Vampire reminds me of Spencer's posture when he talks. As for the season, we'll see how busy I am w/ other stuff when the time comes.

I haven't watched them. There is a tangible connection between characters beyond what's in the episodes but they do a good job of introducing and establishing them to enjoy the show as-is. First 2 episodes are solid. "For our friend, Ray" 😢

Played it for an hour or two last night, it's just ok. Not far in, but feels like the kind of game you play from a subscription instead of just buying it.

I didn't even think to question how long he'd be around this season. Second episode certainly has me wondering though.

An orbit-lowering burn went for 127 seconds instead of 84, resulting in the crash. https://spacepolicyonline.com/news/luna-25s-engines-fired-longer-than-planned/

Surprised they haven't done more of this kind of thing sooner. https://www.xbox.com/en-US/accessories/console-wraps/xbox-series-x

Roscosmos reports their Luna-25 lander has crashed in the moon. It had an anomaly yesterday that last I saw they thought they had recovered from. Guess not. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-66562629 Meanwhile India's Chandrayaan-3 is doing very well so far, landing in a few days.

Nice, I missed that Payday 3 was coming to Game Pass.,

2 episodes in, wondering how far they're going to take some of these threads. Taking Prince down after some ups/downs feels like the predictable outcome of the season ... what if they turn that around and largely fail (with Axe carving out his own victory)?

Loosely related? https://kotaku.com/grand-theft-auto-5-gta-6-mod-ai-npc-legal-youtube-1850749678 Example from the article of the mod generating AI conversations:

I really enjoyed listening to the bulk of West Wing Weekly rewatch podcast too. http://thewestwingweekly.com/index

Next Starship launch from Boca Chica could be as soon as 2 weeks away on 8/31. Probably won't happen, but that's part of a notice recently sent out, looks like they're starting to carve out potential launch windows.

This is back next week, releasing weekly through October.

After messing with the tutorial for a bit, hoping to get a lot more time with Desynced when I'm not playing Madden, WoW or BG3.

Anyone get put in jail in the goblin area? 2 of us did, a little bit of time apart... the first one didn't realize they took your gear and stuff and hadn't gotten it from the equipment chest. Once we realized both those characters were missing gear we went back and only the 2nd person who got...

The dev is Grimlore games, so Spellforce 3 dev, rather than Crate Entertainment.

S7E1 up early on Paramount+

I skipped the musical episode. Hell of a season, quite the finale.

That could be pretty fantastic or suck, with very little room in between.

So any sign of a modern game using the EQ IP on the horizon, MMO or otherwise? Or they just cranking out expansions and keeping the lights on for EQ1 and 2 indefinitely at this point?

Enjoyed S1 for the most part, may revisit it as it winds down to see what season journey stuff I can actually finish, but just tinkering from time to time between other things. Between 2 group and 1 solo playthrough of BG3 in progress, Madden next week, Starfield in a month and a lot of things...

Since the last post the next movie has been delayed indefinitely, as expected. Across the Spider-Verse is now available for paid streaming. Over a dozen featurettes on design, story, easter eggs, etc. Expected to hit Netflix by the end of the year via Sony's deal w/ them.

Just finished a full binge over probably 2 weeks of both seasons of Lincoln Lawyer. Just a solid forgettable lawyer procedural. Not really interested in a 3rd season, but in the absence of something else interesting would probably watch. Meh.

pressing G toggles grouping them together too. Also shift-c gets them all to go into cover/hide so you can stealth as a group.

Did you try swapping to the other API? (DX11/Vulkan) I've only crashed so far w/ my 4090 when I tried Vulkan.

Surprised you can't just make characters outside of the start of the game, allowing you to build a stable to pick from when starting/joining campaigns.

NASA launched a new site. https://beta.nasa.gov/ They're also launching NASA+, a modern free on-demand service for viewing high quality video.

Looks like 2024 GOTY has already been decided.

Heh, I finally saw my first temerity the week before S1 launched :| Not sure I'm up for a S2 either, but I'll have probably not regularly played for a couple months by then, so we'll see.

Doubt I'll kill Lilith or get level 100, the rest I'll probably do anyways over the next 2 weeks. May already have the 3 helltide mysteries unless that's wt4 specific and have killed at least 3 commanders. Only thing I'd have to go out of my way to do is the PVP bit, and already did the earlier...

Not playing PoE so couldn't care less, but for anyone interested here are the season objectives. If you've finished what you want of the battle pass and don't want the affixes, resources or titles then no, there's no reason to work through the season journey...

Wrapping up season challenges, basically, if any of that appeals to you. The upper 50s were probably the worst grind personally, not getting any rewarding items because my affixes and items were more than adequate and didn't feel like micromanaging small upgrades and just biding my time /...

New home UI is rolling out, have been using it for a bit and have liked the tweaks. https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2023/07/26/welcome-to-your-new-xbox-home/

Rough series, would have been better if it was released all at once instead of week to week IMO. Table is certainly set for the Dark Reign of the MCU though. Charlie's recap, thumbnail is a bit of a spoiler, so it's here:

Wondering if this Fury is going to end up either being a Skrull or a Life-Model Decoy. Finale and after credit scene(s) likely a launching off point for Armor Wars, The Marvels and the plot throughlines for the Captain America and Thunderbolts movies. Though would love if they pivoted, and...

Doubtful. Diablo is just one of a number of billion dollar franchises. Don't confuse bad with simply not for you. The game is far from perfect and needs a lot of work, but it will do well and continue to do well as they make changes season after season. Many will play all of them for the...
