(Beartato and Reginald, in a museum, gaze upon the Mona Lisa)

BEARTATO: There it is. The Mona Lisa. The most famous painting in history.
REGINALD: Wow! What's it do?

BEARTATO: It... what?
REGINALD: Why's it famous? What's it do?

(Beartato thinks.)

BEARTATO: I don't know.

REGINALD (to nearly museum employee): Excuse me! Sir? What's it do?

EMPLOYEE: You're the first person to ask! Watch this!

(The employee yanks a pull-string. Mona Lisa's eyes spin around and her mouth opens like a puppet)
MONA LISA: Honk honk! Honk honk!

(Everyone is delighted. This is true art.)

Arachnophobia modes are an odd duck to me. There are so many phobias deployed in games but we really only see the kid gloves for spiders. Why are we encouraging the removal of horror from *checks notes* horror games?

I think I heard you say you played the DS Castlevanias but did you ever play Symphony of the Night? It's my favorite game of all time and why I have loved the genre for decades.

Yep, that's the thing: the cost of living in cities (where the big corps HQ) has always been expensive but it's insane these days and the corps have to pay to make it worth it.

Or they could allow more remote work so people live in cheaper rural areas but that doesn't make the city landlords happy!

Cook, Serve, Delicious! 2!! Full Original Soundtrack By Jonathan Geer
Cook, Serve, Delicious! 2!! Full Original Soundtrack By Jonathan Geer YouTube video by The Melodier

Cook, Serve, Delicious! 2!! is a BANGER co-op cooking game with a surprisingly catchy soundtrack. I and a previous partner played it for like a hundred hours, has TONS of levels.

One of the songs went right into my regular rotation: www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nTX...

"Set in the haunting world of Hispania, a nightmarish reimagining of Spain" alone has me interested.

I mean, it's a video GAME, not a TV show. Anyway, "you should have known it had this quirk" is never a good defense against criticism. It doesn't exist in a vacuum.

I've noticed almost every friend with kids I know don't make it taboo around their kids and even let them swear a little but they explain when and why it's okay or not. It's the classic case of "make it mundane and kids won't care about it."

Man. Between the assault on bot homeworld in Helldivers 2 (cyborg martial arts), the massive Overwatch update (love the new heroes), and Sektori (Geometry Wars perfected), I'm eating hearty at the gaming table.

Baseball continues to have the best OT rules and I never understand why so many other sports just ignore the obvious.

Asked Claude Cowork organize my wife's desktop, it stated doing it, asked for a permission to delete temp office files, I granted it, and then it goes "ooops"
Turns out it tried renaming and accidentally deleted a folder with all of the photos my wife made on her camera for the last 15 years. All photos of kids, their illustrations, friends' weddings, travel, everything.
It's not in trash, it was done via terminal It's not in iCloud, it already synced the new file structure.
She didn't have Time Machine.
Disc recovery tools can't see anything.
I called Apple and they pointed me to a feature in iCloud allowing to retrieve files that were saved before but are no longer on iCloud Drive (they keep them for 30 days).
I'm now watching it load tens of thousands of files. I nearly had a heart attack.

Only good thing to come out of Kid Rock is the sound clip of that couple singing that part so terribly. Makes me giggle every time.
