The other night my wife suggested we watch this and I'd vaguely heard of it, but not its reputation, so we did watch it since an anthology would be fun! We made it maybe 40% through until I realized it was so bad that I had to stop. They just don't know when a joke stops being funny, and most of the skits are barely funny to begin with.

If they cut most of those skits down by probably half, the movie would be awkwardly short, but it would at least flow better, and you'd be able to move onto something else if you weren't liking the current skit much, but as it is, it's a mediocre slog that has a bafflingly star studded cast.

It's just far too juvenile and long in the tooth, and I have nothing against juvenile humor, but man, I just couldn't get much out of it.

I got into Balatro finally, and holy fuck, it really is great. I wanted a turn based roguelike since I realized I didn't have many of those, and I knew it'd be good, but it's hard to find something I don't like about the game.

It looks good, the interface is good, the music is an awesome ever changing single chill song, it's turn based so you can think about your decisions, but if your build is strong you can play pretty quick too. There are tons of build options and unlocks.

There is a nice balance between playing hands and altering your build between rounds, I like that the money economy is low in number, similar to darkest dungeon and its low number damage stats even single digits matter. Learning the game and starting runs you begin to establish a build that you can add synergy to incredibly quickly. I just struggle to find anything bad to say about it.

Maybe, PowerAmp was the first one I tried after I got off the dedicated MP3 player lifestyle, so coming from iPod classics or cheaper Fiio and Sansa players I was seriously lacking for features like that.

All I know is that PowerAmp does almost everything I could want it to and I never wanted for much more or needed to try other options after I tried it the first time

Seconding PowerAmp. Tons of features, something I loved about Spotify that PowerAmp has, you can queue songs and do things like "play next" so that it inserts songs into your queue.

You can also see what song is going to play next, though I still deeply desire a mobile version of the Winamp feature where you can see the entire list of how the songs are shuffled and everything that's coming up

They just thought they were funny because you said "players" and they purposefully misconstrued it for internet high fives

No, they were correct, the OP commenter should not have turned Ronald Reagan's last name into a state capitol.

There isn't a DS emulator on switch, so of course they didn't do explorers, even though it is probably the better game.

I also strongly prefer the pixel art of rescue team and explorers before the series went 3D and I still prefer the pixel art to the remake, even though the remake does have a nice style.

Thats relatively tame, he's done more ridiculous stuff than that, but it is creative and funny in an "industry" where most streamers just play a game straightforwardly and don't "cut loose" in quite the same way. I'm just habitually hyperbolic.

I also don't want to spoil the best things he's done, half the fun of watching Jerma is discovering those things.

He's a fantastic video game streamer. Very charismatic, genuine, and funny. I think one of the things that makes him special is he'll do ridiculous things for a joke. If he thinks of a funny idea on the fly, sometimes he'll basically stop playing whatever game he was supposed to be streaming, and just do something else stupid instead.

For example, one time he performed a "magic trick" by unplugging his modem and then plugging it back in, using the time in between when the stream was frozen to run out of the room, making it look like he "disappeared". He would do insane, hilarious stuff like that regularly, it wasn't like he had special streams where he did things like that, he did them all the time.

Of course he ALSO did special streams where he went even further, such as the "doll house" stream where he had a whole set made up like a fake house and basically became a Sims character with needs bars and everything. He's a really special guy, and you could spend all day listing all of his amazing feats. He perfectly walks the line between being actually stupid in a funny way, and playing it up as a character, it's convincing enough that it all just becomes "Jerma", but he is also a genuinely good guy.

Specifically because it's convincing. You may just assume everything is fake, that doesn't mean everyone will. You may not care about seeing someone's imperceptibly realistic nude, but if it's depicting them they may care, and they deserve the right for people not to see them like that.

Just because it's not logistically feasible to prevent convincing AI nudes from spreading around doesn't make it ethical

On Android:

Godville is 24 MB, a zero player game where you create an adventurer who goes out and quests, collects loot and equipment, rests at town to sell things, tames a pet, joins a guild, etc. you can influence what they do, but they do it all automatically and you can just observe!

Impossible Dungeon is 35 MB, idle non turn based dungeon crawler with incremental upgrades, I really like it!

Not sure what you consider low MB, I couldn't find any more that I'd heavily recommend at 150 MB so I cut it off there
