  I mean I played it 13 years ago, but I remember I liked it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon took bad hiring decisions⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Obviously one of those industrial robots.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Unfortunately outside of Life is Strange, they didn’t really do anything interesting.

  I liked Remember Me, it had some cool ideas at the time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Notably this is not the developer who has done Life is Strange True Colours, Double Exposure or Reunion.

  And Before the Storm. Don’t Nod has only made LiS and LiS 2, all the other games were developed by Deck Nine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Tis true!⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Almost forgot, thanks for reminding me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon makes a multiplayer game⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Make it some vague definitely-not-china country.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Half a Million Nameless Heroes: Gothic 1 Remake Sells 500,000 Copies in First Week⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You could play the original instead.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dating apps metaphor⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Trees were invented by the same government organisation that invented birds. They use trees in combination with birds to spy on us.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Xbox pulls Gears video featuring a PS5 logo, 24 hours after announcing it as an exclusive⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t see how. Lot’s of games get announced and later cancelled and that’s never seen as false advertisement. Even if the game releases, and there’s only a PC/XBox version, you wouldn’t buy that and then sue Microsoft because you can’t play it on PS5 and if you don’t buy it you don’t have a case.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Not Over Yet ☝️🤓⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Just rehashing what was already said.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨007 First Light review – a triumphant James Bond game made by obsessive fans⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Who cares about twitter?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨👴☝️I did that⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  In places like Saudi Arabia, gas is cheaper than water.

  Because it’s a fucking desert surrounded by salt water. Desalination is expensive.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This place is a prison⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Study shots it is then, got it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Handy tip⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s probably not so odd, it doesn’t seem to have much of an effect on creative skills. A friend of me has aphantasia and she’s a tattoo artist.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Handy tip⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Does this affect dreams?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Handy tip⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No, I will imagine a rainbow farting unicorn singing Bohemian Rhapsody instead. I win.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A Witcher Expansion? In 2026?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I loved Blood and Wine, I hope this comes close to it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sus

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This looks structurally unsound.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We are so close⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  2000000 of anything sounds like a lot, so why not use prefixes to simplify?

  That’s why you either use kcal (or Cal) or kJ, but not Mcal (or kCal, which is easily confused with kcal) or MJ, because most things you eat and drink are between 0 and a few hundred kcal. This way you have one unit and keep it consistent instead of switching between kcal and Mcal all the time or saying awkward stuff like you ate something that only had 0.004 Mcal.

  Europeans use kilojoules to the same effect.

  While kJ is required in labeling in Europe most people still use kcal for everything. AFAIK the only country somewhat consistently using kJ is Australia (the one with the kangaroos).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We are so close⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  4 kCal is a lot. There is cal (small calorie) and Cal (large calorie), 1 Cal is 1000 cal or 1 kcal, 1 kCal would be 1 Mcal.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI girlfriend⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If she really is my girlfriend she would share that RAM with me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gold⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Gold coating for connectors is nice. For everything else it doesn’t really matter, you get an oxide layer that prevents further oxidation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gold⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  For what? Gold is a shit conductor compared to copper.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How is RAM size measured? Why doesn't it match the marketed size?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There is no kernel and no device drivers, MemTest86+ runs on bare metal and it moves itself around to test all memory, so it uses virtually no memory and should show all available memory.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon struggles with OLED⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Tell anyone who asks that you were just hanging out too much on X/Twitter. No wait, I think that’s worse than the truth.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon struggles with OLED⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably makes it worse.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ew why are you like that⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Skeletons would be less gross without the fleshy parts around them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ew why are you like that⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  auto-immune issues are gross…

  Autoimmune issues at least know who the enemy is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ew why are you like that⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Noses are so ugly and they’re right in the middle of the face. Very hard to avoid looking at those ugly things.
