    The Witcher: Blood Origin

    I don't agree with this at all. Being a creative force behind a respectable show, bowing out and watching it go to shit is valuable in several ways. At a purely self interested level, it being terrible is better for Henry Cavill.

    The Witcher: Blood Origin

    Henry Cavill making this and leaving the series when it turns into deaf gay midgets kissing cements his credibility as an actor and showmaker.

    https://www.brandonsanderson.com/state-of-the-sanderson-2022/ The books will not be on Audible for the foreseeable future. This is a dangerous move on my part. I don’t want to make an enemy of Amazon (who owns Audible). I like the people at Audible, and had several meetings with them this...

    It's so bad. I've lived in a house with a comfy garage for over ten years and haven't had to deal with that problem but i still remember being a dumb teen driving to my job at McDonald's with my head out of the window so i could see.

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    I don't know finance but as a layman a plausible money laundering scheme looks like: 1. Investor donates $$$ to CIG by going through some "individual donator" pipeline such that they are reported as crowd sourced $$$. 2. Some portion of their publicly disclosed staff: Development team are either...

    Chat GPT AI

    No idea. I've been kinda looking for a programming problem I could feed it that is even close to relevant to anything I do. A big problem is that when programming you're not really sure what the desired input, design or output is and the implementation is driven by arcane or obscure systems...

    Chat GPT AI

    Would be interesting to see ChatGPT's accuracy against popular questions on leetcode. https://leetcode.com/problemset/all/ Looks like this guy tried it: I could definitely imagine that a journeyman programmer would be able to increase their coding challenge throughput if they got good at...

    Warhammer 40k

    Inexplicable is right. She was the wrong casting choice, her writing was trash, her costume/makeup design was trash. I'm not a huge fan of Triss but it's like they wanted to take a Geralt fuck-witch and add some depth but had no idea what to do other than make her annoying and ugly.

    Everquest - Live Servers

    Who wants to see a sloppy AF first kill of the hardest group content in the new expansion??? I never thought I'd be exploiting achievements by having a mage zone into an event, call of the hero the group to drop aggro and then gate out and do it 2x more times, but here we are!

    Warhammer 40k

    The petty bleating of a coattail riding sheep being ignored by the lion. Henry Cavil can do no wrong and will make this WH40k TV series the greatest scifi space opera since Battlestar Galactica. I don't even care what era or plotlines are used but the more that the astartes are kept as...

    Everquest - Live Servers

    It's really strong. I switched from war->sk and from melee DPS to mage. I'm also using the mage pets as tanks and having them generally attack mobs 1,2,3 on the ETW, so the SK only needs to really tank anything above that and can focus on using their 2H + DoTs. SKs have such good group mana...

    Everquest - Live Servers

    New EQ expansion today! I've revved up a new crew with SK, Brd, Sha and 3x mages ( Tuco's Setup (Critique Welcome!) Mk. II ). They cut their teeth on ToL like Broly on Vampa and are going to murder every sparkly owlbear in Night of Shadows.

    Andor

    The factory prison is one of those suspension of belief arcs where you want to show how the empire has labor camps but you also want to show its ruthless pragmaticism in a scifi setting. In a universe where a kid can built a fully functional bipedal droid that requires basically nothing in terms...

    Andor S1 is the best season 1 of any tv show ever made. It's almost wasted on the star wars universe where the ridiculous bullshit marrs the world building it tries to do.

    Totally disappointed by this game. The MMO space needs more sandboxes and fewer theme parks and this had a lot of compelling ideas that they never could implement.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    For me it's not a marketing thing, it's a "support shit you want thing". If I found out that Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader (CRPG) was cancelled, which I preordered about 5 seconds after it was announced, that they were going to stop accepting pre-orders and all the preorder money was gone for...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    I've got no problem preordering for a game concept or company I like and want to support and encourage avid gamers to do the same. Blizzard and Diablo4 are the furthest from that.

    I just re-upped for 3 months and bought the expansion. I'm rolling a new shadowknight and have a monthish to get them to NoS fighting shape to replace my warrior, a tall order given how little time I have to play. Going with shd, brd, sha, 3x mag. The lore in EQ is an indecipherable fever...

    I Iove this show. It almost feels wasted on the star wars IP. Like it's basically it's own thing that just happens to have tie fighters, storm troopers, etc. The prison scenes are great. A fascinating black mirror episode about a dystopian prison factory tucked into a space opera. The Mon...

    Witcher 3

    Yeah and since they're on unreal engine 5, it will be muuuch easier to support open modability. Would be great for the gaming community if game devs were more willing to open things up, especially if Epic reduced licensing fees if they opened up their art assets or code.

    Dante's Divine Comedy

    I'd love a rewrite of Dante's Divine Comedy that strikes a fantasy novel prose instead of poem. Something like The Hobbit, Moby Dick, Count of Monte Cristo or Don Quixote. Dante's Divine Comedy is such a huge part of western and literary culture but the consumption of its text is infeasible for...
