This is just poor engineering. They could save money by using jam nuts.

…I’m listening…

Who is Jerma, and why does his crap clog my YouTube feed? Except it’s not Jerma’s stuff, but people making videos about Jerma.

There is a local “rock” station I started listening to when I moved into the area. Their playlist was limited, and I quickly realized they would play the exact same songs at almost the exact same time every day. I think the weekend was the only time I ever heard any recent music.

I drove a lot, so I subscribed to XM. That was super nice, but pretty soon I noticed the same thing. I switched channels a lot, then started listening to a talk channel because I tired of the same songs. (O&A, Ron & Fez, fuck you Anthony you racist piece of shit…)

I dumped XM, started listening to podcasts. And I expanded my music library 10-fold through the wonders of privateering.

Recently I was outside at lunchtime, and someone was sitting in their car listening to that same old local “rock” station. And they are still playing the same garbage songs at pretty much the same exact time every day.

Instead of having some form of verifiable indication, people are just supposed to “think hard”? Have you looked around lately?

The problem only gets worse with AI creeping closer.

What? I prefer knowing if someone I interact with is genuine. As opposed to Twitter, where I just know they have a recurring monthly payment.

I have to pay for Subaru-brand OnStar before the heated seats are even an option. I didn’t know the seats were subscription when I bought the car, they just said OnStar was free for a year.

Subaru does this.

Pretty much any of the 2d Zeldas fit this bill. Link to the Past/between Worlds… Link’s Awakening…etc. There’s also a game called Oceanhorn from several years ago that tried to be a Zelda clone, but I didn’t get very far in it.

I can’t wait until holographic storage comes in spheres, and you have to bring it to an old Gypsy woman if you forget the encryption key.

Nope, not playing Card Wars with evil robot Jake.

Every single Microsoft site still does this.

One of the arcades in the town I grew up in had one of these, for a short time. I never played it (I was young enough to not be interested) but saw some of the older kids playing it. Pretty soon afterwards my dad forbid (forbade?) me from that arcade, because he heard that’s where they sold “drugs”. I never made the connection until just now. Pissed me off, because that arcade had Robotron.

PERCUSSIVE ENTRANCED MEN

I’ve never played, but the videos I’ve seen look like a button-mashing nightmare. And I think you underestimate the Elder Scrolls lore.

Yeah, but those were meant to be quick, quarter-driven games. Think of Zork and those games (all text). Think of the old Sierra games (King’s Quest 1 had text commands, KQ5(?) was point-and-click).

As computer speed and graphics have grown, story has often suffered.

Games have been steadily driving away from story-oriented to action-oriented since they began. I expect ES6 to be some type of Dark Souls clone.
