Two perfect examples of how difficult it is to maintain effective application of spirit gum throughout a production... look at those droopy mouths.

But Mike, his screen name is SHOGUN written in leet... his superiority is unassailable.

These big triple A corporations talk about owning IP...

But nobody realizes the staggering raw, unrestrained potential of a series of games based on animals just completely losing their shit in urban settings.

This is not the first time I've been frustrated by Sam on tech topics (he was, imo, overly blasΓ© on the purchase of Twitter because he didn't think it would impact anything), but I'm still disappointed to hear him reinforcing the idea that 230 *protects* the speech of corporations.

The thing that kept me coming back (and playing when it launches) is the aesthetic - I just can't resist it.

Meanwhile, I just accept that people are going to be dicks, and I don't have to also become one to enjoy the aesthetic - especially if I accept that I'm going to die a lot.

Arby's beginning every commercial with "BREAKING: we have the meats".

There is another, more terrifying, possibility here, and that is that Iran has invincible helicopters that can't be damaged by explosive munitions.

You get to go to the museum for free? Back in the day, that used to cost at least two mini straight razors!

Are the first two ways conservative and liberal so the third way is full-on corporate servitude for everyone but the immortal and genetically superior CEOs who rule all from their sub orbital sky palaces?

Which is so frustrating, because back catalog has an infinitely long tail for a digital library and can also be 'monetized' with the right platform library (gog, EA origin, Ubi+ - even if those aren't great examples, necessarily).

Oh... dude also writes for Quillette. Yeah. Yeah, I think we're done here.

Straight into the garbage.

I didn't expect to be this shocked, and I probably shouldn't be, yet...

Dosa Divas on Steam Battle an evil fast food empire in this spicy narrative turn-based RPG. Two sisters and their upgradable spirit-mech cook delicious meals, fight corpos, build up your reputation with local communities...

and a minigame-based cooking mechanic to break things up and add variety. Overall, the narrative and imagery are playful in a very deliberate way that sneaks in some real emotional subtext.

Can't wait for April!!

Just wrapped up the Dosa Divas demo and, honestly, I already had this wishlisted from the first trailer so this was a nice chance to get a peek at the mechanics, aesthetic and voice and I was super pleased!! Classic console rpg feel with interactivity similar to Mario RPG with timed hits/dodges...

Rice and burger is low calorie?

(Also, put in a tortilla and you have two thirds of a burrito which you can complete with a can of beans - probably the easiest of all protein sources.)

By "all the way through it" ... I assume you mean, finished it multiple times?

With @darthbluesky.bsky.social still hibernating, it falls to us to ask:

Falwell: blame abortionists, feminists and gays The Rev Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson have set off a minor explosion of their own, asserting on US television that an angry God allowed the terrorists to succeed in their deadly mission because the ...

Not exactly happy, but some in the religious right had theories about why it happened that I'm sure we would get today in a more general sense:
