The world’s largest direct carbon capture plant just went online in c/climate@slrpnk.net
[–] finthechat@kbin.social 2 points 4 months ago (2 children)

The company’s previous record-holding carbon capture plant, Orca, sucks around 4,000 tons of CO2 from the atmosphere per year, but the new plant can handle nearly ten times that, as reported by The Washington Post.

The plant’s called Mammoth and boasts 72 industrial fans that can pull 36,000 tons of CO2 from the air each year.

Ackshulaaly that's not nearly 10 times, that's exactly 9 times

Star Wars Trilogy Video cassettes 1995 in c/nostalgia@lemmy.ca

I can't believe Star Wars ended after Return of the Jedi. George Lucas could have made a fortune if he'd produced a prequel trilogy, or a sequel trilogy, or made a lot of TV spinoffs.

Helldivers 2 Steam page reviews are now "Mostly negative" with "mixed" overall (old reviews are switching too) in c/pcgaming@lemmy.ca
The idea that the Manor Lords dev should 'just hire 50 people' to update it faster is 'fundamentally not the way things work,' says publisher in c/games@sh.itjust.works
[–] finthechat@kbin.social 8 points 5 months ago

Yeah for real, whoever said that is such an idiot. If he hired 5000 people instead they could get the work done 100 times faster.

Fallout London's project lead is not taking the surprise drop of Fallout 4's update well: 'That has, for a lack of a better term, screwed us over' in c/games@sh.itjust.works

Bethesda was under no obligation to talk to these mod devs beforehand. But it sure makes them look bad. As a recent comparable, Concerned Ape was open and communicative with all the mod devs before releasing his latest patch for Stardew Valley, a game that is just about as old as Fallout 4.

Bethesda has become a literal laughingstock at this point in time and it's just funny to point at them every time they rack up another L.

Rimworld's Anomaly DLC has now released. in c/pcgaming@lemmy.ca

There is no successor. There is just more DLC...

The Fallout show's been a pleasant surprise in c/gaming@beehaw.org
[–] finthechat@kbin.social 16 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Good: Nice special effects, nice wardrobes, nice sets, the ludicrous violence fits right in with the universe, and particularly the performances from the actors are very good. At least visually, it looks way better and the effects look way more convincing than 3 Body Problem, to use another recent show as a comparison.

Bad: apparently the show disregards New Vegas lore (personally idk I never played it), I think the editing is super bad, the story is average.

Easy headline to lol at, but this poor guy is fucked. He was doing it to earn a living, now he faces 5 years in jail and/or a $32k fine.

New ‘Matrix’ Movie In Works At Warner Bros From Drew Goddard in c/entertainment@beehaw.org

Me too. But after seeing that travesty of a 4th movie that they pooped out, my enthusiasm has cooled down a lot.

Nobody:

Warner Bros: here is another Matrix movie

Do any of you fine gentlepeople know of a good way to alert a person in VR that you want their attention? in c/AskKbin@kbin.social
[–] finthechat@kbin.social 3 points 6 months ago

A step up from this would be vibrating anal beads. You guys could practice morse code and have actual conversations with other, or practice cheating at chess or something

now that gog-games.to for all intents and purposes kicked the bucket, are there any other sites providing gog installers for direct download? in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

I didn't see a thread for this show yet. Sometimes Federation is iffy though. If there is already a post, I guess just delete this one.

The Fall of the House of Usher is the new Mike Flanagan horror miniseries on Netflix, here just on time for Halloween spooky stuff.

I just finished the show tonight and thought it was pretty good overall. Decent production (with the exception of digital green screen backgrounds everywhere), a solid ensemble cast, some surprisingly good monologues, some creepy scares, and a good enough ending. I went in not knowing anything about it except for its genre and was pleasantly surprised.

Edit: also Mark Hamill doing a voice for his role was a treat

What did you think?
