AI being pumped into everything. It drives me absolutely nuts that every fucking thing has to have AI. Now you can buy a laptop that uses AI to write an email, just so the receiver can use AI to summarise it. We’re going to start using computers to develop enormous amounts of crap before we finally realise that putting the effort into writing, reading, drawing, designing etc. is actually worthwhile. Don’t get me wrong, I see several use cases for AI where it’s very good, and studied genetic algorithms at uni (i.e. software that can rewrite itself given feedback on its output), but what is being pushed on us now will just encourage laziness and ultimately be a detriment to humans in general.

Fuckn YAWN Everything has to be a franchise now doesn’t it? They already butchered The Hobbit by turning a short story into 9 hours of crap by padding out and blatantly making shit up. It’s not like all these “safe bets” the studios are making are paying out too well at the moment, so why not try taking some smaller risks with new and different projects? I’m sure Hollywood is flooded with people with original ideas and scripts that are being bypassed because Fast And Fuckaround 11tyone needs to be made because money.

Street Fighter was OK, wasn’t it? I’m asking because I haven’t seen it since I was a teenager and my sensibilities may have changed since then.

Check out the first Mario Bros movie (1993 I think?) if you want to feel your brain vomit out your ears. How they got to that story with the source material is anyone’s guess.

At least be consistent with it too! I don’t know what it’s like in the States but internationally we don’t get 7/16" bolts or whatever, we get 10-gauge or 8-gauge etc. What the fuck does that mean?? And wiring too: no 8mm wire, no no let’s have 6AWG. Jesus christ it’s like they enjoy making life difficult.

True! We used to use pounds, shillings, pence as our currency and I’m very glad I never needed to deal with that shit.

I get SO frustrated when I see a date like 4/3/2024 and have to spend time trying to figure out if it’s the 4th of March, or if some US company wrote the software I’m using and it has defaulted to silly format.
- Comment on Over 100 staff at Just Cause developers Avalanche have unionised 8 months ago:
Cool, is there a chance they will make a good Just Cause game again then? I loved JC2 but was so severely disappointed with JC3 that I never played them again. Stupid loading times, a world that felt empty and constant popups telling me xXxBlazeIt420xXx had beaten my score at something I didn’t care about absolutely ruined it.

The Maxx, yes. Great comic, good cartoon too. Damn it now I have to go and read it again.
- Comment on While everyone is watching the world stage and some are predicting WWIII, isn't there a good chance that the USA is getting close to some kind of civil war? 1 year ago:
Is that the Behind The Bastards Robert Evans? Love his work.
