I really just don’t want to ecosystem to die. I’ve been collecting achievement, doing gamepass etc for a long time. The only way I can see them still doing that moving forward is vastly changing how they approach their PC store. Make a big picture mode that basically simulates the current Xbox OS. They had Windows Media Center before and Metro UI. I’m surprised it’s not happened yet.

For larger communities it’s great. For small communities it sucks. People need to let the mainstream ones grow before branching to these smaller communities.

Outside of that the community is incredibly lefty, I am pretty liberal too but it’s pretty wild how much it leans. There’s also a huge fascination to have everything be FOSS , Linux, and using Firefox . Ex the audacity of the Sync developer charging for an app was hilarious.

I remember the days in college where I’d drink the night and then have kegs and eggs in the morning. Or drinking and then taking a bus to Philly that night and drinking for St Pattys day. It’s been a decade since and now way in hell could I do that again.

There’s some ways to counteract it. Make sure you drink a ton of water. I usually always have vodka sodas now so I’m more hydrated. Also carry liquid ivs around which helps.

Coke Zero hits the spot for me

Oh wow Gotham Knights is quite the surprise to see.

People are trying to tell you that you have a shit haircut, sorry :(

Might be my next game after I’m done with Starfield. I’ve been holding off on this for ridiculously long.

Arrival I think would be a great choice.

Yeah I definitely agree with this one (but there’s definitely arguments both ways so nice for interpretation). I really enjoyed how May was basically Peter Parker’s (wo)man in the chair in ITSV.

Actually I don’t think this was even a theory. This was the original intent but the studio thought it was too complex for the GA to understand.

Lol okay I’ve never heard of this one . Any links where it’s more in depth?

Oh not a fan of the JarJar one but the life force one is really intriguing. Would’ve been nice to show more hints of that in media such as Rebels, Kenobi, or the comics. Vader slowly forming doubt would also help with his decision to betray him in Jedi.

I just re-watched Signs yesterday after what could be over a decade ago. This time I went in with the perspective of the very popular fan-theory that the aliens were demons the entire time. It really enhanced the movie for me and helped me appreciate the Reverend’s story more. The main theme of the movie should be on his story of believing again after the passing of her wife. The illogical actions of what’s considered very advanced aliens detracted from that and the overall movie suffered from this criticism. The theory of them being demons helped to alleviate and even enhance the movie for me and I enjoyed it far more upon re-watch.

Just to be clear , I’m fairly sure Shyamalan’s intention wasn’t for them to be demons as there are a lot of inconsistencies for that to be true. But if you can look past those issues, the movie becomes far more enjoyable with its theme of faith.

Fan theory for reference

Higher salary, free lunch, commute costs covered. And should be hybrid instead of all five days in the office (Tues-Thurs).

I honestly can’t tell anymore if this is real life or Forza

I actually recently got an ROG Ally cause I have prepaid GamePass and felt I was just watching TV instead of playing. I felt so guilty wasting my subscription and watching good games come and go. But once I got the Ally, I’ve been playing more than I ever been since I was a kid. Even when the wife is watching her shows I can just chill with her playing games.

I think chiropractors also fall under this

it really depends, LOTR movies made significant changes but I still love it even if it’s not 100% like the books.

Then there’s World War Z where all they did was use the title and some loosely based details. Still enjoyable but not a huge fan.

Then there’s I Am Legend which I didn’t like at all as it didn’t match with the actual point of the story (the alternate ending wasn’t bad though but still left the bad taste in my mouth from the original ending).

Thinking of doing exactly that. Watch the show and then enjoy the books .

Wonder how many more developers and publishers need to come out and say it’s a positive for people to be convinced. I feel like the sentiment on the internet is that it’s detrimental to them. I personally have played so many indies I wouldn’t have otherwise due to Gamepass.

Take Two probably loves it as it gives more and more people the ability to buy shark cards lol

Would you recommend reading the book first before going into the show?
