@j1o1h1n eh, it was decent

@OfficialGwynne @Robert_Robbins holy crap that triggered a memory https://t.co/aebA0X284R

@twistmeyer what? no!

@y_molodtsov the remake? no, I can't agree with that.. https://t.co/sEdsRA7m4d

@wtsaila holy cow, didn't even know this was a thing. textbook example.

@irae I dunno, movies don't always age well.. society changes.. language changes.. some old movies are very very slowly paced and have stilted dialogue. In many cases, people really don't talk (or act?) like that any more.

@damienkatz again: didn't even know *it existed*. the hallmark of bad remakes. no one remembers them, which is as it should be..?

@tqbf yeah this is clearly a moderator with a grudge and/or skin in the game on the argument

@Stammy get aftermarket rollers! lots of good upgrade options

@asmeurer @han0z oh my god if you like dark color schemes you will be madly in love with your new display (I actually *don't*, but a lot of people do..)

Good news, @waxpancake! https://t.co/Ks7UACRZ4r

@preshing Right?! It’s like a decent comedy sketch stretched out to movie length

As the kids say, “No copyright intended” https://t.co/AzWBzzEGj9 https://t.co/BgtFk9KWCI

@omissis @relton65 @johnmcelhone8 👏

and now in Fortnite! https://t.co/euxfxFdT4W https://t.co/NClRFWJdX4

@han0z My 55" OLED primary is a thing of great beauty, though a bit too large. I have the slightly smaller one as well and I need to get that in the mix. It's tough to find small OLEDs, but the situation is sloooowly improving.

@Supermathie except, https://t.co/LZvrY6q5FN

@estephan500 @rev_null see?! The hallmark of each and every one: we forget they existed!

@ZLNY oh God I had totally forgotten about that, but textbook example! It's so unnecessary you don't remember it!

@Roach_B_me fair point on prequel vs remake, I'd disagree about the new Total Recall being good, though

@pekkagaiser @shakethemonkey yeah MC was a decent remake IMO

@estephan500 it's solid, we tend to look for light, funny nighttime fare to watch before going to bed, and this one fit the bill

@textfiles Fortnite basically SINGLE FUCKING HANDED made every game crossplay across nintendo,ps4,xbox,pc and for that I will be eternally grateful to @TimSweeneyEpic -- you are doing the lord's work. Oh and I also won the bet you are referring to

@KwekuOA the very hallmark of a bad remake: nobody remembers it.

@estephan500 brilliant and perfect examples. The Wonka remake was a punchline in season 2 of Woke, and a really good one too (search for 'depp' on the page) https://t.co/JfcTetbaxB

I still kinda want this but it's $5k - $10k on eBay and my desire for novelty items isn't quite that strong.. yet. https://t.co/k6uQtwF9Dd

I had to have this chair reupholstered in 2022 and all they could provide was boring grey and black. Bah. So, chair itself still doing great, maybe plan for reupholstering every ~8 years? That's why chairs are a great career investment: https://t.co/AHvCbnetnQ

@relton65 @johnmcelhone8 (sorry, both you and the OP and many replies all got this wrong and it's triggering my OCD so hard)

@relton65 @johnmcelhone8 arrrrgghhhhh it's spelled hangar

@digitalsurgeon I dunno, read reviews, there are quite a few very very good AAA games. Plague Tale: Requiem is on sale right now on the Epic store and it's quite good.

@vashpan yeah completely free to play is a slightly different (and very interesting) topic of its own

For example, why did I buy this for full price when it came out? I've played it all of 2 hours with my kids.. I need to get back to the game eventually, but my point is, intentionally timeshift your entertainment by even a mere year and you can save *so* much $! https://t.co/Zihky1Qfol

@tom_a_r_johnson good critique here https://t.co/wanrL0tf2V

@tom_a_r_johnson hmm yeah that's a great case study in doing an artsy thing just because you can.. https://t.co/WDTonnmUv1

@CookedNick eh, I think that one was OK. The genderbending was enough to make it novel enough.

