the good thing is that giant fucking companies now feel like it's now more profitable to tell Elon to fuck off

Oh, no. I'm not saying they don't have good stuff. Their Bulgarian products are just a single small step below a small artisanal shop (probably because there is a law that forces them to have Bulgarian products in their store, but...). Point is they have no idea how to market American stuff.

And they had the hot dogs but it's a German store so they went "No! We're not putting our wursts in the American aisle! That stays where it was before!"
comment in response to post
I remember some time ago Lidl had an "American Week" here so all their stores had an aisle with burger buns, hot dog buns, Doritos and, admittedly, fucking amazing BBQ sauce.

Ah, the keep the trademark branch.

But, yeah, 2 is significantly better. I think it's the one that actually got big and the first one kind of rode on its success. So it's now also considered a classic retroactively because of the second one.

I think they both hold up...BUT that could be because I've grown up with this style of game... AND both BG games might be a bit of the most mediocre entries in the genre. But there's still nothing really wrong with them, you'd probably still have a good time if you're into that kind of game.

This is the part I don't get. Sure, believe in stuff, fine. But is it a transactional thing in this case? Like, your God is going to help you because you got enough prayer points? You prayed over this shit human being so God is now forced to help him?

Would somebody think of all the people who don't deserve healthcare according to their boss!?

Especially when the game seems to just be Raid: Shadow Legends with DC Comics characters. Or maybe it's just Fallout Shelter with DC characters. Can't tell and I'm definitely not downloading it after seeing those ads.

My TV didn't know what was plugged into its HDMI ports, my fridge started beeping because it was too hot, my WiFi extender needed to be restarted through my phone. My dishwasher was like "Spray water on those dishes? I get it, I sprayed a bit on there already. Let me finish them off."

Not to mention that a cow, if they weren't as nice as they are, can probably kick the shit out of a chimp.

I'm getting kind of tired of weird guys being really into milk for some reason.
comment in response to post
People are selling human milk. Unless you're a baby it's absolutely not beneficial to you but why would you go for chimpanzee milk? Do they think it's the milk and not the fact that chimpanzees climb stuff all day? And it's not about being ripped, it's about being tall, which chimpanzees are not.

I need some societal pressure in my life (tried to shoot a basketball with my left hand today).
comment in response to post
No, no. This is the actual future. I'm actually tired of having to drive the tram. Every time I get on all the passengers take turns driving it. They should get a person to do that. Just imagine if there was a way for one person to drive a vehicle that transports, like, 200 other people.

You can't explain that to 2000s right-wingers, let alone 1960s right-wingers. Video games were seen as "complete degeneracy" by them up to, like, 10 years ago when they realized that a lot of Gamers hate women.

What would be better? Beating up veterans to see if they drink more after that? Giving random people cancer just to check if your idea for curing it works? Would that be a better use of government funds? It's not mice, so it doesn't sound silly at all. Seems quite logical.

Bird flu aside, the fuck does "maximize this situation" mean? Did she randomly stumble onto 11 chickens?

There are 2 exceptions to this - Static-X "The Only" and Rancid "Out of Control" Whenever one of those plays, all ridiculousness is gone and it's the coolest shit you've ever seen again.
comment in response to post
Admittedly, the pure ridiculous nature of it in hindsight might have actually made the game even better.

So "Civ: 365/wheel heart of TE:chnology Remix"

Recently made the mistake of putting away the sound guys at the LEGO concert.

Real question because I don't care enough to look into this - did it generate "complex gameplay sequences" or a video of regular gameplay sequences that are basically the thing it was trained on? Is there a game? Can they release this two minute game so we can try it?

- The AI just gave us a great idea for a game! - Yeah, Mike over at Machine Games has pitched this game 7 times now. - AI is just incredible, isn't it?

Imagine being radicalized by "Girls like ponies, I like firetrucks"

Didn't post the build but it's an i7-3370 with a GTX 750 Ti low-profile card and a combo of a 1TB HDD and a 256GB SSD stuck inside an old Optiplex 7010 SSF case.

Try to get the most obscure early 2000s game, which is kind obvious.
