I float through physical thoughts. I stare down the abyss of organic dreams.

Is this Road Rash with more bells and whistles?

Nice. I might actually check this out.

Played it on Sega Mega Drive back in the day. There was also a dope game called Skitchin' that was like Road Rash almost, but on roller blades...

Loved Carmageddon, Twisted Metal, Destruction Derby, FlatOut etc as well.

By "removed" you mean replaced with a different guitarist (John 5)?

If somebody can't play/tour, they get replaced - the show must go on and whatnot.

It is.

As said by others; see a physician, then a psychiatrist (in that order).

Auditory pseudo-hallucinations may be completely benign, especially if you've partaken in psychedelic substances recent or long since past, but they may also be an early warning sign of (like you said) potential pressure on the brain or abnormality in brain functioning.

And even that might be fine.

Either way, why gamble? Go see a doctor.

Four of the most prolific serial killers were based in south American countries like Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Venezuela, Brazil etc.

After those, it's India, China, Pakistan, former Soviet states, Russia and so on.

Hardly first world countries, and especially not when these killings took place.

Those killers' body counts eclipse all American killers' by a very significant margin.

Gary Ridgway (the Green River Killer) is the most prominent American serial killer by a mile, but he's not that "famous" even though he was arrested and convicted rather recently (about 20 years ago).

He is an uninteresting person who is rather stupid, doesn't do interviews and doesn't revel in his infamy like the more famous serial killers do or did. He's almost more akin to a rabid animal as far as public perception goes.

Furthermore, the decline of serial killers, even with more interest and attention than ever, I think is largely attributed to better social safety nets.

As it turns out, it seems that in at least some cases, socialistic policies work surprisingly well.

Good work posting this.

It is unbelievable what resolve the Ukrainian armed forces have.

Слава Україні!

Always gonna upvote New Vegas.

Man, things are a LOT worse in the US than the media makes you believe if the median income is $2600 a year.

These models can't write satisfyingly/convincingly enough yet.

But they will.

It seems like it'll actually be radically different, and there's no way it's coming out until like at least 2026.

Being gullible or stupid isn't an excuse.

Especially not in 2024.

Man, after the dust settled once the third reich crumbled, that was the excuse millions of people in Germany had.

Most people weren't on board with or even know about the genocidal engine underpinning it all, but they sure as hell could see the other bad shit that was going on, and by the time it was obvious for everyone, it was much too late, because they controlled everything and harsh punishments were known to be expected for everyone except the ultra-privileged.

Nah, man. Being an inflexible, obnoxious asshole is not an excuse to put millions of people in danger and setting horrendous precedents.

Blasphemous.

Fantastic metroidvania meets soulslike game. The art style, the lore, the atmosphere, and by God - the music!

The combat is not super great, but it's capable enough for a metroidvania.

I haven't played the second one, I hear it's kinda hit and miss.

As far as I know, a ton of stuff in the game is based on Spanish folklore etc as well.

I'm Swedish... A rich small country.

I didn't realize you were talking global median income, since it was not defined.

I don't know how great of a barometer for economics a luxury goods/service like a AAA video game is, though.

I did not know (or even notice) that was the case. Does it really matter?

I like Mick, and the rest of those guys are like... Legendary douchebags, so who's surprised?

If you like Biosphere and you haven't heard him, Loscil is wonderdully minimalistic dub ambient very focused on "cold" granular synths with tastefully meanderingly monotone progression.

Porn fakes are old news, yes - but what the post you replied to is talking about is "deep learning" (remember that, before the great deluge of "AI"?) fakes, which to some extent either uses generative networks to swap out or alter the face/body, or straight up generate simulacra graphics/video, as opposed to a human doing for the most part comparatively bad hack jobs with multiple sources as in the past.
