So I’m just supposed to believe these microscopic nanites, which are designed to individually implant into humans and act as a digital symbiote, can merge together into a complex solid robot? 😒

Also I can’t help thinking back to Iron Man 1/2 and how nanite technology of that level would have felt so out-of-place in the world that existed at that time. But now I’m supposed to believe it existed well before those movies took place. Ok.

They are supposed to announce details about the physical release today but they haven’t yet.

Ah fuck glad he finally sees justice but this will put a damper on my rewatches of Forgetting Sarah Marshall.

We have the chance to do the funniest thing (think Morbius)

I’m too nervous to have Bitwarden be both my password manager and 2FA service

I still see it?

I changed to Nord last night for VPN service. I had heard a lot of good things about Mullvad, but an article I read showcased some speed comparisons where Nord was typically 2-4x faster. So far so good but it’s been less than 24h.

I like to think my plan cancellation last night helped. Now they gotta oust the CEO.

The karts more or less move at the same speed consistently, some a bit slower because they are tanker, and some a bit faster. Some have better speed and control in the air (and air control is so much better and more meaningful in this game vs Mario Kart.) Courses often have boost pads for temporary speed increases. But there’s no CC’s like you have in Mario Kart- the game really only has one speed.

If you have the means to play the original GameCube game on an emulator or something, that could also give you a good idea of how the game feels overall. The new one has a faster base speed for everything though.

I don’t want to think about the sound of a jolly rancher rocketing into a child’s incisor

Don’t sleep on Kirby Air Riders. If you have the means to borrow it from a friend or library, try it out! Especially since you mention you like the chaotic MKW races- the chaos is turned up to 11 in this game.

It’s unfortunately a divisive game, though, where according to everything I’ve read online you either love it or hate it, so I can’t comfortably recommend you drop cash for it without trialing it first. But as a veteran of the original I think it’s brilliant.

Hearing him talk in an American English accent would probably disarm at least half of the casual racist crowd.
