How can they be in tech when they deny science and believe in mythology?

maybe if their leader(s) hadn't spent 20+ years attempting to subvert global democracy and sow seeds of radical, racist violence across the internet we'd feel a touch different...

Absolutely agree with this statement. They seem to have no pipeline for keeping up with this console lifecycle.

As the owner of a Series X and PS5, they're just streaming boxes that I occasionally use to play stuff that won't run under Proton.

Thankfully they've updated the design to address the stick drift!

I'm the cash-shop-anocerous. All my microtransactions bleed your wallet like a phlebotomus.

That's wild. I really enjoyed it and recently rewatched it looking for all the shadow appearances of the devil and other clues sprinkled throughout. The ARG and trailers leading to release were fantastic imo as well.

That said, absolutely respect your opinion on it. I think its another movie like Hereditary that may be a victim of its own hype train after the initial buzz wears off.

Sometimes horror movies hit hard with the preview and opening audiences then get shredded by the 2nd wave of viewers. I try to track this mentally and look for films that find that 3rd wave of appreciation once we're 10 or so years away from the initial hype. Been seeing that happen a lot with the mid-late 90's post scream movies lately. Stuff that was considered utter drek then is being viewed as special now that were a few decades away.

in keeping with the all caps sentiment

FUUUUUUUCCCCKKKKK YEEEEEESSSSSSS!!!!

I will go all in on a case of Mt Mist (balling on a budget) and plastic, bulk sack of fritos twists if that happened. My boy and I still load up Jet Moto 2 for a few races a couple times a year.

There's actually 2 recent versions.

A tv show that was pretty up its own ass in trying to paint the new Heathers as overtly millennial.

And a musical which I've only seen the TV adapted version of and it was... decent.

I dunno man, I grew up with the original as a favorite of my early and mid-teens so I probably have some sacred cows about it that prevent me from accepting any updates as something more than a pale imitation.
