Seth Abramson eviscerated both Elon Musk and his “fanboys” who have attempted to use the billionaire’s IQ as an indication of his intellectual prowess

I guarantee his IQ is made up too. Not that an IQ test actually means shit.

I don't think they've made that connection yet.

Oh not only are you caught torrenting everything on the internet, but you're also a leech? Talk about a piece of shit.

Also if this holds, piracy is legal. We'll just all switch to Usenet where you don't need to seed!

Yeah it's still looking pretty rough, but I guess it is playable. Drops below 30 quite regularly and relies heavily on upscaling. But it looks like a better experience than FF7 Rebirth is on steam deck.

For handheld, I'd live with it if I couldn't stream from a PC for whatever reason. But if playing docked on a monitor or tv, this wouldn't cut it for me.

Note, I haven't actually bought this game yet, I'm waiting for sales.

I just have to keep reminding myself that these are games designed and targeted for the PS5, and to honestly be running in any decent capacity on the steam deck is quite a feat in its own right.

To shreds, you say?

They've been updating it regularly and it's in a much better state today than it was at launch.

It's not for the employees or customers. It's for the people who drive past.

Lol of course not.

The school never bothered to tell the parents their kid was being bullied.

 

If you aren't aware, the Ghost Stories English Dub is one of the most insane dubs ever made. It's incredibly offensive and racist and bat shit insane at times and it's probably one of the funniest things I've ever watched. Scamboli Reviews has a great summary video about it. If you have time, it's worth watching this anime at least once in your life.

 

Can we discuss the start of act 2?

I made it a point not to roll back my saves for any decision I make. So far, I've managed to save the tiefling's at the druid camp. Being a tiefling myself, I want to see them make it!

This made me all the more excited to see all the tiefling's that I'd saved make it this far. And boy were there a lot of them. So many people I recognized from previous conversations or quests. I was thrilled! And they of course remembered me.

I say all this to emphasize how hard it hit me when I wasn't able to protect Isabel. That whole interaction blindsided me so bad. And my initiative roll was horrible for all my characters, I ended up being paralyzed and they just slaughtered her in 2 turns.

It was a freaking gut punch, the likes I haven't felt in a game in years. All those innocent people, turned to monsters, then forcing me to put them down.

My main character was always so optimistic before this. This interaction is gonna make me change the way I play and the decisions I make going forward, just to really add to the impact of him losing all those people he cared about, thinking the decisions he made led to their death.

Is there anyone living the good life with their tiefling friends in the Last Light Inn? Anyone who saved Isabel? Because my character just lost his people and is a broken person now because of it.
