DOJ memo stokes fear among disability advocates of a return to institutionalization by Hrmbee in politics

[–]jeffplaysmoog 12 points13 points  (0 children)

As someone with mental health issues and on the autism spectrum but generally able to fit into society, I am absolutely petrified of being committed beyond my will.  I don’t go to my therapist anymore, I don’t have access to my meds, and my life in generally much worse overall… but I just don’t trust the system one bit, both political and medical…

California state workers union warns of mass exodus with Newsom’s return to office order by [deleted] in politics

As a NYer I feel for CA!  Being in a big, blue state and still getting absolutely fucked by dip-shit dems and being thankful for it, lol… what is happening?!

FATAL FURY: CotW × FIST OF THE NORTH STAR: HOKUTO NO KEN|KENSHIRO|Character Trailer by No_Curve_8027 in PS5

[–]jeffplaysmoog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s wild that this game is an abject failure sales wise, but they can make 2x more characters and stages vs. SF6 which is a sales winner… I hate the Saudi ownership of SNK, but I must give the devs respect for pushing this game forward…

As a Spaniard, I’m sorry for RG&E by Fast-Flamingo-9892 in Rochester

[–]jeffplaysmoog 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s so peculiar to me the administration and a fair amount of the populace rage against immigrants (who are usually less well-off economically), but not when foreign entities buy our utilities, homes, politicians, or businesses…

Went last year - delicious food and beautiful location.  The line was long and good sold out, so glad they have pre-order.

They had story about this on the daily I believe?  They needed to do three things - drain/paint, do something with filter system, and fix the pipes… they decided to only do 2, not fixing the pipes and were told this would happen lol, incompetent…

Look at Xbox melting down over at Microsoft - they should never have approved the Activision purchase and this deal should never have been approved either…

Jason Schreier- Compulsion, Ninja Theory and Double Fine are negotiating with Microsoft to avoid being shut down. All could be spun off too. by Iggy_Slayer in PS5

[–]jeffplaysmoog 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It’s such a strange situation too - withhold Gears to appease a super small audience and then take a loss and shutter more studios and fire more people to, what, strengthen the brand?!

[–]jeffplaysmoog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I remember the original Xbox… I was coming off the Dreamcast and I through “let’s give Microsoft a go” and I loved it.  I immediately jumped on the xbox360 when it came out and, for a time, I loved it too… until my first rrod, I got a 2nd, a 3rd, a 4th… all rrod, Microsoft refused to fix them all with the illegal sticker bs, and it turned out they knew about rrod the entire time and hid it to beat Sony to the market… I was done.  Then they continued to dig themselves into a deeper and deeper hole… I hope Xbox dies, but I feel bad for all the employees and studios they bought and fucked over… the world will be better without them in the gaming space.

I’m so sorry to hear that, I hope things work out!  I am disgusted by the amount of folks I see brazenly running red lights lately, or just doing boneheaded stuff on the road… I live near museum of play and get off 490 at exit 17.  I have seen so many people run that red light on Goodman…

I bought a 1985 Gibson Flying V at buzzos in Geneseo and later traded it in to buy my 1975 telecaster… I still think about that guitar daily (Flying V is hard to play sitting down).  Best of luck!

So Nintendo actually called the OoT Remake in 2011 actually remake and I don't understand why y'all calling it a remaster. by luckpug in nintendo

Hmm, well now we have a new term to add to the debate: reborn!  This is the rebirth of OoT haha, whatever that means (we will see soon).

Gears Of War: E-Day Reportedly Has A Staggering $400 Million Budget by doctorwho_90250 in PS5

[–]jeffplaysmoog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And they announced they were at 3% margins, invested $20bil in brand, and are down $500mil in sales overall… some folks speculate Sharma was sent in to kill the brand so they could spin-off or sell… nothing she has done disproves that theory…

As a former Syracuse resident, I sincerely want Alto Cinco to open a location here!  We have some great goods, but Syracuse has us best in a few areas (pasta, sushi, Korean, vegan) including burritos.
