Why would an America consultancy like SBI try to go after a devloper in China, when SBI likely knows little about Chinese culture?

they wouldn't.

Gamers are just stupid.

most of the time, the originals are overrated and aren't as good as the stories they're based on.

oh yea, since you said you're into puzzle games, then Return of the Obra Dinn.

for Disco Elysium, it's all voiced.

for Baldur's Gate 3, it's an RPG that allows you a bunch of freedom, and is really rewarding if you take the time get to know its systems.

you can also co-op, if you want.

Alan Wake 2.

it feels like Twin Peaks x True Detective.

also, have you played Baldur's Gate 3 or Disco Elysium?

I think the only real difference between nazis and neo-nazis is that the latter is comprised of people from backgrounds that the former would have seen as inferior.

They have my fingerprints but dont know that theyre mine

they took them off the crime scene, but I was never caught

:/

yea, when I was a kid, I decided to join my school's DARE program, and they took our finger prints.

I was in the fifth grade, I think.

trash is trash

sorry, I meant a deep sale or price discount.

RIP to him

I used to think vol. 2 had the clear edge, but after a second watch of vol. 1, I honestly can't choose - both of them are really good

What isn't Naomi Scott getting more work?

I just checked her wiki, and it looks like she has four movies coming out

Honestly it seemed like he was trying in Hancock and i Robot and everyone shat all that over them

After that he kinda seemed to say fuck it imo and after the movie with his son, he stopped being a draw for me. I still want to check out the new bad boys movies tho.

yea, I heard it's pretty fun, so I might end up watching it too

Will is a good actor, when the role calls for it, but since he's a megastar, his roles are mostly "be Will Smith, but in this situation".

as for the Aladdin remake, I haven't seen it.

I've heard both good and bad, but mostly good...I'm not into those kind of movies anymore, though, so I don't think I'll ever watch it.

there's something about how astronauts are likelier to experience kidney stones, and they attributed it to the bone thing like someone said, but maybe it's because of the kidneys being affected.

Ohh Pluto is good!

tbh, I was just thirding what tri-sapphire & TC already posted.

damn.

I guess they were "lucky" then, but I can imagine some of them will be traumatized.

Tbh I didn't realize being upside down for half an hour wasn't deadly.

idk about deadly, but Google says how you shouldn't stay upside down for more than a few minutes

when people say stuff like, "you're always going to be an addict", it usually means that even if you break the habit, you'll always have it loom over you.

that's unfortunately why so many people relapse, but don't let that make you feel like you always will since not everyone is able to do it the first time.

anyway, I'm hoping for the best for you.

that sucks :/

unfortunately there was nothing they could do about that.

I remember him being on Fresh & Fit and his content getting him deplatformed at Twitch?

antiquated/rigid views of professionalism.

people have weird ideas of what they consider professional, and want others to conform to it.

it has also led to racist hiring practices, where PoC with natural hair were denied jobs.

Framed #828

they were stuck upside down for about half an hour:

Emergency crews in Oregon rescued 28 people Friday after they were stuck for about half an hour dangling upside down high on a ride at a century-old amusement park.

Portland Fire and Rescue said on the social platform X that firefighters worked with engineers at Oaks Park to manually lower the ride, but crews had been preparing to conduct a high-angle ropes rescue if necessary. All riders were being evacuated and medically evaluated, and there were no reports of injuries.

One rider with a pre-existing medical condition was taken to a hospital for further evaluation as a precaution, Oaks Amusement Park said in a statement posted on social media. Medics released all other passengers.

The ride, called AtmosFEAR, operates like a pendulum, with the capacity to swing riders completely upside down.

Chris Ryan and his wife, from nearby Gresham, were at the park for his birthday. He told The Associated Press in a Facebook message that they had just been planning to ride AtmosFEAR when they saw it was stuck and heard people saying, Oh my God, they are upside down.

They decided to walk away because of how scary the situation was, he said. They eventually got on the Ferris wheel and heard a loudspeaker announcement that the park was closed and that people should evacuate.

