Slightly stupid. I watched The Lighthouse when I had enough time to watch the movie, but not enough time to go "wtf did I just watch?"

Rated as slightly stupid because while it was definitely the wrong move in hindsight, I couldn't have known.

Depends on what you mean by random. Computers aren't all that great at being random. So the reductive answer is flat out no because you're playing a computer game. The game you're playing, and it's particular workings are irrelevant. What we're really talking about is whether or not an outcome is unpredictable in a way that's sufficient for the needs of the game. You tell me: can you predict what power ups you're going to get in the heat of the moment? If you can, then I wouldn't call that very random, and if you can't than it's "random" enough.

This sounds like a ringing endorsement of Mando. Self contained episodes would be a refreshing change.

I always have to binge watch shows with long arcs because I want complete stories, and refuse to start until there is one. I'm one of those assholes that's killing television by not watching a show until after it's finished. I made a compromise for The Walking Dead in that I will get caught up every two or three years, as long as the season finale has a reasonable wrap-up. I'll permit a degree of what movies call "sequel hooks", but I won't get caught up on TWD unless and until all that remains is a hook. I had to make that compromise because TWD has run for so fucking long that it wasn't reasonable to wait until it finished.

I've had at least one teacher that was harder on me personally, but as far as I know that was isolated and not a matter of teaching style in general.

TopicGot gifted Code Vein
Kungfu Kenobi
11/26/19 3:31:54 AM

Code Vein has some DNA in common with Dark Souls as far as combat goes, but still feels more like an Action JRPG. It's got a fairly linear beads-on-string structure as opposed to the more freeform exploration generally found in Souls games. It's got loads of cut scenes. If you're someone that appreciates Souls games for taking a mostly hands off approach to the story with almost zero non-interactive sequences, Code Vein isn't that.

So when you put all that together, it's not really fair to compare it to Dark Souls. It's obviously influenced by Dark Souls in its mechanics, but it's got a lot going on that's pretty far removed as well.

It does have waifus.

Lets think of this backwards:

Indiana Jones and Star Wars were both homages to old serials... but there ARE no old serials to base on now.


The problem is Star Wars kinda IS "the old serials" now. So new Star Wars movies are really just homages to Star Wars movies. This applies equally to the prequels, and is a criticism I leveled at them when they first came out. So we end up with this photocopy of a photocopy effect that's only going to get worse.

Oh no, you have to like those. I only included those first three sentences because the last couple of years when I went on this rant, and I've been posting this exact rant for several years now, another user outright said I was wrong: I didn't hate Christmas. No one truly hates Christmas. Like, yeah, I do.

At the very least I hate the expectation that I'm going to participate in any of it with any enthusiasm. You want to get me something for Christmas? Get me a fucking pass on all this nonsense.

The 2010s were definitely rough. Maybe some of the worst since my pre-twenties. I've tried twice now to condense this post, and maybe I got it this time, but holy shit was that an awful period.

Between having to come to terms with how everything I worked toward in the 00s was now off the menu by 2010, having my industry contacts, career prospects, and finances completely rebooted, dealing with being in an abusive relationship that I couldn't afford to leave, one that caused me years of misery, one whose instability threatened to leave me homeless, penniless, and stranded in an unfamiliar city with no way home, the sudden loss of a dear loved one, someone who'd supported me in every sense (morally, emotionally, financially), getting out of that abusive situation and into another stressful living arrangement with too many characteristics similar to the previous abusive one, dealing with legal problems both civil and criminal, and both total BS, having to support my SO through two different long term health crises, both of which had end-of-life implications in either a literal or practical sense...between all that, I nearly fucking killed myself. By around 2017 I was just done. Not even depressed, just done.

And that is the short version.

It wasn't really until 2018 that things even remotely started moving again, and even that overlapped somewhat with the time period I was looking after my SO. So I'm still playing catch-up with that.

Regarding his "clean your room" message, I wonder if he just means this: Before going out to advocate for societal changes, try cleaning your room. If you find it hard to clean your room---which it is if you try to do a good job of it---be aware that changing society will be a lot harder, so don't get too upset if your efforts to do so don't come to much.

That's almost word for word what he's actually said. Though to him it's as much a strength building exercise as a perspective building exercise.

You have no freedom of speech on a private platform.

For now.

I can see this changing, and yes, that would be constitutional.

As it is, you could never compel a platform to curate or not curate certain content. That's a constitutional non-starter. You can restrict their immunity to liability for content delivered through their service. Section 230 can be repealed or modified, and I see growing political will to do so. If we added a requirement that platforms must behave impartially to material that doesn't break the law in order to maintain their immunity from liability, we would see one of two things happen: freedom of expression would be the defacto standard on all internet platforms, or all platforms would become heavily curated "walled-gardens" with zero user content: which would be the end of all social media. I don't see the social media genie going back in the bottle.
