    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    I'll play it if it gets at least a 7/10 on metacritic for user reviews. Andromeda is a 4.9. ME3 is 5.8. ME2 is 8.8. ME1 is 8.6.

    Also I got slightly nauseous just looking at the lady who rescues you. She looks like someone who survived anencephaly. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anencephaly

    Jedi Fallen Order (By Respawn Entertainment)

    Played a little bit last night, just enough to start to explore the first swamp zone. Man do I want to like this game. I think I would love it if: I never played the Jedi Knight games and didn't know how fun a fast movement, freeform jedi game could be I didn't play twenty other slow-movement...

    How does that video indicate the skyhook will maintain velocity as it's launching shit away from earth? edit: we're probably saying the same thing

    Survivable in terms of a design existing that introduces fewer than 5gs onto a human occupant and offering substantial acceleration over a longish period of time? Yes that math can work out, but obviously the faster you go and the slower you accelerate the more mass and engineering you need to...

    Half-Life: Alyx

    Uncomfortably high chance. Everytime I look into VR they are moving away from seated FPS in VR and toward standing experiences with minimal ingame movement.

    I'd be kind of curious to know what new demands there would be for rare earth metals if the supply dramatically spiked. Like, if Elon Musk started dropshipping asteroids rich in ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium and platinum etc, would we start to be able to make arc reactors and...

    I'm a sucker for colorful and well designed cartoons, but I don't see a mechanical limitation to the tether as presented. One big problem with it is that there isn't an equitable amount of mass leaving and entering Earth. We're usually sending shit up and letting it de-orbit. It's rare that we...

    watched the vid, I wish there was a longer version that didn't have some soybeast talking over it, but I'll say we're even tonight. Mine has more crazy but yours has more menace.

    1. I'm not sure what you mean by intractable, but this is a very tractable problem, as in, the tech to detect the wall is a solved problem and they just need to improve the software to account for it. 2. You see a lot of these kinds of vids from tesla because they have the most human operated...

    Everquest - Live Servers

    People are encouraged to share whatever. If it wouldn't take 5 hours I didn't have to set up I'd love to play through ToV with my boxed group in beta. Right now people are saying everything is stupid hard which is exciting. But I'm betting it'll get nerfed in beta, so I'm missing my opportunity...

    EverQuest - If you could design your perfect TLP server

    What does p99 do to stop boxing? Would be interesting to see a free boxing server and a draconian no boxing server.

    EverQuest - If you could design your perfect TLP server

    The reason I don't play on TLPs is because 1: the content is stupid easy and 2: it's the same every time basically. So I've got two ideas: 1. shake things up, 2: make it harder I've always thought the TLPs could be more flavored and modeled after Path of Exile's seasons where every new season...

    I think people underestimate how much impact one developer or artist can have if they really want to invest a lot of time into something. "Jeff the artist, we have exactly 167 different outfits that MUST get textured, please stop creating hair options." "No. I was born for this."

    Delivery is a tough problem because you're competing against low wage drivers who will jump out of the car, grab the box and run the box up stairs and around whatever obstacles are present without too many instances of failure to deliver due to complex geometries or whatever. Sure you get some...

    QvOOcJB I wonder if autonomous vehicles will detect and respond to deer bounding around off the road. In Michigan if you see any deer near a road you slow your ass down immediately because A: their suicidal, unevolved asses will jump out in front of your car when they get spooked and B: if you...

    Where is the line drawn for time based achievements?

    He's got the world record for marathon at 2:01:39, and he failed to break 2 hours last year or whatever with this V formation drafting, so I imagine this record of 1:59:40 is close to the best he can do. So it only helps a few percent. 7299sec vs 7180, so with assistance he ran it in 98.37% of...

    Where is the line drawn for time based achievements?

    world class rings competitors look just as ridiculous because they intentionally skip every leg day. If you want to look good you should just do bodybuilding where you can work out like, 2 hours a week and look good. If we're going to be gay about it, I think physical combatants (boxers, mma...
