Don’t add Pokemon Go in the 10 years club…
I remember being in yr11, Classmate comes in and says “have you heard of Pokemon Go?” I didn’t even have a mobile phone at that time (thanks mom/dad/bible) so obviously no.
10 years after highschool, and if my school DID had those 10 year reunion things like the movies, I have nothing to share…

Shame that you didn’t like Nier Automata. If I have to point a flaw, it can have “im14andThisIsDeep” vibes, but I wouldn’t call it awful.
100% I was (still am) biased. Shaun’s was the only thoughts I had until here. Felt unfair that I hated a game so much I’ve never even played.
Opened Steam to check the price and OH BOY. $109 AUD. Guess the demo will have to be my thoughts for the time being

Shaun has a video essay on Stellar Blade. According to him, its very much “can I copy your homework” of Nier Automata, and some sekiro gameplay.
I have only played the the later 2. Nier Automata is something I will never forget, and (IMO) Sekiro is the best Fromsoft+Combat game. Highly recomend both of them

Rewatched Robert Pattersons The Batman recently. Re-realised that Bruce Wayne could have made a bigger impact to the city instead of Batman.
So I am guessing that what the video is about

- Comment on There are people out there who could utterly smash world records but no-one will never know as they haven't taken up that sport. 1 week ago:
We have a student here in Outback AUS. Amazing at high jump and long jump. Went to the Big Cities twice to represent his state in athletics. And he only got a chance because the new sport teacher came in and pushed for him to go.
Out last sports teacher wouldn’t have made the effort. And who knows how many other great students walked through our doors, and didn’t get a chance to train/go big because of funds/transport/staff engagement etc.

IRL, I have to explain that I saw a post on “weird open source reddit alternative”. While here, everyone is (mostly) on the same wave length.

Ignorant non-American here. Why are the trees east and west safe?
I’m guessing trees north are used to the cold, so won’t explode, and south isn’t getting cold enough to explode. But what about east and west? (I already know the bare minimum of the US, but that central north region I know even less)

Would Cave Johnson get mad at people abusing his invention?
Or would he immediately cancel all other tests, and start exclusively testing all the self pleasure applications for his invention?

If everyone opens the map, sees the blank space, then walks away, no one will start.
I’ll be willing to start, and hopefully others will join.

Is there a map that shows where are using them? It looks like a fun idea, but I don’t want to get something and no one is using it in my region. (Outback Australia)

I saw a cool video here once. Typed the EXACT title to YouTube (including caps in the right words) and it didn’t show up. Only the big channels around that topic.
Personal rant that is still related, but not needed
Hell, I play trackmania turbo. Its still getting new videos from the community. 3-5 vidoes a week. Look it up, and some of the first results are a non-turbo player uploading 1 video 4 years ago. But since that channel is getting millions of videos, THAT video is promoted, not the fans still playing now.
- Comment on What is with these videos where it's just someone reaction to shit someone else is doing? 5 weeks ago:
If I want to watch 10 minutes of funny shorts/tik toks, do I
a) open my feed, where I have a chance to find not funny content, and have to physically swipe for every video? Plus laughing alone is not as fun as laughing with someone else
Or
b) watch sniper-ali-freerobuckz watch the good ones, and I can sit back and enjoy someone to laugh with?
I’m not defending reaction content. They are obviously lazy and just copy-pasting for easy views, but I can see why they get clicks.
