That's one of my very very favorite Blizzard cinematics.

I know, technically I added "words" to the "no words" post. Sue me.

this is on the shortlist of “greatest things Disney has ever produced”

I see from following the thread backwards this is how we arrived at the image.
Carry on.

This is simultaneously hilarious and caused me psychic damage.
Mostly because I can hear him saying “Pilot the Eva, Gonzo, or Beaker will have to do it again.”

I honestly couldn't tell because of the light.
Starmer's reaction of "I guess I'm picking these up" and then looking at them like he couldn't tell which direction they went didn't help.

Human-Computer Interaction is a deep discipline with lots of writing since computers were invented (and UX is deeper still, back to ancient medicine). I am far from an expert in it in any academic sense. But it seems to me that a world where everything works like autocorrect would be a better one.

Perfect meme. 13/10. No notes.

Yes, it's hard to tell the difference. No, I'm not telling people to "stop complaining" about both sides-ism, which is a real problem and massively impacts news in the US.

Hot take: some "tone policing" that people hate on social media is not "both sides-ism" but is actually trying to present the most factual, least spun version of reality to prevent this kind of collateral damage from policy made on incorrect assumptions.

Also if one got lucky and it really took off, SH would see it as a driver into their stores and help out with scaling logistics.
Win/win.

Dude, that Spirit Halloween hookup is a GREAT idea. The date is just a few weeks before Christmas purchases, the location work is already being done by SH, and the logistics are completely scalable.
This is a _fantastic_ idea, IMO. Spirit Game Fest. Demos and pre-orders for Christmas in SH.

I also saw a handful of "I have friends everywhere" and quotes from Nemik's Manifesto and... I'd've given you 1000000:1 odds that anything like that would happen when the lights went up on Phantom Menace is 1999.
The power of shared narrative is incredible.

I went to a lovely party celebrating sixth grade graduations that was crazy fun and obviously a lot of work went into it, and my role was to listen to a whole conversation about the benefits of raw milk and how it made this guy feel so much better he stopped all his meds.
Fun. Times.

I mean, we gotta keep something in our hearts going forward other than that delicious egg yolk mixing in with all that chessy, meaty goodness.

It's gonna plump in the pan! You gotta give dem boys the squishy squishy with your fingers before you drop them in.
If you do it in the pan, you just squish all the yummy fat and meat juices out and get dry edges while they plump anyway.
Meat concave, brings the flav. Meat convex, edges blechs.

Fall Out Boy references: check
human blood reference: check
Sizzling in pan: check... wait...
CORY! WHY DID YOU SQUISH THE MEAT IN THE PAN!!??
(j/k that mess looked delicious)

I know it's super easy to like, point in any direction and find someplace where we're just giving away global leadership, but the US military being the envy of the world was not just Big Bombs (TM) - it was logistics.
A lot of "why does the US intervene in so many places" was because we _could_.

Oh good.
We just saved and quit after the cutscene because it’s past midnight and we need sleep - and we worried that a lot of the lore might just end and be left “up to interpretation.”
Sounds like there’s still more to learn.

Will do.

But we were just getting into what felt like the meat of the lore and then realized on Day 19 we could [redacted] so we did assuming it wasn’t the end (stuff on line says day 30 or so is common) and then there’s a cutscene and credits rolling and we want to know more! /eol
