Big agree on the ubisoft and assasins creed points. I’m also “playing through the second one” right now, though I’ve been on the Junon area for a month or two now, and I also haven’t opened up the game in a month or two. I just don’t think I’m ever finishing that game, which feels wild to me given the absurd amount of time I’ve spent playing and replaying the ps1 original. I’m just about as much of a simp for that story/those characters as a person can be

I thought ff7re (the second part of the remake) sucked ass compared to ff7r (the first part.) The first one felt like a cool modernization of ff7 that still felt like the same game at its core, but the second one felt like complete focus-grouped buzzword filled nonsense. And the most annoying fucking element ive ever seen in a video game, birds that would constantly fly around your screen squawking and generally just being a nuisance until you went and completed their little meaningless side objective. Even the combat aspect felt like a bad monster hunter clone rather than a final fantasy game

I mean, the woman was MTG. More accurately, woman who believes in Jewish space lasers that control the weather makes common sense statement! Bombshell news!

Whats wild is that I’d seriously consider going to church and playing make believe with them if they were putting 700mil towards like feeding and housing people. I wouldn’t even make fun of it or break kayfabe if I felt like being there was accomplishing anything worthwhile

Quantum computing is trying to be ai, in the sense that it does have niche scientific uses it excels at but tech bro types want it to be the next general computer so they can make their empire on it. The only use case I’ve seen it excel at so far is generating precisely tailored probability distributions, which end up mostly being useful for simulating different models for quantum field theory. Even then I’ve only seen that in looped fiber implementations, which imo are a stretch on the definition of quantum computer.

Every picture of Kash Patel looks like a pedophile protecting sack of shit. Pretty sure his eyes bulge out like that because he’s so full of shit it’s starting to push other organs out

Well, time to run for congress. My platform is “I am possibly the most autistic a person can be while still being capable of public speaking. Give me 2 months in office and I will memorize and publicly recite that shit. I will be resigning immediately afterwards. I have no other policy positions/will pursue no other policy objectives.”

There are more direct ways to call Schumer a limp dick coward, but this one is good enough

Kale chips are real easy to make and hold whatever seasoning you want pretty well. I say kale because that’s the best one to search for if you’re looking online for recipes, but the recipes you’ll find work with pretty much any tougher leafy green. Imo mustard greens go particularly well with msg seasonings; when I make instant ramen, I usually make a slightly higher effort soup base, and the unused ramen seasoning packets almost always go to mustard green kale or chard chips. I’ve never tried to make them last longer than a week or so, but its a dehydrated salted food. I’m sure they’d last a good long while if you sealed them with some kind of preservative or dessicant or something

The biggest problem with nukes is that they exist at all. The second biggest problem is that not everybody has them

Huh, TIL. Thanks for sharing your knowledge on the topic!

I switched from lemmy to piefed a few months ago. Most of my experience has been pretty much the same, though I do find that I have to block fewer people/communities to curate my experience on piefed. To use an analogy, piefed feels like lemmy with safesearch enabled. I like the experience with piefed more, but its a fairly marginal difference imo and I’d be fine to move back to lemmy if piefed went down or something

That’s a fair take. They were poised to outcompete/cause the extinction of local pollinators, yeah? (Not my area of the expertise or my corner of the US, so I admittedly didn’t pay a ton of attention when they were in the news)

I’d still split hairs and argue that they were sensationalized, even if there was a valid reason for doing so. Giving any <x> the moniker “murder <x>” is news speak meant to trigger an emotional reaction in the audience. I was in florida at the time and even people that far away were scared of “murder hornets” hurting their kids

I’d guess its a reference to the Asian giant hornet, or “murder hornets” as they were sensationalized a few years ago

“Murder hornets usually live in Japan, South Korea, China, and other East Asian countries. Scientists first confirmed their presence in the U.S. near Blaine, WA, in December 2019. Sightings continued there at least through 2021 and stopped in 2022.”

BS might take on a different meaning coming from that university now

Man, they barely even changed their domestic abuse excuse. “I swear I’m not beating her, she just fell down the stairs”. ACAB

“We don’t dial 911, we dial .357” is the full saying, at least where I grew up

Can anybody define the term “wilding” in this context? Is it a way of saying that ICE has been going out of control?

“Earlier this month, Madel said he helped ICE agent Jonathan Ross with paperwork to get Justice Department legal representation if he is sued or charged with a crime.”

What’s different about this one, you disingenuous piece of shit?

It strikes me as unintentional, but this post is a honeypot. I would not say anything here that I wouldn’t be comfortable with a Kangaroo court judge reading back to me on record
