I can remember seeing the comment that rickrolled Rick… Fucking legend and expertly done.

What makes you think China will attack Taiwan before Christmas?

Never understood this argument. It has nice rethorics but proves nothing. the problem with text prediction != intelligence is that we can’t even define intelligence. I hate AI as much as the next guy here, but that doesn’t mean we should do lazy assertions and quoting dumb arguments.

Wait? I thought they had killed the project or at least significantly reduced it in scope? Why still kill for it then?

No I’m more interested what happens if you use the one ring as cockring? And to what size will it adjust?

How are they even making a profit with it? Does the psn account cost money?

Silksong when?

I never understood this, but isn’t Medusa the tragic one? I mean she gets made into this only because she is born extremely beautiful and some random goddess was jealous of her? Sounds extremely unfair. Or was she somehow of bad character?

Pff… Chess is entirely too black and white thinking

Ah Afghanistan. Where empires go to die

Could you give some examples? Just curious. I want to see how they differ from male isekai in terms of escapsim. And I don’t mean multiple people like in Sao or Alice in wonderland. I just watched this “project Elise doctor” and what in the world was that? A double isekai? Or a isekaiception? But it definitely was different from when boys/men die.

I think it’s justified, but I don’t necessarily mean it in a negative way. Her competence is certainly an important part of exploring what the series is actually about, namely loss, regret, and what’s really important in life, etc. Which you can have even if you are very powerful.

Now that I think about it. Maybe that’s exactly the reason why it is not competence porn. Maybe her competence is analogous to a sex scene which enhances the actual topic and not the goal itself like how sex is in porn.

On the other hand I certainly watch it for the competency lol

When I watched Frieren the best thing was that it was no fucking isekai. It’s still competence porn, but at least she is not a middle aged man who died lonely in his bedroom. Just a classic fantasy world. Loved it

As far as I understand it the Frontline is pretty saturated with drones. Heard it in a documentary that I cannot find, of course, but a quick search gave this article https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2024/04/14/ukraine-drones-russia-war-skies/:

The sheer number of drones means the battlefield is “almost transparent on both sides,” Nepal said, speaking from a makeshift base near the front line filled with parts for FPVs.

So yes seems to me as if it is a almost 24/7 thing. Maybe not over 100% of the Frontline, but at least in the most of it.

(I may have overestimated the meaning of hinterland… I meant like the 10km or so behind the front)

Drones have extreme effect on the Ukrainian battle field as there is no secrecy anymore. Every inch of the front and the hinterland is permanently watched by both sides via drones. But yeah you are right the actual advancement is still made on the ground

This is Elon Musk

No it’s not good from the point of the book! In every single episode (every episode is a short story from the first book) they made at least one critical mistake that completely erases what makes the short stories so genius in the book. It’s madining because the look and feel is very nicely captured and there was no reason to not follow the book more closely in the crutial plot points… ahhh such a wasted opportunity. I don’t care much about the rest. I think only the first Witcher book is really good.

Ah yes. Landlord simulator 2000. Loved it

What’s the feminine form? Witchess?

Every few years I replay Gothic 1 or 2. Are these great games? Yes. Is it also because of nostalgia? Yeah

Also from time to time I reinstall black flag… Mostly for the feeling of sailing
