When my friend’s daughter was 9 years old and he was complaining how she didn’t know how to read an analogue clock.
I mean, I wound up teaching my nephews when they were 4 … not sure what’s stopping him from doing it though.

Supposed to do the end game content for Expedition 33 but I’ll probably just be doing rounds of Megabonk.

I liked Korra too. I liked the aesthetics and call backs … they didn’t feel as “in your face”. It doesn’t have the majesty of the original series, but I liked it still!
- Comment on Here we go again... 3 days ago:
That’s fair.
I was mainly talking about the movie and netflix series.
I considered the original and series and Korra locked in together as they were made by the original creators and we were mainly talking about offshoots.

Even better when your team isn’t in. So you gotta go in to do Zoom calls …

I dunno, not even old franchise but even with Avatar the Last Airbender … they keep trying to retell Aang’s story when they could do so many others stories within the universe and give nods to the original. Repeatedly doing the same storyline makes it feel smaller.

I can’t tell the diff in FPS performance. I wish I could.
When I got my PS5 and played some games I was like, wow the future is here! Turns out I was playing PS4 games. Also I turned on and off ray-tracing for SpiderMan and couldn’t tell either.
- Comment on Zuckerberg hailed AI ‘superintelligence’. Then his smart glasses failed on stage | Matthew Cantor 4 weeks ago:
My friend told me that one of her former colleagues, wicked smart dude, was talking to her about space. Then he went off about how there were pyramids on Mars. She was like, “oh … I’m quite caught up on this stuff and I haven’t heard of this info. Where can I find this info?” The guy apparently has been having super long chats with whatever LLMand thinks that they’re now diving into the “truth” now.

- Comment on Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Tops 4.4 million sales - IGN 5 weeks ago:
I self-inflicted some pain like that for me as well.
I got close to the end of Act 2 and my friend said that the difficulty was too easy and I breezing pass everything and to switch it to Expert. Well guess what. I didn’t level, upgrade or put my Pictos in a way to deal with it. So most of my boss fights turned from a close-win into 45 minutes of me dying a lot. Like, I’d be one-shotted so often.
I then took some time and then cashed in some Lumina for stories and then actually put some strats in and went through the skill tree. I think it was worthwhile in the end but it totally changed the experience for me.
- Comment on Day 425 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 5 weeks ago:
I really wanted to like the remakes.
Playing the FF7 remake felt really dated in terms of a lot of things. After playing God of War and others, the cinematics felt cheesy and less cohesive now in FF … I didn’t care for much of any of the voice acting. A lot of the side quests didn’t fit “in world” to me. The heck do I care about some lost kittens? Not sure what’s going on with the “ghosts”. I didn’t like the combat and found it annoying. Which is strange because I enjoyed FF15: The backstreet boys edition and even Guardians.
On the positives, I felt if I could take a screenshot of any part of the game and sent it back to the younger version of me … My mind would be blown. I’d just stop the game several times to just admire the scenery and the look.
spoilers!
Fighting Sephiroth so many times felt odd. I felt it feel off story-wise.
Everyone loves FF 7 remake and all that and I know I’m in minority but it put me off Rebirth. I’m happy other people enjoy it now though. I just wish I was one of them.

It happens. I don’t feel the need to put them down as I didn’t think that was their intent to do so to me.

- Comment on YouTube is now flagging accounts on Premium family plans that aren't in the same household 1 month ago:
I’ll join you in the downvotes. There’s many reasons to hate YouTube. Asking them to pay for video content to everyone for free is a bit silly.
I’m also not saying you shouldn’t use alternatives or run an ad-blocker. Those are cool. I just find it funny how someone is saying: “I get some benefit in paying for this service” results in such backlash, lol.

- Comment on The time and expense of commuting is theft, if that job can be done from home. 1 month ago:
I take a bus and then walk … half hour or so on the bus and half hour or so of walking. If I drive it’s like 35-45 minutes?
However, I’m always more tired when I arrive there. Also, I’m not a fan of finding parking and stuff around the office.

Right because lesbians should only exist in pornos (like the GGW ones Snoop promoted at one point). Definitely not in real life, right Snoop?
Fucks sake, we can’t depict two people in love because you can’t explain it to your grandson? Should we not depict space travel or is he a rocket scientist that we don’t know about?
- Comment on Many primary school kids will never have a male teacher, and experts say that's a problem 2 months ago:
I wanted to be a teacher since I was 6 years old. My brother taught me so much growing up and I realized my peers didn’t know as much. I got a lot of satisfaction from getting my friends - who were trouble makers - into doing well at school. I always got them to a comfort level where they could ask obviously dumb questions. I can’t afford to trade that in, in this economy.
Although, most people say the teachers who are idealistic like myself don’t last. The ones that treat it like a job do.
