harry_balzac,

My first new Trek was TNG, which I enjoyed, along with DS9. Then, I just lost interest and didn’t stick with anything until the Kelvin movies. That got me back in, though Discovery nearly killed it, then Strange New Worlds and Lower Decks reeled me back in.

The Kelvin movies are not the Trekkiest Trek media but they aren’t horrible movies.

Of course, nothing has yet to dethrone GalaxyQuest as the best Star Trek movie of all time.

Something Wicked Games (ex Bethesda veterans) laid off most of it's staff (www.linkedin.com)

“Heartbreaking news today as Something Wicked Games had to lay off most of their staff. As someone who has been in the industry for nearly 25 years, I understand the challenges of finding a new position during these tough times. I specialize in human and creature locomotion and Mocap, with some key framing experience as well,...

It’s not inflation - it’s price gouging by corporations. Wages aren’t going up nearly as quickly as corporate profits.

harry_balzac,

Yeah, not very Welsh-sounding at all. On the other hand, dude was born in Wales to a Welsh father, so as long as he is focused on helping Wales and the Welsh people, that’s what matters.

‘Everything he is saying isn’t true’: Congolese governments denounce Trump’s baseless stories about emptied prisons (www.cnn.com)

There is no evidence for former President Donald Trump’s repeated claims that “the Congo” has emptied prisons to allow violent criminals to come to the US border as migrants – and the governments of both the Democratic Republic of Congo and the neighboring Republic of Congo say Trump’s assertions are entirely false....

harry_balzac,

The truth is irrelevant to Trump and his sycophantic MAGAts.

Downloaded, used an empty home for the address, selected The Satanic Temple as my church, deleted the app, and gave it one star. Took 5 minutes.

harry_balzac,

That’s probably a good thing, though.

harry_balzac,

Up until now, AirBnB was more concerned about upsetting their providers. Now that local governments are starting to crack down, AirBnB now is more worried about staying in business. Especially if they end up on the losing end of multiple privacy lawsuits.

harry_balzac,

It would have been much more fitting to have the Israelis stay home and feature local members of the Jewish community and families of non-Jews who supported the community during the Nazi occupation.

harry_balzac,

I think they mean “government crackdown disguised as spontaneous counter demonstrations.”

'Complete Madness': Israel Blocks Food Aid as More Gaza Children Starve to Death (www.commondreams.org)

According to the Gaza Health Ministry, 21 people in Gaza ranging from 1 day to 72 years old have died from malnutrition and dehydration. However, the humanitarian group Defense for Children International - Palestine (DCIP) warned that “the true death toll due to starvation is feared to be much higher as many Palestinians,...

I’m not anti-Semitic but I’m definitely becoming extremely anti-Israel.

Witty title (lemmy.today)

Steve harvey is a fucking piece of shit who hates atheist, is homophobic, encourages guys cheating, is sexist, advocates rape and thinks guys and girls can’t just be friends i am sure there is more than that but this is what i have found please feal free to tell me and i’ll add it

harry_balzac,

Maybe they mean uncanny valley? Or maybe referring to implants that are popular in places like Utah valley (home to a high population of extraordinarily superficial Mor[m]ons and high rates of antidepressant use), which is sarcastically called “Happy Valley.”

harry_balzac,

That would mean having to be on Xitter. The idea of it makes me feel icky.

harry_balzac,

That is definitely one of my big complaints. Maybe I missed it, but I don’t like the speed. It’s either full speed or pause. I always feel rushed.

harry_balzac,

I. Love. This. Comment. NB: I am a human that is bipedal and omnivorous like many other humans on {undefined}.

harry_balzac,

It’s that they added it after release without previous notice.

harry_balzac,

Definitely paid actors. These companies all have social media teams. It’s not improbable that they create fake personal accounts to post apologist bs.

They also can buy sock puppet accounts and use those.

harry_balzac,

I’m splitting the money evenly with AAF.

harry_balzac,

I’m pretty sure the ROI for relationships with people who quantify abstractions is in the negative.

harry_balzac,

Leave Lemmy? Use a front end with filtering/blocking? Change communities? Plenty of options if you just take a hreath and think instead of whining.

harry_balzac,

Get Minnie teabagging. “Who’s the bitch now? Teehee.”

harry_balzac,

It’s where I rest my brain from the stupid at work. Being able to sit on a nasty commode with my nethers exposed is a bonus.

harry_balzac,

Sorry dude but you are most definitely not Kenough.

harry_balzac,

What’s great about this meme format is the opposite of what their followers would do. Satanists would share their key to feed the homeless while Christians would call the police…or just shoot them for looting. Cuz that’s what Jesus would do.

harry_balzac,

I try to avoid reviews for games that haven’t been released or aren’t in an open beta. I am especially suspicious in regards to embargoes that lift less than 24 hours before the game goes on sale.

Publishing peoples’ private info is bad and nobody should be encouraging others to find that info.

On the other hand, info about the games should be published. If a games journalist is willing to tow to company PR lines and withhold valuable info (to players) about games, then they should be willing to cover this. If they aren’t, then they’re just a fan with special access.

harry_balzac,

So…Bungies leadership is worried that Sony will completely take over, so they’re making it into a dumpster fire?

That’ll only mean that Sony will take over and fire the Bungie executives making these decisions, giving them generous severance packages on top of all the bonuses they’ll give themselves for cutting costs…wait, I think I figured it out.

harry_balzac,

I’m at the beginning of Act 2 and have avoided romancing any of them.

If I’m not getting any neither are they.

harry_balzac,

I really hope so. Any other interpretations and extrapolations would probably just make me feel sad and disappointed.

harry_balzac,

To be fair, WoW started sucking first. I just kept up.
