David Hayter put his foot in that script
I have told my mother at least 15 times to believe nothing the AI says. And yet, she googles the thing... and stops at the AI summary. Always!
I guess the right move was to find more appropriate software. Krita is much easier for the same task.
On the one hand, I'm a fan of open source software. On the other, it's getting pretty annoying having to look up how to do basic things using the GIMP, especially when the result of the search is "that's not what the software is for" I just wanna resize something.
At first I thought they were reusing Leo-S (don't look it up) parts on the right shoulder, but checking Dalong, it's a new runner. Between that, the clear parts, and clear action base, Bandai spent good money developing this.
PS5 controller compatibility is wild. Either the game has such good support (in 1 out of 100 games) that you get fancy rumble and adaptive triggers, or the device is useless without Steam Input turned on or DS4Windows spoofing it into an Xbox pad.
3 generations of PlayStations with USB controllers and they all need some 3rd-party homebrewed application to work right in most games. Sony won the final console war, but they lost the controller war.
My favorite thing about Zohran photos and videos is that they pretty consistently show him in situations I don't think any of his opponents have ever been in wrt the community.
I was able to pull it off with Stellaris and Civ V, but not CK3.
Step 1 is move to a very low-CoL region as close to Japan as possible, I'm sad (or happy) to say
I'm playing XCOM: Enemy Unknown for the first time in over a decade. This game is too cool! It feels like a boutique, "legacy" campaign board game, right down to the dice rolls to hit. Ran a mission to extract a Triad defector and his stolen alien artifact. Then he joined the away team! Sick!
I'm reminded of the Chris Rock selfies that helped push me to adopt a zero-violation policy behind the wheel. Not to mention Philando Castile. Sure (tailgater), I can do 5-10 over, or, I can go home without providing the probable cause that might get me killed off the strength.
With some light sanding, maybe a bit of spray can topcoat, the result is probably pretty similar anyway. But I gotta caution against using cheapo spray booths if you ever decide to start using the fancy cancer-fumes chemical paints. Should be fine for acrylic, tho. Also, some pros use nail polish.
I watched that trailer as a kid, but I definitely didn't notice how rhythmic it was. It was just really good!
Out of 11 tracks, Old Lungs is the only one that didn't go in the rotation. Great work. I wish folks like him got more shine, cause his Reddit album post only got 2 comments.
As a hard contrast to Joey's new album, I'm listening to DIRTWAVE, VOL. 3. 7 tracks in and it's 7 new tracks in my rotation. Consistency!!! Shoutouts to Boldy James for recording Mr. Ten08 with him and putting him on my radar. What an incredible producer. What an ear for sampling. What a vibe
Checked Reddit's response. It's mostly the opposite of mine. I guess I'm right about the crossing over Joey's about to do.
5 out of 11 tracks in the rotation is really good, but I feel like I might actually hate this man's next album. They're gonna have to add "singer" to his wikipedia page.
LONELY AT THE TOP - I mean, yeah, directly invoking Gang Starr goes in the rotation. But after Underwater and 3 Feet Away, it almost rings hollow. I dunno. I feel like Joey's next album might be more singing if his new fans outnumber/outlisten/outspend his old ones.
3 FEET AWAY - More of what I don't really want to hear from Joey. What is this, man? This is giving Drake. SPEEDIN' THROUGH THE RAIN - It's okay. No rotate. STILL - Rotation material. Statik Selektah at it again. Shouts to Ab-Soul and Rapsody. Phew! Album is back on code.
X amount of tracks for fans, Y for real heads, Z for the radio, A for the club, etc. Less art piece and more a product put out to make money by spreading across different vibes and audience appeals. I used to tolerate it, but not as an adult.
I don't have a good way to articulate this. Freddie Gibbs singing? Cool. Roc Marciano singing? I'm wit it. Joey Badass singing? He sounds like he's trying to expand his audience. I feel put off the same way I did by Benny's Everybody Can't Go. Like the structure mainstream albums would follow.
