Like some of you I presume, I've been playing Lies of P for the first time recently... I took a break from it

Tap for spoiler(brotherhood pt 2: electric bogaloo were kicking my ass)

to do a little fan art. A messy half baked sketch, but fan art nonetheless :P I couldn't resist, Geppetto's puppet is just the cutest kid.

Anyway, I've been really enjoying it! the combat I'm loving the most. As a mostly dodge monkey I feared parrying was going to be overwhelming, but the game eases you in very nicely. Maaan I love seeing those red sparks fly! Cool weapon movesets, the arm spices up the playstyle, and the fable arts are fun, but those feel a bit overpowered now, certainly will be very handy in NG+ cycles.

On that note, bosses have not felt super difficult, and I've enjoyed most of the fights (swamp monster phase 2 did made me sweat but it's ok, my favorite so far has been king of puppets ...least favorite: the mad clown and probably champion Victor, I struggled with his timings so I just dodged, and it was a bit meh that way)

World design, and vibes are all great of course, a beautiful homage to bloodborne in many ways, while doing it's own thing... Story wise I like the way they chose to adpapt this classic.

Over all It's been a pretty tight experience, Lots more good things to say about this game, but I won't bore you with it, I'm sure everything's been said ad nauseum. I've got some minor nitpicks here and there but nothing major. just wanted to ramble on a bit :D

I think the ps+ subscription only gives access to the base game, so I'm a bit bummed about that.

Anyway, sorry for the mega post if you are playing of have played before I'd love to hear about your experience as well. What you loved, what you didn't... Just please mark any endgame spoilers :P

I see people “being led on” a lot and I wonder, what are some actual signs of leading someone on in a relationship?

My 2 yr relationship with my GF is very good, I’m just curious because I do hear the phrase a lot without knowing the literal signs of it.

I also may have been “led on” before by exes.

We're finally able to move past, for now, the Bloomberg abusive copyright strike filing on our AI GPU Black Market movie so that we can get back to our hardware reviews. In this video, we'll talk about the copyright strike system on YouTube, what happens if you counterclaim or file a counter notification to a copyright strike on YouTube, and what happens if it's accepted. We'll also cover how long it takes to get relisted (it was 10 business days exactly from acceptance of the counter notification) and what's next.

I have 3 machines I've switched to Linux: an old laptop with Mint, and my primary laptop and PC runing Ubuntu Studio. I use Protonvpn on all 3.

Today I had my app manager on Mint and Discover on Ubuntu showing new updates. I installed Mint's first, via the manager and Proton was an update. It mentioned it would uninstall a few proton things so I figured it had to uninstall them in order to install the new update. Protonvpn stopped working after, it looked uninstalled but my killswitch was still active (so no internet at all and no access to open the vpn app). I had to find out how to kill the network processes via ncmli (good new info to learn!) and do a roundabout uninstall through a process I found in an old Proton post as just uninstalling it with normal commands didn't work, restart the laptop then reinstall Protonvpn.

So on my laptop and PC, I updated via terminal instead, using sudo apt update/upgrade. All smooth and no issues.

Was my Mint problem a one-off glitch or is there a real difference when updating via update manager vs the terminal?

Pope Leo said “we’re in big trouble” when it comes to the ever-widening pay gap between the rich and poor, citing Elon Musk, who may be on course to become the world’s first trillionaire.

Leo made the remarks while criticising executive pay packages during his first interview with the media.

Reflecting on why the world was so polarised, he said one significant factor was the “continuously wider gap between the income levels of the working class and the money that the wealthiest receive”.

“CEOs that 60 years ago might have been making four to six times more than what the workers are receiving … 600 times more [now],” the pontiff said in excerpts of the interview conducted by Elise Ann Allen, a senior correspondent with the Catholic newspaper Crux as part of a forthcoming biography.

Earlier this month, the board of the electric car maker Tesla said it had proposed a new trillion-dollar pay package for Musk, its chief executive and largest shareholder, if he hit targets set by the company.

Outlining the incentive package, which is unprecedented in corporate history, in a stock market update, the company said: “Yes, you read that correctly.”

The pope, who turned 70 on Sunday, has so far shown to be much more low-key than his predecessor, even if they shared similar progressive political views.

Francis often clashed with the US president, Donald Trump, over his hardline immigration policies, while Leo, formerly Cardinal Robert Prevost, also criticised Trump’s policies on his X account before becoming pope.

Personnel from a U.S. warship boarded a Venezuelan tuna boat with nine fishermen while it was sailing in Venezuelan waters, Venezuela’s foreign minister said on Saturday, underlining strained relations with the United States.

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Tensions between the two nations escalated after U.S. President Donald Trump in August ordered the deployment of warships in the Caribbean, off the coast of the South American country, citing the fight against Latin American drug cartels.

While reading a statement on Saturday, Foreign Minister Yván Gil told journalists the Venezuelan tuna boat was “illegally and hostilely boarded by a United States Navy destroyer” and 18 armed personnel who remained on the vessel for eight hours, preventing communication and the fishermen’s normal activities. They were then released under escort by the Venezuelan navy.
