I was going to suggest banana milk for the extra calcium but sure, you do you. 😉
- Comment on That funny feeling 1 week ago:
Bananas should also work. And magnesium, which is easy to supplement.

But you can’t kiss a duck on the lips from the word go. Just ask Neil Degrasse Tyson.

You know what doesn’t take effort? Writing stupid list like that for other people to follow.

No! It’s the females’ fault that men are feeling bad about themselves, didn’t you know?

French scholars are famous for their mastery of obscurantism. That’s what this is called.

Oh, oh, and: the volume setting for background music only applies once you load into a level so you get blasted with loud music while you wait.
- Comment on Ok so coffee is made from coffee beans. And beans are *also* made from beans. Why is nobody making, like, black bean coffee? 2 months ago:
ITT: Because it would be Image and possibly poisonous.

Lucas Pope is a genius.
- Comment on Funny bad games reviews 3 months ago:
I (occasionally) like the frantic style of Ben “Yahtzee” Croshaw’s Zero Punctuation game reviews. Together with the wacky animations, they’re quite something.
- Comment on Good game soundtracks? 3 months ago:
My favorite soundtrack ever, of course, is that of The Secret of Monkey Island (MT-32) by Michael Land. A lot of nostalgia there.
I also very much like the soundtrack to Dune by Stephane Picq. There’s an edition that combines the Adlib, Adlib Gold, and MT-32 versions which is “chef’s kiss”. Alternatively, I can recommend the Space Opera edition.
Strike Commander by Nenad Vugrinec on MT-32 is also great.
For chiptunes, I really liked Penny Arcade’s On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness 3 by Alex Mauer.
Or, for a real classic, Earthbound by Keiichi Suzuki and Hirokazu Tanaka.
Yes, I have a bit of a thing for retro sounds. 😁

Hello, old friend.
- Comment on Why do many search engines seem to ignore operators (e.g. exact phrases, term exclusions, OR, etc.)? Is there a good reason for having a dumb 1997-level search logic that I'm not seeing? 4 months ago:
Guys, please. The solution to Google reinterpreting your search queries has been around for years, and it is called VERBATIM SEARCH. (Search options: All results -> Verbatim). Voila, welcome back to 1997.

I treated every undergrad paper like a dissertation. Didn’t work out all that well. My grades were excellent, though.

Cognitive function impaired by increased crayon intake.
- Comment on The Peasant Life 1 year ago:
There’s a growing amount of people (sic) who are unaware of the difference between countable and uncountable nouns. Just watch any YouTube video that happens to involve quantities of any kind. “Amount” has become the standard term. And it’s similar with “less”.
