Now they're interesting, but the REAL star of the show is one of his villains, John Doe the Generic Man, who's this guy in a stark white suit with flat pink unshaded, untextured skin with no features or anything who talks like chatGPT and has black text over his face that explains what he's feeling at the moment. That guy is fucking fascinating.

So I was shown a video in a Discord sever the other day, of dinosaurs taking the place of Lion King. And part of me went "Well, Hamlet with Dinosaurs would catch my attention more than Hamlet with Lions" and now I'm sitting here thinking what other Shakespeare plays would be fun to tell/retell in a naturalistic angle with dinosaurs. And I gotta like share some of these before it keeps me up all night.

King Lear with the perspective of a male Stegosaurus who's been taking care of his hatchlings now grown, and the fracturing bonds and trauma from the Morrison

Othello told through the perspective of a loyal ceratopsian herd of some variety fracturing under the rule of a older bull. (Centrosaurus is my go to for this, but any would work in theory)

Midsummer's Night Dream but set in the Dinosaur Park Formation or the Yixian formation to play with the variety of species for the different groups. (This is the most flexible of the much)

Richard the 3rd but told as a story in the lands of Mid Cretaceous Africa, and the rise of a Carcharodontosaurus although any of the big lads could do)

The Tempest, mostly to have small dinosaurs and an almost magical sense with it making it needing to be the Hatzeg Island fauna (Caliban being a massive pterosaur is just too funny not to do)

"Uhh, I don't think they like each other very much, Nick." "What makes you say that?" "Oh, you know. The biting."

Godzilla Junior, defender of New York City, vs Champ, the beast of Lake Champlain.

"Smooth edges of screen fonts"

My computer was running hot before I turned everything off; the office I'm in is very warm, I could feel the heat of my CPU through the keyboard. The fans were going, not as loud as they usually get, but they were still blasting.

Y'all.

I can barely feel the warmth through the keyboard now. It's been like 2 minutes. The fan is nearly silent.

Click the Windows key and start typing "System settings", and "View Advanced system settings" will pop up. Then click "Settings" under Performance:

Then you'll see this:

TURN IT ALL OFF.

10AppsManager lets you uninstall bloatware. Winaero Tweaker lets you disable crap like Cortana/Copilot, ads, telemetry, internet search results when you search from the taskbar, and all kinds of other stuff, plus it gives you lots of other little options that are just nice to have (like, it can restore the old MS Paint program in place of Paint 3D). Both are totally free.

Oh, and check your startup programs in the Task Manager tab to make sure your computer isn't automatically starting eight million programs every time it boots. But I think people mostly know about that. (Unless this is me going "they only know one or two feldspars... and quartz of course.")
