Today I was driving my car, and by car I meant c-ard-board box with wheels painted on the side of it.

26·20 days agoScavenger trait gives bonus evolution points to spend on other upgrades. Flying is strong on carapace centric builds. Makes sense.

37·6 months agoThe footage still has to make it home to be seen. Just because something is recorded does not mean that every person will eventually see it. Most jumbotron footage is boring, people generally do not seek it out for casual entertainment. It very likely would be lost had it not gone viral.

Games@lemmy.world•A New Guilty Gear Game Has Been CanceledEnglish
1·6 months agoSo you really believe that the executives at Sony and Marvel, the international multimedia conglomerate known for their 15+ year long term carefully planned movie universe, was able to draft up a contract and approve a decision that allowed another third party company from a completely different cultural background who has never worked with Sony or these characters before to have free reign over their most profitable license? And also that company was able to have brand new art designs complete with fully functional 3D models in addition to passing a global, multi-corporation approval process?
I don’t believe it. 10 years of forsight is the most basic and standard approach for these guys. The current Marvel empire was founded on planning ahead.

3·6 months agoIirc, Tokon was their super secret project they had been hinting at for the past ~10 years. This result is likely more cuz Strive wasn’t supposed to live for 6 seasons and a movie, but here we are.
YEEEAAAHHHHHOO HOOO HAAA HOOOOIIIESEE
Friendly reminder that Korea invented and perfected micro-transactions. MapleStory has done more damage to both worldwide gaming and Korean game devs than anything else could ever hope to.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•The USA spends $15k/student annually which is 30% higher than the global median. Why do U.S. schools have "fundraisers" where kids are incentivized to sell stuff to people?
4·7 months agoBecause the public school funding comes from public taxpayer money. This means the school does not get to choose how to spend it since the money belongs to the people. The people have voted and greenlit several pre-approved items for schools to spend money on, but anything outside of that needs to be approved by a vote.
Getting people to vote on this item is a Heraclean effort to say the least. Education budget often is the least immediately impactful thing on the ballot, if it makes it that far. Especially in states with strong traditional religious areas. For example, Puritans don’t believe that sports are something that kids should take seriously cuz it’s a game (literally something along the lines of: Games can be pleasurable, seeking pleasure is sin you should only seek God, therefore games are sinful). They don’t want their taxes going towards such sinful programs so they will always vote against it. This perspective is rooted in zealous obedience and is not something other people are willing to fight against.
TL;Dr It’s easier for schools to just get private funding themselves and sidestep the public budget restrictions, than it is to get a majority in the voting pool to approve the vote and implement new school budget item.

Sir, a second sled has hit the main plaza Christmas tree.
