- Comment on Baby dies after California mom leaves him in car to get lip filler on 101-degree day, police say 30 minutes ago:
That’s the thing. We non-absent-minded people cannot relate to how absent-minded people can be. We do not understand.
- Comment on Baby dies after California mom leaves him in car to get lip filler on 101-degree day, police say 32 minutes ago:
I’ve been fucking tired as all hell, but a) I would not be driving a car with my child in it if I was so tired that I would forget I had a child. The fuck? That’s it. There’s no b). I would also fall asleep before I would forget I had a child. I cannot believe people really need a “trick” to help them remember they have a child. I just cannot relate.

It’s make-believe—it doesn’t need to make sense.

It’s been a wild ride!

Can confirm, I never stopped pirating for 20+ years.

I think the root comment is just memeing? But I see your point, it’s not funny. (Or it shouldn’t be.)
- Comment on Why don't Steam or Discord offer the option to hide when we're typing? 1 week ago:
I think the “typing” status is debounced to a few seconds only. You won’t appear to be typing if you stop actually typing. At least that’s how most messengers work that I use.
- Comment on Mario Kart World Faces Massive Backlash After Update, Online Racing Experience Ruined 1 week ago:
This was suggested in another repost of this article. It does really have that vibe, yes. It’s giving off this uncanny valley feeling of journalism. Lots of words, that… kinda say something?, but there’s a lot of like, overlap? I’m having a hard time explaining it.

Size I just watched the horror movie Smile the other day. This smile has the same vibe.

Ah, okay. Thank you for the link!
- Comment on Fan-made Mario Kart 64 PC port released, with track editor and ultrawide support 2 weeks ago:
It’s not that close. You were right about one thing, the front end of my couch is probably 5–6 ft away from the TV. But I crouched down at exactly 5 ft and the TV still has a smaller apparent size than my 27" LG OLED PC monitor is when I sit by the computer for gaming. I would turn down the FOV if I were you, to match the expected projection, but that’s just me. You can of course do what you feel is comfortable. But the distance argument doesn’t hold up is all I’m saying. 😁👍

Is this unusual? Games normally have different experiences besides spoken language?

360°C monitor setup
Better wear some oven mitts. 🔥
- Comment on Fan-made Mario Kart 64 PC port released, with track editor and ultrawide support 2 weeks ago:
I love the idea of having a 360° monitor and rear view mirrors instead of just smaller rear view screens, or even digital on-screen rear view mirrors. 😄
- Comment on Fan-made Mario Kart 64 PC port released, with track editor and ultrawide support 2 weeks ago:
You’d think it would be the opposite? High FOV when you are far away doesn’t match the expected projection of the things you see on screen. 5 ft is pretty normal I would say, I sit that far from my LG 65" OLED, too. I turn down my FOV in Rocket League so it doesn’t mess with my perception, even though you’d think a high FOV in that game would benefit you as you can avoid demolitions easier. (I do keep the FOV at max in Rocket League when in front of my PC though, because I’m so close to my monitor, probably 2 ft or so.)
- Comment on Day 340 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 2 weeks ago:
😁 I haven’t been interested in Mario Kart since around Mario Kart Wii (when I lost interest; MK64 forever! ❤️)
But I have to say, World looks super clean. Very slick animations and great music. That said, I don’t think I would get it for myself though. Possibly if my kids want it.
- Comment on Fan-made Mario Kart 64 PC port released, with track editor and ultrawide support 2 weeks ago:
Man, MK64 already had a pretty high FOV as it was, and now with ultra wide support lol

Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t Wario Stadium back in Mario Kart World?

Confirming, you get this even if you don’t have Edge installed. It will take you to the store page.
- Comment on New report suggests third-party Switch 2 game sales are "below estimates" 2 weeks ago:
Yup! 🙋♂️ I’m only here (having a Switch 2) for the frame rate bump (which I thought I’d get from buying the Switch 2019, or the Switch OLED), as well as the GameCube games and future Mario and Zelda games. Nothing else.

We have plenty to choose from here in Sweden, so not really an issue for us, but also not really helpful to you either. Sorry! 😬

I mean, what else is shady if they can’t even get proper deliveries. I would avoid them out of principle.

😂 love you 🦀
- Comment on Radio transmissions 3 weeks ago:
Nah but we crab walk/run/bounce to reach the ball faster when it is dropped near the net by the opponent. It’s faster than alternatingly putting one foot in front of the other.

- Comment on Radio transmissions 3 weeks ago:
It doesn’t happen in reality, of course. It’s just a hypothetical.
But there are obviously cares in nature where species have not changed (much/noticeably) for millions of years. I would call that pretty much end game, given the set of animal and plant (and other) life forms present up to that point. But sure, apocalyptic changes will turn that upside down. You could argue that those are also part of nature and that adaptation to those scenarios are also a part of evolution.
I tend to both agree and disagree. 😅

Can you recommend some of his work to start?
- Comment on Radio transmissions 3 weeks ago:
Well, evolution simply means adaptation, right? If there’s nothing new to which you need to adapt, ever again, you will have reached the end of your branch. 🤷♂️
