I have everyone record their own audio remotely on like audacity or obs or whatever and I put them together in editing. If you do that, do a clap sync at the beginning to make editing easier. Otherwise I use obs to capture my mic and my discord output on separate tracks.

This is a great reminder that technology isn't here to do anything. It just exists. And this particular technology is almost exclusively being used to replace artists.

Also the future of creativity does not belong to collective intelligence, whatever that means.

Bird could be ground to counter poison, but that's kinda weird for a bird. Unless they do a flightless bird thing like a cassowary which fits the tropical island theme. Idk tho, those determined leaf eyes read like hes gonna be a thinker. A sort of ponderer.

Ok I'm calling my shot, water gecko will become water/poison type, friendly fire dog will become fire/fairy type, meaning the starters will be double effective against each other, which means green bird will probably be grass/psychic.

The West Wing, Star Trek TNG, Leverage. These are all shows known for being "competency porn." I like these shows, anyone know of some other good ones?

This might be controversial given the direction literally everything is heading, but I actually don't want my stereo to be sentient I just want it to eat cds and play music.

We’ve got a beautiful animated trailer to announce our 1.0 release date. And we’re looking for a gaming site or YouTube channel to feature it. Anyone interested? 🌞

I love that little fire dog

I can feel the artists flipping through their projects, looking for that sprigatito meme where they are pushing their paws to stay on the ground so they can hastily change it to that fire dog

Thank you The Onion, before I was a laughing stock among my peers. Now they come to my home and see a stack of print Onion newspapers on the coffee table and now they will finally look me in the eyes.

So you're probably gonna have a lot of MK L O R E floating around. Impress (or disappoint) your friends by knowing all there is to know by listening to The Lore You Know (also we don't just read out the Lore we do jokes and stuff)

This is the modern day equivalent of those old times guys figuring out electricity and zapping a dead frog and it moves around they all go:

One time we watched the road to El Dorado in class and it got to the dick sucking scene and our teacher fast forwarded it but I already had that movie memorized and that's how I learned that was a scene that contained dick sucking implications.

Oh no pizza rolls are marketing that they are 10 cents a roll which is a recession indicator

Just learned about the Canadian curling drama and I, for one, am very invested as this is the Olympic sport I am most likely to go into.

He's walking with rhythm

To attract a worm

But it's a very small worm

And it's not Timmy Shimmy or Zendaya it's a bird

If one of them is not "launch me a 2000 dollar per month side hustle" then this tech is a lie.

Thank you all for having fun with my post. It's fun to see what people have to say about this very infulential game. Fun fact: the reason Navi talks so much is because this game was very weird and different at the time and the developers didn't know if the gamers could figure it out on their own.

We've finally come full circle. People are longing for less chatter dialogue in their games by referencing ocarina, a game that people consistently complained about Navi being too talkative to the point of it being a meme for 20 odd years.
