I gave Stray a run today morning and its quite the interesting game. I feel like the cat mechanics had to be the way they are just because you know it would turn into a nightmare for players getting stuck in the city if it was a free-form game but overall its quite a nice story.

Diablo Immortal Player: Game Broke After Spending $100,000 (kotaku.com) I hope Blizzard just does their usual BS here and doesn't refund the money and completely imbalances the game as a result. Why would anyone want to pour in 100K to win is beyond me and then complain that they have no one to compete against. It's actually unfair to the folks who are in the events to have to compete with someone that is so skewed from a player build perspective as its not skill anymore its just the size of your wallet.

Headers incoming.

While I agree its a very congested and also unusual period its just the nature of how things go and some teams will benefit while others wont. I truly believe we're headed into a very injury prone January post the WC because these players are going to be fatigued and still have to grind out games faster than they would normally have to due to the season being on.

Oh I agree it looks and plays really well. I was just curious because someone I know has one and they said they liked that they took the time to do the sprites to pop. I have finally also got my PS5 back so I shall be tackling some titles there hopefully mid month once I put Elden Ring to bed.

Me and @Dr. Gonzo thought it was fantastic last year and the music is really quite the pace-setter especially in the early parts. You playing it on that new OLED Switch or the older one? From what I hear it looks great with the new colors on the newer one.

Like any app Netflix has reached a stage where saturation was bound to happen. When you've got that much content and no discernable way to push it to your users in a way that engages them this is what happens. I use Netflix really just to watch documentaries which they don't even suggest to me even though its pretty much all I watch on there now. Instead I get a top 10 in your country BS list which I wouldn't give the time of day to anymore. They fix that and start to work better with distribution laws and I honestly think they can regain viewership. Disney really put a nail in their coffin because some of the better short series were all Marvel and while we may think "Who wants to watch Marvel" its really what grew their userbase super fast with shows like Daredevil. I wouldn't even put Strange Things into the bucket of good on there anymore. I fully expect Disney to go the same route in about 2 yrs, the only benefit Disney has is that they have a user demographic that Netflix hasn't been able to successfully grab ... kids under the age of 13.

They sound a little bit like Iron Maiden at the start of this song but maybe its just me.

What a world we live in. Where safety comes for a cost. Just disgusting.

Gen Pop: I'm not worried about my data online. Me: Back on topic, that reveal for the Last of Us Remake was very good and this is how remakes should be done. Capcom oddly led the way there with their RE2 remake.

Their bass work is always a bit on the weird side. It's got touches of Jamiroquai in the mid-years and then it switches to this math-rock style that I quite enjoy. The little guitar runs in the middle are also good imo.

Take a trip with Metroid Dread is my recommendation. It's not terribly challenging in terms of difficulty but it can get hard the more things you try and do to complete it.

Welcome back and @Tommy can help I am thinking

Random playlist adrenaline rush

Thor: Love and Thunder - 2.1/10 because its not as bad as a 2 but giving it anything higher would be disingenuous.

Why Lockdown mode from Apple is one of the coolest security ideas ever | Ars Technica Like one of the comments says "I'd turn this on everyday". It seems like in the rush to make things faster we've inevitably opened a lot of weird doors in the cybersecurity space. This, however, is a step in the right direction and I hope the next step is being able to auto-identify sites that are poaching data and then letting the user shutdown whatever they want. It hurts marketing but its also the right thing to do.

They still haven't found the nutter either.

If anyone can do "cloud" gaming right its Microsoft. The rest of them will are light years behind them.

I always thought that opening riff was just a guitar till I realized that dirty punk Justin was up to no good and playing it on a bass and for merry measure he adds a delay too.

Behind the scenes of Waymo’s worst automated truck crash | TechCrunch What's funny in this is that someone who was actually driving a truck caused the incident. Surprised Waymo isn't using that to state that their system is far better than a human-operated truck.

Great stuff if you like Classical Guitar (be warned its an hour long)

From the new album which imo is very good. Also helps that I love a nicely distorted bass.