BK's FINEST - The Joey sound. A posse cut with Rome Streetz and CJ Fly over a Statik production. Yes! Shades of Crooklyn Dodgers. UNDERWATER - Good beat. Then the singer starts the intro, ok. Oh, the singer got a verse too, ok. Wait. The singer is transitioning into ra... it was Joey? Excuse me?
SUPAFLEE - The instrumental's main instrument, that starts the song off, sounds awful to me, which cost this album the uninterrupted first listen. HIGHROLLER - It's okay. Below par for the rotation. READY TO LOVE - This is not what I listen to Joey for. What is this? A rapid skip.
I've been looking forward to Joey Bada$$'s new album all year. Had it play during the commute today. DARK AURA - Right into the rotation. This is the sound I listen to Joey for. SWANK WHITE - I know my music discovery method is sound when favs collaborate. Shoutouts to Westside Gunn. #hiphopsky
I recommend you watch the Gundam Thunderbolt ONAs, especially on Blu-ray, at some point. It's 0079-era but non-canon. It's gritty and very aesthetic-forward. Hand-drawn animation with IMO the best soundtrack of any Gundam show.
Sounds simple enough to me. But it's the not understanding the decisionmaking process of companies like bsky at times like these that makes me glad I moved to a different PDS.
Is there any tangible risk to non-compliance for the blacksky PDS? Or is this a Target-style pre-emptive acquiescence on bsky's part?
The first couple weeks, HxH Nen Impact was a lot of fun. But 1.5 months in, the meta has degenerated to basically disconnecting your opponent's controller within the first 0 to 6 seconds, and sticking chewed gum in the port for the remainder of the game. HnK with the occasional dropped TOD. F that
I've only seen it twice cause I hate that kid. But I just saw that David Hayter is Bernie in the dub. I may need to watch a third time...
My Up Next queue on PC:
I'm sure Game Pass has grown significantly since I last had a subscription to that. I wonder how much worse things would be from a choice paralysis standpoint for me if I had it? I'll have to wait til I get a job to find out.
I think it's a side effect of the smorgasbord gaming mentality I grew up with. From demo discs to roms to demo downloads to piracy + cheap DVD+Rs to disposable income + Steam sales.
Back when I could afford Netflix, I once found out the queue limit was 500 entries by getting the process of browsing and adding to my queue without watching anything down to a science. With 1600+ Steam games, I realize I am now doing the same with PC gaming. At least there's no monthly fee.
It's wild that the good guys have no candidate to vote for in most elections.
Update: it got funny again
Economic policy expert Aya Ibrahim says President Trump wants control over the Federal Reserve so he can slash interest rates and "run the economy as hot as possible," without much care for the impact on average people. https://www.democracynow.org/2025/8/27/federal_reserve
When I think "single player fighting game" I think Red Earth, except that game had vs mode even with its 4-character cast.
Big news, friends! Next week we’re officially announcing our studio and revealing our very first game!!! We’ve been pouring our hearts into: the world’s first single-player roguelike fighting game!
As a parent to a child who required intervention nearly three years ago bc she was teetering on the brink and needed us to step in… the rage I feel in my heart at this is very nearly blinding. Fuck ChatGPT. Throw it into goddamn Mt Doom. Destroy it. Destroy the culture around it.
Back in my day, you could order gunpla in bulk from Japanese web stores and save something like 50 to 70% compared to US prices, even including shipping. I would just throw in whatever was on sale since shipping prices were in brackets that always left extra room in the box. $5 Valvraves and such
You don't have to actually read any comments to know they'll be some bland flavor of "Black sky??? Well what if I make..."
Had a shower thought of offering companies 6 weeks of unpaid consulting during the initial call with their recruiter, just to get around my experience being disqualified for not being with a company if I were to do open source work. Christ... I have 9yrs company exp. But it's never enough.
I just went through and searched for the ids of all of the deleted videos from my custom fighting game mix, and re-added 9 bangers that had been deleted. Dunno why they nuked the duel music from Pokemon Card GB2, but it's back!
