  • Work smarter, not harder

    Jump

  • The name got bought, and somebody else reopened some. Mostly just a section within Macy's, but there's a handful of actual stores.

    Except Canada, apparently. That's the only original Toys R Us left.

  • China to ban hidden car door handles made popular by Tesla in world first

    Jump

  • Look, it's very simple.

    In the event of power loss, simply disassemble the rear door pocket, open the small hatch down there, and pull the cable to open the door. While concussed. And probably on fire.

    I don't know why people are having such a hard time with it.

    I'm not even making those instructions up, btw.

  • They asked if the car had passed the safety test. I said I'd paid for the car to pass the safety test. They said welcome aboard.

  • We gotta gut this house to the studs if we're gonna keep it standing

  • Good News: The UK looks like it has finally broken the two party system.

    Bad News: The new party is run by an even worse grifter who has his tongue up Trump's arsehole.

  • What kind of stupid rule is that?

  • You guys are getting free bread?

  • Just adorable

  • I'm guessing by the belly on that lad, that he doesn't get out of that chair much anyway.

  • Ubisoft Fires Team Lead For Criticising Stupid Return-To-Office Mandate

    Jump

  • They released one game last year that I'd expect to make money (Assassin's Creed 14).

    Not sure how they're actually in business right now. Surely they need more than that to stay afloat. None of their microtransaction games are whale milking machines like EA's FIFA/Madden or Activision's COD series.

    I'll kind of miss them when they're gone. They've always been the least evil of the big publishers.

  • You won: Microsoft is walking back Windows 11’s AI overload — scaling down Copilot and rethinking Recall in a major shift

    Jump

  • After pushback from users? Or after realising how much it's costing them on the server end?

  • Norway’s crown princess had years of contact with Epstein, files suggest

    Jump

  • Wait until you find out about hereditary peers...

  • What's an objectively terrible movie that you love anyway?

    Jump

  • Street Fighter

    It's terrible. Almost nobody can act. I suspect none of the writers had even looked at the game beyond a few screenshots. The script and plot are laughable.

    But then Raul Julia shows up. He knows this is crap. But his kids love the games. He's literally dying of stomach cancer in every scene. He knows this is his last movie. He's going to fucking enjoy it, and so are you.

  • What's an objectively terrible movie that you love anyway?

    Jump

  • Oh it's bad. You'll guess the main plot about two minutes in and it never waves from that. The movie ends and you won't remember anyone's names or even what most of them look like.

    Great music video though. Watch with a good sound system and a big OLED TV. The experience on a little phone or laptop screen with tinny speakers is going to be a 1/10.

  • I'm guessing it's like the UK where they have a monarchy but they don't actually have any real power.

    Well, aside from the usual rich person power of being able to commit all sorts of crimes and get away with it.

  • Spotify and Major Music Labels Sue Anna’s Archive for $13 Trillion

    Jump

  • That's about 20 bucks though.

  • Games you really want to play, but can't or won't?

    Jump

  • I think the base game is really a testament to the fact that CDPR have a lot of success with open world games, but don't really do them very well... They make really solid campaigns, and then pad them out with utter nonsense that kills the pacing stone-cold dead.

    "Oh hey, here's something really urgent. We cannot stress enough how urgent it is. By the way we've also just unlocked about a hundred side quests. Enjoy!"

    I'm still salty that I missed one of the ending achievements because if you follow the instructions it gives you, it will cause a fail state on that particular ending.

  • Make sure to make a save at the appropriate point so you can do both paths.

    Jump

  • I found it rough near the start, but it gets a lot easier as you go on, once you get more of a feel for when attacks are coming. Eventually you'll be dodging things you've never seen before just on instinct.

    Dodges are a lot easier than parries, even if you don't get the extra AP from it. Fights last a bit longer, but you can definitely plough through most of it even with bad timing. Explore thoroughly in act 1, otherwise you'll probably be underlevelled for the last boss there. Not really any need to grind mindlessly, but you can if you really need the extra levels.

  • Do yourself a favour and get the Ultimate Edition. Phantom Liberty is the only real reason to put yourself through it.

  • Dystopia has been here for a while

    Jump

  • If you buy something for that price, I hope you have somebody who can come and get you when it fucks up and leaves you in the middle of nowhere.

  • After Years of Waiting Jellyfin Finally Lands on Samsung Tizen TVs

  • I actually had that happen on the Android one a few years ago. I'm guessing the Apple one is years behind.
