will prob write about this next week but the entire premise of it is an act of narrative cowardice. there are the briefest glimpses there of someone on the team wanting to tackle actual global issues, but it all gets buried under the least offensive, most nonsensical adversary imaginable

these switch websites all make it sound like these are VASTLY DIFFERENT EXPERIENCES, turns out if you're a normal person they're largely the same and trying different ones just sends you spiralling into choice paralysis

i cannot stress enough that kotaku, a video game website run on fumes and dreams, had substantially higher editorial standards in 2012 than CBS does in 2025

southpaw @nycsouthpaw.bsky.social · 1d

Auspicious start for the new CBS News, laundering unattributed cop shit-talking through the incoming editor-in-chief’s blog and failing to correct a misspelling of the story subject’s name in the web headline for three days.

"you'll vote conservative when you're older" only worked when you got richer as you get older.

lmaooo the other fixes were "roll back drivers" or "get beta driver" and im not even doing that, they can just patch the game thank you very much

Luke Plunkett @lukeplunkett.com · 1d

every solution sounds like more trouble than its worth

stuff like this is never fun (i just wanna play the game!), but i can at least appreciate how funny and overblown the error is. no "oh hey there's a slight driver issue here", it just went straight to "DID YOU PULL OUT YOUR GPU WITH YOUR BARE HANDS LIKE AN ANIMAL??!!!"

my battlefield 6 experience has been 58 minutes of the campaign and about three hours of googling and trying fixes to my particular catastrophic crash, none of which work

(this is not my pic/card, but ive got the same error, which says my CARD HAS BEEN PHYSICALLY REMOVED)
