Have you ever developed a game?

I can’t look at that without thinking of those animations I saw on Newgrounds in my teens. Also that funny sound ‘Wurk wurk!’

@SleepySteve
I never cared much about polls conducted three years ahead of the actual election: so early on, they often end up hardly mattering in regard of the actual results (for one, there’s no guarantee that either Edouard Philippe or Gabriel Attal will be picked as Macron’s successor; it could just as well be Bruno Le Maire, or even Gérald Darmanin — aka Sarkozy 2.0).

More relevant would be the polling about the upcoming european election.

With an expected score that’s twice as high as Renaissance’s (Macron’s party, which they beat by a single point in the previous election, back in 2019 — 23.2% to 22.2%), the rise of the far-right — which is part of a broader movement in Europe — is more apparent (because the ignorant masses — even the half that cares enough to move their asses up to the ballot box — are just as short-sighted as ever).

Another point of interest is the socialist list (whose party had sunk into irrelevance in the wake of Macron’s re-election) making a surprising comeback from their pitiful 6.2% in 2019 and having some fair odds of taking the second place away from the macronists, while the right (les Républicains) is stagnant, same as the far-left (since the NUPES couldn’t agree on a common list, la France Insoumise is looking at a marginal improvement from their 2019 score at best), and the ecologists are about to eat the second biggest loss (when they had previously managed to take the third place with 13.5% of the vote).

Say sowwy now!!!

@CloudMistDragon
Okay, you caught me.

Now that you mention it, I don’t think I was even discussing the show on the forums until season 6 or 7, so I actually have no idea what the consensus was on the seasons between.

Because people will bitch and moan about it which will give me more stuff to watch on YouTube in the long run.

Unless it’s certain people in dire straits, they’re the worst.

@WaynePonePone
You mean people who arrive after closing time? Yeah, those people are annoying.

@Wiimeiser
It’s just bad timing. Come on man.

Yeah they aren’t Nintendo, they don’t hate their fans.

Is Epic still a haven for NFT shovelware?

@Icicle Niceicle 1517
oof

Does anyone here watch the Indycar racing series? I’ve heard recently that one team had a win from a few weeks ago get disqualified after it was discovered they had somehow manipulated something that gave them an illegal advantage on starts and restarts. I’m not exactly familiar with how things work there, but it sounds quite serious.

@Dashie41 YT
I haven’t heard it quite yet, but I don’t think I’ll be impressed either.

This is the best TV edit hands down.

@northern haste
Damn, they didn’t even try to get clever with it. They just straight up muted out entire lines.

Where’s the dumb as fuck replacement line? Where’s the sound-alike who not only sounds nothing like the original actor, but also has a wildly different mic quality? I DEMAND QUALITY!

The fascist National Rally party in France is leading in almost every presidential run-off scenario.

Truly a testament to how much of a catastrophe the Macron presidency has been. And why you shouldn’t take his talk of “defending European civilization” seriously…unless he’s truly suicidal.

@Zincy
Pacific Ring of Fire baybeeeh! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Sounds and looks more metal than Tornado Alley tbh.

We got earthquakes, volcanos, tsunamis, droughts, typhoons, floods, wars, drugs, political dynasties, etc. 🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶

Freedom Planet 1 is one of those games where it’s great overall, but it suffers from one or two major issues that makes it hard to want to go back and play it. You’ll enjoy a playthrough as Lilac or Carol (not Milla though; you’d only play as her if you were a fucking masochist), but not really have the urge to experience the other story immediately.

In contrast, I’m about to start my 4th consecutive run on FP2 (this time with Neera), and I haven’t felt the urge to stop yet.
