  • Omg, did you just invent MicroAI's? I love it. Huge potential.

  • I guess I'm not sure how others build with micro services, but using AWS SAM is stupid simple, and the only maintenance we've ever had to do is update a Node version. 🤷

  • This is really easy to test in fairly small social groups. The next time you're in a group ordering pizza, say you want cheese, because you don't eat meat. Now watch everyone else order, or change their order to, double meat supreme with bacon. It's almost like they can't help themselves. It's hilarious how easy you can change other people's behavior.

  • Loophole: any time insurance agents show up to assess the situation, shot them.

  • This was The Emoji Movie for my kids. I refused to watch it because of obvious reasons, but they insisted and totally liked it. I finally gave it a watch and... It was totally fine. Pleasant at times, even.

  • We LOVED this film, and even convinced our local cinema to have a sing along one night.

    The first time we watched it we had to leave the cinema early due to a tornado warning. But we were so pleasantly surprised by what we saw (expected trash after those awful trailers) that we went again. And then again.

  • I read this to my kids a few years ago, and while super weird, it's also super racist, in the "Chinese say ching chong, haha" kind of way, and it does it with just about any race, culture, and stereotype you can think of (since they take over a space station and it becomes an international incident).

  • Closeup picture of one of our hens. They have such cool patterns and colors.

  • Back in the day I was always impressed with Tekken's graphics, but it never felt as good as Virtua Fighter. I think VF made even better use of 3d space, and also added interesting environment interactions. So thats where all my quarters went.

  • I mean, that's what you get for buying the cheaper phone! Except I got the 7 Pro, and it feels like it was abandoned as soon as the 8 was announced. As soon as I read that I wasn't getting functionality that was clearly cloud functionality, I realized that Google stopped giving 2 shits about existing users that don't immediately upgrade to the latest phone. Also it sucked at making phone calls, so that was the last Pixel phone for me.

  • Galaxy S24 Ultra. I got really pissed off at the Pixel 7 Pro and bought this on a (very costly) whim. But this is the first phone I really like since the Note 9. The screen is gorgeous. The software is better than stock android on the Pixel. And it can actually make phone calls!

  • The Note 9 was the perfect phone. Hold onto it for as long as it will run! I got a Pixel 7 Pro after mine died. It was a real downgrade. Got the s24 Ultra this year, and it's actually quite nice. Probably the closest thing to the Note 9 these days.

  • Stupid question, but why not just target more immigration? It's not like there aren't enough people in the world. Having babies first taxes the economy, then eventually helps it. Letting immigrants in now helps now. And they'll probably have babies.

  • Marvel's Midnight Suns has similar top notch graphics, and somewhat similar mechanics, but with deck building added. I don't remember if there's a class system.

    If you like the d&d mechanics, check out Solasta, which I like a million times better than BG3. The graphics aren't as good, but it's also not as gore/horror focused.

  • Huh, I can't think of a single time I've accidentally bitten a fork or spoon. I can't even think of a way that it would happen. Now I'm curious if this happens to others?

  • Against the Storm. Picked it up way back in early access and kind of thought it sucked. Saw some people talk about it recently and decided to give it another go, and it doesn't suck anymore! I suck at it, having lost every round, but I keep going back in, so I guess I like it now.
