clunky and slow interface of email that for some reason we continue using 30 years later

Email is actually great, it's the original fediverse - anyone can start a server and interoperate with everyone else. With a decent client it doesn't need to be clunky either, although with 90% of people stuck in webmail I can understand why people think it sucks.

“Two movies we cite as comps for what we’re hoping to do are Training Day and Crimson Tide,” Goldstein tells Inverse.

Hmm, I like both of those movies but way different vibes. Crimson Tide might as well already be a Trek script, but Training Day? Freshly minted Captain versus effective but corrupt badmiral perhaps? XO and captain maybe?

My hopes this will be made are pretty low, but there could be some good Trek here. Especially if they actually made a movie that wasn't a cameo fest (it does say all new characters).

I'm not sure I agree this is an awful location if you're going to make a big studio campus. It's not in Austin atm but it will be eventually (it's currently surrounded) and 290/183 are useful veins. You say "outside Manor" like it's also not ~10 miles from the capitol and downtown. In LA terms that's basically nothing.

That said, as an eastsider, yeah fuck the billionaires generally and the Ellisons specifically.

Trans? More power to you.

CIA? Go fuck yourself.

Haha, me too. I watch a streamer, Vulrhund, fight ten thousand zombies and end up in a powered bachelor pad that he built, plastered, painted and furnished over the course of an in game year...

Meanwhile I have like 500 hours and my last death was eating lethal mushrooms I foraged on day three. My best run ever was maybe 2.5 months. I'm not sure I've ever actually lived long enough to harvest any crops I planted.

Peter Gibbons in Office Space.

Turns out I liked the game only because of what I thought the game could be instead of what it actually was.

I never played Star Citizen, but this is kinda where I ended up with No Man's Sky. I played it at launch and again earlier this year and there's definitely some fun to be had but nothing fits together right, or feels fully realized. NMS lost a coherent vision of the game at some point and eventually it just made me itch to play better games that were more focused.

Fuck a movie, we need a Xena sequel series. Get Lucy Lawless and Renee O'Connor back to pass the torch to a new generation of ass kicking women.

Ideally, both of them could be regulars as well, I just don't think they'd be down to do the fights anymore.

Totally. I had a few runs on it while it was in the unstable branch and the new mechanics are great, but firing it up after the stable release and seeing all the love put into older map locales really made it feel like a brand new game.

3 all day, every day. I can no longer sit normally, I can only lounge.

It's basically the best virtualization platform. It can do full system emulation across a number of platforms, or hardware assisted virtualization (using KVM). It's incredibly useful for debug as well as doing real work.

Uh, what? The Ayn Rand garbage philosophy? I've never heard that and don't see how that jibes with a free, crowd sourced encyclopedia...
