'One Piece' review: Netflix does the impossible
  • If they've managed to make a decent live action adaptation of any Japanese media I'm impressed for them. Cowboy Bebop, the Resident Evil tv series come to mind as their mos trecent failings. I think One Pieces kind of cartooniness is something that can be adapted in live action so its good to see them actually do it.

  • Chinese zoo denies its bears are humans in costume
  • These are very short and small bears. They stand upright an average of 5ft tall, which amongst bears is short enough. Keep in mind even a black bear, another considred small bear, can reach up to over 6ft, 1.82m, tall. Grizzlies and Polar Bears are well over the 8ft, 2.43m, range standing upright. The weight differences are also massive. Their relative size similar peer in the Black Bear is anywhere from 60kg 5o 300kg, or 132-661 pounds. Meanwhile a sunbear is around 27-63kg, 59-143lbs.

    With such a lithe bear it creates this oddly human look to them when they stand upright.

  • Baldur's Gate 3 Megathread
  • It's absolutely nothing like most CRPGS but play Disco Elysium if you get the opportunity. I've dabbled in plenty of CRPGS in my time but this one was a masterpiece and revitalised my love fo rthe genre.

    Owlcat's works are also worth looking into. They are amongst the most honest adaptation of ttrpg system to a computer game. Bonus if you prefer Pathfinder to DnD. I am salivating over the 40k Rogue Trader they are making.

  • What do you think is responsible for lemmy’s growth over other alternatives like KBin and Tildes?
  • Kbin already is, it was very much a side project by Ernest that was no where near as mature as Lemmy. As it stands it is growing extremely fast, proportionally it is way more active and grows faster than Lemmy itself. Kbin.social iirc is neck and neck with Lemmy World.

  • BattleBit Remastered is good fun but anti-cheat for Steam Deck & Linux is concerning
  • It has similarities, but it's very clearly a child of Squad imo; The focus on team cohesion, squad based tactics and the low ttk all say so. The level designer was a Squad fan themself. The fact it's working on a mil-sim mode is funny to me, because it's already pretty squad like so I am interested in how much more they cna do with it.

    R.I.P. Nitter 🪦😭 · Issue #919 · zedeus/nitter
  • Some of the forks still work but due to the current rate limitations they cannot be used. I am giving it some time, as I have a feeling this twitter stuff might resolve on its own. I am not awfully dependent on Twitter regardless so even if nitter is done permanently it's no big lost. We are currently posting on the Fediverse, which has its own alternative in Mastodon.

  • Indiana Jones and Flash flopped hard. Could this be the beginning of the end for franchise films?
  • Maybe, I honestly love going to the movies but it seems the age of the generic blockbuster is done really. It's nearly all sequels or franchises. I want to wathc something not particulary groundbreaking but still interesting and not need to watch it's five previous movies.

    The last movie I felt scratched that itch for me was the DnD movie which was relatively detached. I like movies like that and I wish there were more. Don't get me wrong I like a good franchise but when everything is a franchise it's maddening.

  • Fediverse won't replace Reddit as long as Lemmy is the main platform being promoted
  • You're being downvoted because people don't understand you're not talking about "far left" like some Trumper. You mean literal tankies, which absolutely yes some of the Lemmy Devs are as well as Lemmy.ml. It's also a reason I selected Kbin.
