I probably sunk at least that much into D2 (and more) but just fell out of love with D4 so quickly. It felt so repetitive and dull.

Technology@lemmy.world•Nintendo Confirms EU‑Only Switch 2 Revision With User‑Replaceable BatteriesEnglish
49·3 months agoI thought EU legislation would make better stuff in the EU and it has.
I watched it just the other night but similarly haven’t watched it in years (but when I did I binged it a lot). I’m just going to go ahead and link his segment for anyone curious.
The message still hits home just as hard today, even if the guy delivering it is… well… “pretty hard to root for”.
Sorry to give you a cliché/unhelpful answer but; the movie plot is sort of a character dreaming, or rather, being stuck in a dream unable to wake up. He floats through the city meeting people he both does and doesn’t know and listens to their “bit”.
Some of it is absurdists while other parts are really insightful. I’m unsure if you watched the video I linked but it starts with one of my favourite quotes from the film;
‘They say that dreams are only real as long as they last. Couldn’t you say the same thing about life?’
If you get the chance and haven’t seen it I’d really recommend it. If you enjoy the rotoscoped animation but want a more “grounded” story A Scanner Darkly is also worth checking out.
I did!
I’m almost embarrassed to say his ‘bit’ really struck a chord. I definitely don’t support him as a person, but the message his character delivered back then still rings surprisingly true to this very today.
Super perfundo on the early eve of your day!
Wow, hot take OP…
“Waking Life ~ Dreams vs. Reality”

Very interesting clip (from one of my favourite movies) about why dreams seem so “real”.
(TLDW / Quote: to the functional system of neural activity that creates our world, there is no difference between dreaming a perception and an action and actually the waking perception and action).



I’m old enough to remember Courage with great fondness but the rest was news to me. Appreciate you, boo. Have a good weekend.
