Depends on how low your expectations are:

Granted it’s 7:30am, legally distinct, and I believe them bones are me.

I’d probably do a genre mix (3rd-person, themed boomer shooter?) if I had that capability, but I would probably struggle with with maps, writing, and just scope in general.

“He doesn’t need TWO of them!” explains Florida woman, the unlicensed clown who stole gun via illegal clown magic trick while at John Woo’s birthday bash.

EDIT: Imagine Gex saying it, especially if you don’t remember the John Woo game.

Yeah, I feel like the remakes lost some charm specifically when it comes to rendering tech (vertex colors, losing Spyro’s skyboxes feels like a crime). Particularly with the new data bloat.

That, and it seems re-makes don’t really fix core issues (Medievil’s remake).

I think the original tech/limits can be taken further aesthetically for a different workflow (very general/sparse use of textures), especially in the modern era. Still undecided on some artistic/technical choices, but I have much more here than I do in the ways of (low-scope) starting project ideas that I like.

Yes, because of the over-the-top “personally traveled” bit… and it’d likely end with DMCA.

Though looking at just one list of Nintendo’s mass takedown of free fan-games, it seems very likely* it directly resulted in many children being terribly upset (and maybe thinking they’ll be sued/jailed)… even if they made their own assets, just because they included a trademarked term in the title/description for something they just wanted to share with their friends. (I’m sure many did use assets, but we are likely talking about decades-old material here)

So it’s not that big of a stretch, it’s just not guaranteed that we’d hear this much about it.

*= judging by FNAF/sonic crossovers, content/spelling of titles, creepypasta stuff, and likely terrible art if you can still find more than a URL

Both is rule

reactions … are incredibly dark

Aside from a last resort, for what purpose?

I would rather go the opposite direction: brain stays (mostly) stock but supported by multiple other forms of life. Much more of a gut microbiome, harmless viruses etc add to immune system, mycelium network, microbiome automatically cleans surface.

Swap resources with a tree, filter contaminates from air/water or produce organic compounds, photosynthesis in larger tanks (stationary) or luminescence in organic gel (body).

That’d still just be a copy.

And sounds like “I like the idea of ai, but I want something even less ethical.” Unless it is highly specialized to the point of non-sapience. “Existence? Look buddy, I cook and that’s it. I can contemplate the life cycles of ingredients and I do my best to have a safe kitchen, but beyond that I don’t have the information to think about it.”

[ ✔️ ] Willing to convert, but into a cyborg because the distinction is important… but if I’m being honest I’m basically a defective organic robot, so if you put my canned brain into a metal body with a digital voice I would be indistinguishable from a robot.

I have a currently-apart T3200SX (+scraps of another that I took the screen from).

The red gas plasma screen is interesting, I couldn’t figure out how to install DOS on it and I don’t think I could cobble enough memory for other options. The timechip was bad too (not sure if that was preventing DOS or if I did something else wrong), I bought another but it was DOA too.

The HDDs I think were bad too, and this model was locked into using some proprietary drive. (probably could be bypassed for a newer drive, not sure)

That leaves out how public opinion changed after motive was known.

The assassination brought the many social issues with the Unification Church under the spotlight again, as well as tumbled the approval of the ruling party. Under the public pressure, the responsible ministry decided to file a dissolution order against the UC with the Tokyo District Court on 13 October 2023, after nearly a year of investigation of wrongdoings

Japanese people cosplaying Yamagami’s appearance during Abe’s assassination were spotted at events like the rally against Abe’s state funeral. These cosplayers held cardboard signs displaying the leaders they were against: Abe, Ali Khamenei, Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping

It is a free and easy way to experience 75% of the experience without even downloading it (data bloat has massively ballooned too, perhaps needlessly in some cases). Also linear stories, or procedural things not being as deep as they seem.

Even when it comes to indie-appearing stuff I often don’t like the direction of the game design/difficulty, so it will likely be a more enjoyable experience in those cases too. The narrator also cuts boring bits or issues, also may do things I would not especially when it comes to skill or knowledge of said game. They may do silly things or tell a story. This may be 300% experience (of a new mix).

EDIT: Also never really been into the idea of multiplayer games, competitive or cooperative for different reasons. So watching is a new avenue for that.

What is the charge?

Enjoying a 'toon? A classic decades-old cartoon‽

(Note: I believe the title has a typo, should be Teen Titans (2003))

Nah, HBO is just in their No! era.

you’re going to have to take a few tiny steps towards society, because society won’t make the first move

I feel like this works both ways. See Bowling Alone. Loneliness is a rising statistic, though unlike others I see isolation/escapism(/internet usage) as a symptom not a cause. I think money is a big reason.

Not sure about OP, but some of my perspective is from living in a tiny village in car-centric USA so there is not much social here for me, if anything at all. The “my people” are probably out there, perhaps even nearer than I think but that doesn’t mean we’ll ever have reason to know each other.
