The new update is horrible. They are blocking critical comments and gaslighting users too.

Sadly it’s not even close to the final nail. The largest reason being there isn’t anything to take its place. While I love Lemmy, there are still too many hurdles and roadblocks to getting started compared to other social media platforms and all of those established ones are doing similar moves to Reddit’s nonsense. But just like why Mastodon hasn’t topple Twitter is that the ease of use and user base isn’t there.

Until someone can offer the same(ish) experience that almost fully featured and super easy to get start. Most users won’t break their habits. They only other way is to offer something that is better than the other platforms (since this can be wildly subjective) again ease of use and standardized features are incredibly important.

Will Twitter, Reddit and Facebook go the way of MySpace? I’m sure at some point. But only until something can truly replace or pull users.

Mattress Firm.

…I’ve said to much…

Which they split the diff and call 55% in the strat guide to give you misguided hope. 😔

Yes, yes they did. It’s actually a pretty fun watch.

It deals with the licensing fiasco that occurred when the game released.

Many companies saw the potential in the game’s popularity and so an all out bidding war/competition for rights occurred between Soviet Government, Bulletproof, Holobyte, Mirrorsoft and most notably Nintendo.

Saw the clips. Not impressed.

Outside of it being a new clickbait trend the movies, the example they are using lose way more because they are totally changing the scene composition.

Consider the attention to detail and visuals in Akira. If they expanded the visuals to be portrait oriented they wouldn’t have such drab, empty, uninspired art in the added space. Which is exactly what AI does in this instance. It makes the examples (Akira especially) look less compelling, less focused, and in the event it does have something decently render takes away from the true composition of the shit so it ruins the content of said shot.

My two cents.

“There’s content out there that doesn’t cater to my superiority as a single-white-male?! It must be the work of the devil!”

Seriously. The movie is killing it because people enjoy watching it.

I had it on original Nintendo. But the Gameboy version is almost the same (to my knowledge) just without the color pallet.

Also the story of Tetris and how it got lisenced is crazy. The new Tetris movie is a fun (albeit with Hollywood coat of paint) recount.

Tetris. Straight original is so simple accessible and addictive. I really haven’t cared for much else they done with it since. It was perfection also out the gate.

Also, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. I can play it anytime, anyplace. The gameplay, music, graphics even today just feel so go for being 2D

I’m excited to see Kamala again because while it wasn’t really my demographic the Ms. Marvel show was pretty good. But I’m still underwhelmed by Brie Larson as Captain Marvel.

It looks like the villain is Dar-Ben which is kinda a second-rate Ronan by my understanding.

Just from the preview I have no inclination that anything is really at stake. Three super powered heroes, one of which has a reputation throughout the galaxy. What’s at stake? There’s a throwaway line about destroying worlds but that’s not really stakes when the viewer knows there won’t be any “Snap/Blip” event because that kinda of thing they’d save for a Avengers movie.
