i am a born hater of VGM & any production that is ingratiatingly "cinematic" but the Son Lux stuff in here is fucken undeniable. I'll inevitably switch at some point to scoring runs w/ some proper post-seapunk club mixes but I haven't even wanted to mute the menu yet www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ii7K...
"Hi, I work for fartboner. Fuck. Fartboner. Fuck. Fartboner. Fuck. I work for Fartbo-"
thereβs probably I lot in here I love that Destiny heads have already experienced, but translating those MMO raid bits to a match with a game clock and a scoreboard made the appeal much more legible.
what put me over the edge after waffling over my too-brief beta impressions was someone in a review calling it a βdeathmatch roguelite.β the baseline difficulty of the PVE makes the potential sweatiness of the PVP not sting + they absolutely nailed the hook for checking loot & lore b4 requeuing
the Sony FX500's E-beam irradiated sorting chip acts as an integrated flow cell/nozzle and can be easily installed and removed. the sample and sheath fluid are injected into the chip's micro-fluidic channels from inlet ports. excitation lasers interrogate the sample within the chip, and then the sample it passes through, and is sorted as droplets. the chip is directly connected to the waste line and can be declogged using software commands. Unlike traditional systems that require nozzles to be removed for manual cleaning, the FX500 system uses an automated purge and prime cycle triggered by the software to clear the chip. A chip can be used continuously without removing it. The chip is available in 70-ΞΌm and 100-ΞΌm allowing researchers to easily adapt the system to various cell sizes.
decades after Walkman, some designers at Sony still know how to do cassette futurism. this future looks like Juicero because the future is brutally stupid, but also bc that's the name of the game for making the probing of biological unknowns repeatable and scaleable, single use plastics ad astra.
sony biotechnology's cell isolation system CGX10 tubing kit includes a plastic tube specifically made for controlling the liquid that comes in contact with the sample. this single-use disposable tubing is intended to be replaced after each use. a new tubing kit can be used for each patient, avoiding contamination between samples.
the body horror is still there, but it's the subtle body horror of understanding that, as thinking meat tubes, it wouldn't matter too much to our sensoria if our proverbial sausage casings were made of pvc. for risk mitigation reasons, our bosses would probably prefer it.
it's true biopunk, without having to be so in your face. like look we cloned a bug that's a cellphone and some unlucky posthumans are livestock, is that fucked up or what.
Marathon is holy-shit-is-this-a-real-game incredible. the theft was inconscionable but clearly the rest of the team did not slack one bit at doing what I'd hoped *someone* would do for postcyberpunk at a grander scale. put it up there w/ HL2, Dishonored, Control, Death Stranding as an artbook great.
itβs a shame that tactics ogre starring adam sandler didnβt make it out of development hell, but at least limited run making it up to us by doing a special release of bright (2017)
it rules that thereβs a song you can show anyone with even a passing interest in indie americana or w/e and get a response of βwell this is obviously a candidate for greatest recording in history.β no need to hype it up or anything, it just *speaks* to people.

how about a conspiracy theory that elon musk, jeff bezos, et al are launching intentionally bright satellite constellations in order to prevent astronomers from spotting the aliens. maybe we can do "i'd never thought i'd fight side by side with a Coast to Coast AM listener" to science's benefit
For the liberals who have come around to recognizing Israel's genocidal campaign, what are the implications besides Stop? Do you all support the war crimes prosecution of US citizens serving in the IDF? How does it shape your understanding of the Houthi leadership in Yemen? Should the universities reinstate suspended students? Should the pundits and politicians who slandered them as racists apologize? How should we hold accountable the American politicians β particularly the Democrats β who supplied, excused, and co-committed these crimes? Should Netanyahu be arrested if he steps foot in the US? How should Joe Biden pay?
