Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders

W40K - Gladius - Relics of War in a giveaway on GOG. To bad, it has billion of DLCs, which cost arm and leg https://www.gog.com/en/game/warhammer_40000_gladius_relics_of_war

Nintendo's better off than either Sony or Microsoft's gaming division 'cause unlike the two 'big boys', Nintendo stays in their lane and doesn't spend ungodly amounts of money on photorealistic graphs.

Dune: Part Two (2024) I was told to give it a chance so I did. As many of you know, @Bartimaeus and I have hated on Villeneuve a lot, frankly this film confirms it. Dune: Part Two has a stellar cast and it absolutely disrespects them. Florence Pugh is one of the greatest actresses of her generation and she is absolutely squandered here, relegated to wearing weird aesthetic outfits and delivering one of the most wooden lines I have ever heard. And it is constantly like this, all of that talent is wasted on horse**** lines or set pieces against barren fake scifi sets. Perhaps the closest the film gets to real acting is through Dave Bautista, whose background in wrestling primes him to be able to act without using the dialogue Villeneuve so despises, in the scenes where he is afraid or humiliated. Everything else is just ****ing bland as hell, if it wasn't for the lack of melted faces or unnatural numbers of fingers I could believe this film was completely AI generated. The cinematography feels like it just shot concept art. None of this **** feels like anyone actually lives here, none of it. Villeneuve's precision and set building captured nothing, even the closest "real world" shots of the desert feel much more like they dumped 9000 tons of sand into a studio lot, it doesn't feel like a desert with actual creatures that live in it. And to get a bit....woke, as some would say, Villeneuve ripped out the Arabic influences and attempted to sew it back together without filling in the gaping holes. This film actively attempts to de-Arabize the Fremen into generic sci-fi future humanity, grinding off the serial numbers so to speak. Perhaps it's political, given that a film about obivously arab stand-in desert people fighting comically cruel invaders occupying their home would not be a politically popular among the ruling class for entirety the 21st century, but substantially less so in 2024. Whatever the case may be, it is a cowardly move that makes me feel like I'm being insulted. This movie is a soulless piece of **** and I feel like I need to cleanse by watching a good film. So I'm going to buy tickets for I Saw The TV Glow (2024) and see it tonight or tomorrow, hell I'll probably watch the director's previous feature We're All Going To The World's Fair (2021) to boot, because that movie is ****ing great.

https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/ukrainian-forces-capture-russia-s-advanced-t-90m-tank-game-changer/ar-BB1n1XyR Its definitely not a game changer , I get annoyed by the sensationalized headlines from both sides, but its interesting and useful for Ukraine and the West for analysis?

Yeah, I doubt it highly as well. But if I post every rumor, then I can go "I said so" when one of them comes true.

It might or not. We'll see how they will handle them. The thing is, they will be use some longer range munition with them, which is still incompatible with SU-25s, which they are currently using. The biggest thing might really be maintaining No Fly Zone over most of the Ukraine, as the current most dangerous thing Russia has, according to many soldiers directly from battlefield, are their FAB glide bombs. PVO = Air defense in Czech or Slovak language, is really the biggest enemy for these F16s, but you have probably seen, that in the last two weeks, UA used dozens of newly acquired ATACMS to obliterate a big chunk of them all around Crimea and Donbas.

I would suggest Kill la Kill.

It was only few days ago, when he was dismissing by Macron proposed olympic ceasefire, as ridiculous. So as I see it, if he asks for ceasefire now, it’s because he need to replenish some of the completely exhausted battalions, before UA gets the first F16s, which are allowed to hit targets in Russia, and he feels, he might lose conquered areas

They might have been looking for a replacement of St. Petersburgh Larian, which they shut down when the Russian kerfuffle started. Warsaw sounds like a decent place for a studio on a budget with a lot of talent to draw from, and it is close enough within the time zone to support their 24h development cycle. ex-CD Project folks are an obvious titles, but there are a lot of polish devs and would-be-devs out there. It also seems like CDPR folks are more than happy to leave on their own, considering the ammount of "by ex-CDPR devs" attacked to indie projects, so I wouldn't worry too much. If anything, big budget RPG competition, might made CDPR care a bit more about their employees.

On one hand, I think it may be that this guy's films aren't for us and we should just stop trying. On the other hand, that's because they're incredibly dull and it's his fault for deliberately making them that way over and over. Overall, I blame him more than I blame us, .

Told dentist I'm supposedly allergic to penicillin but don't really know how severe (it was on my adoption forms, mom always took it seriously, I've been trained to say it). He kept pushing an antibiotic with a name that started with A, asking if I was ok with that. I kept saying I have no idea. I guess he prescribed one called Clindamycin. I can't recall what doctors in the past used to frequently give me, but it wasn't that one. Took 4 doses. Felt a little weird after a while, as if I was abdomen-back tension-stressed. Ate some broth with tiny bits of pork/spinach (so I don't have to chew). Felt worse and worse. Six hours later I threw it all up. The notes for the antibiotic mention nausea and vomiting as possible "side effects". Yeah, I think I won't take any more. First time an antibiotic made me toss my cookies. >.> At least I've had almost no after-extracion swelling/pain. I was expecting worse. Only needed one of the codeine-Tylenol pills, haven't taken any more.

Do not see the arm and leg as a sacrifice, but as a chance to replace the weak flesh and come closer to machine perfection.