I don't fault them for putting out new stuff anyway tho. Like Roc Marciano is still consistently good. The Alchemist, Madlib. Producers still got it cause their careers work differently I guess.
The hunger that made them legendary turned, at some point, to satisfaction/complacency with their previous accomplishments. The new Slick Rick album is a case in point. It's way, way, way worse than Art of Storytelling. New Weezy is unlistenable. Liberation 2 was awful. Etc. etc.
I feel you. The one good thing about there being a lot less patterns in hip-hop music these days are that they're very distinct, so it makes sense to strongly like some and not others.
Yeah. 7 outta 10 for me overall. But much better than Raekwon's new joint tho.
Another job where I didnt get past the recruiter call phase. Asked for feedback. "Not enough experience."
Ghostface Killah, on the other hand, knows how to pick a damn beat.
It's a save-anywhere anytime game. Including during fights and conversations.
Hollow Knight on a high-framerate monitor using a Pokken Tournament controller and wearing headphones is amazing.
I logged about 3 hours in Hollow Knight, most recently in 2023. I think it's time to actually start and finish it now that I won't have to wait indefinitely for more when the time comes.
Playing Guilty Gear Strive for the first time in about 3 and a half years. This game is a lot of fun. Lots of people being online all day is the biggest fighting game qol buff I've experienced in the past year. Discord fighters are a drag.
Leading global experts just confirmed what we’ve long known: Gaza is in famine. At least half a million Palestinians are facing starvation, acute malnutrition and death. And it’s likely to spread. The U.S. government is not a bystander to this genocide. We can end it today.
We've had the original for decades, and still do.
I don't even care about asking for matches. But when you ask and it's crickets in response, or you're forced to deal with people who don't have home training and act funny when they win/lose, it sucks. Gimme the soulless matchmaking so I can just run sets against a variety of playstyles
Being a fan of Discord fighters means I'm playing some uniquely cool and fun games, but not being able to play when I want makes it all kinda not worth it. What fun is a game you just don't get to play? @2xko.riotgames.com will hopefully fix all that by being free. I just wanna be able to play.
After years of driving a manual transmission car, I've been wondering all the while at what point I can say I've officially learned how to do it. It finally came to me. Not when I stop stalling, not when I can heel and toe, but when I experience that sudden loss of time because it's too routine.
Target was a shopping staple of mine until they mysteriously went out of business last year
I just realized that I haven't heard the term "mowing the lawn" since October 7th. I guess since they've been "mowing the lawn" literally every day
Before it's about how war is terrible, it's about selling model kits and toys. Tomino wasn't really happy about any of that at that point.
It's a shame that none of these AI platforms explain just how unreliable these things inherently are. It's a total scam. Even I had to try several times to use it before I finally gave up as a software engineer. It cannot code, even if you think it can.
Overheard my mom deciding what car parts to buy after googling a problem and reading the AI summary. Had to stop her and explain that if she doesn't know the answer already, she can't trust what the AI says.
Shoutouts to the inherent setup to punchline timeline of reading some foolishness on here, then hovering over the profile to peek at a bio that says something admitting they do that nonsense for a living
Mobile Suit Gundam (The 08th Mobile Suit Team) - Episode 10 - The Shuddering Mountain Part 1 09 minutes 35 seconds and 817 milliseconds
Something similar could be said about the Devil May Cry sequels or Resident Evil remakes. I never felt right about Snake's English VA, though. Japan kept their original cast, but not us. Felt like personal Hollywood fandom was being put over fan's wishes. It's nice when we get what we want.
If you're into J-Pop, then fine. But 80s and 90s vibes stole my heart. Especially the ending themes for Armored Trooper VOTOMS and Gundam 0083.
Save Sazabi ver.Ka, the queen, for last. Qubeley anytime tho
Hi. Hello. GRAMMARLY IS NOT A WRITING TOOL. IT IS SURVEILLANCE CAPITALISM AND LINGUISTIC HOMOGENIZATION IN A TRENCHCOAT.
