    My wife suffers from agoraphobia so it's either run from the plane as quick as she can, or xanax.

    is it me or every game has now a simple white logo with their titles, or just a bland white title ? is this a new fad or am I just noticing this ? (sorry for the low quality collage)

    The issue is what is bio carbon. For small molecules, It's very hard to define what is part of "organic" chemistry and what is not.

    The Matrix Resurrections (2021) It has zero depth, zero emotions, the fight scenes were poorly done, we don't care for any of the cast. Vilain sucked, the scene with the merovingian was cringeworthy. 1/10

    Damn, I missed that. Got some pretty lousy reddish pictures last year using my smartphone, but it was cool nonetheless — especially considering I spent $5k to go to northern Norway for some northern light sightseeing, and it was cloudy the entire time.

    Star Wars Battlefront II

    The first one had some good coop action, very few maps but the difficulty was enough to keep me and the wife busy for a couple of session. BF1 (not the original, the remake) had also great graphics. They really nailed them on both games.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    I've also done extended studies on the matter, mostly pratical work, but can't remember the conclusion of my research though.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    I heard a long time ago that beer under 5% would not dehydrate you, but higher than 5% the diuretic action of alcohol effect will make you pee more than you should.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Yeah but beer is also 95% water, yet it will dehydrate you. On a complete different topic, I just learned about the big amount of radioactivity produced by fusion reactors and got a bit depressed

    Yes but two elements of what you wrote is for me proof that it could work : we all remember the sleeper, and if you feel powerless against something, you might become stronger so next time you may do something. bascically, I'm advocating for a super dungeon master and I do think AI might be able...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I wish the next MMO would move away from persistent worlds and have a more dynamic world. Kill Queen Dain Coldbeaver IV ? you have now his son on the throne. A Saturday night drunk troll raid that ends up wiping out all the Coldain? That's it, no more coldains. That would require a very good...

    I was never a huge fan of Starcraft, despite liking the lore, and didn't even play SC2. But the right of Starcraft just got bought by a South korean company (Nexon) Nexon is known for its agressive monetisation of everything they touch, not really sure what they will do with it.

    Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered

    I only played skyrim, on PC, and the atmosphere of the game was awesome, the graphism were ok, the UI was complete ass, and combats were mostly stupid and uninteresting. Fun game, but I would not call it a masterpiece.

    Path of Exile 2

    All of it, despite its flaws the old system felt connected to the world. Now it feels like you're entering data in an ugly excel spreadsheet with a very clumsy UX. Even the gem stash tab is wonky with the new gems. Everything was rushed in.

    I was expecting so much more from a jesuit pope. Didnt do shit about abuses in Church, didnt do shit about woke cancer taking over catholicism, didnt have any strong stance against anything. He was transparent, ill and weak. I hope this time they chose a war pope that brings people back to...

    Watched The Lost City with Sandra Bullock and Channing Tantum. Chicks flick to the max. Light love comedy, i'd give 4/10. I'd even give it a 5 if not for the token loud black woman.

    Is there any mobile games out there that aren't just money grabs?

    Also, if you have a Netflix subscription, they have some games that are adds free / without in game purchase. Townsmen gave me a few good hours of play while in airports. -

    There is also this idea that it's so hidden nobody knows what's inside; however, Napoleon looted and moved the complete archives when he kidnapped the pope. We have some report of what's inside, and it's mostly around money and state affair (go figure).

    2024 was rough for movie theaters, even this year's blockbuster (dune 2) would be ranked 5th on the 2023 list. Maybe Deadpool and Joker 2 will do better.