When the ride stopped, park staff immediately called 911 and emergency responders arrived about 25 minutes later, the park statement said. Park maintenance workers were able to return the ride to its unloading position minutes after first responders arrived.

Portland Fire said about 30 people were on board. The amusement park statement said there were 28 riders.

The ride has been in operation since 2021 and has not had any prior incidents, the park said. It will remain closed until further notice. The park said it would work with the rides manufacturer and state inspectors to determine the cause of the stoppage.

We wish to express our deepest appreciation to the first responders and our staff for taking prompt action, leading to a positive outcome today, and to the rest of the park guests who swiftly followed directions to vacate the park to make way for the emergency responders to attend to the situation, it said.

Oaks Park first opened in 1905. Its website says it offers a uniquely Portland blend of modern thrills and turn-of-the-century charm on a midway that has delighted generations of Northwesterners.

I haven't seen Pluto yet, but if you're familiar with Monster (great thriller), it's by the same creator.

oh yea, Dark on Netflix is also good, IMO.

if you haven't checked it out yet, I recommend the Interview with the Vampire TV series on AMC.

it takes a bunch of liberties from the source material, but Anne Rice, when she was alive, was involved with it, and her son is too (they're executive producers).

anyway, I think it's really good, and it's on its second season, with about two or three episodes left.

this is a guilty pleasure, but it's also popular - Power. the main series ended years ago, but it has a few spinoffs, which I also like.

also, even though the animation isn't on point, one of my favorite webtoons has been adapted to anime (10 episodes are out right now) - Viral Hit/ Kenka Dokugaku.

it's about a poor, bullied kid, who joins YouTube, and his gimmick is fighting bullies. it's an action-comedy.

lastly, another anime - The Fable.

it's about a top assassin and his partner, whose boss wants them to lay low for a while without killing.

it's a comedy, too. I only read the manga, but I hear the anime series is worth checking out.

I loved my dad, but he died back in 2010, so I don't have any plans for tomorrow.

dude probably considers himself an OG aryan, the ones who came from India thousands of years ago

but yea, I can't unhear Cartman

all I did was ask what exactly they are.

no, you asked why they had "so much" influence on gaming, and how they "pressure" developers into making "drastic changes".

and people answered you.

Human missions to Mars could be at risk after new research revealed that long-duration space travel can impact the structure of astronauts kidneys.

Samples from more than 40 space missions involving humans and mice revealed that kidneys are remodelled by the conditions in space, with certain parts showing signs of shrinkage after less than a month in space.

The findings could jeopardise plans by SpaceX and Nasa to send crewed missions to Mars in the coming decades, with SpaceX boss Elon Musk recently claiming that it could be possible within the next 10 to 20 years.

Scientists at University College London (UCL), who carried out the study, said that microgravity and galactic radiation from space flight caused serious health risks to emerge the longer a person is exposed to it.

Future missions to Mars were not ruled out, though the scientists said that measures to protect the kidneys would need to be developed to avoid serious harm to astronauts. Methods of recovery could also be introduced onboard spacecraft, such as dialysis machines.

We know what has happened to astronauts on the relatively short space missions conducted so far, in terms of an increase in health issues such as kidney stones, said Dr Keith Siew, first author of the study from the London Tubular Centre, based at the UCL Department of Renal Medicine.

What we dont know is why these issues occur, nor what is going to happen to astronauts on longer flights such as the proposed mission to Mars. If we dont develop new ways to protect the kidneys, Id say that while an astronaut could make it to Mars they might need dialysis on the way back.

We know that the kidneys are late to show signs of radiation damage; by the time this becomes apparent its probably too late to prevent failure, which would be catastrophic for the missions chances of success.

You cant protect them from galactic radiation using shielding, but as we learn more about renal biology it may be possible to develop technological or pharmaceutical measures to facilitate extended space travel.

The research was detailed in a paper published in the journal Nature Communications.

they're not.

iirc, due to their reputation, devs hire them to help write their minority characters, so they don't potentially portray them in a poor/stereotypical manner.

is there low fat/zero fat ice cream?

I'm only asking because I never checked.
