Lightfall’s campaign was weak for what it didn’t explain of events and lore, and #Destiny 2 can be tough to onboard for new people, but I wouldn’t throw away the whole game. It’s still the magic endless fun it’s always been. This “Destiny 3” noise doesn’t make sense to me:

Cyberpunk 2077 with the new path tracing off, and on. Tested with: Nvidia 3070 at 1440p.

I wonder if subscriptions are transferrable upon death? Probably not.

I'm in Canada but if we have something similar, I would also decline it. I wouldn't be alive long enough for its full duration of 40 years, so I may as well not pre-emptively pay taxes on something I couldn't fully redeem.

Whoah in the United States if you win a game subscription prize, it's considered taxable income and you have to pay taxes. 😲

So I asked Blue Willow to make me a :

Smurf versus Godzilla, city battle, hollywood monster movie

And what I got back was not disappointing. 😋 It's a 3-way hybrid of Kong, Smurf and Godzilla, all blue and furry but with tail and tallons along the spine, with the face and mouth of Kong.

My 5+ years evolution from Scawed No Pewpew #Mercy, to (Enemy) Heroes Always Die aggressiveness represented as my history with gaming computers so far. 👼 😈

It's impossible to please folks as #Mercy in #Overwatch competitive mode if a team loses:

-Mercy defeats back-dive-flankers attacking her because nobody looks behind? MERSY Y U NO HEAL?

-Mercy takes out a sniper that everybody is ignoring and getting killed by. MERCY Y NO HLZ

-Mercy asks for sniper help. MERCY PLAY ANA KILL HER UR SELF

-Team kill happens while Mercy is desperately trying to chase after everyone who is off 1v1ing far in the weeds. MERSY U SUK.

Sigh. But I love Mercy. :D ❤️ 👼

PS: all your souls are belong to me. I play #Mercy in #Overwatch. Your lives are mine to decide what to do with. #necromancer

A republican governor in Florida called #transgender people mutants and demons from another planet today.

While I would so love to own both these, and I will claim the demon part muwahaha, we can’t be mutants from another planet because a mutant is mutated life from the same planet.

For me to be mutant AND from another planet, the governor would have to believe that alien life exists. His religion won’t allow him to. But hey, welcome to #science and wondering about the #Drake equation. :D

Tried to do MIDI-softsynth #music with my M1 #iPad Pro last night. Forgot that there isn’t a headphone jack on “modern” devices. So how to send a USB digital piano MIDI signal to the iPad, and hear the iOS app’s softsynth? Don’t bother using AirPods, the delay is so high from key press to when the tone is heard.

So I’ve had to join Dongle Club(TM) and ordered a USB-C hub that has a USB A port and a headphone jack. Sigh. This used to be so easy on older iPads. So much for techno “progress”.
