why are humans such shit, how can you do this shit

My SO basically dragged me to the one in Santa Fe and it was one of the greatest things I’ve ever experienced. I thought it was gonna be you know, modern art, mildly interesting but ultimately boring, but I was wrong. It’s unbelievably cool. Words fail me in explaining how fascinating the idea and its execution are.

This isn’t my cat

Brother, I’ve got some news for you.

A decent Diablo-like hack and slash with addictive gameplay for sure. If you get it on sale, it’s worth it if you like the genre. It does have some bad design decisions.

The bad: even when you’re not in a dungeon, the map is always pathways, not open. This plus no quest markers and only one travel gate open at a time means you do a lot of mindless looking around for stuff and painful backtracking. The procedural equipment drops are tedious though they can be filtered. Their naming conventions are overly-verbose and terrible. The soundtrack gets repetitive.

The good: the game’s skills and trees make sense and make you can feel pretty OP if you give it some effort and thought. The crafting is actually useful and you get a generous amount of storage (that can be upgraded to ridiculous levels). The lore is deep and if you’re into that, there’s a lot of it and it’s fairly original.

One successful launch and it will be up to $350. The stock market is illegitimate.

Oh look, capitalism trying to sell you something by calling it a solution to your problem. The problem that it created in the first place. This doesn’t seem familiar at all.

Oh I’m pretty certain none of their code is written by AI. If you read what he says carefully, he’s most impressed with how it can identify issues and guide the project to what needs attention. They’ve loudly complained about low-effort AI submissions previously, so AI code is not what he’s really talking about here.

AI is absolutely killer at issue identification and is getting better. He knows, as they all know, they won’t be able to survive without it going forward because if it can identify vulnerabilities for them it can identify vulnerabilities to anyone.

I’m guessing you wouldn’t like Alien: Isolation because it’s basically all hiding and strategically trying to outwit the alien… while hiding. But it’s fucking terrifying and very well-written.

I read this entire comment and I don’t regret it.

Worse than that, the printer I have, a Brother MFC-J895DW, actively eats its own ink on purpose (in the name of keeping it from drying out). Like most people, we print infrequently and I noticed that like every other time we would go to print we would be out of ink. After a bit of searching I found out this was a known thing and it was done on purpose.

I now turn the printer on to print and off when not printing. I haven’t bought ink in over a year. Yeah the print heads need to be conditioned if you go too long between prints, but so what.

Fuck the comment section on that site is cancer.

Well I can’t speak for the whole world but by my Windows usage dropped 100% from 2025 to 2026.

What a load of bullshit.

Edit: This post is irony.

Wow that’s impressive. The thing was built like a brick. I had one back in the day and had several games (all of which I downloaded and am running for the nostalgia hit).

One game I found I never knew existed is Tron 2.0. I can’t believe I never even heard of this game, I would have been all about it. The nice thing about the emulator is it has an upscaler and games in HD are absolutely dynamite, especially Tron 2.0.

Are we still sure that LHC didn’t break something when they found the higgs boson? Like sure sure?

I’m not, personally. LHC high-energy collisions timeline:

• Start of Main Program (at 7 TeV): March 30, 2010
• Run 2 (Upgraded to 13 TeV): Started in 2015
• Run 3 (Upgraded to 13.6 TeV): Started in 2022

To me, these dates all track to changes in… things. That’s probably crazy, I am probably just nuts. Which is lucky because:

• High-Luminosity (14 TeV with 10x collision capacity): 2030

I’m sure it will be fine.

tbh the wonders of the Feral PC Army include several groups writing console emulators. I am successfully running: Wii, Wii U, Switch, OG Xbox and PS3 emulators as we speak. I understand Xbox 360 and PS4 are also out there, but I haven’t got 'round to them yet.

Interestingly, a lot of media for these emulators is just kind of laying around on the internet for anybody to download.

Yeah it’s Luigi Mangione Fever sparking the class war, not the morbidly wealthy CEOs fucking us all off to die. Typical new MAGA MSM bullshit headline.

It’s more rigged than anybody wants to admit. It was down 500 today. It will be up 600 tomorrow.

Edit: And so shall I say it, and so shall it be true: +522.53 today, Jun 30, 2026

In the kangaroo court in which a mob ousted me, Wikipedia’s administrators showed that they don’t appear to value details like formal charges, a designated prosecutor, basic decorum, distinction between prosecution and judge, dispassionate adjudication, and so forth

These hypocrite fucks always rail off at the mouth about how abused they are… and it’s always just to get their foot in the door. Once they run the show, they rewrite history, dole out all the abuse they want and face zero repercussions. Intolerant shits that the rest of us simply must tolerate. Well go fuck yourself Larry Sanger. The world doesn’t need more right-wing bullshit.

I mostly used postgres in my work but we had one master server that had to be oracle for reasons so I took a class. The class mostly taught me that I wanted nothing to do with oracle.
