tormeh,

The reasons you’d ever want an Xbox used to be Halo and Fable. Now it’s, uh, I dunno, does anyone care about Starfield?

tormeh,

Played Horizon Forbidden West on PC and it’s such a grind fest. What’s even the point. Not sure why it gets such good reviews, except for how pretty it is. High hopes for God of War Ragnarok, though.

tormeh,

While true, I think your statement is misleading. No one should get all their news from one source, but Facebook is particularly bad, and TikTok is many times worse than that again. Facebook will show you the misinformation of the highest bidder. TikTok will do that but also be beholden to the Chinese government. Not sure if the content is worse than that of Fox News or the Daily Mail (that’s a low bar to squeeze in under), but they’re at least sneakier.

tormeh,

Funding issues, according to the article

tormeh,

I’m so confused. Did mushrooms help us increase our intelligence? I don’t get it.

tormeh,

That’s great, but of course it only applies to medication covered by the NHS. Otherwise it’s not prescribed.

Polish PM Donald Tusk warns that "literally any scenario is possible" and that Europe entered the pre-war era when Russia invaded Ukraine (www.dw.com)

“War is no longer a concept from the past. It is real, and it started over two years ago. The most worrying thing at the moment is that literally any scenario is possible. We haven’t seen a situation like this since 1945,” Tusk said in an interview with the European media grouping LENA on Friday....

All of GDP is spendable if the will is there. It’s not at the moment, but let’s see how this decade turns out.

tormeh,

All property is potentially subject to government seizure. Just like we’re all military reservists. These things are implicit, and we just hope and pray it won’t come to that. But total war is definitely on the cards this decade, at least for some countries.

tormeh,

Brew sucks. It’s soooo slooooow. Flatpak is awesome, AppImage is weird, and Snaps are kinda there as well I guess.

tormeh,

I’m using OSX for work and Homebrew is really slow there too. Honestly though that’s really my only complaint. That, and some aesthetic yank caused by it being a bunch of shell and ruby scripts in a trench coat, but that’s not an objective thing.

tormeh,

Dude. You played an RPG in spite of the story. There are better dhooters out there. Go play those instead

tormeh, (edited )

American weapon aid has already ceased. It’s truly dire on the front. What could get worse is if American intelligence aid also stopped. As hard as it is for Europe to replace America’s supply of 155mm, replacing US intelligence is going to be even harder. That is to say, it would be absolutely impossible.

tormeh,

I don’t think Putin has needed to do a lot of election fraud. He rules over the media, and has outlawed any serious opposition. I think of it more as an opinion poll than an election. For Putin I think unpopularity is a threat to regime stability, so he probably takes it seriously.

tormeh,

You have to wonder if they ever played Cyberpunk 2077 (incl. Phantom Liberty) before they came up with that line. The only AAAA game. Maybe not the best game ever, but it definitely felt like the most expensive game ever.

tormeh,

If you’ve played a game you despise for 60h then I think your opinion on that game is invalid and your opinion on games in general is suspect.

tormeh,

I think they just say that. If they truly hated it they’d stop playing, unless they get paid to play. What they have are gripes with the game.

tormeh,

@rebmasel on TikTok is amazing. Her readings of “iconic court transcripts” are gold

tormeh,

Some people play Disco Elysium and think the story and characters are lame. I don’t believe in a soul, but some people are more soulless than others.

tormeh,

It’s more that the bureaucracy is so complex and fragmented that it’s incredibly hard to digitalize. Lots of small fiefdoms that are entitled to make IT purchasing decisions themselves means paper is the only universal interchange format. In addition there is an unwillingness to change how things have always been done, or to simplify procedures. So there you have it: The German bureaucracy is too fat to move.

tormeh,

No, the way it’s often used is closer to “posh guest worker”.

tormeh,

Thought it was coomerman. I’m ruined.
