"Ghostbusters: Afterlife" what a bad movie. For the most part it's "fine". Very slow pacing but "fine". The last act was the kick into the groin.

I have the keys to the house. If it weren't for the heat, I'd be moving my stuff to the house. 31°C and no clouds. Unbearable.

Does anybody else think that saying "RIP" for Jimmy Buffet is kind of . . . weird? Like, rest and paradise were his job, his whole persona. What changes??

The last season of Disenchantment is quite a mess in how the story was told.
about 9 months ago from web-
@adiwan I think the whole show would have gone a lot better if the first 4 seasons tried to develop the overarching plot during the whole season instead of just the first and last 2 episodes. This latest one was, like, "all plot, all the time!" and it felt so slapped together. Not awful, but I'm glad they didn't try to keep it alive for 40 years, and I'm not hopeful that Comedy Central will pick it up for a revival in 2030.

@scribus I think the creators had a lot of internal conflict on how to create an epic and make the episodes episodic, like Futurama and Simpsons. I fully agree with you. I really liked the characters, some more, some less, but none were truly terrible (even Elfo to some degree). It's just that the plot made all of them brainless and stupid stretching all of the characters to an unrecognizable form. Fast-forwarding a lot of the plot didn't help. In this season, multiple times, there was no reason to stop a chase but it happened despite no reason at all.

Ah F***!!!! Got a bill from the government for the tax for buying land. 11k€ down the drain. I knew I had to pay it before I got into thinking about buying a house. It still stings nonetheless. That's about 2800 comic issues!

In a week I'll own a house! I'd be happier if the city wouldn't penny-pinch me. I had to pay a bill for something that the city should pay themselves: an investigation if the city has an interest in buying the house (first refusal right).

@adiwan Wow that is a dumb demand, but congratulations on the homeownership!
-
@scribus Thanks. The bill was 65€ for that. I will certainly suffer for pleasure of owning a home, especially since there was nothing done for over 40 years and has still wallpaper from the late 70s. What has to be done: New switch box (solar power ready), new electric cables, new windows, roof isolation, the wilderness of a garden needs to be tamed. Also when I'm at it I'll lay down network cables everywhere, at least CAT7 and glass fiber.

Done with Yakuza 4, now on Yakuza 5. Big thing I’m noticing about 5 is that it’s slightly more impressive both technically and as a game than Yakuza Kiwami, which released four years later on a next gen console, which is a bit confusing to me but whatever
about 9 months ago from web-
@zeldatra I also think 5 is the most varied in style and tone and side-stuff. I really enjoyed the taxi missions and wished there were more of them.

I'm not really a big karaoke fan in the Yakuza games but I somewhat miss it in Judgment.

That’s Yakuza 3 out of the way, would’ve finished it sooner but due to the way combat works it takes roughly two hours to do one random encounter of beginner level thugs

@zeldatra And no more "Aniki!" being shouted constantly.
-
@adiwan my completion rating is pitifully low because I couldn’t stand the dated gameplay any longer lmao. I’m enjoying Yakuza 4 much much more.
-
@zeldatra I know that feeling. It felt like a breeze starting 4, as if someone released the hand brake.

I’m a few years out from dating being permanently weird, because pretty soon everyone in my pool is either gonna have kids (I AM BAD WITH KIDS) or be enough years younger than me that I, personally, would feel weird dating them even if other people probably don’t really care that much.

@zeldatra Just wait a while longer, then the kids'll be grown and off to college or whatever

Each successive Trump indictment is funnier than the last because every time he’s practically begged people to riot on his behalf at the various courthouses where his arrests occur and like five people show up every time.

In yesterday's D&D session I used my lizard familiar, placed it on my druid character's head, activated the feature to look through the familiar's eyes, and thusly gained 30ft darkvision. A poor man's Goggles of Night.

I think this hotel is not for people like me, it’s next to a bunch of corporate headquarters and data centers, the lobby is a trendy bar where a bunch of tech guys are drinking top shelf liquor, and the TV knows my name.

@zeldatra Sometimes you need to go where television knows your name

ChatGPT seems to believe that Sora from Kingdom Hearts would be perfectly willing to ally with Tony Soprano but would draw the line at Walter White and I’m uncomfortable with the knowledge that, to an AI, the line between friend and foe lies somewhere between “murderous mob boss” and “murderous drug lord” and not well before both points.

@zeldatra Seems to be perfectly in line with any other fan fiction writer.

But I also think that "The Devil's Hands are Idle Playthings" was the best ending hands-down no-contest and anyone who thinks otherwise has negative a million concept of storytelling. Yup. :p

New Futurama’s pretty funny. Billy West‘s voice ain’t what it used to be though. Fry sounds like he’s been in the future for 23 years or something.
