I hope Nintendon’t

Remember that tagline from the 90s? “She’s does what Nintendon’t”?!

I can’t remember what they were doing, maybe allowing blood in Street Fighter 2 and Kortal Kombat but by MK2 Nintendo changed their mind

ricecooker,

Looks amazing, like a whole new game with all new characters. The only DLC I’ve played was for Bloodborne, so I’m not familiar with FS’s approach, but if Old Hunters is any indication, this is going to be so good!

ricecooker,

He was not portrayed very well in THE LAST DANCE, and it was heavily narrated by MJ. He was to blame for breaking up the team, but it wasn’t that simple given the contracts and aging team.

Kinda what’s going on with the Warriors right now.

ricecooker,

Let’s revolt and bring back web rings!

The horrible morals of a show supposed to teach them

I’ve been watching the various Star Trek shows for a while now, and while not finished I saw most of them, I believe. And I cannot shake off the feeling that the messages given by these shows, especially (and almost exclusively) recent ones are pushing horrible morals that most people seem to not care about....

ricecooker,

The writeup on Section 31 is very good and was following along until you listed almost every couple on DS9 being in toxic relationships. Maybe you’re confusing relationship conflicts with toxicity? Maybe I don’t know what toxic means.

I’m pretty good at seeing different sides of an arguement, but you’ll have to do a lot more convincing on Kira/Odo, Jadzia/Sorf, Sisko/Jennifer/Kassidy being in toxic relationships. These relationships work for me because they are trying to overcome cultural and professional challenges. One character might not budge on something but overall they try to work things out.

ricecooker,

There were some Korg music creators on DS and 3DS.

ricecooker,

In the 90s, my cousin had a Super Wild Card, an awesome device that you put into the cartridge slot of your SNES that allowed it to play games off 3.5" floppy disks. Every time I go over to their apartment I would play all day long.

ricecooker,

Yeah this thing!! Blew my mind.

ricecooker,

I would be onboard if I can kill Benny an infinite number of times

ricecooker,

Harden and Westbrook…I guess that was the the only post-OKC combo left

ricecooker,

CGI jowls!

ricecooker,

I feel the same way. The writers do such a good job integrating ST lore that it just really displays their knowledge and respect for the universe.

Off the top of my head:

  • random references to made up Star Trek words and concepts, like Ponfarr and Chadeetch (I’m not looking these words up)
  • getting to revisit 1 off species. Everyone loves the metaphor aliens (TEMBA ARMS WIDE OPEN) so it’s fun to bring them back and poke fun. It’s basically the Airplane scene (“Excuse me miss, I speak jive.”)
  • Characters are very aware of various ways to die as red shirt

It’s a fun show

Now that we're finally out of reddit, can we finally get different tag for NSFW and NSFL?

For the uninitiated, generally NSFW is for sexual contents and NSFL is for gory contents. People may want to see one but not see the other at any time for any reason. I have seen this feature requested over the years in Reddit but it never happens. Maybe now some instance can finally implement it?

“Steve, your numbers are down. We have reason to believe you have not been viewing enough pornographic material at work.”

ricecooker,

Has Sonoma broken anyone’s apps or workflows?

ricecooker,

This one always stood out to me as being kinda random. Maybe it’s just a visual gag seeing Einstein play ball

ricecooker,

I was just getting comfortable with the idea of Paul rearing up the 2nd squad.

ricecooker,

Being able to say this out loud is a big step. +1 emotional maturity. +1 admitting he’s got a problem.

I’ll not deny that he has passion, but someone really should have reigned him in. It only hurt the game when it inevitably never delivered. Who comes up with game features on the spot to the media? No respect for the people who actually have to make the game, sheesh.

ricecooker,
  • Librarians: for Enchanted books. It’s so much help in the beginning of the game. The best ones are Fortune (specifically to increase the amount of diamonds mined from 1 block), Efficiency, Mending, and Unbreaking. These will help you make the perfect pickaxe to mine mats. Silk Touch and Looting are great too. They sometimes trade library books, paper, and bookshelves which are nice too.

Everyone else has some unique trades that are nice too, but they are mainly around to trade for emeralds (to buy more enchantments)

ricecooker,

Cybersecurity mainly for their customers. I guess the data they gather can show trends. Fuckin’ gov-sponsored hackers, man.

ricecooker,

4/5 for me when I saw it in 2002. It was so good Scorsese made an English language version and won Oscars. I think I view it in the context of other HK gangster films, which are numerous. There are definitely some tropes I think I “fall” for (bad guys having morales, bad guys with personalities like good guys), but overall I found it very original.

ricecooker,

Actually!!! I was trying to think about a cop and bad guy switching roles and though of Face-Off when I was writing my comment! what a coincidence

ricecooker,

God mode. You can turn it on and every time you die, you get a little stronger. I remember the game asking me if I wanted to turn it on.

ricecooker,

Haha, how good? On my own, I can probably solve a Tuesday, maybe if lucky a Wednesday on my own with no cheating. The proper nouns get me all the time.

ricecooker,

While I played and enjoyed it, I expected a lot more from Obsidian (makers of Fallout New Vegas). I loved going from planet to planet and exploring. Love the VATS system from Fallout, so that was nice to have here. The graphics are aces, but sometimes I think they spent too much of their time on buildings and textures vs designing levels. The planets themselves seem a little “shallow.” There are like 5 locations on a whole planet to check out, and there are roads the you need to stick to. The Obsidian sense of humor is here. I’m not trying to be a hater though, just an Asian dad.
