- Comment on Which band are you on? 1 hour ago:
It’s a 2m repeater in the LA area where the hams that go in don’t declare their call signs say racist things and talk shit to each other.
Sorry for the Reddit link but they’re better at explaining it:

I usually listen in on the 2m band because I like listening to the crazy folks in W6NUT ramble on. It’s like a ham 4chan.

I’m grateful for OPs who paste at least some of the relevant information into the post without having to click on the link. Personally it’s better to avoid going to the site since you’re bombarded with cookie notices, subscription solicitations, browser notification requests, and even ads of you’re not using uBlock.

If horses aren’t real then where is the power coming from the car’s engine? Checkmate.
- Comment on Palworld Developer Reveals The Pokémon Patents Nintendo Claims It's Violating 4 days ago:
Part of the reason is because most people don’t notice the lawsuits or think this is boilerplate legal stuff that happens in the background all the time. They’re too distracted by the entertainment side of things.

- Comment on Anons discuss PC vs console gaming 1 week ago:
MAG was truly a gem that never got the chance to shine. I wish some other developer would try doing something as mad as 256 player matches again.
- Comment on Yakuza creator Nagoshi says the era of game size being most important is coming to an end 1 week ago:
It’d be nice if JRPGs would go back to the old school overworld design like in Star Ocean 2. It’s a good compromise between sense of scale and interactivity with the world.

What… What’s the difference from regular holy water?
- Comment on New mobile features are sh*t these days 3 weeks ago:
The free market has been deliberately shit at meeting the demands of the market for quite some time. Big players like Apple have been very good at manufacturing hype and loyalty to deliver mediocre products for a consistent revenue stream instead. Smaller companies are either too irrelevant to make an impact or just try to mimic the more successful companies instead.

Make this position remote and I’ll volunteer in a heartbeat. You’ll never for me quit.
- Comment on Hmmmm 5 weeks ago:
Yeah it’s stuff like this that can make a huge problem like with the Mars Climate Orbiter crashing because its programmers were mixing and matching SI and Imperial units. Adding a few minutes to a document can save hours of looking stuff up for the reader later.
- Comment on Hmmmm 5 weeks ago:
The lack of labeling each variable (with units!) in equations really boils my piss. Yes the author knows them by heart, but even peers in the same field could struggle to understand what they mean. If introductory chemistry and physics instructors beat the practice into their students I see no excuse for authors to leave them out in a thesis.
- Comment on Why are people impressed with SpaceX? 5 weeks ago:
They also have a very tight tolerance of failure. Every failure made in the engineering process brings more and more scrutiny by those holding the purse strings in Washington.

The castle. No back pain so far thanks to a career in mostly office jobs.
- Comment on Anon recommends a cast iron pan 1 month ago:
I like to avoid the hassle of taking special care of a cast iron and just use a stainless steel pan from IKEA. Spray on cooking oil works really well to keep food from sticking if your don’t crank up the heat and anything that does get stuck can be easily scrubbed off with a copper scouring pad. Best part is that there’s no need to worry about rust. Ultimately just use what you like most.

Or Ticketmaster monopoly.
- Comment on 2024 is about 75% done. Let's recommend the best games of 2024, but with a twist: only the ones with no paid DLC! 1 month ago:
The game was a lot of fun. The only issue I had with it was how the endings branch out. I won’t go into too much detail but let’s say I didn’t expect a seemingly benign choice leading me to become such an asshole.
- Comment on End nuclear fusion! 1 month ago:
The alternative is to use extremely limited quantities of gas crucial for MRIs, chip making, metallurgy, and a few other high tech applications. But hey, pretty balloons.

I was one of those people flipping out about the Rockstar Social Club and Ubisoft Connect crap. There’s zero need to force additional DRM on paying customers. We might not have all been vocal but we were around.

It helps if you barely ever play Ubisoft games to begin with. BOTW and Horizon are just about all I can take for that style of map design.

Are you planning to have this on GoG as well?
