I loved the original, and enjoyed this one. It was a respectable sequel, especially given how most sequels are hot garbage. Worth a watch if you enjoyed the original movie. Not necessarily theater worthy, but it was pretty great to hear the original Danny Elfman theme playing in the theater during the intro.

$700?!? Are you freaking kidding? I'll stick with my PC, thanks.

Thank fucking God. Someone with sense finally showing up in Jeff city.

Fingers double crossed for Missourians this fall.

Or, perhaps a mashup of both???

I don't understand the folding phone thing. It feels like tech now is all about creating ridiculous features and tech companies trying to convince us that we want them while ignoring things that would actually be worthwhile like repairable phones, headphones jacks and minimal bloatware.

" optimize staffing levels to be more comparable with industry leaders”

I will never understand why investor types like to play follow the leader rather than giving strategic or financial reasons for business decisions. Who gives a shit if every other studio is laying people off? If the staffing is right for your company then following other industry leaders will only make things worse and cement you in a place behind those leaders.

I mean there was that story about RFK eating dog. I think he's a citizen though, as much as I'd love for him to go away.

(NOTE- the story was found to be false.)

A professor I was taking a management class with gave me a fun burn on my thesis. I asked for his input on a specific point and he called it "intellectual masterbation" and proceeded to talk for 15 min or so about ideas he thought i should have studied instead (I was already preparing for my thesis defense so couldn't change topics). Never got an answer on the actual question I'd raised.

Last year's 'upgrade' was a strip of titanium around the case. They seem to be running out of ideas. Definitely not worth the insane price tag.

The FTC has been CRUSHING IT under the current leaders by actually enforcing existing rules. I hope Kamala tells those donors to pound sand.

If they wanted to make this movie a success they should have had ONE PERSON from the writing, directing and (most importantly) casting team sit down and play the games.

Finally some good news on a studio closure. So glad for the team at Tango they found someone to take them on.

If you haven't watched the olympic break dancing competition, do yourself a favor and check it out. The woman competing for Australia might be the best thing I've seen so far.

So, anybody know a good launcher to use once Nova goes offline?

Left the original title from the article for consistency, but article suggests that they may not be shutting down and are instead restructuring.

36 employees were laid off.

Curious about y'alls opinions on this. I like the idea of getting new people to experience an older game by aligning it to modern graphics and accessibility standards. But capitalizing on nostalgia with quick updates to that make it look modern rather than making new games seems like just more of studios trying to squeeze money out of us.

Thought you all might find this interesting. I like this artist, but can imagine seeing oneself portrayed this way could be jarring.

So excited to consolidate my mess of drives and get a big boost to my storage.

It sounds like things are going well for this guy and that is great and all, but how much would we honestly expect to hear if it wasn't going well?

This story is circulating all the media outlets and feels more like PR than a legit example of how this procedure is actually going to work for most people.
