I’m sure that the younger generations were complaining right before the fall of room too, they needed to get over it, what a bunch of losers.

Butter is the most flexible way to have THC in your cooking arsenal was my point.
- Comment on Anon makes weed eggs 3 days ago:
As far as im aware the leaf floating around does nothing, any thc inside of it cant be digested properly as it hasnt combined with a lipid, but im also not a weed smoker so im the least qualified to talk on this, shit gives me anxiety lol
- Comment on Anon makes weed eggs 4 days ago:
Your correct, that’s why if you wanna make weed food, you just make weed butter and use it where you want. fry egg in butter sear steak in butter butter in coffee blt w/ bacon cooked in butter, or buttered toast as bread, or both endless options
- Comment on I hate when a PC game is ONLY available on Epic Games store 2 weeks ago:
I wonder how much Epic games makes at the end of the day. So most companies that do stuff like this operate at a huge loss, functioning only through investment capital until they starve out their competition and become the head of a monopoly at which point their investors become even more pointlessly wealthy. However I believe this works so often because those competitors are also operating off of investor capital and eventually their investors decide to sell out and switch teams to get some of their investment back. How does this work with Valve? Unlike companies previously discussed Valve is a privately held company and has control over their own company, on top of the fact they are currently the leader in online game sales, I’m unsure how epic can justify, what i would assume, is a huge sum of money constantly paying for exclusives. Maybe im wrong and the pie is so large Epic is currently operating financially soundly. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Regardless we should all be happy that this market is not a clear cut monopoly, competition is a consumer win.

Oh I see, its only for a static page. This makes so much more sense.
I can see why you mentioned this feature fits weird with react, and I have to agree, its contradictory to the entire purpose of React lol.
- Comment on Google now requires JavaScript 2 months ago:
So you’re offloading the JS processing onto the server? I cant be understanding this correctly because there is no way anyone wants to pay for the serverside cost of something that used to be an end user “cost”. Also this would add interaction latency.
- Comment on Google now requires JavaScript 2 months ago:
That is insane! I’m wondering how they handle modifying the DOM w/ out JS, did HTML 5 get a significant update? I gotta look into this because that sound super interesting.
- Comment on Google now requires JavaScript 2 months ago:
It wasn’t required, but id wager 99% of website that exist currently run JS in some form or another for something. Id wager its impossible to have anything dynamic on a webpage without JS (minus visual dynamics which can be handled with css), at that point you have to replace it with a different programming language and every browser needs to completely change gears to allow other code to run instead. But what advantage is gained by changing to another programming language? Cleaner code w/ less jankyness? Sure I guess, but we would be moving mountains to accomplish a silly thing.
I’m wondering if many people in this thread understand what JS is and does.
- Comment on Google now requires JavaScript 2 months ago:
I don’t know how to tell you this, but removing JS doesn’t turn the internet into a wonderland. Capitalism is to blame for enshitification not JS
- Comment on Google now requires JavaScript 2 months ago:
All of the people replying to this saying you shouldn’t need JS are totally unaware how modern web development works.
Yes, you could do many sites without JS, but the entire workforce for web development is trained with JS framework. To do otherwise would slow development time down significantly, not allow for certain functionality to exist (functionality you would 100% be unhappy was missing).
Its not a question of possibility, its a question of feasibility.
- Comment on I love diablo-likes, but they're also really annoying. 2 months ago:
Yeah at that point it kind of morphs genre from dungeon grinder to isometric action. That being said I think isometric action is a way better game type due to the level of involvement and a challenge that’s skill based; whereas I find dungeon grinders to boring from overly simplistic controls and gameplay loops.
That being said I am tired of so many game just giving you 3 real buttons, but this is the problem with making games to make money, if you want to market broad you have to keep it simple.
Behind every problem in life lies capitalisms ugly asshole.

Because when everyone except the upper classes is financially insecure you would be willing to do anything at a chance to not be, including giving away your labor for free for a chance of a paycheck maybe.

- Comment on Steam Summer Sale - Top Deals 5 months ago:
I wouldn’t say it’s a manipulation, the game is far beyond the original game at this point. I’m surprised it’s even on sale ATM. It’s an amazing game.
- Comment on Steam Summer Sale - Top Deals 5 months ago:
They’re also planning on raising the full price shortly to $40, most likely with the launch of 1.0 the next update coming soon. Amazing game!
- Comment on Doom: The Dark Ages is introducing big changes to combat because id Software came to one core realization: "Every projectile mattered in the original Doom" 6 months ago:
That isn’t the point. The point is you shouldn’t feel shoehorned into playing a specific intended route. Doom is about turning off your brain and slaying.

Who has time to play the thousand games they made that convoluted the storyline just to make sure they could keep making kingdom hearts.

Never, at this point half life 3 failing would do more damage to the steam sales platform than half life 3 succeeding could make in a million years
- Comment on The Fallout TV show’s popularity has blown up Nexus Mods as everyone rushes to play Fallout 4 again 7 months ago:
Why 4 though?! better gameplay sure, but holy shit does the story telling suffer, and what is the point of fallout if not for storytelling.
- Comment on A bad influence 8 months ago:
Honestly though, its not the developers fault. 100% they are being told what to prioritize working on, and I’m certain its exclusively business facing improvements. Microsoft only cares about making the package of features they provide look sexy to the people who would be pulling the trigger on bringing Teams to their office, not the people who actually have to use it.
Sadly this is just the way capitalism works, short term thinking, sacrifice the product for the sales, and then 5 years down the road wonder where it all went wrong; or monopolize the market and pay congress to pull the ladder up behind you.

Idk about you guys, but I will wait until they’ve patched out the game breaking bugs and system compatibility issues. And then I’ll pay them 17$ for 1 month of their game service, beat the game, and cancel the sub.
