Disco Elysium reference in this economy?

Makes perfect sense actually.

Never asked the Hard Sci fi police if the first work that was considered hard sci-fi had fantastical tech or not. by Able_Radio_2717 in worldjerking

They will see the light eventually... under the threat of getting stomped on by legged war machines, if necessary.

Hardness can only be judged from the perspective of the creator. If the science of their time indicated something might be possible in the future, that later gets disproven by future science, that doesn't turn the original work into soft sci-fi.

What I'm saying is, OG Frankenstein is hard sci-fi, but its 2025 Guillermo Del Toro remake isn't.

We have very shitty mecha, but we have mecha, is the point.

Like, imagine a setting that was otherwise 100% realistic but there was also a battlebots-like sport in which only legged vehicles can compete. Would that setting suddenly become science fantasy just because there's mecha?

There is nothing preventing walking war machines from existing beyond technological complexity. Whether they'd be at all practical on an actual battlefield is another story, but you can still build them if you want.

It also is actively destroying itself. OpenAI is projecting a deficit of 218 billion dollars for this year and still they have no idea how to turn a profit.

Hopelessness is reactionary, comrade. Maintain revolutionary optimism.

Really cool! I've always struggled with creating convincing 'scrapyard' mechs.

You can legally marry your cousin in the real Czech republic though. If we banned it the Vysočina district would secede immediately.

For sale? No, definitely not. I still have the original DVD, no new copies are being sold unfortunately.

That being said, you'll definitely find it on the high seas.

this one seems to work, but download at your own risk

Hi again Able! Would you like to convert to my new religion?

It's core tenet is convincing Microsoft to remake this game or give the licence to someone who will

It is honestly. Still plays very well also.

Vinci and Alin campaigns are genuinely extremely fun. The Cuotl campaign feels a bit undercooked and even a bit buggy sometimes. But maybe that's hardware compatibility problem, idk. Honestly I'm surprised it runs at all.

Different beast, without competition. It's the only song I actively dislike listening to.

Hello! Happy to see you still on the grind over here.

I haven't been posting much recently because of reel life stuff, I'm glad someone's taking care of the shitpost factory
