So I'm still playing Monster Hunter rise. Just got access to the 6th level quests, and recently came across a black sleeping gorilla with horns on it while I was hunting another monster. I decided to see how tough it was, and that wasn't the best idea I've ever come up with.

Apparently this thing is called a Rajang, and wow.... It's fast and it hits really really hard. Apparently he's a throwback to how difficult the game used to be. That little experiment didn't last long, but I'm glad I figured out what it was.

I decided to play Grand Theft Auto IV, which holds up surprisingly well. The graphics have a blurry watercolor look, but the animations are still pretty cool. Especially when Niko tries to steal a car, more varied than V. Good stuff.

I’ve just been playing Triangle Strategy, with a bit of Tetris 99 to get the Kirby theme. About 6 hours into TS and have only had three battles. It takes awhile setting up all the characters and story stuff but I’m enjoying it so far.

Yeah, so I went back to his hotel room and they might have topped that moment from the 1st game.

Where you trapped a rat using a cheesy smelling used dildo in a condom.

First off upon searching his room you find assorted dildos, a ball gag and stacks of Tissues.

Then in tingles hotel room there's a lever marked as "highly suspicious lever".

They put a window covered in a roll down shutter so I thought it would open when the lever was pressed.

Instead a crucifix in a X shape drops down dangling from a chain.

There's a dude in a full body black latex gear with gimp mask. He's chained to the X and has a massive black dildo strapped to his waist.

More creepy still the guy appears to be dead, there are no signs of life. Also sex music starts playing and the lighting darkens.

Hey guys, Switch has got some good sales at the moment.

Daedalic, adventure game publishers have the likes of State of Mind, Silence and Deponia for like $2.00 or 2 euros each.

Ive played them and they are well worth that money. In fact it's pretty ridiculous when you consider the effort and production values.

You guys know of a good cheap or free video editor with chroma key green screen support. That doesn't require high end PC specs?

Looking to eventually edit in 4K.

I'm an amateur. So easy to use would be best, free would be good so I could test it out.

I haven't done any complicated video editing, but I've done simple things with OpenShot. It does support chroma key. It should be lightweight as well.

So, Elon bought Twitter with 20% of his total worth, to take down the barriers of free speach the company had installed (apparently?)  Any thoughts?

Good on him. It's a significant share of his money. Bezos bought Washington Post, he buys Twitter.  Look up William Randolf Hearst (on whom, I dedicated a number of years of research). Barons like to own the presses. Hearst used his power of the press to start a few wars.

Personally, I would not spend that much money on something as useless and transitory as Twitter or the Washington Post, but it's not my money.  I still think Elon is a tool of the Defense department, and this is a fairly good distraction.

No personal experience, but it sounds expensive.

Not sure I could go back to it, but I have been thinking of playing 5 again.

I've had very limited gaming time this week, last two weeks really.  Yesterday I play Dog's Life for PS2 for about an hour. (ouch). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dog's_Life

Talk about not holding up.

To me the problem is broader. A massive issue in the world has been disinformation in social media. It affected the 2016 US election, and many elections since globally. It impacted the effectiveness of COVID mitigation efforts. This was already an issue that needing further addressing.

Twitter, while a cesspool in its own right, at least tried a little. Moderation was incredibly inconsistent, and the reporting system vulnerable to abuse and manipulation, but there was still a set of rules that for most people was kind of enforced sometimes maybe. It was more willing to take action against COVID and political disinformation campaigns. What we don't need is another right-wing psychopath taking the reigns of one of these companies. The world is struggling, and it doesn't need another L, even if it's unclear  at this point whether there will be a materialistic impact.

But please keep consideration for those more impacted by coordinated harassment online, as his entire personality is 4chan troll. Things are already bad, but they can be much worse, and push more vulnerable people out of much needed online communities.

Not really sure how I feel about Elon Musk buying Twitter to be honest. I am kind of interested to see how it might change though.

The way the corporate media has so negatively responded to Elon's purchase of Twitter makes me believe he's on the right track. Time will tell.

This is exactly how I feel. It's too dangerous to allow the ones who purposely lie and spread misinformation back in the name of "freedom of speech."

I believe freedom of speech is absolutely necessary in a democracy. Censorship is not the answer to lies, more speech is.

I saw that recommended in an article thanks. I'll try that. I would probably get Filmora but it needs 8gb or ram for HD videos wtf?

God what an awful day.

I'm self employed and use a card reader for payments. Transactions go to the payment company and once a week they give me a payout of the weeks earnings.

So this customer I last saw a couple of weeks ago gets a charge, supposedly to my name on the 25th.

But looking at my account with the payment company there haven't been any transactions on that day, and nothing between the 21st and 26th.

The card reader has to be in close proximity to someone's card to work via NFC and obviously I have been nowhere near this person in a couple of weeks.

So it looks like someone has hacked the customers account and used my name as a payee.

It's not a huge amount of money, like 90 USD or something. But having to deal with a customer, not her fault of course-but having to deal with this crap is the last thing I need.

I also double checked my bank account and nothing has come in on that date either. But either way the transaction history seems accurate to the minute and date with my appointment records.
