  • My preferred 3D viewing method is in VR because you get full side-by-side 3d (1920x1080 resolution video per eye) and AFAIK this isn’t supported on most screens/projectors. You have to build/acquire f-sbs videos yourself (I’ve made most of my own and while the actual process is easy there is learning involved), but it’s greatly bolstered my affinity towards 3D content.

    Avatar 2 is, unsurprisingly, the most technically impressive fsbs content I’ve watched, but I’ve enjoyed most of the 3D movies I’ve watched this way.








  • Actions are more important than words. The U.S. is going out of its way to expedite the artillery needed to continue Israel’s indiscriminate bombing of civillians in its ongoing genocidal campaign against Palestinians.

    Please I am begging you do not take these organizations at face value- read what the poster above you sent and recognize the distance between the statement “You need to comply with international law more closely” and the action: here is a way for us to get you bombs for you to use more quickly.

    If on one hand part of the state apparatus is signaling for “restraint” but the state is accelerating its ability to provide weapons that its calling for restraint in use of the actual stance is clear: what you’re doing is fine by the state.




  • A couple of options worth knowing about since I don’t know/own the games:

    1. A DRM free version looks like it’s available at GOG. This is probably the simplest solution to not have to worry about any potential issues
    2. People seem to be reporting that the Steam version can be launched directly from the executable bypassing the launcher. If there is a Steamworks DRM check you could always use Goldberg’s steam emulator to get around that for fully offline play.




  • Some things that would make me consider it:

    • Free high quality lunches every day
    • Transportation compensation in the form of both work time (if the office is poorly located) and monetary compensation for transportation expenses
    • Management improvement plan with actions they’re taking/implementing to reduce the time they’re wasting of laborers on a day-to-day basis
    • Alteration of the company structure to force a large percentage (simple majority) of ownership to workers to push back against reactionary and profit-driven anti-labor whims of shareholders
    • Services/compensation that complete tasks that previously I could do during downtime at home
    • Yearly inflation-pegged CoL raises that apply to every laborer in the company before salary raises are made
    • Massive investment in in-office employee training programs in the form of role-based training that is chosen by laborers in that particular role/function

    If every single one of these things were implemented I would then still probably leave the place for another WFH job if we didn’t use our new ownership powers to revert back to WFH immediately.
