- Comment on Borderlands 4 release date now set for September 12, plus a new trailer and deep dive are out 3 days ago:
I didn’t really like 3. Gameplay was fine, but there were too many annoying characters to make me want to replay it.
Tiny Tina’s Wonderland dragged on so much and felt like a lot of inept pandering. So I wasn’t as grumpy about how there wasn’t really anything beyond the first playthrough. I remember just running through a bunch of areas towards the end just to finish it.
- Comment on After ‘Suits’ and ‘Royal Pains,’ It’s ‘Psych’s Turn for a Potential Revival 3 days ago:
Because everybody involved including the viewers has to go through the whole process of separating wheat from chaff. And OMG is there a lot of chaff.

It’s not ripe yet. Sure, the green is gone, but the brown spots haven’t started to show up yet.
- Comment on Google Kills Software Support For Many Nest Users, Eroding Trust In The Brand 4 days ago:
They already screwed people that owned the original Nest years ago when they forced a new app (Google Home iirc) and closed off the API. The reason I was willing to get it was I could hook it into my home automation. I ripped that thing out of the wall and got a dumber zwave Honeywell.

Many criteria are used to pick best in breed for the cyberdog category including traction, the total length of wiring, and quality of audio equipment (especially the subwoofers).

In Blue Eyed Samurai, the main character brushes off several life altering injuries like she’s a character in a jrpg.

The subject attempts to find a comfortable sleeping position but cannot because of the recently installed bones.

The pop song remix in the background is so annoying, but I’m glad to see there’s some Sanctuary Moon in there.

That’s when I stopped watching the Office.

That reminds me of all the Olibur memes.
Once I figured out the plot to every season I stopped watching.
A lies to B to protect them. Something happens to B because they didn’t know the truth. Truth comes out anyway. Reconciliation. Rinse. Repeat.

- Comment on Would you rather be trapped in Groundhog Day or the Truman show? 1 month ago:
Groundhog Day. At first, I’d expect it to be incredibly fun, but then I’d expect a vast loneliness to set in. Nobody can understand your situation, you cannot grow relationships, and everyone else stays the same while you continue to grow. But eventually I expect that you would adjust mentally and settle into a routine, similar to how happiness tends to eventually return to baseline levels after culture shock or a major injury. So, you know, like the movie.
- Comment on Tesla for Sale: Buyer’s Remorse Sinks In for Elon Musk’s E.V.-Owning Critics 1 month ago:
A number of defectors from the Tesla brand said that a deal-breaker was when Mr. Musk extended his arm diagonally upward, palm facing down while speaking at an inauguration event for Mr. Trump, a gesture that resembled a salute used in Nazi Germany and fascist Italy.
Why are they still tiptoeing around it? It is a Nazi salute.

Yep, the opposition to it is right on Greenpeace’s website. Was interesting to read elsewhere about just how much of an outlier golden rice is when it comes to the usual objections to GMOs of patents/corporate evils, the consequences of the modification (e.g. pesticide resistance in plants leading to overuse and resistance in pests), and purpose (alleviate malnutrition as opposed to increase profits). Thanks for pointing me at something new to learn today.

Can’t they just take a play out of the corporate playbook and come back as Greeenpeace, a legally distinct entity, after transferring assets to the new entity indirectly while the old entity becomes insolvent?
