    Ooh, I debated putting Space Odyssey on my list. Absolute masterpiece of a film, if you're in the right mood to watch it.

  • What if Nintendo and Nvidia fused together?

    The switch 2 would be $3000 with $120 games. Both groups would praise the move.

    And then you turn the corner and see 3 Coke vending machines in a row.

  • Well, this is some pretty low-hanging fruit, so why not? It's impossible for me to choose just one, so I tried to narrow it down to 5 from (fairly) different genres. My favorites today are: - Scott Pilgrim vs the World - Inglorious Basterds - The End of Evangelion - Ghost in the Shell - The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly I'm a sucker for cyberpunk, existential crises, slow pans and quick dialog. Do I have shit taste (probably)? What are all your favorites?

  • What's a controversial take that you have that most people would disagree with?
  • sandworm_7s_hatbox sandworm_7s_hatbox 1y ago 100%

    The old captains of industry argument. Certainly a controversial one lol.

    I see the merit in this argument to be honest, it is a very efficient system. But I think the inevitable wealth inequality is too big a tradeoff. You also have to worry about those people becoming malicious or acting like dinguses.

    What's the way forward for the internet? And will it require us to go backwards?

    Lately I've found myself going back to narrower-focus forum sites more. From my perspective, the problem with these big sites is that they're owned by people who treat them like an investment. Odds are they've never laid eyes on a piece of code or read user feedback. But they're the one's calling the shots, with the intention of making money. So you have these sites running tests and making changes to maximize profits in the short-term. But when the other shoe drops, it's the workers getting the axe to protect 0.01% of some investor's fortune. The way these internet companies grow is basically like how Standard Oil formed a monopoly, then turned around screwed everyone over.

    Anyway, rant over. That's an oversimplification and I'm not an economics person. As for the for-profit internet, I like the idea of user-owned or employee-owned businesses. They have a vested interest in making the site actually good long term. I don't mind giving my money to people who actually work. None of this VC or equity firm bs.

    Federated stuff is cool. I hope it catches on. I'm not holding my breath.

    I love Morrowind to bits, but Skyrim never gets old with the huge amount of mods it has. But then I spend more time modding than playing...

    And every few months I'll boot up EU4 and try some new ludicrous run I thought up.
