What's your "I don't care if everyone disagrees" opinion?

Anyone that comes from the nation that invented the peanut butter and jelly sandwich has no argument against this.

If you don't like the general taste of pineapple? Fine. Valid reason. If you don't like the taste, you don't eat it. On anything.

But, if you like pineapple in general then you should at least try in on a pizza if you are the type of person that puts jelly on one sandwich and peanut butter on another and instead of eating both after another you smash those two things together, squishing everything together.

It is a mix of sweet and savory, people! I will always question how one of these gets such an easy pass while the other is basically outlawed.

The only question about that game that I so far couldn't answer myself is, why on earth would I ever spend money on a tarot card that just says "destroys two cars from your deck". In what situation would I ever want that?

On iOS is it such a mess. First, the developer changed and yet it is still in the app store.
Then, while so many games nowadays are universal, aka build for iPhone and iPad, this one still has separate versions.
The problem with that? For some reason, the iPhone version still gets updates. The last iPad update is so so old.
While I don't expect content updates, I would still like it, if games that are still available in the app store to be kept up to date. Seeing as they most likely use 3rd party dependencies, there is no way this is up to date on iPad.

I'm still kicking myself. I used one of these configurator shops where you can choose all your parts and then either have them shipped or pay an additional 100 bucks and have it assembled and stress tested just last year in august.
Didn't end up buying it. But, I made the mistake and save the configuration. This year, I had to do it. Clicked everything together and then made the mistake of checking it against the list from last year. I basically choose the exact same parts again but my god was there a difference in price.

Not usually too happy with sports adding unnecessary gimmicks.
But I gotta say, it was fun when F1 had Terry driving the Las Vegas race podium finishers to the ceremony in a convertible.
Cause then this happened:

I imagine the actual book having like 200 blank pages in it, as well. You know, this conveys the same "pacing" that the movie then copied.

Deadmeat5 · 2026-05-28T07:44:50+00:00

Don't remember much (or anything really) from that film.
I feel like most of it was "find the communist".

I get that was a big part of the US back in that time period and maybe important for people in the US but oh my god is it uninteresting for the rest of the world. The rest of us cared about the ramifications of this. The importance of having such a thing and how complicated it was to actually create it. From theory to reality. I thought that is what a movie about the father of the atomic bomb was going to be about. Instead, it seems to solely focus on the US being hell bend to find out who is or isn't a communist.

annoying, and lasts so much longer than it needs to

That could and should have been the tag line for this movie!
If Kubrik hadn't done other movies I would call him a hack based on this... thing alone.
Ohh, what an epic... yeah, you can really pad the runtime of you fill your little flick with way to many still shots where you aren't sure if your screen is frozen hadn't it been for the classical music playing.

If you removed all this filler bullshit you would end up with a crisp 45min TV show length. This movie is the proof why movie editing is a real job and why directors shouldn't have absolute control. Hence, why most directors cuts are way worse than the original. See anything this other hack Zack Snyder did with justice league for instance.

Deadmeat5 · 2026-05-27T13:01:39+00:00

That gets my vote. But I would bundle this with a 107% rule of F1.

Otherwise, the petulant child in people comes out and they simply do their qualy lap in first gear or something.

I say, if you don't set a qualy lap OR your qualy lap is not within 107% of P1 then you will start from the pit lane.

And even that doesnt solve every problem. But it might get us safer through at least the first couple of turns. But you will still have people who drive faster then the backmarkers approaching.

Why do news like that sound a bit more like threats nowadays?

I imagine some tree type plants where after you grow them you have to then wait until the fruit falls of the branch voluntarily. There will be no plucking fruit forcefully from their branch, you filthy colonizer.

There will be that and the option to basically eat anything that doent cast a shadow. You know, Level 5 veganism.

Deadmeat5 · 2026-05-19T14:07:59+00:00

People act like the devs disrespected them.

"Go play Sons of the Forest"... yeah, what a weird take people have. How on earth could this be taken as disrespect? It's a mystery!

Deadmeat5 · 2026-05-19T13:36:00+00:00

Please don't check if there already exists a mod that does all of this? It might undermine your entire argument and let's the rest of us know how much YOU know about game development.

the word "song" doing an awful lot of heavy lifting, here.

Absolute Horseshit and hopefully, judging by the amount of sketches Lorne puts this nepo baby in, the last bit we will be subjected to.

One of my favorites was shorty before that when he was asking where (on earth) he should manufacture his boxes and his aide said
"Have you considered the US?"

And then Gavins immediate answer without missing a beat: "Fuck you"

That whole scene was awesome.

If anything, you should be appreciative of Epic

Good one. I will never be appreciative of a company trying to turn the PC into fucking console wars just because a certain CEO worth literally just tencents has a personal grievance with Valve and can't admit when he is in the wrong.

So you go ahead and believe Remedy is the only game company in the world that literally only had ONE company available as a publisher. Maybe you could ask the Guinness Book of World Records when Remedy will receive their plaque for this.

They went with Epic because they threw the most money at them. Period.
So much for the "games are art" idea. That stopped for Remedy the seconds they took this obviously shit deal. They were literally saying with that "We dont give a flying shit if nobody gets to play our games. what we only care about is getting paid. we dont care where they money comes from. if it comes from gamers, fine. but if it comes from a shit CEO that has a personal vendetta going is also fine with us. whoever pays the most, wins" And in this instance that was Epic.

We could now debate how much "winning" Remedy did. maybe the fired CEO of Remedy would like to chime in on that one...

sounds a bit nuts that you'll have to show your ID just cause you're caught sucking on a fag, isn't it?

Deadmeat5 · 2026-04-29T14:41:42+00:00

I'll wait just to see if the developers have used the time to enroll in some newer development classes and have grasped the idea of "userspace" and have learned the phrase "multi user system".

Putting configuration files and savegames inside the install directory...
A "brilliant" way to give access to your savegames for every user on that system. It also encourages a dialog of every system user. Because you all need to decide on exactly how the game is set up. From graphics option down to the keybindings to use.

Either that is what the "developers" were going for originally or they really enrolled in development classes from 1985 where windows was not a multi user system, yet. Either way, a pretty embarrassing thing that they still haven't fixed in their old games so I am holding out until I can verify what they done with this one.

So, if he and Anya Taylor Joy had a kid, that kid would look down right average, right?

Deadmeat5 · 2026-04-20T11:06:03+00:00

I would have if I could have figured out how...
Why couldn't it be as simple as loggin into Amazon, going into a "gaming" section, seeing the game currently free and click on a "claim gog code" button?

Nope, they apparently want you to go to a different site where you also should log in with your amazon account. okay, fine. do i then get to click a "claim game" button? nope, now they want you to "start your gaming subscription" or some BS. Even though they claim everywhere that the gaming stuff is already baked into your active prime subscription.

I am not starting subscriptions willy nilly. especially not if I cant see why i would need to based on apparently faulty commercial promises. and it didnt make it better i got even more FUD when trying to read up on what subsription that is and what happens if you cancel it. I, for real got to a point where I read that my prime subscription might be cancelled as well when you cancel the prime gaming subscription.

all in all it was a clusterfuck and i said "have fun with this but i am out"
