- Comment on NBA considering tournament-style format for 2025 All-Star Game: Sources 19 hours ago:
they did the elam thing for a few years and it was really only good that first time.
all these new formats are band aids over the real problem that players just don’t give a shit about the all star game, and nothing is going to change that. they need to just go the NFL Pro Bowl route and replace the game with a bunch of silly activities.
- Comment on Tom Hardy's Splinter Cell Movie Is Officially Dead 1 day ago:
dunno about budget, I’m just taking in terms of the demand for these types of movies.
- Comment on Tom Hardy's Splinter Cell Movie Is Officially Dead 1 day ago:
I have a feeling it’s because zany animated movies are an easier sell to kids.
- Comment on Withdrawal is going to make people go mad 5 days ago:
until the demand for it skyrockets.
- Comment on Why are most mobile games trash? 5 days ago:
agreed. I’m just saying “simple” or “complex” has nothing to do with it.
- Comment on Why are most mobile games trash? 5 days ago:
you can have simple games without predatory monetization. that’s what OP is talking about.
- Comment on Air fryers are simpler than you think, but still pretty neat [19:38] 5 days ago:
great. now I want a sunbeam radiant control toaster.
- Comment on Air fryers are simpler than you think, but still pretty neat [19:38] 5 days ago:
also the air circulation is more intense in an air fryer, and it’s a smaller enclosed space which is easier to keep at a high temperature. both of these also help food cook more evenly.
- Comment on Air fryers are simpler than you think, but still pretty neat [19:38] 5 days ago:
it’s the same general idea but they don’t perform the same.

ES6 will be fine. Starfield was doomed from the beginning because of the silly space exploration structure.
- Comment on Skyrim Is 13 Years Old, But Elder Scrolls 6 Is Nowhere in Sight While Bethesda’s First Four Games Took Only 12 Years 5 days ago:
unless you already played it for a few hundred hours and want something new.
- Comment on Skyrim Is 13 Years Old, But Elder Scrolls 6 Is Nowhere in Sight While Bethesda’s First Four Games Took Only 12 Years 5 days ago:
wasted too much time on starfield and FO76.
- Comment on KD Has Calf Strain 1 week ago:
seems like so many injuries this season.
- Comment on Haters will say it’s fake 1 week ago:
All that sounds like your subjective view not based on data.
- Comment on Haters will say it’s fake 1 week ago:
exactly. I think whoever was president for the last 4 years was going to take the blame for the massive pandemic inflation and get voted out. They were destined for failure from the beginning.
- Comment on Haters will say it’s fake 1 week ago:
I don’t think Israel mattered much compared to the economy if you look at exit polls. Biden/Harris got fucked with pandemic inflation and people are too dumb to realize it had nothing to do with them. And that will be further reinforced because inflation is under control now so Trump will look great having done nothing whatsoever.
- Comment on Veilguard Isn’t the First Dragon Age Game to Face ‘Woke’ Criticism 1 week ago:
The politics doesn’t belong in the media’s story and world. Like the creator(s) just added it in to push a message.
literally all of literature is created to push a message.
- Comment on Veilguard Isn’t the First Dragon Age Game to Face ‘Woke’ Criticism 1 week ago:
agreed, there is so much lore to criticize about this game but this is all i’m hearing about. i am playing it and it’s okay, but it’s probably my least favorite dragon age game so far. purely for game design reasons.
- Comment on Nikola Jokic's shrinking prime -- and the disconnect brewing inside Denver trying to salvage it 2 weeks ago:
Given the ownership doesn’t like to spend a ton I think Booth was kind of forced to go young given that restriction.
maybe but if that is the case they should have negotiated harder with MPJ and Murray. Then they would have had more money to work with for KCP or whoever else. Also Saric for $5m is a bit much.
- Comment on Nikola Jokic's shrinking prime -- and the disconnect brewing inside Denver trying to salvage it 2 weeks ago:
or they’re trying to force Malone to use the young guys.

eh I’d say 7 was peak windows.
- Comment on Apex Legends is taking away its support for the Steam Deck and Linux 2 weeks ago:
I was with you up until the shift away from multiplayer part. I do not see that happening at all, and I don’t even like multiplayer games myself. There’s no denying that more multiplayer has been the trend for the last 30 years, spanning multiple (people) generations, and I don’t see AI changing that.
- Comment on The NBA rookie class is off to the worst start in league history 2 weeks ago:
offensively maybe. defensively the wizards rookies are killing it.
- Comment on Are any games using neural networks for better hard AI that doesn't cheat? 2 weeks ago:
yeah I would like to leverage AI for stuff like RPG NPCs. instead of hearing the same filler lines for 200 hours of gameplay you could have a vibrant array of endless dialog.

he said he chose 31 because of reggie miller.

- Comment on NBA Emirates Cup Court Designs 3 weeks ago:
why are gray courts so fucking popular. I get it for the spurs and nets, but no one else should be choosing to have a gray court.

I think that is a different feature than what the article is talking about.

or just automatically load my last save please.
- Comment on Rudy Gobert, Wolves Agree to 3-Year, $110M Contract Extension; Updated NBA Salary Cap 3 weeks ago:
the missing piece is that he’s opting out of his $46m player option next year, so he’s taking a pay cut next season to get a little more the next two years.
