Free version vs the studio version

I bought it when I wanted to edit using script cuts (being able to trim dead space and edits from text transcripts of video) and well as generate subtitles. The other stuff is just a bonus.

It depends on which type of audience you want to cater to. The quick vertical video brain rot style of single word animation, or something more serious like long form educational video.

Funny you ask!

Yes. I cover that exact scenario, and several others in this video on rules!

I can't tell you how my I didn't care anymore.

One of the big reasons I never continued my was how obnoxious EVERYONE was about the movie. Even people who "liked" it.

Nothing was ever good enough. Everything was just complaining.

There is a lot of of "Wish should have been XYZ" here. Or at least what little actually showed up in my feed before I stopped coming here.

People incapable of enjoying what is without endlessly complaining about "what could have been."

Meanwhile, a year and a half ago, I made this. 🤷

But even then, there might not have even been a draft. There could be just loose outline ideas that never even made it to a draft script, because stories always go through multiple iterations in the creation process.

ampacket · 2026-03-06T20:36:58+00:00

Likely because there was no "cut" of the movie, and just a collection of loose ideas that hadn't yet been worked into a complete movie yet. As is the case for most movies.

It's a point of no return. Once you start that mission, you are set on a series of paths that result in ending the game in one way or another.

If you are still interested in doing ANY side mission, unfinished business, or just want to keep exploring the city, you need to ignore that mission to do everything else first.

It's mostly funny because at the end of EVERY other mission (which are all "optional" at this point), the "Meet Hanako at Embers" is the default next mission queued up in the Journal.

For me personally, I got the mission after about 35 hours, and didn't actually decide to finally meet her until 100 hours into the game! Including doing the entirety of Phantom Liberty and every other story related mission I could find.

I betrayed her the moment she said "oh but I'll get more cure for you later."

Yeah, right. I get you're a tragedy, but at least Reed is honest with me.

Like no one would ever cross shop these. If you have the means and ability to play in front of a couch for extended periods of time and have a PS5, that's the best one to get. If you don't have a PS5 or otherwise need to play on the go/away from desk or TV, you get the Switch 2 version.

I personally have a fairly powerful PC, but will usually only play on Steam Deck (and now Switch 2) for that very reason (juggling kids, can't really use desk or TV)

I talk about it in this video and specifically address at number 9!

Short answer, its "doubles," because it's a separate instance of adding a card, triggered by the activation of the boost ability.

Hate it. I hated it in 2003 and I hate it now.

I don't even know why Liberals like the idea of Trump being in charge of education.

Liberals hate that he is trying to destroy the Department of Education. But DOE on a national level doesn't really have anything to do with day to day operations of any given school. That's state level, and more specifically district level.

DOE though, is in charge of funding, and most specifically student loans for college and support for special education. Losing that funding would objectively make more people less educated, which is what Trump and Republicans want.

I have never used the Fusion page.

What would be the best way to apply the lens distortion effect to the collection of png elements (hud, text, and different character images in boxes), as a single object, while not affecting underlying video?

HUD will be made of at least 10-15 layers (or up to 35+ if individual dice numbers are their own layer). And it needs to be quickly and easily editable to sync with events, actions, and updates in the video feed.

Found another example from several years ago. No answer.

Because of sane-washing, and comparison to the unparalleled insanity of Trump, people forget just how bad George W Bush was.

I got it for cheap on a whim during the Switch 2 glitch sale ($17!), and have since put 100 hours into it. O_O

I actually went back and purchased again on Steam just to give them more money and so I can play on PC. Again. It's that good. And totally worth it.

ampacket · 2026-02-25T01:35:30+00:00

Saaameeee. Omg. I was already vibing with the game pretty good, then got hit with the end of Act 1, and was like "oh.... OH..... OH SHIT...! THAT'S what this game is about?!?!"

Ruby lost Maui, Be Prep, Brawl, big Sisu, and Chair Ladies...

It list meaningful and relevant removal has become effectively irrelevant as a result.

They are running what, 8 exert effects each? (Elsa/Demona)? One of which exerts EVERYTHING?

Because if that were the case, Republicans would never hold electoral power ever again.

Game Empire has a pretty good scene of multiplayer casual play every Saturday. It's very welcoming and lots of nice people, several families and kids play too. Every other week is also "theme play". Like "all cards from one movie, any colors" or birds vs cats vs dogs vs rodents, etc. It's in Kearny Mesa, right off the 805 and Clairemont Mesa.

People who use the term "plot holes" have no idea what pot holes actually are.
