What video game have you played the most, that you think is garbage and no one else should ever play?
  • Hard agree with you that D2 was better than D3 in every way. I also bought D2r and played it a bit at launch.

    Have you played any D4 yet? As someone who never loved D3 I will say that D4 has been refreshing. I have some low level gripes with it, but overall I am really enjoying it.

  • It only takes half the double hits it used to take!
  • I had this problem with Cyberpunk and eventually just stopped playing. Every time I’d get a cool new weapon and want to go beat up on some street fighting scrubs only to get my ass kicked.

    I prefer difficulty scaling where it’s somewhat linked to areas. Kind of like Diablo 2. So if I’m leveled up and beat Act V I can go back and tear through Andariel runs if I want, but Act V still has some challenging areas. I don’t think the entire world needs to scale as you progress.

  • Voters think Trump is a criminal, Biden is too old and DeSantis is a fascist: poll
  • This may not sway your vote, but a vote for a candidate that isn’t going to win might as well be a vote for Trump. The 2020 election was decide by 43,000 votes across three states. Maybe another Trump term is okay with you, but it’s something to consider.

  • Paul McCartney: AI has enabled a “final” Beatles song
  • Interesting, I wonder why this couldn’t be accomplished with conventional techniques. I own a handful of “AI” Plugins meant to achieve similar cleanup and I feel like it always needs to be tweaked to sound right. And that’s for a guy like me without practiced mixing ears. I wonder why real studio engineers needed AI.

  • US consumer prices rise moderately; underlying inflation strong
  • We were lucky enough to have bought our house in 2017 and refinanced during the historic low rates of 2020. At this point we are paying more per month for food than we do for our mortgage. I feel extremely fortunate and I feel badly for the millions out there dealing with this plus rent increases and the moratorium on student loans ending this summer.

  • New House Flooring - Is solid wood still best?
  • I have no expertise, but I would recommend balancing aesthetics with utility. We have an engineered hardwood in our house and our Golden has more or less destroyed it over 6 years just from normal use. My parents have this tile flooring that looks like hardwood and it’s SO robust. They have four dogs and their floors still look perfect. If I was going to do it all over again, I’d get the stylized tile.

  • How did you discover the Cosmere?
  • 6 months! That’s quick. For me, my friend told me stop wasting my time with A Song if Ice and Fire because it will never be finished. He told me to check out Sanderson.

    Flash forward and we now do a podcast a la Binge Mode covering the series. We started with Mistborn Era 1 and we are now in the second book of Era 2. I can’t get enough!

    We have to go at a slower pace for production purposes but it’s so fun and this may take us years, but I’m here for it.

  • Now is the time to post original content
  • I like this idea. It always bothered me that there were so many creative people on Reddit and they could not use Reddit to share their content because most subs had a “no self promotion” policy.

    I get that you don’t want people spamming, but if someone works hard to create content they think a community would like then I see no reason that shouldn’t be celebrated.

  • In response to the disastrous Spez AMA, /r/Videos have announced that they will permanently shut down on 11th June, one day ahead of the planned blackout
  • In my opinion having mainstream adoption is a double edged sword. It’s nice to have that larger user base, but at the same time most subreddits went to crap when they became default subs. I’ll never forget starting out my career r/personalfinance was not a default sub and I could get very insightful specific advice from people who really seemed to understand what they were talking about. Flash forward and it became a default sub. Now it’s an echo chamber and borderline circlejerk sub. It feels like a parody of what it used to be.

    So far I don’t miss that or mind the smaller feel here.
