I’m currently watching Deep Space 9 for the first time and The Visitor is the best 45 minutes of television I’ve ever watched, so I guess DS9 season 4 even though I’ve only watched a few episodes from it at this point.
I really liked it. I haven’t watched a ton of the anime, but I have watched more of it than the first season of live action covers.
That’s right.
Here’s a list of them that all did one good thing in 2021
There was a brief moment where I thought video games had to program every possible combination of pixels so it could react appropriately to what I was doing at any given time in a game. I had no idea how things rendered. I didn’t know they were individual sprites that animated separately. Thought it was all just one big thing and they had to draw every single possibility with nothing dynamic going on.
Then I played Wolfenstein 3D on PC and realized how impossible that would be in 3D. Funnily enough, those little pocket games they had in the 80s and 90s like Game & Watch kinda were doing exactly what I thought every game was doing, but they were much simpler games for a reason.
It’s well written and the world feels truly alien. There’s a lot of freedom in what you’re capable of if you put your mind to it. Like you can cast spells that will let you jump across the entire map in one go. You can levitate over mountains. You can enchant a pair of daedric gauntlets that have a single fireball charge that will engulf an entire town. The world is full of mysteries and NPCs. The guilds feel more fleshed out, because they actually are in conflict with one another. For instance, a thieves guild mission could lock you out of another guild entirely. Joining one of the three great houses will lock you out of the other two. There’s a much greater variety in equipment. Quests can have a lot more text, because every line doesn’t have to be voiced. There’s wild stuff like literal Gods roaming around some of the cities.
It just feels more fully realized for me.
I’m sure it’s hard to pick it up for the first time these days, because the combat is odd. It’s first person, but every attack is also still a dice roll under the hood. Just because you were close and your cursor was on an enemy doesn’t mean they’ll be hit. I think that’s the primary thing that will turn off newcomers. Sorry about the rambling post, I’m not great at describing why I enjoy something and I also fully acknowledge there’s an element of nostalgia with me and Morrowind.
I like the Orville more than any current running Star Trek show (and that’s not me saying I hate all modern Trek, I definitely like some of it), but I’d take 90s Trek over Orville, so it’s a bit of a toss up.
I would love another season of Orville.
Every Bethesda RPG since Morrowind is less interesting than the last. I think Starfield is incredibly bland in my experience so far. At its core, its got all the systems of any Bethesda game in the past two decades, but you can’t even get the experience of finding cool things on the path to a mission because most of the exploration is done through a menu with planets and when you land on the planet, the only interesting thing around is your objective. It does a lot of things No Man’s Sky does to pad out the typical Bethesda stuff, but it does all of that worse than No Man’s Sky. I’m having an… okay time with it, but it’s probably my least favorite game they’ve put out. Which has been true every time they’d put out a game since Morrowind.
Not that I’m surprised, but it looks beautiful.
it’s the year of the linux desktop chinese collapse
it even helps my sinus’ when I’m cleaning the house.
One of the best parts about having a bunch of cloth masks from early in the pandemic is they’re great for cleaning. I wear one when I clean my cats’ litterboxes every day.
I wear N95s outside the house, but cloth masks have still proven useful.
thank you
I want to share my experience as a disabled person, because I think it’s very easy to simply not notice our non-existance:
I don’t exist anymore. I’m a hermit. It’s been years since I’ve done anything in public. I go to the rheumatologist, I go to a lab to get blood tests, and once a year I get an x-ray to make sure I don’t have TB. I don’t do anything else. There’s about a two week period where being outside isn’t some unbearably high or low temperature that exacerbates my condition.
Please care about covid. Just, please. Do it for people like me if that helps you, but mostly do it for yourself. This virus can make you like me and it’s miserable (I was sick before Covid, but Covid is known to trigger autoimmune conditions which are the primary cause of my suffering).
I was reading some theory yesterday (Obama if you’re interested) and there was a really interesting point they made where they said “when they go low, we go high”. Really resonated with me. Something to think about.
I’m way far left of liberal btw.
its okay to believe the best in people, can’t fault you there
Their further response to me tells me they aren’t well intentioned.
yeah its a joke making fun of a large portion of reddit
you’re giving real “all lives matter” vibes with this response
tbh his vibes are off when he starts dating and agrees to impregnate a 2 year old
but if you remove that I like neelix
