I don't really care until someone does something with them that actually interests me.

A lot of that is handled in some form or another though. For example if you make stone buildings that doesn't take damage and removes that tedium. In some armor you can ride out most tame storms because it helps against exposure. You can make tools with the resources you've earned from...

My group is playing about a prospect a week, though we've taken the last week or two off as I've been busy at a conference and the scorpions / weather changes are an added bit of difficulty that are still being tuned.

Yeah, it wasn't working for me and saw some headlines about them removing it. Seems it doesn't work for some browsers or something. Suddenly worked for me when I clicked it again when it said unavailable previously.

Sony removed the annual PS Now option from PSN. In-store gift cards were phased out in January. Window closed on long-term sub shenanigans?

Enjoyed Leto and the VFX. Overall though just not a well executed movie.

It's addicting. I spent a lot of money on Marvel Strike Force. Shit is also why we have no quality Marvel games similar to Marvel Heroes anymore - mobile is printing money.

At any point in time we have 2-4 subs going :| Dropping the free games from requiring it helped a bit.

Family plan, yaaaaaaay.

Thanks to gravitational lensing, Hubble has observed the light from a star believed to be 12.8 billion light years away. https://www.nasa.gov/feature/goddard/2022/record-broken-hubble-spots-farthest-star-ever-seen The newly detected star is so far away that its light has taken 12.9 billion...

Some simple things feel really cryptic or maybe less obvious than they should be? I played my first session briefly yesterday, and some blueprints were readily available (ie Drill v2) to craft but things like the upgraded backpack weren't. Like it a lot though, wish it was multiplayer.

They're less about performance and more about purpose. S outputs lower resolution, with similar performance in games for the most part. If playing at the highest framerates and in 4k is your priority, then you'll need an X. If that doesn't matter so much, the S is your pick. For example Halo...

Anyone messed with this yet? Going to have to give it a go later this week. https://www.emuvr.net/

Bungie going to war over some DMCA takedowns. https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2022/03/bungie-slams-youtubes-dmca-system-in-lawsuit-against-destiny-takedown-fraudsters/?utm_brand=arstechnica&utm_source=twitter&utm_social-type=owned&utm_medium=social Wish Google was a plaintiff though...

Officially 80 for the first time in 2022 in Vegas today. Will then hit 90 this weekend before we hit the showers.

Finally caught up on this, largely enjoyed it.

Caught up. Not much a fan of season 6, but the last couple of episodes are heading the right direction. Love the cast, but the shit they have Chuck doing compared to where this series started just feels so off.

3 episodes into season 6, and yeah, can feel it really turning. With Chuck in many respects representing his dad's money more than the law it seems at this point I feel like it'd be better if he was gone too and the people from his office just doing cameos occasionally or something when needed...

'the telescope is performing than models said it would' Dr. Becky talks a little bit about it, that the resolution of the focused telescope is .0000194 degrees. Spitzer is 0.0015.

No, she's just a big fan of super heroes / Captain Marvel and gets powers. Captain Marvel 2 is called The Marvels, as it'll feature Captain Marvel, Photon (from Wandavision) and Ms. Marvel.

To peers, lawmakers and the community at the initial stages. People are spending their whole career on projects like Artemis (in 2 years this project will enter year THIRTY) because it includes the development of the launch vehicle and everything over a period of decades. If/when Starship...

Going to need a new Thunderbolt Ross. RIP William Hurt. https://variety.com/2022/film/news/william-hurt-dead-kiss-of-the-spider-woman-1235203576/

RIP William Hurt, 71. https://variety.com/2022/film/news/william-hurt-dead-kiss-of-the-spider-woman-1235203576/

A few Star Trek Online ships joined the official Star Trek canon by making appearances in the first episode, if anyone's interested here's a twitter thread on them. Some awesome media in this thread: https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1500760856677675008.html And one more from his Twitter:

Halfway through season 3 (in the middle of ep 6 as I type this, as Wendy's short is exposed and Bobby considering a plea as Connerty finally gets to unload on the Rhoades family), this show stresses me the fuck out. The way it gets me to root for Bobby for periods of time, and Chuck constantly...

I liked Riddler a lot, but I'm a big fan of Paul Dano after There Will be Blood. Long movie, pretty good, not great. Could see this Batman existing in the same world as Phoenix's Joker. Some of the stuff towards the end was pretty eyeroll-level stupid, but I enjoyed the cast. Nothing worth...

So... that was OK, I guess.

Was excited about Shadow Warrior 3 until I realized it said Playstation Now rather than Playstation Plus.

Feels so claustrophobic. Will just play it on my secondary monitor, but for such a big release what a half-assed way to support it on PC between this and the framerate cap.

On Wednesday, February 23, 2022, the U.S. National Science Foundation’s Inouye Solar Telescope commenced its first science observations, signaling the start of its year-long operations commissioning phase and a new era of solar science...

I enjoyed it like I enjoy much of what PTA does, disappointed Philip Seymour Hoffman isn't alive to see his son's performance in this.

Might be worth a part time subscription, but like my Ubisoft one it'd be the first to go unless there's a good annual cheap option. I love subscriptions, hate the half-hearted attempt to copy Game Pass, but it's something. Before this stuff was more ubiquitous I got a lot out of the 10 hour...

I don't mind their client, that overlay though, oof.

Activision you mean? MS/Bethesda closed last year I thought.

Started this series this weekend, will finish the first season tonight. Can't believe I haven't watched this.

This Next Fest is always one of my favorite events. So far just played IXION, and it's pretty cool for a builder. Looking forward to seeing how that one turns out.
