- Comment on Borderlands 4 narrative director hints at dialling back the toilet humour – WGB 4 days ago:
I don’t remember a lot of toilet humor in B1, B2 or BTPS, it was a very childish humor with SOME toilet humor, I think just moving back to the sarcastic/frustrated slightly immature humor of B2 would do wonders for the series.
- Comment on Borderlands 4 narrative director hints at dialling back the toilet humour – WGB 4 days ago:
I have basically just played through B3 after grinding B1, B2 and BTPS, and the humour takes an absolute nosedive in B3.
Also B3’s UI is terrible
- Comment on Borderlands 4 narrative director hints at dialling back the toilet humour – WGB 4 days ago:
Borderlands 1 was a bit too slow both with the gameplay and the humor, this is obviously understandable due to it being the first game.
Borderlands 2 had humor that was really, really perfectly on the edge, the story was a classic freedom fighter story set in a bizarre sarcastic universe.
Borderlands TPS kept going with the same type of humor that B2 had but added a lot of fun backstory to Jack and the loaders/constructors.
Borderlands 3 took it too far with the toilet humor, and the whole social media storyline. At times it felt as if I was acting out a scene rather than playing a hero. Oh and I absolutely hated Vaughn.

Luckily waste storage is a solved peoblem.
Drill hole in bedrock, put waste in hole, backfill with clay.

Most of our power generations comes from “make water hot, hot water boils into steam, steam spins magnet”
Nuclear power is just a different source of heat.

If you have an iPhone, you can see two tiny torx screws on the bottom by the lightning/USB-C port

Torx.

I have never seen a crosshead screw cut out to the edges…
- Comment on What do people (as in, IRL) actually think of the [alleged] perpetrator involved in the NYC shooting? 1 week ago:
This would not have happened if company leaders implemented a “don’t be a dick” style of operation.
They would have made a bit less money, sure, but at the level they operate at, they are just working the highscore anyway, so earnings are effectively meaningless to them, their standard of living won’t increase much by exploiting their customer even further.

Just look at the JFK and Olof Palme investigations for your answer.
Summary:
Decades are spent running investigations, complex conspiracy theories appear, society moves on.
- Comment on When you die, what do you want to be done with you? 2 weeks ago:
Donate my body to science if possible, failing that, dispose of me in the most environmentally friendly way possible.
Once I am dead I have no care for my body, maximize the use of it or minimize the impact of it.
- Comment on Silent but Deadly: I met some of my closest friends through multiplayer games. Then a strange happening turned everyone (literally) speechless. 2 weeks ago:
To be honest, I don’t really see why the developers/publishers should run the actual mutiplayer servers.
They should only run the master server that lists the multiplayer servers in the server browser.
I am no huge fan of Epic, but they deserve all credit for running the master server for Unreal Tournament 2004 multiplayer for almost two decades.
And when it shut down, fans had made their own master server that was ready before the main server went down, you just had to modify the ut2004.ini file with the new master server and it just worked.
It felt more like Epic passed the torch than shut down a service.

Any smart feature must be optional.
I have smart lights at home, none is required to get light in the rooms, they are only used for mood lighting.

- Comment on Anon plays pretend 4 weeks ago:
I have thought about showing off my gigantic single player creative mode Minecraft map through a live stream for years, I spent most of my free time over a decade of manually just building huge, huge structures.
And pretending to show it off to a live stream, talking about it and explaining it makes it easier to remember what/why/how I built stuff…

Yeah, I know I just thought it would be a dun thought experiment
- Comment on Do the ultra-rich consume popular media? 5 weeks ago:
Just imagine Biden watching PewDiePie…
Obama seems like a guy who’d watch Calum, Peter Dibble, and Wendover Productions, combined with other channels as well.
GWB jr probably watch war documentaries, with somw general interest documentaries scattered in his watch history.
Clinton seems like he would enjoy music performances and travel videos.
GWB sr, no idea…
Raegan, interviews with actors, republicans and millitary men, he probably enjoys the PeninsulaSrsVideos channel.
Carter, if he was younger, would be making science/educational videos, but probably enjoy good science/history content, he’d probably be a fan of Calum, Peter Dibble and Wendover Productions.
- Comment on Do the ultra-rich consume popular media? 5 weeks ago:
I doubt they are skipping out on popular media, they probably even watch similar Youtube channels like you do if they happen to share your interests.

With a reaction like that I suspect there was some other indicators as well.
I know I have a bit of an addictive personality, I actively refuse gambling since I know I can get caught up in it.
I did open the package up, I wanted to see the mythical pills, but I felt uncomfortable with the package being unsealed and wanted a bigger barrier to have to pass through if I wanted the pills. So I resealed the pack with tape and have had no issues since.
As for right now, they are only for when I am in so much pain that I can’t do anything useful.
None in my family has ever asked about it other than to check up on me when I first got it, I live alone so it is a valid concern.
I got it back in 2020/2021 and it remains resealed and unused.
