That's the whole point of a cult classic: it didn't catch on initially and took time to develop a fanbase! How can people not understand that?

Fallout 3 and NV were literally the only games I had played between getting a PlayStation 2 in 2001 and getting a Switch in 2018. I was not paying any attention to game press and loved NV immediately, only later finding out that it had been panned by press and was considered a cult classic

I have a friend who works at a big bay area tech company, and they came extremely close to hiring a fake person in a content role. They have since made it policy that anyone on a remote interview has to perform a movement on a video call to demonstrate realness (like waving to the camera)

This shit is so stupid, people need to stop pretending that we understand how our brains work with this simplistic bullshit

Libs love to say β€œyes of course I would vote for Adolph Hitler if he were the Democratic nominee and the other guy was 1% worse” as if that makes them virtuous. You actually can’t win with them

Just had a sudden thought of β€œhey isn’t our car registration due soon?” Checked the notice and I had approximately 30 minutes left to pay it on time πŸ’ͺ

Really interesting to see both waveforms! I remember a while back wondering how the analog sound was encoded on laserdiscs and from what I remember it's some wierd modulation system similar to FM radio

Also just why would you order nachos in Montreal? Poutine is Quebecois nachos but you know it's actually going to be good

I realize they just arrived but I feel like everyone should already know to never ever order mexican (or "mexican") food in Canada

I would actually love to play that game but I don’t think AI can make that game

if you sold or traded it that just gives you a new opportunity to experience the satisfaction of getting it again

I do think there are fields where AI is "good enough" to replace some jobs, though for anyone who cares about the product it's completely insufficient, but mostly it's being used an excuse for companies to be shittier to the employees they do have

There's one of these in the bay area - parents have to sign release forms before they let the kids have tools but I think this sort of thing has been making a comeback

Dead Surf Kiss - Embryo Metal Doll
YouTube video by Dream of the 90s Dead Surf Kiss - Embryo Metal Doll

On my mind because I recently picked up a CD of Dead Surf Kiss, an odd Vancouver mathy-thrash-noise rock band, produced by Dave Ogilvie and featuring Pat Sprawl, who supplied The Process with the big dumb guitars

I know it's still kinda divisive but The Process might be my favorite Skinny Puppy record, certainly the one I have listened to the most. It was exactly what I wanted when I was 15 and has held up extremely well. Weird techno + big dumb guitars 30 years on

from very distant memories it's fine in moderation but every single character becomes stupid and annoying and unlikable if you watch it enough (except maybe the doctor)

man that's not even partisan or anything. Things are "going on in the world" even if you're a right-winger! everyone is always talking about how bad things are, right-wingers just do it in a slightly different tone

i think good art transcends the boundaries of language and culture to touch people, in our fundamental shared humanity and this is why i think next year the superbowl halftime show should be merzbow
