  4. The graphical fidelity can sneak up on you. Eventually, you’re looking at everything and all the effects on the screen, and how you can traverse the entire world and see so much with no slow down, and you look at all the reflections, and you’re like wow, this game is beautiful.
  5. Fuck you. David DePape found guilty in Paul Pelosi hammer attack case WWW.NBCNEWS.COM A federal jury declared DePape guilty on all charges, after he broke San Francisco home of then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and attacked her husband with a hammer.
  6. Visually, it's a huuuuuuge jump. Being able to glide from Queens to the Financial District with barely any pop-in, a huge draw distance, in 60fps is incredible. I'd say there are some really good additions to the combat that makes it more dynamic.
  7. Top 20 Best-Selling Games For October 2023 In The US - GameSpot WWW.GAMESPOT.COM The best-selling games for October 2023 have been revealed; can you guess what was No. 1? October 2023: Year to Date: From Circana's analyst: "Launch month dollar sales of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 exceeded those of September 2018’s Marvel’s Spider-Man by a double-digit percentage." "Super Mario Bros. Wonder debuted as the #2 best-selling game of October 2023. It currently ranks as the 21st best-selling game of 2023 year-to-date (note: digital sales for Nintendo published titles are not in[c]luded in the title sales ranking charts)." When asked if the inclusion of digital sales would have had it beat SM2, he said it would not have. There's a BIG gap between #1 and #2. Quality reigns supreme in the Top 2. Both games are fabulous.
  8. What were you playing at launch? I got it for Christmas, so I didn't quite have it launch day. But the games I started with were launch games: Resogun and Black Flag.
  9. What they’re feeling toward today’s economic climate tells me that if Trump wins, he’ll just take credit for that and people will think he’s economic genius. So let’s please make sure he doesn’t win and Biden has another four years. Please and thank you. I’ll give you guys chocolate or something.
  10. It looks so good. I was prepared to buy it until I found out it’s not an outside the house portable device. Might just have to do the backbone.
  11. This keeps getting proven more and more and more.

  15. I'm about to air another part of a multi-part series of Florida's political history, so I've learned more about our state having combed through hours upon hours of debates, interviews, and research, along with multiple interviews from professors and party leaders. I'd say Florida isn't as simple as "Dems fucked," with the caveat that they might still be fucked on the presidential level in 2024 (but that that's not the only thing that matters): As far as Florida wins, the Jacksonville mayoral race was a big deal. Democrats also swept two city council races in Venice, a more Republican area of the state, in a county that swung for Republicans hard in 2022 (school board went from 3D-2R to 1D-4R last year). Nikki Fried's been working on making sure candidates are running everywhere in the state because lack of turnout in 2022 was the death knell to Democrats. Republicans showed up at close to the same levels in 2018, while Democrats had sub-50 turnout, which is abysmal. I got to speak to Fried a few times last year, and one time we just talked Florida politics for a while. She was really frustrated and cognizant about Democratic issues in the state, and I feel she's been much more involved on the ground, making sure Democrats are messaging constantly to get their positions out in contrast to DeSantis, and getting more Dem candidates to run. What she told me was that Democrats didn't run in a ton of positions last year, and even if a Dem has no chance to win, you'll get more Democrats excited and voting if you actually give them a candidate on their ballot. On that note, Lincoln project co-founder Rick Wilson came down here to speak to some Democratic groups. The main piece of advice he offered was to register voters, along the lines of, 'If the first thing you think of when you wake up isn't to register voters, then I want you to show me the 15-point pad you have in registered voters, because you don't.' He has Florida roots and detailed how Republicans in the 90s were running people down to mosquito control and assembled a wide bench because of being able to win at the local level. Dems have to do that and not just want another Obama to come along and win. Democrats have a lot of work to do, but everything I've seen shows they're serious about it, at least. Some things are going to naturally work against them, which makes me think Democrats are going to have it hard for a while; I don't think a lot of people have connected the type of people who are moving here nowadays are more Republican than they used to be. It's not even necessarily all about DeSantis and COVID; retirees nowadays are more Republican, and old people vote more. These people moving here -- well-off white people with money who can afford to move, by and large -- were younger people when Reagan was president during their formative years. Back in the day, many of those old folks moving here were more Democratic. So you have more old people who are reliable voters moving to Florida, and they're more Republican. That's a big deal. But you also have to look at the fact that political party doesn't necessarily determine what you believe. What have voters backed in direct-democracy initiatives by 60+ percent? $15 minimum wage, giving ex-felons the right to vote, and medical marijuana. I fully believe abortion would be very competitive statewide. Add to that more Democrats running for office to get more people to the polls, and 2024 could, at the very least, help rebuild the Democratic Party in Florida. Democrats don't have to swing the state nationally, but they could very well scare some complacent Republicans who truly believe the state is theirs. If you get turnout among Democrats higher, which an abortion amendment would do, that automatically would help reverse some of their losses from 2022. And Florida and Texas, unfortunately, are the two best pickup opportunities in the Senate for Democrats next year; they need to invest in this state, full-stop. tl;dr: I don't think it's likely Dems win Florida in 2024, but they still need to invest as if they can because they need to rebuild, they need to tell people what they stand for, including and especially the right to your body, and writing off a state as big as this won't help Democrats at all, especially with so few options in the Senate in 2024.
  16. His approval ratings have tanked since last year: Ron DeSantis' popularity compared to other governors is abysmal WWW.NEWSWEEK.COM Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is ranked second in a list of governors with the highest disapproval ratings in their states. Turns out when it's hard to afford to live here, people sour on you when you could actually do something about it as governor.
  17. And the Inflation Reduction Act, with the caveat that it should have been bigger if it weren't for him. But him being in the Senate did allow us to even tackle a huge climate and health care bill like that.
