Smb 3 is probably one of the most defining jump’n’run games ever made. Lots of fun to this day. Must play.

Mega Man. If you only play one, play Mega Man 2. The other ones are fine too, if you enjoyed 2.

Startropics. Action adventure similar to Zelda, but honestly probably more enjoyable nowadays.

Earthbound. Unlike the FFs it never got a remake, so it’s really the only way to experience it.

Burning oil is just the kickflip-onto-rakes version of killing people.

I wish they wouldn’t try to use all that blood as lubricant to get the arm back out again.

The amount of pressure and training and abuse girls have to go through to become professional ballet dancers shouldn’t be acceptable for anything. It destroys your hips, knees, feet and fucks with your body image and eating habits like few other things. Maybe there are more modern schools with less abusive methods, but I doubt it. My ex was repeatedly told, she would never amount to anything because her butt was to big. As a dancer. At 13. Fuck ballet.

Anybody found the respec NPC yet? I forgot to put points in dopamine production and the cooldown on the consumables is really annoying.

There are also barely any younger people. The demographics of Japan are the worst of pretty much any country and their complete adversion against anyone not Japanese is not helping. They are projected to have 10-20 million people LESS within the next 20 years. The villages and small towns are already emptying, everyone is old as fuck and their economy is stagnating for 30 years.

The doomsday clock is ticking for all of us, but Japan really does a speedrun of societal collapse. More quite and polite than in the US or elsewhere. But thorough and devastating nonetheless.

Valid concerns, but image recognition is absolutely something neural networks are good at. Finding a pattern of pixels in a set of greyscale images that point to a “cancerous growth” vector and then highlighting it in a diagnostic program seems like a very appropriate task.

It’s a simple but very large data set, it’s a very specific task and it doesn’t require 100% deterministic truth, because doctors really don’t do anything else but “that bit here looks a bit darker, we need to check that”. It’s a good application of a powerful technology.

As long as you don’t make it write the report, give it the power to administer or deny biopsy, integrate a chat bot, need a data center the size of belgium and fire your oncology department, that it.

Know-it-all improv guy vibes I think. But out of all the comedy drop-out people, he’s the one that never misses an opportunity to make a anti-cop, anti-capitalism or communist reference, whether in scene or out of it, or really whether anybody wants to hear it.

And that does strike me as a very communist thing to do.

The joy of shooting the auto crossbow is visceral. The crunchy clink of nailing a little crystal spider to the wall is so satisfying, the bolts might as well be hitting my dopamine receptors directly. It’s amphetamine gaming in the best possible way.

Top 3 rogue like, maybe action game of all time.

PS: Fish can roll.

If you listen to their episodes concerning the actual victims and deeds of Epstein, his change in tone and demeanor is sometimes so stark that it’s a bit scary. He sounds deeply emotional, empathetic and filled with a burning rage against it all.

Honestly, True Anon would not be bearable if Brace wasn’t turning the goofball up to 11 sometimes. There is only so much reporting about our disgusting pedophile ruling class you can do, before you need a palate cleanser of some kind.

Refreshing Cold Milk Hotel

Bubbly upbeat pop songs, but still horny about Anne Frank.

That one thing from Rick and Morty that was funny for a week or so.

Is this the AI already cannibalizing itself? Just producing weaker and weaker nephews on the basis of currently “powerful” people? It looks like someone was playing with the DNA of Mr Beast, Don Jr and Connor McGregor, but the ai prompt was “wiscosnin guy boy man suit”.

Conspiracy theory: It’s a ploy to make the Ai image piss filter seem more normal and validate it as an aesthetic choice instead of being the signifier for the lowest of low, the ultimate slop garbage devoid of any humanity or anything interesting.

The size of the US national debt does not matter. The US will always* be able to pay its debt as long as its the central economical/political/military force on this planet. It can always make more dollars if it deems that necessary and always has done so in the past. And as long as you build functional and necessary state things, every economist and every journalist that points at the debt needs to be bullied and stuffed in a locker. Debt matters to nations depending on IMF/US loans and that’s an entirely different issue.

However if all your burger nation pays for is bombs, genocide, brown shirts, fat cops with tanks, wall street losses, ai bubbles, real estate bubbles, jeffrey epstein flights and failsons crack adventures abroad… You might not get a good “return of investment” as they say and you devalue your own currency for very little long term benefits.

But these things in itself are already dissolving the societal connections much more than an additional 0.5% inflation due to debt. The real “inflation” is the direct result of ever increasing rent seeking, quasi monopolies, disfunctional social systems and the short term demands of share holders. I.e. captialisms core mechanisms. And the real damage is not to your financial health, but is literally just large scale physical and mental violence to an ever increasing amount of people.

*Total collapse/balkanization not included

…Hex Bear? Like the animal?

Yes Snake. Your contact in Pakistan. Named after a radical communist resistance group in Karachi. It got destroyed after repeated ideological struggle sessions involving cats, but it’s exceptional meme skills still inspire the common people to this day

Those satellite images and it’s descriptions invoke a lovecraftian horror of scale and vertigo in me. We have the phrase “a perfect storm” and that’s the one.

“Unimaginable violence is hiding in the eyewall” is just straight up a Cthulhu description. And the exhausted hopeless scientists just ever and ever repeating, that yes, it’s our fault, we made it, we called it and if we keep burning the planet, more and bigger ones will come.

Basically the two modes of my ADHD

They look the inverse animal of each other.

It looks like one of those animals where the popular rumor is “They actually should not be able to fly! We still don’t know how they do it”. That is, of course, wrong… It’s clearly thrown like a snowball for fun by larger animals such as bears and apes to get enough lift under it’s tiny wings.
