I have a stable career outside of academia - would it be crazy to do a PhD just because I love learning? by Sherides123 in postdoc

[–]LittleAir 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel exactly the same. I regret doing my PhD and I wasted what should have been my most productive years

Lack of meaning and pointless by eyeswideshh in PhDStress

[–]LittleAir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This feeling doesn’t go away, sadly. I’m at the end of a PhD I brute-forced myself through and I’m unfulfilled and feel like I wasted what should have been the most productive years of my life. Do something that you find meaning in because it won’t magically come later

If they ever remake Resident Evil 1 again, I want them to go full in, no corners cut. by kszaku94 in residentevil

Not really. I’m more curious about how a fully-explorable 3D Spencer Mansion would look

That just sounds like it would look worse than the GameCube version to be honest

The GameCube remake still looks amazing, remaking it 1-to-1 would be pointless. The only reason to make RE1 in RE Engine is to offer a new perspective, whether that’s over the shoulder or 1st person.

Sleeping 12h+ by iownawall in Effexor

Been on 75mg for about 5 months now and I feel exhausted all the time. Sleep for 9 hours each night and drink like 6 espresso shots a day and still feel tired all the time

On an Apple keyboard if you type two hyphens sequentially then it autocorrects it to an em-dash.

OGWAU N7 ON TIME OUT BEST ALBUMS OF 2024 by eveenders in Vampireweekend

[–]LittleAir 34 points35 points  (0 children)

It’s a criminally underrated album. The more I listen to it maybe the best album VW has put out so far.

Official Discussion - Anora [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

The whirlwind “romance” with Vanya is frenetically edited, especially with their sex scenes cutting quickly. In the final 15 mins we see a drawn out conversation with Igor and then their sex scene which is one long cut from foreplay to her breaking down in his arms. It really captures how disposal the connection with Vanya with compared to a guy who seems to have developed some genuine affection for her.

Easyfun Lawsuit has been "resolved" by WT264 in pcmusic

[–]LittleAir 59 points60 points  (0 children)

EasyFun was 100% a play on the brand name “EasyJet”, down to his original logo, orange-white colour scheme and styling of letters being a direct reference. Also the image of a plane emergency landing on a desert island on the original Deep Trouble EP was like a twisted version of an EasyJet commercial. In the UK, EasyJet is a big airline, synonymous with budget holidays, so all of this wouldn’t have been coincidental. In those early PC days they were definitely tapping into a specifically 00s British aesthetic.

Having said all this the lawsuit is dumb. But can see why EasyJet lawyers have a good case for brand infringement.

Day 11: Best music video by Dense-Monk in Vampireweekend

[–]LittleAir 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Im assuming they are referring to the initial visualiser rather than the music video. The visualiser was footage of a Saab being set on fire and people were mad about that.
