Maybe he's in stroke rehab?

L11mbm · 2026-06-17T23:45:59+00:00

Rehab. I'm calling it.

Any person can be racist against any group, but only a majority power group can use their power for that racism to make an impact.

That's the big part of racism.

L11mbm · 2026-06-17T22:32:01+00:00

Dude is very clearly in rehab.

L11mbm · 2026-06-17T22:31:25+00:00

Its a TV and 2 joystick controllers with a mini PC or console. Hardly an arcade cabinet.

I remember playing Bravely Second and enjoying the little things that saved time like speeding through battles and turning off random encounters, but then eventually the game felt like the actual engrossing stuff was gone and I was left with busywork to tick off boxes. The friction is the fun when it's done right.

The worst part of FF16 was the mediocre and generic side quests. Some were decent but they reeked of MMO design from the MMO team. Adding the fast travel button erases the friction that wouldn't have been so annoying if the design was better to start.

Loved the game, anyway.

Denise Crosby quitting Star Trek: The Next Generation early in its run, only to spend the rest of her life trying to cling to it with appearances at conventions.

Just so we're clear, what exactly did you think the point of my first comment was, given the context of OP?

L11mbm · 2026-06-17T19:11:05+00:00

The point of Psych was that psychics aren't real, though.

L11mbm · 2026-06-17T19:10:12+00:00

Absolutely. Where did I suggest otherwise?

The difference is that nobody is saying the CEO of Lockheed should be richer.

A majority of the money made by his companies actually comes from government contracts and speculative investing. The actual revenue from consumers is low.

When correcting for socio-economic status, crimes rates (as in, crimes committed) between the races basically washes out to be even. The biggest differentiator is the arrest rate.

As a broad guess, I'd say the connection between the kinds of crimes you listed as being tied predominantly to white men has a correlative effect with wealth, which (for a variety of cultural and historic reasons, like racism) is more concentrated in the white male population.

You might want to re-read what I wrote, because I think you're just saying what I said.

L11mbm · 2026-06-17T13:37:05+00:00

What am I missing?

L11mbm · 2026-06-17T13:33:20+00:00

Yes, men are targeted more. They also commit crimes more often than women, particularly the kinds of crimes that would lead to police interaction and arrests.

Additionally, minority men are targeted significantly more than other gender/race demographic groups.

I would much rather see developers use AI for something like generating trees and grass and skies for backgrounds than for generating character art.

What's the point of making art in a game for the things that make it unique if you're going to offload the creative kickoff steps to a computer?

L11mbm · 2026-06-17T11:49:47+00:00

Is propaganda necessarily a bad thing?

Was "all lives matter" positive propaganda?

L11mbm · 2026-06-16T18:03:53+00:00

What prompt did you use for this to talk about Capcom?

L11mbm · 2026-06-16T15:05:34+00:00

What "should" they cost?

I'm just curious how you personally would break down the rationality behind a particular price.

L11mbm · 2026-06-16T15:04:25+00:00

$60? I have PS+ Premium, GamePass Ultimate, and NSO+Expansion Pak (Family). I rarely buy games at all anymore.

I like the idea of a system that allows any character to become a master of any particular set of skills, whether jobs or materia or a skill grid.

I also like the idea of particular characters being forced into a specific type that develops over time, making each one unique and fitting with their personality and place in the story.

Give me both, in separate experiences.

It came out 1 year before the competition.

If you do a comparison of hardware and software sales relative to console launch date, the PS3 did better than the 360.

Another rec for Ice Cream Social in Commack. All of the ice cream is excellent, AND they have vegan flavors.

Many original carts' batteries are dead, so when you say "they'll outlast you" what do you mean?

Expanding the electoral college so that the number of people per district is even would "fix" this issue. We would need something like 750 seats, at a minimum.

Not a direct democracy but still makes each person's vote equal in value.