Tangentially-related, but in my experience, fighting game tournaments are not safe spaces for women. Men get aggressive with them, and spiked drinks are too common. I imagine something similar happens with Pokemon competition as well.
If Paypal really got hacked, they would automatically invalidate all the passwords and force us to change them. I found a site saying that at worst, it was Paypal logins being stolen via malware, not Paypal itself being compromised.
Before I can even wake up, some Die Hard movie is playing at max volume. I start yet another day with stress I can do nothing about.
I've been here 3 months now. I don't know how much more of this I can take, or if the damage will ever heal.
Ben Shapiro's podcast is playing at max volume in my mom's house. My only way out of this living situation is to get a job. No matter how qualified I am for the positions I apply for, I always get a rejection without any conversation.
That comment is funny, given:
The Zeon suits go hard because they didn't plan on making toys for the bad guys, so there were no design restrictions. Cyclops eyes, pipes, and spikes 🔥
When I get a no-human-contact rejection from a job I know damn well I'm extremely qualified for, it makes me wonder who the hell else they got that's done the thing for hundreds of hours *and* has a background in the work they want done with it.
Ute yo, ute yo, ute yoooooooooo
Translation: You're a bitch. Wasn't hot back then, and you're a certified lame now. Say it to my face bozo. (He's definitely talked to someone SPECIFIC)
The big news of the day is—Strange Scaffold got a front page spot on Steam! It’s our first-ever publisher sale!! You can get EVERY GAME we’ve ever made for 60 bucks and I did a bunch of work on the gradients and colors to make it all look pretty!!! Ahhh!!!! store.steampowered.com/sale/strange...
There's a certain category of fast food (that one) that I stopped eating at almost entirely as soon as my income got high enough to afford the slightly-less bad alternatives. But I've been broke for a while now. So I eat at these types of places occasionally. It rarely ends well, gastrointestinally
started randomly diving into certain food companies and then found out that said company lobbied against free and reduce lunch for children because they knew kids wouldn't eat their fast food as much anymore golden arch company is BEYOND evil, bro
This is the most important, insightful thing you can read about the AI mania full stop. Share it with anyone who might be buying the hype but considers themselves rational. It gets to something really key about AI: it's not "just" a scam: it's an illusion that preys on our urge to fool ourselves.
Thank GOD My Hero Academia is on its final season because Crunchyroll are just showing their ass non-stop and ruining the projects they are hoarding left and right. #Animesky
re: generative AI I have finally fully and accurately explained my problem with how it’s marketed and used. And now, you can use it, too.
I'm beyond excited for this. Fingers crossed there's an arm swinger locomotion option, since you're mostly sprinting around everywhere. PSVR2, Quest 3, and PC would all be great fits, too. Shoutouts to games that playing H3VR trains you for. RE8, RE4R, and now this.
Time to put on that headset, babe. I Am Your Beast is coming to VR. 🐺
"I see all children as precious and equal. My deep care for children doesn't stop at any border," Rachel Griffin Accurso, better known as Ms. Rachel, says of her advocacy for Gaza.
A rare Mehdi whiff. But we need good candidates who are good leaders, not just vibes or qualifications
I've been making mix CDs and custom playlists for about 25 years. I think this one is my best yet, even though it isn't quite ordered or cleaned up. I recommend hitting shuffle. #blacksky #hiphopsky
I'm so embarrassed for everybody
Today i worked on a little bit of level design, a little bit of marketing, a little modeling, a little animation, some porting work, and story writing. 🥲 Wishlist so I know it's all worth it ♥️ store.steampowered.com/app/3465190/...
What an insane way to find out that Cuomo is practically certainly on the Epstein list. NYC, y'all know what to do. Those of you that somehow can still afford to be residents there, anyway. Everybody I know or am related to has left for upstate or NJ at a minimum
Ah, an infomercial for the Power Pack, sold separately
