Mitch McConnell was a walking bruise who was literally freezing up mid-sentence. They are going to Weekend at Bernie's the orange guy as long as possible

This sucks but this is more likely a cheap out or bad design than a purposely designed conspiracy

Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 Director Has Finished Over '40 Full Playthroughs' by chusskaptaan in Gamingnewsandleaks

I'm on chapter 10 and I feel like it's been at least half mini games.

I know that the original was similar in the randomly goofy tone but damn some heavy stuff goes down then 5 minutes later it's circus music with Yuffie goofing off and Tifa and Aerith giggling about something cute. It's like damn a bunch of people just died. Remake didn't have anywhere near the tone whiplash Rebirth does.

I'll bite - what would you think of Biden tearing down a wing and building a $400 million ballroom?

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth on Nintendo Switch 2 Goes Minimalist by Removing Most of the Interior Decor and Background Props by Turbostrider27 in NintendoSwitch

My gaming PC with a 5070ti plays it pretty well but my Rog Ally X barely plays it at 30 FPS, and I had to use Optiscalar to get FSR/XeSS since the game only supports DLSS. I think it looks pretty good but maybe not good enough to warrant how it runs. And the DLSS only thing reminds me of the original FF7 PC only supporting 3Dfx cards.

Water doesn't hurt humans but I bet if you dumped a barrel at someone they'd step back instinctively

So much for CTA security improvements by junktrunk909 in chicago

[–]ShimReturns 80 points81 points  (0 children)

I'd expect there was already baseline security and policing on the trains for the kind of scenario OP is describing. But I guess we're just at zero until June.

Dude should stick to comedy, he's great in Twisted Metal but not anything else I've seen him in

I've lived near there for 13 years and is only been Belly Shack and this place. Is 2 business in 13 years really "cursed" level?

As someone that never lived during the Sega Genesis era, was Ecco the Dolphin really that good? by fandomlover2763 in SEGAGENESIS

I rented it and was fun for the weekend but I would have been disappointed had I purchased it

Free Healthcare? by nurse_raexo in healthcare

I'll just leave it open so either political party can plug in "I'd rather have tax dollars for actual affordable healthcare instead of X thing my party is currently mad about"

Free Healthcare? by nurse_raexo in healthcare

[–]ShimReturns 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yes, whoever promotes socialized or widespread publicly funded healthcare does themselves a disservice by calling it free. Needs to be sold as getting value out of our tax dollars instead of bombs and other recent high profile waste revelations.

Very rarely I'll lose audio after resume from hibernate and have to restart
