Been a while since I've seen Mosquito Cost, but as I recall he invents a super refrigerator that cools things down like a reverse microwave. Nobody takes him seriously, so he takes his toys and he and his family move to Central America where his family learns to hate him. Definitely recommend skipping it.

K-19 was a pretty good movie about a nuclear disaster aboard a submarine. Worth a watch.

AOE lockpick was always fun. Walk into a building, fire it off. Hey, no locked doors.

If I had a dollar for every news article that talked about how such-and-such regulatory body "might" do something that benefits consumers over corporations, I could actually afford all those hidden fees.

True. But Dessalines literally says that he agrees with people who disagree that a genocide is taking place. That is a denial. We can shuffle syntax around all day long.

If you scrolled down you'd see Dessalines' comment. Although another user commented elsewhere that the URL was busted. Here is a SS for you:

Weird, I just went to it and it seems to work. I'll SS it and post it in my comment for ease.

Here is Dessalines denying that any genocide is taking place: https://lemmy.ml/comment/471382

They can say "we don't support genocide" all day long, but denying that any genocide is taking place and actively trying to persuade others that no genocide is happening isn't any better.

I argue that it unintentionally supports a genocide since they're using a platform to (inadvertently) hide the genocide from the public by convincing others that nothing of the sort is happening.

QFG 2 and 4 were absolute masterpieces, with 4 being the pinnacle of the series. The eastern Germanic lore mixed with Eldritch horror, gorgeously painted artwork throughout, and the voice acting was spot on. John Rhys-Davies as narrator was a perfect fit (even though he thought the whole thing was a shitshow), and the 3 villages riffing off each other was fucking hilarious.

When I was a kid it baffled me that the 3 townspeople's voices never matched the text. It was only a few years ago I learned that when those 3 voice actors were in the studio, they would ad-lib the fuck out of their lines. The Coles kept cracking up and just kept the completely wrong lines in there without changing any of the text.

Just started a new playthrough a couple months ago on my steam deck, but with the new(ish) VGA remake of QFG2, since the text parser would be a bitch on the deck.
