  • You have 4 in your library, but only 1 is installed; it’s Call of Duty. Since there’s no need for physical media anymore, the footprint of games has ballooned to the point where if you want to install CoD, it’s going to cost you 2TB of storage. They threw in 8k textures just for the 0.0001% of players that actually have an 8k TV, and there are a lot of textures since the Big Chungus update which introduced 255 different coloured Chungus textures for every weapon and weapon attachment combination in the game.

    Accelerationism isn’t just being apathetic, it’s actively making things worse. It’s voting for Trump because the DNC didn’t elect Bernie Sanders.

    Lenin was much the same. He knew a revolution wouldn’t happen if things got better, so he did everything he could to make things as bad as humanly possible. When the provisional government came along, granted free speech rights and universal suffrage, Lenin was vehemently opposed to it, because you can’t have a communist revolution when stuff is going well. A stable government is not one you can overthrow.


  • Ah yes I remember “three guys one hammer” which was a video of three Ukrainian serial killers stabbing a guy in the eye and repeatedly in the stomach with a screwdriver and then beating him to death with a hammer.

    Apparently one of the killers got out of prison in 2019. I imagine he’s probably dead by now, given that he was most likely conscripted.




  • Just once I want to see a subversion of the trope where someone goes to another country/planet, and instead of the noble savage trope, they go home going “Oh yeah I’m never going back there, it sucks. I caught a rash where my entire arm turned a pinkish brown. Absolutely terrifying place”.

    That, or they go to the other country, and are like “These savages are primitive, but they have PRIDE! They are a noble people!” and the natives aren’t even that different, they just have cassette tapes or use Betamax or HD-DVD. They’re sitting there watching Terminator or something and this guy is just freaking out. Oh! Oh the poor souls! Don’t they know that Blu Ray is the superior format?!

    I wish GOG Galaxy and Playnite were good launchers. I don’t like Epic and I don’t like the stranglehold Steam has on the market. Basically I want a launcher where I can see all of my games, but I also want to be able to open as many stores as I want, and then be able to compare prices and then buy from each of those stores within the same launcher.
