,

Garden and lumber had the best forklift drivers. Building materials and hardware had the jacked dudes from lifting bullshit weight all day.

ChicoSuave,

You’ve clearly never seen a surgeon insert a stent into a blocked fuel line.

ChicoSuave,

This comic is made from 2 shows from the 90s and uses a punchline from a parody of an unrelated 80s movie. This is such a weird and wonderful fandom.

ChicoSuave,

The joke is the meta connection from 3 movies spanning 2 IPs with a single actor from both saying one line. It’s super thin as a premise but it works like dynamite here.

ChicoSuave,

And how a person is useful to Putin is entirely out of their control. If a person would be useful as a symbol, expect chalk outlines.

ChicoSuave,

Golden Rice is the most obvious example of how wrong you are on all your points. Golden Rice is GMO to be easier to grow in bad locations and provides a lot more nutrients than non-GMO rice. It is cheap and easy to grow, intended to bring food nutrition to parts of the world that suffer from nutritional deficiency.

This one GMO food solved blindness, diabetes, and death from lack of vitamin A. Many MANY more foods are modified for our benefit that don’t attract people who are scared of the words Genetically Modified. Do you even know how things are genetically modified? Breeding programs that specifically target for traits. No one is going into the DNA to make 5G tracking chips or Super COVID.

Did you know corn was genetically modified in the early 1900s to increase yield per acre?

Did you know the other staple grains like wheat and soy are also GMO? You can eat food without eating GMO and you are absolutely fine.

Stop spreading baseless fear.

ChicoSuave,

In practice, capitalism will use technology to subjugate others instead of allowing technology to free us from work.

ChicoSuave,

Get back the future that was taken from you. Eat the rich

ChicoSuave,

The real zombie is the RE franchise. It keeps getting up, disfigured from what it was before, changed in ways no one could imagine and all we can do is look at it in horror before trying to avoid it

ChicoSuave,

Οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ Πλάτωνος ἄνθρωπος

ChicoSuave,

More like “Microsoft is fucking up. Quick, do something that is shitty but isn’t as bad as closing studios. Account registration requirements? Perfect! Fuck those poors in unsupported countries.”

ChicoSuave,

I liked it until CD Project Red showed they care about the shareholders more than the users with Cyberpunk. It’s clear that GOG will flip to be anti-consumer as soon as the shareholders change the company leadership. Enshittification comes for all companies because business majors don’t understand people.

Steam is private and Gaben is benevolent so that worry is distant. I also have no illusions that should Steam ever go public or change hands then the inevitable end of good, customer needs focused storefronts. But for now, Gave has proven he knows how to make a place consumers like myself want to use.

Russia threatens Britain with retaliation if involvement in Ukraine war deepens (www.pbs.org)

Russia on Monday threatened to strike British military facilities and said it would hold drills simulating the use of battlefield nuclear weapons amid sharply rising tensions over comments by senior Western officials about possibly deeper involvement in the war in Ukraine....

ChicoSuave,

Russia has lost half a dozen ships to a nation with no navy. And they want to throw down with one as experienced as the UK? “Attacking the home of Storm Shadow missiles is a good thing” is the thought of an idiot.

ChicoSuave,

Pop ups all have Quark as their lead-in. “You seem to be familiar with the Rules of Acquisition, so you know what to do. Witness commerce!”
