@GenePark fantastic four is a huge disappointment.

i've been checked out of marvel since Loki. besides fantastic four, what do i need to watch, if anything, that has direct buildup to Dr. Doom? not this story, i'm talking a real foreshadowing to the character

@PluribusPod @whatadyke_ also, there's A LOT we don't know about their relationship yet

@whatadyke_ I think this is over-simplifying their relationship. I think Helen absolutely believes Carol is capable of greatness in her writing but is just too afraid to take that leap.

please dont cancel me but this is part of why i dont think sturstead was a great couple 🤐 how do you love someone completely while also thinking their lifes work is just meh cotton candy harmless crap?

@NoMansSky still the game is not what you promised

10 years 😅

@nostalgia_haze @Jonathan_Blow @bonzajplc lol who the fuck are you?

@Jonathan_Blow @bonzajplc This is the type of game you make. Shut your mouth.

If a game development studio claims that it uses “craft coding” or that there is no AI involved in making its games, there is a strong chance that they are lying. I’m coming back from a gamedev event where I hosted a panel on the use of agentic AI in game development. Not a single person said that they were not using AI. Across the entire event, we identified only around four artists who openly opposed the use of AI. They were actively looking for work.

God its so cheap Its so fucking cheap

@JakeFromware @Jonathan_Blow @Reply_Addict they teased TES6 eight years ago, isn't that enough time?

@maxarus @Jonathan_Blow @Reply_Addict It is a deeply foundational and architectural technical problem with how the engine is designed and implemented. Changing it would change entire production pipelines and take a very long time, making it a dicey business decision (but a great game design decision)

People still don’t get it. Bethesda’s object permanence is what makes their worlds feel alive and reactive. You can drop items anywhere, build crazy cheese wheel shrines, leave the world in whatever chaotic state you want… and it stays that way. No other game (Cyberpunk included) has fully captured that level of true persistence without compromises. Loading screens exist for a real technical reason here .. they let the game actually remember your impact on the world. I’d rather quick loads than losing that immersion any day. The trade-off is worth it.

@0x2A2A2A2A @Jonathan_Blow @Reply_Addict are you telling me that Bethesda studios are not aware or uncapable of fixing that?

@maxarus @Jonathan_Blow @Reply_Addict Because its a hard problem to solve when you're working with existing tech that uses loading screens as a barrier to changing scenes. The hardware is more than capable. Like most perf things today its deemed not worth the investment.

@Jonathan_Blow @Reply_Addict so why do they do it? are they dumb? is it a design choice?

@Reply_Addict There's no reason that you need loading screens to do this on modern computers.

@Oklahoma_Brave I'm so glad you're not the one making the movies.

I always remember the scene from Interstellar where, near the end of the film, Cooper comes back and is reunited with his now aged daughter in the hospital where she is dying. I think that scene, FAR more than any other, revealed Nolan's shortcomings as a human being. She is surrounded by family, presumably Cooper's grandchildren and great-grandchildren, all of whom would have grown up hearing about her father, who had managed to do the impossible and harness gravity itself to send the much-needed information that would make their survival possible. Rather than be amazed and loving and happy to see him, they all act like complete strangers and leave without so much as glancing at him. Murph, his daughter, who had spent her whole life working in unknowing collaboration with her father, whom she has now known for decades to have not deserted or failed her, barely has thirty seconds to spare for him, and essentially shoves him out the door to go hook up with spacebabe on the planet they're headed toward. ...and he goes, leaving this huge family he takes no time to meet or get to know, to romance a woman whom he's known (from his perspective) an extremely short time, and until now has had very few seeming indications of romantic interest that Murph just seems to "know" psychically. This is awful writing. This is awful characterization. This is an inability to allow for basic human drives.

@realjtlopez what if it's about a billionaire who secretly fights criminals using a costume and gadgets?

i don’t think we’re ready for that eventual robert pattinson led christopher nolan movie

@emkenobi we would achieve world peace if every wealthy person had the integrity Matt Damon has

“10% of teachers are bad” “Well where did you get that?” “I don’t know” It amazes me how comfortable some people are at lying.

@TomSchnauz wait you believe the planes did it? lmao

There needs to be a study why smart, talented people go absolutely off the fucking rails into insane conspiracy, because he was not always like this. He needs to believe he is so smart that he understands the "real conspiracy" while the rest of us our blind. It's sad.

@Zvbear you're not black

Maybe I’m black and dumb But can somebody explain to my why it can’t be squeezed to fit all that (pause) in the smaller screen

@pieichOK "Messi's provided the lubricant and they penetrated" lmao

I’ve seen these guys first handed around here as well 🤣🤣🤣

@MGalarche boludo me partió al medio cuando lo dijo

Usted sabran disculpar el foquerío pero "para mi vieja que nunca dejó de tender mi cama" es la frase más maradoneada que ha sido pronunciada en los ultimos 25 años

@ArrepentidosLLA "Inadmisible es que vos seas el presidente de esta gloriosa Nación, hijo de puta"

-Qué opina de los jugadores con la bandera de Malvinas? -Las Malvinas se recuperan desde el plano diplomático. No hay que mezclar las cosas. Ciertos ERRORES son INADMISIBLES Inadmisible es que vos seas el presidente de esta gloriosa Nación, hijo de puta

@Ayanarinashi Crimson Desert be like

A perfect plugin doesn't exis-

@valigo you got self owned by Harrison's quote.

This is the reason why Doom: The Dark Ages flopped. Doom is not about the story. Doom plot should fit into a post card that says "huge ass dude breaks demons faces for 15 levels, and then he kills a huge ass fucking demon while metal music is playing. The End". Instead, they went for some biblical lore bullshit, and to add an insult to an injury, the main villain is a fucking millennial chungus instead of some big ass scary demon. There is a famous story that Mark Hamill retells every time, how Harrison Ford said to him that a little story discontinuity doesn't matter for Star Wars, and if viewers notice it - they have much bigger problems. This is exactly the same deal. When you see people discussing a plot of a Doom game - you know something went terribly wrong.

@PopBase btw it's clear that none of our data is safe with them

Meta is removing Instagram’s latest AI feature following a negative response from users: “Earlier this week, we announced that one way for people to generate images in Meta AI is by @-mentioning public Instagram accounts that they want to reference. Our intent was to provide a useful creative tool and to give people control over whether their public content could be referenced in this way. We've heard the feedback that this feature missed the mark, so it's no longer available.”

@Martin_Watkins7 @001Oxygen I'm argentinian and I agree.

@001Oxygen No, no it’s not. Cape verde 2nd goal. Unbelievable.

Messi Technique is insane. This goal should win the goal of the Tournament. It is the hardest goal scored at the World Cup
