In my opinion it’s time to retire the Nobel prizes for fields where most of the important discoveries have already been made, like physics, and add prizes for newer fields where substantial innovations occur every year, like speedrunning

The announce of Star Trek made me look back at Edge of Eternities and wonder if that’s the whole reason we got that set in the first place.

Master! This is rough. Like, really rough. I can't believe it myself. The king is trapped in the puzzle dungeon. What order to pull the pins in? I'll let you play for free. In the name of Harman...

kinda crazy how every single “just give people enough money to afford some basic stuff” experiments yield the exact same positive results that everyone benefits from every time, huh

Anyway, back to toiling

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

I love how often open world events are popping off in GW2. Probably a very XIV-brained opinion but it makes the world feel so alive in comparison. Then you try to shoot a world boss at 12 fps as the game struggles to load everyone and you're like. Hell yeah. This is what video games are all about.

Probably the dumbest Borderlands 4 UI complaint, but to me the most baffling — In previous Borderlands games, when your friend joins your lobby, you can see their character lounging around in your start menu, clear as day. In 4, they get Mike Wazowski'd by the Friends panel.

Borderlands 3 main menu screen. Amara standing front and center. FL4K is sitting in the background, fully visible.

Borderlands 4 main menu screen. Vex standing front and center. Harlowe is off to the side and her face is covered by the Friends UI element.
