The game was in a pretty rough state when they relaunched it, but they have been slowly improving it a bit at a time (it often feels like 2 steps forward, 1 step back). I feel like the game is in a pretty good spot though. I enjoy it and am looking forward to season 4.

A lot of times when translating articles, and going for click bait headlines, things get mangled. I was searching for where Sakurai may have said he was not making another smash game, and I can’t find anything like that. On the contrary, I am seeing articles saying things like he can’t see another smash game happening without his involvement: https://www.si.com/esports/fgc/new-super-smash-bros-game-sakurai

But regardless, it’s easy to get burned out on something and feel like you never want to touch it again. Then a few years later your feelings on the matter change. It’s happened to me. Doesn’t mean someone “is full of shit”.

I’m more surprised that this game is still running. I haven’t heard of anyone playing it in years.

Dang, they had to rent the whole VCR in Calvin’s household?

Honest question here. I’m not familiar with the game, but you seem to be upset that it offers cosmetic items for sale. One of your proposed solutions is to bundle all of the cosmetic items together and sell it as a DLC. What is the actual difference in those two options? Why does one of them seem acceptable to you while the other does not? They sound like the exact same thing to me.

What does natron offer that you would use it over fusion (in davinci resolve)?

Oh my gosh, when I was a child I remember going into a shop at the beach which sold all kinds of holographic images. And I remember a couple of them had pictures of things like a telescope or binoculars, and you could actually look into them! I’ve been searching for a while for any kind of information about these things, and I was almost ready to believe that I had just imagined it. But there is the same thing just 1 minute into this video!

It sounds like it works really well. The physical size does sound quite large, but I’m not sure how that compares against other types of batteries.

Not the op, but we do use them in my house too. We use every one that we get. We can line them with paper (we collect our junk mail paper for this purpose) to prevent leaks if there happen to be any tiny holes.

Use a bag daily during dinner prep to collect all the food trash and packaging and stuff that needs to be moved to the main trash can. Also use them as small trash bags in the bathroom and bedrooms.

I don’t really like random battles for the most part, but they are not normally the thing that makes or breaks a game for me, either.

Some of the first jrpgs that I remember handling battles better then the typical final fantasy was Chrono Trigger and Pokemon. In Chrono Trigger, you can typically see the enemies before you have to fight them, though they would often surprise you with enemies that you couldn’t see jumping out. I think that worked much better than just the normal system where if you walk around long enough you get a battle. Then Pokemon has 2 different things that it did. First, for trainer battles, you can see the trainers on screen so you can make sure you are prepared before you go into a fight. Then for the normal battles around the world, it does use random encounters, but they take place ONLY within certain spots, like in tall grass or in a cave. So you still have a lot of freedom to roam around in areas without triggering battles, and when you do go through those spots, you know that a battle could pop up, so you can be ready for it. There are also items you can use to avoid encounters.

For dealing with the annoyance of low level enemies, I think Earthbound had a pretty good system. In Earthbound, it shows you enemies on screen rather than doing random encounters, and once you get to a significantly higher level than the enemies, they will run away from you instead of coming at you, so you are free to just ignore them.

Um… you realize that nuclear doesn’t give of any pollutants?

It should probably last you several years with no issues. Look at the warranty on the model you are interested in, and assume that it should last you at least that long.

If it does fail, well at least it’s just your render cache.

Wtf… This is all covered in the article that YOU posted.

Wow that’s actually pretty cool. I wonder how many paper authors will actually be looking at it though.

They didn’t just “happen to be around”. They created the entire ecosystem around machine learning while AMD just twiddled their thumbs. There is a reason why no one is buying AMD cards to run AI workloads.

You mean other than from the Native Americans?

Actually Google tries their hardest NOT to point you to content. They scrape the data from sites and display it directly in the search results so that you don’t need to visit any site except Google. Their new AI answers that they are pushing on users are just another step in that direction.

Wtf does a kill switch even mean? PCs have kill switches on them already, in the form of a power switch.

I was first introduced to the original Worms through a demo that came with a PC magazine. I spent way too many hours playing that simple demo, but it really sold me on the concept of worms.

When Worms 2 came out, I bought it and I was blown away at it being such a massive improvement over the original. I think it was probably the first game that I spent a significant amount of time playing online. I even made custom sound packs based around some of my favorite shows, and I would customize my team names around them.

Then Worms Armageddon came out. I was so hyped for the next generation of Worms, so I bought it immediately. And then… Well I have to say I felt disappointed. While it was certainly an improvement over Worms 2, with a few new weapons and some single player content, it really felt like more of an expansion than a whole new game. But alright, it is what it is, and I continued playing because it was still a fun game.

And then Worms World Party came out. I thought that surely this must be the next big evolution in the Worms franchise. So once again I bought it. And god damnit, it felt like they had once again sold me the same damn game with a fresh coat of paint. And that’s how I came to stop loving the Worms franchise.

Chrome decided not to support it because they want to push AVIF instead. Firefox followed suit. Then Apple actually decided to support JXL. It has a decent amount of support in desktop software. So it’s basically fine for personal use, but don’t expect to use it on the web unless Google changes their tune.
