Still think TITNC3: Return of the Iceberg was peak

That's how you do it...
Years ago DuPont spun off chemours to absorb this liability...The Way Johnson and Johnson wish the had for their baby powder liability....Stock is up 20% because the $$ knows they got off easy. Forever chemicals are forever...money will run out

 

Speaking of that kind of stuff, I wonder what happens when plastics are implicated in the human race losing reproductive capacity.

oddly...most would say we do not have a reproduction problem...

 

It's an interesting topic.

odd how green the market was today

 

Holy shit. 20.8% short exempt ratio on BBIG today. That's the highest I've ever seen on any stock. @kairo what was GME's highest ever short exempt ratio?

 

FNGD might be a good buy sometime soon. Timing it right could be a bit difficult tho

 

Personally i don't think the AI thing is gonna catch on as well as projected

 

Makes sense ..

I have no idea. Diablo 4 is out. I don't care about stocks now for the next 8 months.

 

I've got to wait until tomorrow. I bought the standard DL edition. Then read afterwards only the Deluxe edition got Jun 1 access. Bullshit.

 

I got FOMO since I've been playing Diablo 1 from day one.

D4 is.....it's good. It's not quite a Diablo game yet. The bones are there, but there's some definite issues they're gonna have to work through. Not that they shipped a bad game, but it's notoriously hard to balance ARPGs until you get hardcore players finding ways to break your game and adjust accordingly.

Casual players will absolutely love it as it sits right now. The environment, cut scenes, music, and voice acting is cinema quality. It's a gorgeous environment to interact with.
Diablo nerds who've been playing since they were in superman underoos have some legitimate gripes that I hope get addressed.

My three biggest bitches thus far (and I'm def not alone)
1. Field of view is way, way too zoomed in.
2. Entire skill trees are completely useless and nonviable for several characters.
3. I'm not a fan of the level scaling. I like it in the sense that you can play with other people and no matter what your level, you're all on the same relative difficulty, but it takes away a lot of the "I found an awesome new piece of gear and now I can steamroll for the next 10 levels." You're constantly playing at the limits of your ability, which kinda makes me feel what's even the point of leveling up.

But I've been playing for like 2 days now, and those of us that remember 11 years ago know how much of a shitshow D3 was at launch. I'm cautiously optimistic that my biggest gripes will get fixed. Level scaling, unfortunately, is probably here to stay. Kind of a shame. A lot of what people liked about the other games was once you got leveled up, you could go back to easier areas and just blast through enemy mobs like a god. That's not in this game. You go back to the starting area at level 80, and you're fighting level 80 trash mobs.

 

Is there music? Diablo 2 soundtrack made the entire game.

 

Indeed there is. Music score is very good. Some of the old D2 tracks show up at important moments.

 

The theme of an entire generation of gamers

Local ASO is getting stronger now that the local Field and Stream is closing. Dick's sporting goods was sharing the building space with F&S, but now that F&S is closing....Dicks is expanding

It's gonna be a big Dicks...some would even call it massive.

 

I went in Dick's in Mansfield, MA and was like "WTF? This place is a ghost town...it's like a giant open warehouse with just random racks and shelves of odd items...not displays...not branding..."

Subsequently I found out it's a sale Warehouse and SHOULD look that way...LOL...

 

You know what's really great...
When your work throws you $100 for compensation for something...

and SS
and then your extra $50 per check for taxes


and you get a check for $13...
thanks big guy...
