Or at the very least the Four Seasons Total Landscaping incident. It's like a Curb Your Enthusiasm cold opening sketch or something.

The neutral redrawing of districts in my home state of Michigan has made a transformational difference for both local and national politics. I really hope Wisconsin can do the same.

If you do watch the anime version, check out the One Pace project, a fan-edit that removes all of the filler and stalling in the animation - it is the definitive way to watch!

I am a conductor and pianist with a decent level of absolute pitch who reads sheet music to myself like this all the time, and this description captures the synesthetic experience really well!

The weirdest part in my experience is that it's easy to listen to an audiobook at the same time because the sections of the brain that process each of those things are totally separate, just how you can listen to music and study at the same time.

Note takers, I guess...

Even though my vaxxes are up to date, I caught the new variant recently. It was pretty nasty - a lot like strep throat.

Not this week they ain't

I recently attended a polyamorous wedding where one pair of individuals in the polycule were formalizing their individual bond/commitment to each other (but both still remaining in the larger structure of the 5-6 person polyromantic/polyamorous constellation.) It was cute! All the other members of the group walked the bride and groom down the aisle and gave cute best-man-style speeches instead of a religious ceremony.

I enjoyed the event and they all seemed really happy.

They have a website at onepace.net. Their actual site is not working currently, but at least it redirects to their Discord server where you can get the streaming and magnet links you are searching for!

Well, then it can run DOOM. I'm sold.

he literally tried it once already, we don't really need to speculate if he'd go for it

Yep. One Pace basically just uses the manga for the storyboards without the extra bloat (though some exclusive anime segments got kept if they added to the experience), and the whole thing ends up being 40% shorter overall - and more importantly, it's more dynamic and exciting to watch.

That's all, folks!

Except that time they unironically drop the f-slur... 🙊 but their hearts are clearly in the right place.

I feel like ATC is one of those pattern-recognition constraint-satisfaction problem jobs where a (non-generative!) algorithm can probably do a pretty good job.

With the deprecation of UBlock Origin, it's time.

Even effects-forward pieces like Jurassic Park still hold up because everyone on the island is a memorable character and the plot is exciting! Though it's true that the constraints on effects might have caused that - the dinosaurs in that movie only had about 15 minutes of total screen-time, so they had to actually, y'know, write.

Given the history of the series, I find this to be pretty endearing. I have fond memories of playing the multi-disc Baldurs Gate 1 on PC as a child. It's kinda fun to see that today's gamers will have a similar experience with the same series nearly 30 years later.

Less-corporate, creator-owned networks like Nebula and Dropout might be a potential route to a more sustainable and less centralized online video ecosystem.

• The Bioshock series supports a spellcasting-based play style with a decent skill tree.
• CONTROL also involves a lot of eldritch force powers in its combat sequences
• I know you didn't really want sidescrollers or top-downs but Noita and Magicka are pretty great at delivering on the creativity of mage combat and scratch this itch for me.

This YouTube creator has published several quality videos what's going on in Wizard Games lately, which is a quick way to catch up on the genre: https://youtu.be/quPKQIVEX5A

It's still true that a deflationary economy would be a mess though. If we had deflation, the rich wouldn't even bother investing and would literally just sit on a pile of gold like Smaug. I know trickle-down doesn't work but an economy where nothing circulates would be hellish.

Someone with finger joint issues should probably stay away from cajon - it's a knuckle-rapping simulator.

Miserable game design for something that is trying to get players to come back every few months for content releases. "You can't play the new hero until you grind for it until you burn out or pay" is just not a compelling pitch to get people to resume playing your game.

It's only going to get worse over time as the proportion of premium characters grows... 😐

I like to listen to the Muckrake podcast for analysis of recent events.

And now that there is enough to infinite-scroll, that's enough to satisfy any one user. Of course, it's true that having more content will allow for a larger number of high quality posts and the ability to serve more niche communities, but at least there is a viable alternative for that Reddit itch now. It's so much easier to uninstall Reddit apps than it was a month ago.

I've been using directly negative adjectives like "bad" or "unsatisfying."

They were paid in cocoa beans... 😖

The Gameboy Advance startup sound never fails to activate my neurons either.

The f in of is pronounced with a v sound so it's a little sneaky I guess

Isn't this just World of Warcraft? It's practically a co-op ARPG at this point.

I have a VPN, so this could definitely work.

I bet it was Scenery by Ryo Fukui - this album is a classic YouTube recommendations banger.

Absolutely a good idea to focus on Lemmy's gains. A viable competitor is up and running now, so Reddit will have to compete or perish.

It's hard to buy ad-free cable TV...

Yep! It's free real estate.

It's just about my favorite activity, yeah! Though it's best when I can play it out on the piano, it's a lot like playing a rhythm game like OSU.

Isn't this just Taco Bell?
