My understanding of the Sony deal is that they have the film distribution rights to everything Spider-Man related that isn’t already in the MCU. Thus their push for making the spider villain movies, so they can maintain those rights. Since Andrew Garfield Spider-Man is in an MCU movie that takes him off the table

Sure, but to regular switch owners the idea of going to some “sketchy” website, downloading an emulator, loading in a rom and starting is very intimidating. Not to mention it’s questionably legal even according to people in the scene and so the average person probably doesn’t want to fuck with that. We’re lemmy users, we are not who Nintendo caters to

Look, I was in a room with only a door and a window. I had some evidence that needed to be disposed of before the rest of the group opened the door. It was the best solution I had in a short period of time

That’s my point about civility. I think you can have the conversations, but almost every parent I know says that their children are their greatest achievement and that they are the best part of their life. You’re inviting people in who fundamentally disagree with that and a lot of people take it pretty personally when you call the most important thing in their life a moral failure. I just don’t imagine /c/parenting users come here to be lambasted and I doubt it’s good for growing the community as well

As a child free person myself I don’t think you want to invite that here. Not to say it’d be uncivil but some of our reasons for not having children will be inherently offensive to people here and I don’t think it’d be good for the general vibe. Just an example, I’m not certain I’m going to live the rest of my life free of major strife (the global rise of fascism, climate change disasters, globe trotting plagues, etc) and I think it’s morally irresponsible to bring a child into the world. Are those conversations that you want to have here or do you want to talk about the difficulties of raising kids, the surprising joys, and the unexpected milestones?

I agree with Iger that this probably will be the biggest MCU movie in a long time. However I’d argue that’s in spite of the MCU not because of it. They’re simultaneously cashing in on Deadpool hype and bringing the primary X-Man into the MCU. Obviously we don’t know what direction it’s going to to go in until the movie comes out but I have a hard time imagining that if it tries to merge into the “main” MCU world that it’d make sense tonally. If it fucks off into the weird “multiverse” stuff that Dr Strange, Loki, and Wanda seem to be doing I have to guess subsequent stuff will be more nothingburgers that people are apathetic about

I personally think people liked Deadpool being mostly it’s own thing. I think keeping him only tangentially involved is going to be the key to success but I doubt Disney’s ability to be restrained enough to do that

I love when people casually throw out numbers like “227 countries” because I just know somewhere someone is very upset about the implications of that statement

Please don’t. This subreddit exists to repost content and it does it by referencing a show older than most of its users. We don’t need to bring this low quality content to lemmy

Lasagna is pretty universally agreed to be better as a leftover. Non-pasta soups are usually better too. I have a sausage, potatoes and pepper hash I make that is mostly a excuse to have it with a fried egg as breakfast in the morning

I mean the joke was right there: “I’d like to cast Mom everyone likes to fuck’s acid arrow”

I’m curious what the market for a a bright and cheery souls-like game is. On one hand it seems like people really like the dark and oppressive atmosphere of those games but on the other all of the best ones are made by fromsoft and that’s just their MO. Lies of P had some success and it was walking that line. I guess we’ll have to see how this does

I’ve seen both The Symphony of the Goddess (Zelda) and Distant Worlds (Final Fantasy) live and both were excellent. This should be a treat for people who like this music

As a Scrum Master myself this isn’t a question anyone outside of your work flow can answer. I’ve worked at organizations where we expected people to complete 8 points of work per sprint, and some where we expected people to do 30. Additionally, from a pure philosophy stand point, points measure complexity/uncertainty not time needed to complete the task. As such, you should be both reducing the average number of points per feature and increasing your average velocity over time.

OK, semantics aside, here’s some useful advice: jira has free accounts for individuals (check with their licenses before you sell any work) and is obviously built for software development. You can also install addons like Clone Plus that will let you clone epics and the stories within them. I’d recommend making a shell epic that contains the maximum amount of work a project would take, then appropriately size, sequence, and relate all stories to each other. After you have that template epic you can clone it and all the relevant stories underneath, then using Jira dashboards put them in the order they need to be done and use your estimated weekly velocity to see what you can do. Then you’ll have a list of tasks, how many points they total, and a rough timeline of story delivery
