Happy to donate a little bit!

Congratulations and good work! Thanks for all your efforts.

In Enderal (an absolutely amazing, totally free game that runs on the Skyrim engine - if you own Skyrim you owe it to yourself to play Enderal), at the end of Esme’s questline, sitting on top of the lighthouse and discussing the events of her story.

Gods yes. What a brilliant piece of writing that DLC was - simultaneously hilarious and deeply poignant.

Saw it last night, mostly agree with this take on it, though in a bit less glowing terms. I didn’t think the emotional payoff alluded to in this review really worked, because I didn’t think they’d laid enough groundwork for it. Too much of this movie was more storyboard than story, with not enough time spent on actually delving into these characters’ feelings and relationships. That said, it was definitely a fun popcorn flick, with some great action, a good sense of humor, fun characters, and, as the article points out, minimal required external knowledge. And everything said about the publicity was spot on.

Yes, from the poster for the movie “Stripes”.

Glib (though truthful) answers aside, I thought this was a good read. Thank you for posting it.

After finishing a playthrough of Baldur’s Gate 3, I’m now on Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands. Fun, but nowhere near as good as the original Tiny Tina DLC for BL2. Still, I’m 26 hours in and I’ll definitely finish it. After that… maybe I’ll go back and do a different run of BG3. I’m looking forward to getting back to CP2077 and picking up Phantom Liberty, but I’m going to wait for that to be on some sort of sale.

YOU GET A HEADSHOT, AND YOU GET A HEADSHOT!

No. And while I will treat those who do with the same level of dignity and respect I grant to everyone, I secretly do think less of them for it (especially when I see them perpetuating the indoctrination with their children).

Good call. Thank you for doing what you need to do to support the site and protect the users as necessary. And as always, the honesty and transparency is appreciated.

Thanks for the update!

Current game pet peeve - the delay after each enemy acts in combat in Baldur’s Gate 3. I absolutely love this game, but big combats take longer than they should because after each enemy acts, there seems to be a 5-10 second delay before moving on to the next.

Favorite game pet peeve - The overall poor performance/memory management in HBS’s Battletech game. Again, love the game, have put nearly 2000 hours into it over the years, but damn the performance can just be painful sometimes.

AC/DC - You Shook Me All Night Long

Kiss - God of Thunder (Destroyer was the first album I owned)

Once again, thank you for the transparency and for keeping us (the users) informed, as well as for all the work you do to keep lemmy.world going.

Depends, if it’s hot enough to need the AC, door closed. If not, door open so I can open the window and get some airflow.

RIF was fun for reddit

As a teenager, I worked in a local single-screen movie theater in an affluent town and had occasion to meet John Delancy (Q from Star Trek Next Gen) who was very friendly, and Jason Robards, who was pleasant enough but kept to himself. I’ve met a few famous people at conventions, but the best was Adrienne Barbeau, who I met at a horror convention in Worcester, MA years ago. It was early and there weren’t a lot of people around yet, so we went over to say hello. We spent about half an hour just talking, commiserating over the then-very-recent cancellation of Carnivale on HBO. She was an absolutely lovely person in every way.

Milk, milk tea, and 2 different smoothies, but no milkshakes? Bah!

You guys are absolutely amazing. So many thanks to you @Ruud and the entire admin/troubleshooting team! Thank you.
