Same. I switched 13 years ago and for the life of me cannot understand why more people didn’t make the same switch. It’s so cheap

Got drunk and played megaman 11 with siblings, passing around the controller, cracking jokes about how megaman’s ow sound seemed weirdly gay and horny in this one. I was so bad I kept getting him hurt and it sounded like a gay porn.
My sister asks “isn’t that supposed to be a robot child?”
Me: “He’s been a child since the 80s and his voice is lower now. He’s a megaMAN now, and how dare you demean the short king fighting for your safety over his robo masochim kink and short stature.”
Brother: “yea he can’t help he was built that way. You’re a monster. Don’t kink shame”
Me and bro: -glare-
Sister (who is in a poly relationship and very much the alternachick of the family): “….what the fuck is happening here?”
Single player games are still fun when played together.

You’re absolutely right. We really should have more than 2 political parties.

I see what you’re saying but it’s splitting hairs. The rich guy uses an airplane more often that others do so he’s more likely to die in a plan crash simply because he’s more likely to be a plane the first place.
- Comment on Ubisoft Co-Founder Claude Guillemot Dies In Plane Crash 2 weeks ago:
Let us assume 2 people fly in planes. One of them does so 10 times a month. The other 10 times a year. The risks are higher for the 10 times a month flyer.

Because those important people are more likely to be in a plane than unimportant people.

Megaman legends 2
Silly kids game, lots of fun, early dungeon crawling, but they snuck in heavy philosophy.
There is a scene where the protagonist is recalling long forgotten memories. The last living human, in luxury, in extravagance, in exactly what techbros want today but actually achieved here, has a perfect system, a perfect world, serving his every whim. A world without poverty, disease, suffering.
And he is lonely.
He befriends a bit in this system charged with keeping order. Basically a cop in this world. But he gives him special privileges to be able to “think” in ways the others are restricted from. This one is special. He literally creates a friend.
Then he uses the incredible technological prowess to recreate suffering.
He creates a synthetic recreation of humans, designed to be vulnerable to disease, to hunger, to suffering. They are subject to pressures that simply delay their deaths. And through doing so they achieve meaning and happiness. They exist.
The master watches them, like fish in an aquarium, for generations. Eventually, he goes down to earth to fully experience them. Thousands of years of disease free living have basically robbed this last human of an immune system. He is vulnerable there. No force in the universe can take him out. Man has become god. And yet, he goes down there anyway.
To experience the smell of a dinner bearing prepared.
He dies. Before he does, he released the bot that brought him down to earth from the rules of the system that governed him and told him to burn it all down. Perfection was not a remedy, it was a curse. And then he dies as the bot holds him in his hands, watching him fade away.
This was a game for children. And I understood way too much of it.

Gears was great but the pacing was uneven. The story didn’t flow and progress. It surged uncomfortably. And emeralda never got an omnigear, which I’m still pissed about.
Ep 3 was a different style but wasn’t bad. Ep 1 was a good storytelling and battle style but you could tell they were still finding their way. Ep 2 was just….ugh. The into with asher being deployed was gorgeous though.

Xenogears/xenosaga. I liked them. Xenogears had a bad disc 2. Xenosaga had a bad episode 2. Saga also went overboard with the needlessly sexualized robots. But it was guns dan the story decent and by episode the graphics were really good. Music was good, characters were enjoyable.
All I remember liking from episode 2 through was jr charging a religious zealot screaming “you damn bitch” while firing at her. It was such a weird scene I was laughing my ass off. Of and the American censorship had a scene where a little girl going through a breakdown scooping blood from her mother and trying to put it back in the corpse, except there’s no blood in the US version so WTF are we supposed to think is happening here? Ep 2 was horrible.

Apple does honestly make good hardware. Their transition to ARM had a near zero chance of being successful but Apple managed to pull it off anyway. It’s truly impressive.
But when they fuck up, boy do they go big. The butterfly keyboards were absolutely insane. And don’t get me started on the last years software releases. I can’t practically multitask on my iPad anymore, screen space is wasted on the MacBook in Tahoe and the finder is worse than it’s ever been. Competition is supposed to save us but Microsoft is so smitten with AI they still can’t even get their start menu to work reliably. Meanwhile linux is gaining faster than anyone thought possible. Valve is doing to gaming on Linux what Ubuntu did to teaching neurotypicals how to use Linux.
Western tech gave up.

That makes sense. AirDrop rapidly switched the wifi radio between the network minis connected to and the adhoc network with the sending device. It’s effectively running at half speed with a clever trick.
Airdrops only problem is the proprietary nature of it but it’s a good solution that works very well. In the PC market, they still can’t get Bluetooth right. They never got Miracast right either. Microsoft half-asses everything they try which turns apples cool idea into the only way to do something.

Overlapping squares shrink into the character performing their move. You attack or counter based on the opponents reaction to you, you sync your response to the squares which train you timing. Different attacks have different timing. Gust of wind dance is complicated.
