Humble Choice:

Fired this up today and all the lighting/shadows are broken and my character's settings (face, hair, etc) are different. Joy. Tweaked some settings and think I got the shadows squared away, but the avatar change is lame. Edit: nah, still fucked. Here is the default settings, ultra preset...

NASA released an image of Luna-24's crater. https://abcnews.go.com/US/nasa-releases-images-showing-33-foot-crater-left/story?id=102858139&cid=social_twitter_abcn

This could get really interesting. According to executives at the cable company, which has just shy of 15 million video customers, the two sides had been talking about a “transformative” deal for months, one that, in their mind, could help reinvigorate the pay TV bundle and provide a “glide...

Not surprising, some of that is the Game Pass effect. 288k viewers watching Starfield on Twitch, less than 18k watching BG3.

Amateurs observed an impact on Jupiter this week. https://www.space.com/amateur-astronomers-jupiter-cosmic-collision

You have 4 patterns you have to fit into the open slots. Can only get to the subsequent rings by filling the slots on the initial ones. Game feels kinda meh, but then before I knew it I lost an hour of my life to the ship builder (and didnt even save the design I was working on, lol).

Streamers have been playing online it for several hours with promotional copies.

Yeah I was about to buy the base game thinking I needed it for early access then suddenly started preparing instead of 'too early!'

Campaign up for the newer Samsung Ark. https://www.theinsidersnet.com/en-us/campaigns/info/66540/info.htm

My first co-op (2 player) game finally left Act 1 at 5 minutes past 40 hours on our save. My weekly 4-player run isn't going to get this far by Christmas unless they skip a lot, lol.

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.
