Loved the characters, but the movie plot felt like a clipshow of a bigger plot that didn't fit into 2 hours. I haven't watched the anime but it probably was.

What!? Hackers at 31%? The one with young Angelina Jolie? The critics gotta be some uncultured swine. That movie was gold! It was The Matrix type of cool before The Matrix. It put the punk part into cyberpunk for a lot of kids.

Also its a bad influence: Got kids inspired to learn about phreaking and phone systems.

Is that cleaned up or are there a pile there after a while?

In my culture its common courtesy to thank a person after the meal, either the one who made it, brought it, or paid for it. But only if they're present. It ain't a ritual. Same-ish thing.

 

What were they called again? Demotivational posters? First memes I made. Still got them in a folder. They are awful, so I wont post them.

I dont think I'm addicted yet, but I'm certainly been checking Lemmy more often than I used to check Reddit. Also I'm active on Mastodon while I barely used to touch Twitter. It's because its something new and fresh and active. I'll probably tire of it soon.

With the new climate its gonna be used so often that we need a shorter word for it.

Hmm.. Hex'd? Cli-angry? Hausted? Nah, doesn't feel catchy enough.

 

Saw one actor, Colm Meaney, in Marlowe recently. He still feels like O'Brien to me.

 

Darn hot here. 32℃ is maybe not much for some people, but it will take some time for me to get used to.

CS1 had game mechanics for cold. You think CS2 eventually gonna get some effects for particularly hot days? In real life crime increases when theres a heat wave. Beaches (and traffic to beaches) fills up. Tourism increases. And many hot days without rain becomes droughts. And chance for forest fires increases. All the air conditioners drains more power, which must be mitigated by having a city with more greens.

Having a few of these mechanics in the game could be fun. Or annoying when roads you never had any plans for gets packed with traffic, of course.
