    Widow's Bay

    Honestly, felt a little disappointed in the finale. Not sure why, pretty much hit all the points. Kinda felt like it ended abruptly. Didn't see the twist coming at all, but I'm sure others did.

    Kinda funny...before going to the Iron Throne, I did just the entrance area to the Foundry, freed Toobin and the others. Afterwards they were all freaking out and discussing where to hide the bodies. 🤣

    Yeah that's weird. Daddy Duke should've been dead in that scenario.

    Well, it would be a game over if you could do that.

    After failing to dominate the Netherbrain at the Morphic Pool, the Emperor pulls the party into the Astral Prism. There, you can choose to have the Emperor consume Orpheus or free him. If you free Orpheus (using the Orphic Hammer), he becomes controllable like a summon pet.

    Yeah but you look hideous. Can't do it.

    Spider-Noir

    Just finished watching this tonight. While there wasn't a lot of action, that was perfectly fine. I found the story genuinely interesting. Cage truly carried the show, however. I believe that if anyone else had played that role the series wouldn't have been nearly as fun.

    An evil durge ending is pretty bad ass, though. In a horrific sort of way of course.

    I think this is an awesome idea and something RPGs need to adopt. I imagine, in the future (if/when tokens become cheap), is to have a completely AI run city, country, even world where it truly feels lived in.

    I've been working on a prototype of a game I had in mind. Claude was able to generate more than acceptable graphics for that. But creating a fun game is extremely difficult. I'm quickly learning AI can't really help you with that.

    Nintendo Switch 1 and 2

    This. Granted, I only played TotK but I assume it's the same in BotW, but pausing the game to scroll through an item menu during combat? Completely breaks any flow. What kind of retarded game design is this?

    Yeah, I've never used Cowork. Just Claude Code CLI and, for work, we're stuck with Copilot CLI.

    I can't say this has been my experience, but it may be due to my workflow. I follow a structured process: I first have the model fetch the ADO story and write it to `story.md`. The story already includes Given-When-Then scenarios, which provide a solid foundation. It then reads the story...

    That's the problem I have is that there's no good way to judge which model is appropriate for a task other than feels. So I just crank it up to the max.

    For our team, most individuals were unaware of AI coding agents until quite recently. There were no mandates requiring anyone to use them. Instead, only a small number of people expressed curiosity and experimented with the IDE plugin. Then, a few discovered the CLI and enthusiastically began...

    So, some asshole exhausted our credits, and now we're having to code like cavemen for the rest of the month, I guess. Is anyone else having this problem? As developers, we have zero visibility into how many tokens we're consuming, what the limit is, or if we're approaching it. Not only that...

    Masters of the Universe (2026)

    Born in 72. I watched He-Man but was never my favorite of the animated shows. I favored GI Joe, Transformers, and Thunder Cats. Now, Thunder Cats I would *love* to see a version reimagined for now adult viewers of that 80s cartoon. Just stop trying to make this stuff appeal to newer audiences...

    I only ever found 3 and 4 to be funny, and that was because they were directed by David Zucker. I much prefer the Airplane! humor.

    Guild Wars 2

    I get what you're saying. Guild Wars 2 progression is horizontal not vertical. I hated it at first, but once I became more casual I loved it. Once I got ascended gear I didn't care anymore. Just do whatever I want.

    After updating CachyOS, my audio suddenly stopped working. Upon investigating, it turned out to be the same god damn problem I had encountered before with other distros.. a failure to properly configure the ALC-whatever audio on this MSI board. I remember looking into this in the past, and no...

    Oh, it'll go away when they realize no one is watching the shit. Again, they are trying to make "content" for an audience that doesn't exist.

    Stargate SG-1

    The newer audience they're desperately chasing doesn't even watch long-form sci-fi shows. They're glued to 15 second TikToks, Instagram Reels, and YouTube shorts. So while they're busy alienating the older fans who actually kept this franchise alive for decades, they're left with nothing.

    Probably for the best. SG1 went on for 10 seasons. What more could they do in this universe?

    Windows 11

    Anthropic showed off what looked like a desktop environment that built apps on the fly. So, yeah, certainly possible but would be super expensive to run.
