Does this mean David Zaslav won’t be ruining things any more?

Cool idea, but it’s fucking ugly. The writer of that article is a bit of a wanker, too.

Having health insurance tied to employment is inherently screwing people, so probably not.

The physics and force feedback is so good in that game right now. It’s the only driving sim I actually feel fear in. Especially in VR.

Anyone that follows a TikTok trend deserves everything that befalls them.

First good thing Russia’s done in a while, even if it’s for a dumb reason.

That seems optimistic, but I’ll take it.

I play beam.ng and try not to crash.

The robber barons are doing great though. That’s the only part of the ‘economy’ he cares about.

Eric and The Half Bees.

You only have to look at current Google Maps satellite imagery to feel sympathy for Palestinians. Go fuck yourself, Hillary.

It’s like they have to make the worst possible decision for every single thing.

Will it, though?

I remember seeing a guy busking at a local farmer’s market with a baritone recorder and it was one of the most haunting and beautiful sounds I’ve ever heard. Any instrument can sound good in skilled hands.

Dropping an asteroid on the planet was a bit rude, too.

The only games I really care about graphical fidelity are racing simulators, and that’s because I’m in VR in a simrig and looking to be as immersed as possible. Even then, frame rate is more important that just about everything else.

Well there’s a big question, but I’ll try to be brief. I’ve got a shelf full of DVDs and a folder on my PC with many gigabytes worth.

Billy Connolly is an all-time favourite from my early years of random. Seen him 3 times. Stewart Lee, Maria Bamford (saw her live last year), Sarah Millican, Doug Stanhope, Bill Bailey*, Dylan Moran, The Umbilical Brothers*, Lano and Woodley* are all great. (* Also seen live)

Some lesser known more recent comics I’ve discovered from the stand-up comedy subreddit are Chris Higgins, Django Gold, and Mike Baldwin. They’re all pretty unique and great.

This list could be ten times longer.

800 Pound Gorilla and Dry Bar Comedy are a couple of good YouTube channels for discovering new comics.

For long weird funny stories, I recommend Shayne Smith. He just put up a full show on the Dry Bar Comedy YouTube channel.

Love it. It’s one of my favourite forms of entertainment and pretty much the only thing I’ll go see live these days. Been a fan since the early eighties.

The soundtrack for ‘The Catherine Wheel’ that Byrne did around the same time is pretty out there as well. ‘The Red House’ in particular blows me away with what he did with 1981 technology.
