Soooo I just finished Shane Black's The Predator and... I don't understand what everyone's issues were with this movie. It's a fine Predator flick. Funny, and full of action. Pretty good expansion of the lore. I enjoyed it a bunch.

 Thu Dec 06 06:40:33 +0000 2018

It's not as stylistically different as Predator 2 was, and it doesn't beat you over the head with the original flick as Predators did. It's a fine third sequel.

 Thu Dec 06 06:44:51 +0000 2018

And using themes from Alan Silverstri's score from the first flick was a nice touch. Not just for cheap references, because the score fit everything very well.

 Thu Dec 06 06:46:31 +0000 2018

And despite every one of Shane Black directed movies besides Iron Man 3 being a flop, I really hope he keeps making more.

Flashback isn't actually a vector polygon based game, but at least its cutscenes were. I don't quite understand why they just slapped a terrible filter (not shown here) on them instead of re-rendering them at higher resolution like in Another World updates. https://x.com/dosnostalgic/status/1072687305390022656

 Wed Dec 12 16:26:55 +0000 2018

Unlike Another World flashback cutscenes are actually really low res: 240x128. Hell, even the game itself is rather low res. That's because its primary target platform during development was the Megadrive/Genesis. And that's why the game itself isn't vector.

 Wed Dec 12 16:31:43 +0000 2018

I'm assuming lots of things, but neither of these two would be a factor in this case.

I see a very common thing among immigrants: people stick to so much to their own communities & culture, they struggle to understand English when after years of being here.

 Mon Dec 17 01:19:20 +0000 2018

I think instead of pushing classes and all that other stuff on people (Also important, although it wasn't in my case) other immigrants should encourage people to submerge themselves into a foreign language as much as possible.

 Mon Dec 17 01:21:16 +0000 2018

That doesn't mean you have to abandon your family, or your culture. Sticking to what you know can be very comforting when you're in a situation when everything around you is different and somewhat alien.

 Mon Dec 17 01:22:24 +0000 2018

But sticking to it too much can certainly be harmful in a long run. And it doesn't really have to be this way. Watching American films and listening to pop music is how I managed to get my English to some slightly usable level shortly after moving to the States.

 Mon Dec 17 01:25:32 +0000 2018

In my particular case I would just walk to the library (about 2 miles, so it wasn't all that close) once a week, and check out as many tapes & DVDs as I was allowed, and then I'd watch them throughout the week. Helped with US pop culture knowledge too, but that wasn't the point.

Haven't played the Win95 version, but DOS version I'm pretty sure has things Amiga version doesn't, even though it has most of the changes made for the Amiga version.

 Wed Dec 19 18:35:04 +0000 2018

Ok, so it has MIDI music, and it gained a little bit of speed, but this looks identical to the DOS version otherwise. Even still cropped in the same way (making it harder to see the knife jugglers before they attack you)

 Wed Dec 19 18:48:30 +0000 2018

Yeah, it's capped, and it plays slower in general too, but otherwise it's not that bad.

 Wed Dec 26 07:36:17 +0000 2018

Got myself an Xmas gift in a form of a latest Mission: Impossible film. It's funny how this franchise was essentially rebooted with the 3rd film, and has been staying consistently strong since then.

 Wed Dec 26 07:38:42 +0000 2018

The helicopter chase looked amazing. I wonder how much of it was actually real.

 Wed Dec 26 07:39:25 +0000 2018

But I think that the strongest emotional scene in the franchise was still in the last movie. When Benji has to deliver the villain's message with a bomb strapped to him. Simon Pegg can really fucking act.

NES Mini is cute, but I literally had to have it unlocked 5 minutes after I got it because, come on, what kind of a NES is it without CONTRA?

 Thu Dec 27 22:43:56 +0000 2018

Then, of course, I had to get the Japanese version because it has animated backgrounds & shit, but it's not supported by Nintendo's own emulator, so I had to get RetroArch on there, and by that point is was already half way down the rabbit hole.
