They had this at the screening I went to. I wonder what they'll do for the home release version?
I saw it hoping this was the case, but sadly it's just not very good. I loved the visuals, the ambition, and his commitment to try and breakout of traditional storytelling methods, but the ham-fisted handling of the subject matter really ruined it for me. By all means see it for yourself and be your own judge but I wouldn't go in expecting an underrated masterpiece.
Absolutely, there is sooooo much more content now and the balance and QoL is tonnes better too. Still recommend using the wiki late game though.
We've been using QGIS at my company for almost 8 years at this point and I really love it. The python integration and deep plugin repository render it head and shoulders above ESRI. Although I admit for enterprise solutions many will still require the turn-key solutions esri offer.
Got to speak with a guy who was stationed there over the winter. He said of the ~15 or so winter staff it was mostly engineering types, with the majority of the scientists there just in the summer months. Seemed like a pretty cool (heh) gig, but not too surprising that there's a dearth of linux machines imo.
I completely agree, and in general working with email programmatically sucks. MIME is a mimefield.
We unironically do this with people looking to get temporary working visas in Australia. It's wild.
I think there is a stark distinction between "really fun" and "one of the best games ever". This list contains almost nothing which pushed against the barriers of gaming either now or in the past.
Some really weird picks here. A few standout bad takes:
- Diablo 4
- Football Manager
- AC Odyssey
- Mario Kart 8
I've had more than one person I work with take screenshots of their desktop, paste them into a word document, then attach the word document to an email to get me to help them with their problem. This has the same energy.
I agree but my friends keep facilitating my addiction because I always give loaves away and now they've stopped buying bread too. Help 😭
Water security is a real issue though. Coober Pedy relies on water being trucked in from the coast which is only viable there because of the wealth extraction from the opal trade.
In many outback towns there are legitimate questions around long-term viability due to increasing water scarcity. I agree that humans are resilient and resourceful, but there is much more to existing under a warming climate than escaping the midday sun.
Holy shit I'd completely forgotten about this guy -memory unlocked. Thanks (I think)!
As novel and interesting as this place is, it really shouldn't exist. It is just there for people trying to get rich mining opals and, by all accounts, is a really bleak and depressing place. Sorry for being a downer!
The Sparrow by Mary Doria Russell comes to mind. A Jesuit priest is the only survivor of a first-contact flight to an alien world and returns horribly disfigured in mind and body and refuses to talk about what happened. We slowly learn what happened to everyone as the story unfolds. Great SF novel and not religious, although it explores religion.
I took a bus from Mendoza to Santiago that went down this road. Was pretty crazy at the time but still way less sketchy than the buses going through Bolivia.
For the most ethical of people going to business school. Everyone else lied.
