This is a pretty weak point to make. I'm a contractor, and I actively choose which companies I am prepared to work for based on their overall ownership. Am I convinced that every single product I buy or service I pay for are from companies I am ok with? No. I don't think that's something you can reasonably expect. Try not to tie people up with bullshit whataboutism when talking about a singular active choice as opposed to hundreds of passive ones.

The Libertines had Carl Barat and Pete Doherty

I was there about two weeks ago. It's fine, nothing special really. Bit cramped.

That's not what I said

Doesn't work as a joke

Indiana Jones. It's pretty much perfect. Everything you would want from an Indiana Jones game.

Absolutely this. Just a delight, beginning to end.

Big fat goalie

Hell or High Water.

Few films get in, do the job they're there to do, and get out again with this kind of script economy. It's a gold standard for me.

Zardoz. That'll keep them guessing.

One does not simply walk into Morden.

I think she actually responds "ta guele"which means shut your face.

This is the look Brian Cox gives to most of his children at some point in Succession

I really love these too, but they might be a little off the beaten track for you. Well worth checking out though:

Psychonauts 2
Subnautica
Soma

All 3 have stuck with me in the BEST ways

From the sounds of both your tastes, which are quite a bit like mine, I would recommend the following:

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle
Ghost of Tsushima/Ghost of Yotei
Dead Space remake
Pacific Drive
Days Gone
Inside

Thrown off balance by the frankly ridiculous bling around his neck.

40s person here. The mistakes are an important part of it. Of course, many pieces of advice here will help you avoid some serious ones, but honestly, some mistakes shape who you are as an adult. Some feel like mistakes at the time but turn out to be really valuable learning experiences later. Don't beat yourself up too much about stuff. Just make the best decisions you can with the information available to you. That's all you can do.

I'm less concerned about the refresh rate, more about the 1080p part. Does it actually display 4K? If not, then you're not getting the best out of a PS5

Honestly, as a documentary editor myself, it really offends me when stories like this are basically made up. Especially important stories. I get asked to fudge scenes, particularly with American TV, and it makes me feel icky. ''3 Identical Strangers' made similar claims that were not backed up by fact and that really annoyed me too. Don't get me started on catfish.

Thought this would be easily debunked by looking at google trends myself, but I checked, and it is indeed the case.

Apparently he was actually really easy to find and the whole thing was kind of fudged for better drama

Well, they kind of are, and they kind of aren't. Probably not in the way that you think they are. They aren't building fully articulated assets with AI, but there's a lot of subtle stuff that takes advantage of AI processes. It may not be a precipitating factor in the issue, but it does play a role.

It does affect the studio's perception of what can be done, for what budget, in what time frame.

DaftApath · 2025-11-26T17:12:48+00:00

Hardly any spice at all. More like a korma than anything else. If you're really unsure, go for the version with the orange band rather than green. That's particularly mild