@chetfaliszek Well, we also need to stop using Twitter. I'm in the process of winding down still. I have a thing I'm doing to end mine (well, go read only), it'll be fun for all.

@Shedletsky I'd say they are equally good in subtly different ways

@owyn_merrilin to be fair, their products have been very good, especially lately.

@frandallfarmer we need more @discourse ! It's not a direct replacement for Twitter, though, which is very much its own flavor of ice cream.

@ClipperChip @AvunitAnon {chef's kiss}

@nicksaraev @ESYudkowsky no. We've done bayesian inference forever. Now the corpus is enormous (lol) and we have GPUs, so.. everything else logically follows. It ain't magical intelligence.

@NezumiRonin uhhh I have some bad news for you https://t.co/6Ys8JkbaC5

@harris_edouard @ESYudkowsky Sure: prove P=NP. https://t.co/17YJFJm0kw

still a national treasure; their take on Andor https://t.co/Nu0nMyeKZe

@dialloibu I love that they have slightly different and both great takes, you can enjoy both independently!

The infinity dodecahedron! https://t.co/w0tvyYaCaB

@ESYudkowsky uh, no, not unless we move the goalposts of the definition of "AI" quite a lot.

@hcetamd @TimSweeneyEpic But you sure don't ever see "save 3% by paying us with cold hard cash" in very many stores. I see it in a scant handful of mom&pop operations only.

It's available today! https://t.co/OvWwRUf6Ms

@TimSweeneyEpic It’s a good start to say “cheaper if you buy on our website!” buuuut credit card vendors usually prohibit this kind of activity, e.g. “paying with cash costs you and us 3 percent less!”

oh my god "10 HACK ANY COMPUTER THAT I LIKE IN THE WORLD FROM THIS SHITTY LITTLE MACHINE, 20 GOTO 10" got me so bad 🤣

@KiwiBoyUS oh no cc @betsyphd that's also true here in about a month.. I hope it is enforced or at least there is a slow change.

@Beschizza yeah this needs to start in a bright-red state like WY or OK, not gonna start in deep blue CA

@puf I remember them adding some other form of new UI to add extra "thanks" to a post, though?

@kendroiddddd once a week?

@waruboy not a "cybersecurity" risk per se, but more of a "new tool that humans can use to annoy other humans at a much higher frequency" .. that is absolutely true

@waruboy yes, thank you for bringing it to my attention

@sarahjeong I had to look it up! https://t.co/4n5hECqPIq

@yarone I appreciate it, thank you, but I was truly and honestly asking on behalf of everyone else, to be mindful of how often people are "throwing cool stuff into a void"

@jlericson Yeah, well, remember the company name changed from Stack Overflow to Stack Exchange and then back to Stack Overflow. "Name after your largest property" is kind of a common strategy and I more or less agree with it

people do, indeed, also ask that, and have been asking it for thousands of years

@sea_twin @seedoubleya huh. Well, it's hard to name a product that *isn't* made in China at this point so to me, complaining about that feels like spitting into the wind.. I don't know that I'd agree Apple is "chasing profit beyond all sense", especially since they've introed lower-cost ipads/iphones

@davidjames that is very high praise indeed. Thank you. 🙇

The Jackpot, as conceived in 2014, is looking quite prescient https://t.co/JARSjZqYOm

@gstoyanov90 @herval https://t.co/qQbZMbpe9G

@manuelhe @almafeta has it gotten any better since then? Especially in light of the current news re: Twitter 😔

@stevegraham Not at the time he was doing this, though.

@timwillsie 🥹 note that it gets much easier as they get older, specifically when they finally join your team (they are very much on their OWN team until at least age 6), and become a lot more self sufficient and some of the most fascinating people you'll ever meet!

@ericlippert Cheers and thanks for the update! I was curious exactly what was going on over there..

