It’s a very recent one but my answer right now has to be Arcane, season 2, episode 7. It’s a brilliant show from start to finish but this episode in particular is such a gut punch it still hurts to think about.

The title of the song Why Don’t You by Gramophonedzie. I heard the song playing on radio a long time ago, probably probably around the time it came out in 2010. I didn’t know the lyrics nor the artist and eventually forgot about the song. Then, many years later, I heard people saying good things about a certain Fallout: New Vegas and decided to play it to see what the big deal was. Well, the game has radio stations you can tune in and to my surprise the original song by Peggy Lee which Gramophonedzie remixed is in there. I heard it and instantly thought “…wait, could it be that song?” Well, it was, and I have to thank F:NV for that cause I don’t think I’d ever have found that song otherwise.

As far as I’m aware, the big “problem” with Mastodon (and the Fediverse as a whole) is that you have to choose an instance to join. It’s an aditional step that mainstream social media does not have and it’s already enough to push regular people away. It’s kinda like trying to convince a Windows user to jump ship to Linux, by the time you begin explaining what a distro is you’ve already lost them.

My friend down the street had an LX back in '83. It was an amazing device but sadly way too ahead of its time.

Do I need a foldable phone? No. Do I like the idea of owning a phone that is actually small enough to be used with one hand and can fit anywhere? Yes. Besides, closing it to end a call is very cool.

Why not? It’s not like Huawei can just use Android so I doubt they’ll pull the plug on this system anytime soon.

It’s about time we got a major third player in the mobile OS space. Godspeed to Huawei, may they succeed where Microsoft failed.

Maybe they just want to feel something. Anger, I assume.

Yeah, I doubt most people will go this route. VPNs cost money, Twitter alternatives are free.

That’s the arcade one. The other one is probably season 4, episode 8, “The Vat of Acid Episode”. Morty gets a real-life saving device that allows him to go back to any previous moment in time where he has defined a save. He then falls in love with a girl and lives a long time happily with her, and forgets about the saving device. Eventually, he accidentally goes back to the save point he had made and realized he has lost the relationship with the girl and is again a complete stranger to her. That one hits hard.

Chuck has a great shot at becoming the messiah of a new religion then cause the holy book of Norrisism has already been written, it’s called Chuck Norris Facts.

It’s a shame that’s not the default because while do find EVs interesting there’s no way I’m buying a car that may stop working after a failed software update. Did early EV manufacturers feel the need to put as many bleeding edge features as possible in their vehicles to make them more alluring? Cause I can’t imagine another reason to turn a car into a driveable smartphone.

It’s in the fracking ship!!

I think glass metal and concrete blobs are cool.

Can confirm, I still remember how impressed I was to see MGS:V running smoothly on my old dual-core Intel CPU with integrated graphics. It could never handle Sleeping Dogs or Deus Ex: Human Revolution yet this massive and beautiful open-world sandbox ran on it like a champ.

Shhh, let’s just pretend the average IQ over there dropped when we left.

Holy hell

Ooh boy, do I have some good news for you!
