I know it prints money for them but as a gamer it is super shitty that this is how nintendo has decided to preserve their old games

you can play basically the entire MS/Sony catalogs on their respective consoles. There are so many old nintendo games basically completely lost to time

This appeal being heard by the Georgia Court of Appeals knocks out any chance of the Georgia RICO trial happening this year. It apparently can take up to 8.5 months for them to give a decision. If they rule against the defendants, they'll likely appeal to the Georgia supreme court any way.

Just saw a post that said "August term cases must be decided by March 14, 2025." If this is true, then I would guess the case may not begin until mid to late 2025 at best, assuming the Georgia supreme court rules by mid 2025.

here's a run of the full level with collectibles

definitely still a bunch to do, there are some obvious glitches here such as at the end with enemy ai getting stuck outside the boundaries. it also runs noticeably worse than it used to so optimization will be a priority next posting these videos actually helps because as I'm recording them I notice things that need to be fixed

https://youtu.be/R25hr83VFlc

and here's a video I posted 3 months ago showing the level geometry as it was when I was just blocking it out. Its come a long way

What? Elemental was sold via its trailers as yet another generic Romeo and Juliet story. You think they were trying to do something niche and artsy by making a movie where a fire character falls in love with a water character? Really?
Hasnt their whole bread and butter from the start been telling a simple story with some kind of spin?

they've never been niche and artsyRomeo and Juliet with elements seems like something any era of Pixar could have made

Wut. The first 3 eps are the best eps easily. And the comedy drama tonal shift is pretty much what makes Korean cinema. And it was incredibly funny!
I just dont think what comedy it had was very funny.

it had some powerful scenes and I dont like, regret watching it or anything. It was like a 6 or 7 out of 10 show.

it was audacious and it tried some interesting things and the narrative framing device was great especially with the reveal at the end but I dont feel like it added up to the sum of its parts

disagree, I thought it was pretty mid and did not live up to what it could have been at all

by the end it picks up but it did not succeed as whatever it was trying to be--if it was a comedy it wasn't very funny and if it was a drama the comedy plotting undercuts it

ending was good tho

Hopefully we get a decent ending. Season 1 was the best, and it got slowly worse as the show went on. By the end of 3, I was kind of feeling done with the show.

Enough time has passed that I think I'm ready for a final season... but man back when 3 was fresh, I was about ready to drop the show...
i give season 3 a break because it was clearly written around contriving a reason to have as few actors as possible interacting with as few others as possible (due to covid restrictions at the time)

the probably should have just delayed it but idk what went into that decision

so blender "helpfully" deletes things that you don't have assigned to an object when you close it. so animations, geometry node setups, shaders, etc.

super fucking annoying. I lost one of my geometry node collections to this, and I'm rebuilding it trying to make it better and I'm making some decent progress

earlier I had built some buildings by making frames, and then manually adding in all the walls by duplicating the edges and using a "wood plane" geometry node I had.

Working on automating that and making it just one collection but it's tough. I'm learning a good amount though