@migueldeicaza @jwz @pmarca I would be wary of interacting with anyone who isn't blocked by @pmarca

@jeffreylindsey I was 100% asking on behalf of others, *not* for myself, so feel free to merely ❤️ the tweet

@jlericson "stackoverflowknows" implies the community knows. Compare with "Khan Academy" which .. well, who owns it is in the name.

@textfiles yeah, side effect of everything becoming all video all the time, and every human livestreaming 24/7.

@mrdenny yeah it really sucks. These are textbook fair use scenarios.

@davidjames Honestly I'm too close to the subject (literally) to have a good answer to that. Interested to hear what others think, as they see me more clearly than I can.

@jongalloway wow that's a big move!

@kngstn_s There are a few direct ports, but does the switch play every Wii game? https://t.co/fa93bj7RMv

it's like they *paid to have someone scrub the entire internet* of iSteve by Funny or Die. I couldn't believe it! I mean, it's not a great film by any means but it has hilarious moments.

These fair use clips (very brief sections of copyrighted work, used to illustrate something else) are pulled, and I *cannot* find anywhere to view it after an hour of search, so.. I literally bought the DVD and encoded it myself, let's try this: https://t.co/yT7kyQJdoK

@davidjames is that how you see me? it's hard to see myself, it's the most difficult thing

@keithvai @Carnage4Life A good PM will push back, *hard*, on a bad strategy from the top. And if the org can't support that.. the org will eventually fall to a competitor over time.

"And it made me sort of excited to think on it. You having the chance to become whatever you want."

full season now available https://t.co/Kdd9kNfP83

I will quiet down about this topic now, but the secret (and insanely difficult) warzone quest they put in the game is really, really cool. That is all! https://t.co/AUNWFlDsN3

@Carnage4Life it's a virtual subtweet!

@TeeZeroHero definitely, no contest

@Nican I think you can google for anti-paywall strategies; I'm not advocating for anything in particular, I find the articles insightful

@rhaksw I'm not super convinced many places actually *implement* this; do you have proof / citations where we know the technique is implented and is not just a theory

@tobypinder @GRMule yeah the advantage of the self-driving car bet I did with @ID_AA_Carmack is that the SAE had all the rules-lawyering already defined for us! 🤝 https://t.co/3TG3irQ1W0

@textfiles you're making a case for "autocomplete for everything" which is fine and I can possibly get behind that but it is NOT "a huge cybersecurity risk" nor is it "artificial general intelligence" (AGI)

@gteather @Carnage4Life all super interesting; thank you for sharing. I will respectfully point out that YEARS later I still had major issues with just basic stuff on Xbox One. I can dig up the tweets if you *really* want but.. just trust me on this.

@SnarkyPixel_ @zorendk The iPhone was plenty possible, you can draw a direct line from Apple Newton to it. Anyway, take my bet! I enjoy winning :)

@seedoubleya really? what does Cook do? I've heard nothing remotely close to what Jobs did. Or anything at all, frankly.

@SnarkyPixel_ Feel free to take on my bet! https://t.co/3TG3irQ1W0

p.s. I'm gonna win

@gteather @Carnage4Life Yeah The "Wii and Guitar Hero syndrome". Fads come and go, like.. Clubhouse, TriviaHQ

@gteather @Carnage4Life yes and @Carnage4Life basically introduced me to the term "strategy tax" back in the day, if not invented it?

I mean, you can be both, but.. is it really that hard not to be a jerk?

@zorendk I mean, there's a reason the term "Reality Distortion Field" was invented for Steve Jobs. The trick is to not let it take over your own mind, and also remember Jobs parked in handicapped spots and drove around with no license plates because he was an asshole.

@seesharp Yeah basically go into bios, enable S3. I have no idea why S3 has been bios-disabled on so many machines by default, though? Like why is S0 state preferred? WTF? https://t.co/13qPzNY2p1

@Nullcast I consider that "people will continue to suck at using software" which is a different proposition (and a given)
