Yep...Elno is well on his way to that $1T pay package alright.

When I want to remind myself of the beauty of human-generated art in the digital space, I just pop on either of the Horizon games (Zero Dawn or Forbidden West), Ghost of Yotei, or Expedition 33. AI is neat and all, but nowhere close.

I won the lottery! My prize? $7. GTFOH

I never realized just how toxic my Amazon experience was until for the umpteenth time I encounter a situation at my current role, think about how similar scenarios played out at Amazon, proceed to do the complete opposite of what was done at Amazon, and get a good outcome.

Xbox updates always drove me insane. This is exactly why.

That moment when you've fired the team that knows how to do the job correctly so you resort to citing WalMart and DoorDash regarding inflation and prices.

This is not a serious company. I'm wondering how bad it will be when it implodes. www.bbc.com/news/article...

I've been watching The Witcher on Netflix. I never read the books so don't have the same baggage other fans might. I liked Cavill's performance as Geralt - he's a lifelong nerd so I imagine he dove head first into the lore to try to bring it to life. Hemsworth doesn't bring the same energy

A guy I knew ran for local political office. He sent me a message asking to vote for him. My heart sank: 1. He was running as a Republican 2. He advocated for the same BS about taxes and spending all Rs do I never knew in all our interactions that he was a conservative. I couldn't vote for him.

Just discovered Star Trek Lower Decks, and it's probably the most faithful and Trekkiest of any new Trek in the last 10 years.

Playing and enjoying the crap out of Ghost of Yotei to escape that we live in the dumbest reality where a quack pot can say Tylenol causes autism, get our stupid president to endorse that and get an attorney general to sue Tylenol because of it.

There's a YouTube channel with full episodes of talk shows from the 90s, and I haven't been able to watch anything else since stumbling on it.

Did they do a Lupin? They definitely did a Lupin 😂 www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

All this energy to march and protest...none of this to energy to vote to keep him out of office to begin with. I see you.

I occasionally watch cartoons bc they slap sometimes. Avatar TLA is actually one of the best TV shows there is, Teen Titans Go is slick with it, the Amazing World of Gumball has depth, and Gravity Falls is surprisingly dark for a kid's show.

Despite some small amount of mission repetition (like Ghost of Tsushima), Ghost of Yotei is objectively awesome and an improvement on the first game. The fact they acknowledge and include the Ainu in the game slaps. If you know your Japanese history, including the Ainu is kind of a big deal.

Judging the effectiveness of your troops based on their appearance is not a winning strategy. Small rant: I spent several years in the armed forces. I met a skinny, lanky dude on a deployment who turned out to be a SEAL who PTd circles around everyone. www.forbes.com/sites/antoni...

Is it just me or do MacOS updates suck now? My first Mac in a few years and I don't remember these updates taking so long. Been waiting damn near 30 minutes.

Ok. Ghost of Yotei kicks ass.

After being a consultant for several years, I always thought that I wouldn’t be “that client.” The one who was demanding and difficult. After dealing with consultants for a year as a client, I get it now. You ask for A. They can’t do A the way you asked. They deliver B and upsell C. It’s madness.

"...gamers would play as a Black man who had been formerly enslaved in the South... Recruited by the series’ Assassins, he would return to the South to fight for justice..." OMG. 😳. I would have played the fuck out of that game had they made it.

I've said it before but 10 y/o me would be completely blown away at all the awesome games that exist today. Ghost of Yotei is out while I'm salivating over Clair Obscur...

Am I the only one who instinctively thinks "Asshat" when I see someone driving a Cyber Truck?

1 hr into Clair Obscura: Expedition 33 as a change up from AC Shadows. WOW. Gives FFX vibes, only better, and the soundtrack is amazing.

Legit question bc I’m confused. I’m on Blacksky as in it’s a tab in the Bluesky app, and I love it there. Does that mean I’m already on Blacksky? Or is it its own app? Do I have to migrate to something? I see posts about moving to a PDS but I’m confused. #BlackSky

Wait, what? There's a new gen 007 game????

“Oh no, we’re losing support where we normally have loyal voters,” says the loser party who refuses to do what the voters ask or to meaningfully fight open Fascism. apnews.com/article/new-...

This was diabolical 🤣🤣. He did a great job staying in character but you can tell when he was trying hard not to break. The fact a few folks can't tell this is satire makes it even better. youtu.be/WWiSaPMgMic?...

Four words that should transport every elder Millennial to their childhoods: "You died of dysentery"

I've said this earlier, but we shouldn't idolize billionaires. They are human. Susie left Warren bc she was having an affair with her tennis instructor, and he lived in SF. Warren was so obsessed with Berkshire Hathaway that he neglected his family. finance.yahoo.com/news/warren-...

One of the most beautiful games I ever played. I think about it almost every time I'm near a coastline.

Ordered something online that cost less than $100 and got a bill for the import duty from the shipping company for $30. On top of the shipping and fulfillment I already paid when I ordered. Are we winning yet?

I hope everyone has the good sense to disregard any ‘health’ information from Secretary Worm for Brains and President Dipshit and mock them relentlessly bc that’s the appropriate reaction.

Things Fall Apart

Muting mentions of the MAGA Jesus (or MAGA martyr, or MAGA Mother Theresa, or whatever deification they bestow on him) has done wonders for my skyline.

What film do you consider perfect? I could rewatch this flick over and over and not get tired of it.

Not a Luddite per se, but just one more reason why I don't use AI that much as I try to teach myself programming. I'm giving C++ a go. I'm trying to figure out why something isn't working. I find and read the documentation. I learn not only why it didn't work, but multiple ways to do it right

I realized I'm 80 hrs into AC Shadows and have not done most of the main story missions. Running around the map, exploring, raiding castles, and killing bad guys has been entertaining enough, Ubisoft-isms aside. Claws of Awaji looks interesting but not compelling enough for me to switch up yet.

Dame Dash is a ridiculous person, but his Breakfast Club interviews are hilarious.

Trantor. Dusk just killed Day and took back the throne.

Obviously D (except Australia. You can keep that vegemite shit).

Luckin Coffee >>>> Starbucks. By far. I loved getting Luckin during my Asia tour. www.cnbc.com/2025/09/16/h...

It's 1989. My parents' friends come over for dinner. They ask my folks if they've heard the new Janet album or seen the music video. My folks say no. After dinner we turn on the TV. They pull out a VHS tape and put this music video on for all of us to watch and rock out to.

My favorite Robert Redford movie was Sneakers. Effortlessly pulls off the leading man role in an Ocean's 11 type heist. RIP, Robert. Also, the entire cast of this movie was freaking phenomenal.

I spend most of my online time either researching something or listening to a podcast in a topic I'm interested in. I'm constantly in "school". I spent this week taking online deep learning classes from Nvidia. I loved learning as a kid and it's super easy to learn anything these days.

Thriller Songs in A Minor Only 2 albums I’ve listened on repeat and didn’t skip any tracks

TIL that Thundercats is 40 years old this year?! I grew up watching this in the mornings before going to school.

I want to live my life in such a way that the last words people hear coming out of my mouth aren’t about bashing trans people.
