I keep hearing really strong things about the game.

People seem to feel like reviewers were too harsh on the game.

Well the earth is flat and the moon is a hologram sooooooo!

speaking of. This is a thing that grinds my gears a lot lately, but I also like the laugh it gives me at the absurdity of some people. Well more idiocy of people, but trying to be nice. lol

The internet really needs a rework. Only 1% of people may think something but if they all group up online, they can be a commanding voice that others take as truth. Even legit places like pbs get swayed by them (a video of theirs prompted my first post).

We'll have dozens of people living on the Moon yet flatearthers and nasa/spacex deniers will be even louder.

We are getting closer and closer to returning humans to the Moon. I have no idea why more and more people are in denial of this.

Like ~5 years ago everyone just accepted the news but now that we have real rockets flying and hardware getting built, people act like it's all vaporware.

Horizon Forbidden West has more details, but TLOU2 has better lighting imo.

Sometimes I forget how good TLOU Part II looks

Spoiler for Hidden:

I swear it still looks better than 99% of games on PS5.

Boston Dynamicsâ Robert Playter on the New Atlas - IEEE Spectrum

No testing in factories until next year. A few robot companies will sleep better knowing that. Also confirms that the head was partially inspired by Pixar's logo.

The hardware just sounds incredible. Stronger than a peak athlete. It's a true terminator which most companies like Tesla wanted to avoid. Will be interesting to see if that comes with battery and price tradeoffs or if other companies were silly for making weak bots.

Actually I guess Interstellar would fit for me. I like a lot about it and it has some great scenes, but I just don't love it.

Does anyone have any movies that they feel like they should like more?

There's a movie called "I want to eat your pancreas". (It's about a girl who has some kind of pancreatic disease.)

The movie quality wise reminds me so much of my favorite anime movies, and I don't feel like the movie fails at anything.

And yet, I don't love it as much as Your Name or A Silent Voice, and I really feel like I should.
