Amazon makes Kindle Paperwhite waterproof—and it still starts at $129 I'm tempted to upgrade, but I'm not sure how often I'd read while wet. I like to think I'd find the time though.

I grew up with the old TVs that my father had bought early in his life, so all I saw was static. When we upgraded we skipped over the test patterns to just the blue tone of a channel without a signal.

Honestly identitariansim of any form is the civic brain rot of our times, only made worse when people kowtow to it and it's hierarchy of what constitutes a legitimate grievance.

Yeah, I much prefer RTwP, but we don't need every game to be in the same vein. I do like their choice of art/graphics direction.

God damn that is an ace assessment.

Do you even need an ID to get into the US? I mean, really, illegal immigration by Europeans is a statistical outlier and can be safely ignored. I feel like I'm missing a joke, but did you think I was a European?

So I'm moving states next week, and will arrive unregistered with the registration deadline already behind me. I'm counting myself as a disenfranchised voter this year.

One one hand, you're fired. On the other hand, you've shot a Vulcan cannon at an F-16.

Speaking of Kirsten Bell, I'm really enjoying The Good Place.

I think we were all thinking that, Shady posted the same thing in another thread as well.

It's not required, it's necessary!

Wtf. I get this game is like a white whale. Given it's a dream subject for game, and it's in a dead genre that publishers are too risk averse to touch. But the amount of support this game get's seems totally disproportional even relative to the sorts of capital that established AAA studios are able to pull. Star Citizen is not THAT special. I wonder if there is some exit strategy at play here.

Noob dev? Noob is newbie, aka greenhorn. Having a newly formed company with veterans is not noob.

Shadow was offloaded to a smaller studio, they are no longer doing bespoke character models and animation and instead are recording easy to obtain data from mocap. It's the third entry in a series that isn't making huge innovations, where market interests are elsewhere. I think it's pretty clear Shadow is becoming a runt amongst AAA line-ups, and is low on the totem poll for Square's resources.

You mean the holding shell Dark Rock Industries, LTD.? That doesn't surprise me, fairly common practice.

Paradox and Versus Evil are the distributing/quasi-publishing partners. With Paradox the publisher on the console port of the first game. Obsidian outright owns the IP.

Well I won't ask where you got your chip on your shoulder. If you are going to setup a camera studio get achieve certain affects, that's a cost anyone would want to reclaim on top of trying to maximize living expense. Plus some of that gear may be on credit. Like... it's a humorous mocking of over-invested photographers but you kill the joke with a false assumption the gear is paid off, with false assumptions on pricing motivations. Only to reveal yourself too as highly invested in the mocking of photographers.
