The dream of every male child in the 90s.

Happy #SuperbOwl 🦉 Sunday to all who celebrate.

“Don’t believe in yourself. Believe in the me who believes in you!” is all time great anime nonsense, and that’s just the first episode.

I recommended Streins;Gate to a coworker once. When I saw him a few days later he looked like he hadn’t slept. He’s been watching casually, but then he got to the halfway point the evening before and had to binge the rest because there were no good stopping points. 😆

Kinda wish it didn’t require a 100% save file. I don’t want Steam to pop a bunch of achievements just because I’m playing a mod.

My introduction to Exa Arcadia was a review of the Genesis version of Earthion which was like, “it has all several odd mechanical decisions I don’t like. And it also has an Exa port that costs a million times more with a mode that fixes every problem I have.” Why.

Having a control panel with all my streaming subscriptions and a little on/off toggle next to each one was the most consumer friendly thing in all the streaming service madness, and we’re probably never getting it again. Disney flat out won’t let me re-sub through the App Store anymore.

People (rightfully) gave Apple a lot of flack about requiring Apple Pay/App Store-based subscriptions in streaming apps on iOS. It wasn’t ideal! But also, it totally preempted sketchy stuff like this.

My favorite series plot point is that a rare monster, the last of its kind, is going to destroy an entire ecosystem and must regrettably be put down. But then also, the plot acknowledges that we can go fight it as often as we want, because reasons.

This scenario has been used in multiple games.

Caves of Qud mutates onto the Nintendo Switch, February 16th!

Tons of apps are technically web browsers with the nav controls hidden. But it’s sort of just an implementation detail.

Forced slow walk down a forest path as Tolkien describes each tree in detail.

A selection of old (60s/70s) NASA research notes.

That time I found a pile of old NASA research documents in a skip and took them home for a lark.

A white-and-ginger cat sits indoors facing the camera, staring calmly. Bright pink-red beet stains smear across his nose, forehead, and cheeks, contrasting with his clean white fur. Clothes hang blurred in the background, making the cat’s beet-stained face the clear focus.

I swear to god, I left this cat alone for two fucking minutes with a jar of red beets.

Two. Minutes.

For too long Japanese cartoons have ravaged our lands unchecked. Only noble Adobe can stand betwixt us and total animehilation.

I suspect this is partly why so much stuff films in Georgia; a relatively diverse range of environments easily accessible. It doesn’t do a terribly convincing Nevada, but people have probably tried.

That’s travel-able, though when I pack board games in a suitcase I usually rebox them into a sturdy plastic container regardless of original size.

I vaguely remember seeing it as a teenager, trying to outline a more satisfying ending, and eventually concluding that fixing the plot would have required major surgery to half the film.

But it was such a cool looking movie!

He’s the best sleuth there is, but thanks to the crippling emotional damage inflicted by the murder of his wife, he’s unable to leave his hot tub. Thanks to the help of his faithful assistant in both finding clues and inviting suspects, he catches killers. J’ACCUZZI, coming this fall to ABC

It can do general DX12 stuff, but doesn’t have DX12 Ultimate features.

You can test new tech ideas using the Seinfeld Test

Would the product eliminate the plot of an episode? (Google maps, cell phones, paypal, battery packs)

Good tech.

Would the product inspire new Seinfeld plots? (NFTs, AI chatbots, crypto currency, blindboxes, metaverse land sales)

Bad tech.

It doesn’t really seem to have any of the functionality of the macOS bar, though? Unless you can add the active app menu or system tray to it.
