Ah Paradox is finding their model of releasing unfinished games and getting around to solving it later less appealing!

That is a little disappointing, actually, as Paradox made some damn good games this way. Crusader Kings 2, Hearts of Iron 4 and Stellaris were all made like that.

Streaming is just cable

Hey Googoo, I ain’t gonna watch YouTube if it got ads

I think you should try it. I think an hour is appropriate for a lot of the story beats if you have a decent memory, though maybe an hour and a half would be better suited to some of the more involved parts. A lot of this is affected by your reading speed. There’s a lot of reading.

For what it’s worth, I also played it in bursts, but probably something like 2 hr sessions. There’s a lot of rough, serious material in that game and I found it a lot to process at once, so I took breaks between sessions fairly often.

We ain’t gonna get the sub $15k EVs huh

Now do American companies and institutions

Wild question I never thought I’d be asking, anyone know a stripped down SMS app I can use instead of the default?

I don’t want to see AI features and I don’t wanna participate in helping anyone build a LLM

Hey, that’s hysterical, I’m gonna use that on my boyfriend real soon

Speak for yourself, I’m an absolute treasure.

Oh like in the venture bros

Stupid future run by stupid, greedy fools

Yeah, just wish it was for useful stuff instead of sending human remains to the moon or space tourism.

Commercial space launches are gonna be chockablock full of stuff like these ridiculous Celeste craft huh?

Great that Vulcan worked well, though, its good if there’s more launch vehicles, but shame about some of the missions.

Hell yeah, king, let’s get weird with it

2024 goals just be weird about it

People like influencers because they want to emulate their style and want essentially word of mouth recommendations on things. There’s an element of cognitive dissonance to recognizing they’re just a different form of advertising, and I would think that once that loses its human element, that won’t be as appealing to consumers who enjoy influencers.

This seems like a short term problem.

If marketing agencies move to AI influencers, the consumer will slowly catch on and move away from it.

I like this internet turtle.

Surely it would be faster and easier to like… just write this than to even post about it.

The new ads suck. It’s so frustrating to use. I’m hoping a PiHole will get rid of em but I think I remember reading that Google does some nasty shit to dodge that
