Miyazaki's true magnum opus is the war story with the aerial dogfights and monsters

It's the Yakuza/Like A Dragon game that's mostly all that dumb side stuff the series is best known for (as opposed to the actual gangster movie-style plots) but it still hits you with the proper emotional parts by the end. Good stuff, Ryu Ga Gotoku studio remains a winner

Finished Like A Dragon: Pirate Yakuza In Japan. Damn, Madlantis truly is crazy, as is the rest of the game

I considered buying that book, what with being on the Bitmap Books mailing list and all that, but damn I'm glad I didn't drop the money on it

This is rich coming from the propaganda rag that's home to all the absolute freaks that cry about being cancelled when someone calls them out for sharing their absolutely repellent thoughts

NYT: A Campaign to 'Bring Back Bullying'

On social media, some are arguing that bullying deserves a second look. Trolling or not, the push seems to reflect a general turn away from sensitivity.

It'd be still far more respectable than his smashing his hands on the keyboard to shit out his repellant ideas

The people doing such useful labour are worthy of applause, as opposed to the commentariat imbeciles who are worthy only of society's constant scorn and disgust

If only Fatty was cancelled to the point that forced him to do something actually useful for society like plucking turds from sewage with his bare hands

That dipshit's Concord video popped up in my Youtube recommendations and that username/avatar combo alone was enough to make me go for a hard no.

I enjoyed my couple of hours with the demo and would like to continue it, but pay 70 Eurodollars for the privilege? Ehhhhh I'll just wait for a sale.

World's End Lifestyle Giant @magnumt.bsky.social · 1d

Trying out the demo for the new Digimon RPG and I like how its protagonist uses a flip phone that turns into a gun that shoots weird critters into the world

But hey those electronics hold the promise of putting everyone out of work for a couple of years so who's to say if they're good or bad

World's End Lifestyle Giant @magnumt.bsky.social · 2d

At least building a cathedral leaves you with a nice building with beautiful stained glass and excellent acoustics that will stand the test of time; a datacentre is just a big room filled with electronics that start decaying as soon as they're turned on

Small Robots @smolrobots.bsky.social · 2d

You know, it reminds me of medieval cathedrals at this point. Huge edifices that took literal generations to complete, a vast investment of resources: time, materials, money, even lives. All for the glory of god, because people thought (as they always do) they were living in the End Times.

Ryan Marino, MD @ryanmarino.bsky.social · 2d

OpenAI’s planned data centers will use more power than New York City & San Diego use at their peak consumption, combined. More power than the entire nations of Switzerland & Portugal combined. And San Altman’s buddies in this administration have been cutting all of our energy infrastructure upgrades
