3D movies, I remember everyone being so excited for shit like Avatar because it was a 3D movie without the dumb red and blue lenses. Then it turned out to just give you vertigo.
Or even 4K TV. Like it looks marginally better if your face is jammed into the screen, but all it really does is suck up way more bandwidth and cost $400 more.
Bernie :deeper-sadness:
I don’t know whats worse, brnie posting or vush posting, both just make me incredibly sad.
V*ush posting is worse. Bernie’s still a middling succdem, but at least his campaigns got a lot of people into socialism.
Its not because bernie is bad, its because any reminder of his campaign makes me depressed.
Latter for me, because at least Bernie is somewhat meaningful to me, at least as a waystation in the development of my political beliefs. The latter’s just a tedious sex pest who will most likely only ever have minor online influence.
Also protip, to make sure asterisks appear as asterisks when you want the character, write them as “\*”.
Spore. I remember watching the videos about procedural generation and Will Wright talking about how you could do all this crazy stuff in the game.
Then it came out and I played it and it was just empty. A fun character creator, and almost zero depth to the gameplay.
Pretty sure that was the last videogame I ever bought 🏴☠️
