SILO TV Series discussion + Book series worth reading?
  • I have not watched the show, but I have read the books. Kind of simple, young adult. It doesn't ask much of you, and didn't really leave a lasting impression. Great premise though. I also read Sand by Hugh Howey, and can't for the life of me remember any of it, whereas a lot of people seem to really love it, so maybe I am just the odd man out here.

  • Xbox's 'Biggest Content Drop In History' Sees Over 1400 Retro Games Arrive Next Week
  • The lifetime pass isn't bad, but I don't really have any nostalgia for the platforms that make up the bulk of Antstream's catalog, like the ZX Spectrum, Commodore 64, and Amiga.

  • Name a single feature you’d like to see in a Switch 2
  • Wireless transmission latency is good enough for pc players connecting to oculus headsets. Besides, if this is just a wishlist, I would hope that nintendo keeps traditional docking as well if you are playing a latency critical game or want to use a pro controller instead of the console itself as the controller.

  • Name a single feature you’d like to see in a Switch 2
  • I loved my wii u and was disappointed when the tablet screen didn't get used. If it was more successful (as the switch has been and hopefully how the switch 2 will be) then it probably would have been better utilized.

  • Name a single feature you’d like to see in a Switch 2
  • Wireless Dock for dual screen gaming. Make it easier to port those ds, 3ds, and wii u games. I love having inventory and maps more readily accessible.

  • Where do you think Nintendo will take Zelda from here?
  • It was the producer Eiji Aonuma who said that Breath of the Wild was the new template going forward. https://www.eurogamer.net/open-world-zelda-is-a-format-for-the-future-of-the-series-says-producer-eiji-aonuma

  • Twitter isn't showing tweets unless you're logged in
  • I am not logging back into Twitter. They already lost my trust.

  • Random YouTube comment on the whole Reddit situation that perfectly sums up my thoughts
  • I think they view it as ripping off the bandaid now before their IPO. They probably figured they would lose some single digit % of users that would recover over time, and now they will have full control over the experience with no 3rd party apps, which they will want in order to squeeze more money over time.

  • Thanks for announcing my special interests to the world, steam.
  • Just own it. Everyone is freaky about something. Let your freak flag fly.

  • Hammerwatch II - Overview Gameplay Trailer | PC Release Date Announce Video
  • My friends and I played and enjoyed Heroes of Hammerwatch, so I would say odds are good that we will pick this up at some point.

  • Nintendo Leaker Teases Big GameCube Games for the Switch
  • Thousand year door is so good. It would be great for more people to be able to play it easily.

  • Fallout New Vegas is currently on sale on Steam at 75% off, $2.49 (USD)
  • GOG has the ultimate version for the same price as the ultimate version on steam ($6.59) if you want it DRM free.

  • Twitter to focus on video, commerce in business revamp
  • Maybe they should focus on what their user base wants instead trying to be TikTok or whatever is hot this week.

  • The Story of the First Video Game Cartridge | Gaming Historian
  • I actually have a Fairchild Channel F in box sitting in a closet. My brother found it at a thrift store and picked it up for me since he knows I like weird retro videogame stuff. I have yet to see if it actually works though.

  • Dungeons and Drag Queens Debuts a Fabulous, Fearsome Foursome
  • Brennan is incredible, and that is an entertaining cast. Going to have to watch this with my wife. Kind of surprised Heidi N Closet isn't joining up. I know she did a one shot with critical role.

  • YouTube tests blocking videos unless you disable ad blockers
  • I pay for a youtube premium family plan. Best money I spend monthly. I want to support the youtube creators that I watch, I don't have to see ads (I block them anyway), and I get a music service included.

  • Comcast complains to FCC that listing all of its monthly fees is too hard
  • They will just have to create a fee to "cover the costs" of having to tell you what they are going to charge you.

  • Texas Mandates Panic Buttons In All Classrooms In Response To Mass Shootings
  • When you don't want to actually solve a problem, but you want to look like you care.

  • Downvote
  • And thats the reason why I chose another instance. I want to be able to downvote when people post terrible things. Who knows how long it will take for moderates to remove something, or if they will at all.

  • Slashdot -> Fark -> Digg -> Reddit -> Lemmy
  • Pretty similar for me, but I never did Fark. Funnily enough after digg was sold and relaunched I started using the new digg pretty regularly. It isn't old digg, but it does find and aggregate decent news and entertainment links.

  • The flowers are blooming in Coconino National Forest

    Arizona isn't just cactus. There were all sorts of flowers in bloom this weekend in Coconino National Forest.

    www.azcentral.com Another non-soon? Drier, hotter than normal conditions predicted for Arizona's monsoon

    The National Weather Service predicts that most of Arizona is going to have below normal precipitation during the 2023 monsoon.

    Another non-soon? Drier, hotter than normal conditions predicted for Arizona's monsoon

    A wet monsoon would be good to keep the whole state from catching on fire after a wet winter encouraged growth. That may not be in the cards though

    Quest Master - The Zelda Maker that Nintendo Won't Make

    Quest Master is a new game by Skydevilpalm and Julian Creutz looks like a Zelda Maker where you can design your own dungeons and then share them. Hopefully their sharing ability is a little more robust than what Nintendo did with Mario Maker. No release date yet, but apparently a demo is coming soon.

    www.reuters.com Italy bets on quietest of places to host world-leading telescope

    Italy is proposing a disused mineral mine in a remote corner of Sardinia to house one of the world's most advanced telescopes, hoping that the uncommon stillness of the spot will clinch European Union approval and funds.

    Italy bets on quietest of places to host world-leading telescope

    Italy is suggesting a location for the EU Einstein Telescope which will observe gravitational waves. The competing location right now is in Belgium. The arms are planned to be 10km, longer than LIGO's 4km arms.
