Good to know there are limits. ...Now watch Sony make a counter-offer.

I thought it was already pushing it to make the initial Switch release a sequel in the first place, for a number of reasons: Anyone who was suckered into buying Nintendo's worst console ever and got Splatoon for it was now stuck buying a new game and a new console if they wanted to keep playing...

So, is this Nintendo just pulling a Call of Duty and rereleasing the exact same game under a new name to get people to buy it again? I realize it's been five years since the last one, but Nintendo usually doesn't pull this until a new console is out. Besides, people went apeshit over Blizzard's...

What's on the list?

Marble foxes are, if I'm not mistaken, one of the results of the fox domestication program that started in Russia in the '70s. Which is something worth reading about in its own right, both because domesticating more cute critters is something I can get behind in general and because it's...

I remember reading about this ages ago when it was stuck in development hell... now I'm wondering if "development hell" was code for "they couldn't get the rights to use the name because of that Matt Groening show, but then they bought the company behind that so they were finally able to go...

Relevant quote: It kinda sounds like Trump refuses to accept legal counsel from anyone who won't agree to do actual crimes on his behalf. Thaaaaat explains why nobody wants to represent him anymore.

I don't think I've seen Charles II either. The first one was pretty unforgettable, though, if only for what happens at the end (no spoilers for anyone who hasn't seen it yet).

Me every time I try to do anything from the command line.

I'm not sure it's all that unrelated, actually. Dude writes like the Time Cube guy. Why can't they all be this easy to pick out?

A pox on her for a lot of things. Remember that she's the one who first gave Jenny McCarthy a platform for her "vaccines cause autism" conspiracy theory.

History buffs, I must ask: Is this the shortest length of time they've gone between getting a new prime minister and getting a new monarch?

And also the book was poorly written to begin with. Which is how they've been able to do that and get away with it.

Most of Europe seems to be doing a fine job of avoiding most of the problems that capitalism is causing in the US. Every institution, if left unchecked, will expand to fill every unoccupied space and gradually erode everything else that's too weak to defend itself. Whether it's the church, the...

This is past the point where a swift trial, conviction, and execution is prudent. This is the kind of scenario where you'd want to lock him up and interrogate him for years about what other dark secrets he might be keeping. I only regret that we've discovered that torture is ineffective at...

The Constitution guarantees a right to a speedy trial. Shame we can't find a judge who'll interpret that as saying it should be guaranteed even when the defendant is the one trying to prevent it.

Well, maybe the Forward Party will gain enough traction to lure the ship-jumpers in so they won't do that.

So, now that I've seen the whole game... anyone else feel like it was weirdly similar to WALL-E? Starts out as an unconventional story, told without dialog, about a small creature alone in an abandoned world, sticks with that premise just long enough that you start to feel like it could actually...

Does this future also contain people capable of remembering who she is by then? Because the shift back to sanity isn't going to be fast.

I dunno, "preview demos" like the kind you'd see at conventions being made available to the general public seems to have become a lot more common since COVID killed the convention scene. But that's mostly for indie games. Unsurprising, since indie games are more desperate for attention they...
