Some of these GIF hosts can be pretty obtuse. I was able to get at this GIF by going to the embed page and clicking/tapping the “copy link” button. In this case, the only difference in the two URLs was the file extension.

I’ve got three, ranging between 8 and nearly 10 years old, with the oldest one seeing exponentially more use than the others, and they all still work flawlessly. I tend to put hundreds of hours into a handful of games, but I don’t use them every day, if that helps quantity my usage a bit.

No one’s telling you that you don’t have that choice… Just that over-indulging in that choice could lead to heart disease. What you find to be an acceptable level of risk is entirely up to you.

Constrictive criticism and pointers is how we get better

Yeah, please. Why be deceptive? It serves no one.
Better yet, take responsibility for your own pleasure. Play an active role in getting what you want out of the act. Communicate. Why wouldn’t you?

Been a lot of “demon” talk from him lately. Tucker’s literally turning into Alex Jones before our very eyes.
- Comment on Random Screenshots of my Games #36 - Kona 1 month ago:
I love walking sims, exploration games, and mysteries… Kona was such a great title. Really moody and atmospheric. Looking forward to picking up the sequel soon, maybe during this sale. Thanks for sharing!
- Comment on No Man's Sky The Cursed Expedition 1 month ago:
This is a great summary of the game, I just wanted to add on that you don’t necessarily have to start a new character for expeditions. They added the “Expedition Terminus” in the Space Anomaly a few updates back, which lets you start the expedition from an existing save.
That said, I always start a new character, because those first couple hours where I’m trying to get on my feet are always the most challenging for me, and that keeps the game fresh by pushing me outside my usual style of engaging with the game.

Same, I thought everybody in the Goof Troop universe was a dog.
- Comment on What is the purpose of this plastic piece? 2 months ago:
Could it be to protect the rest of the item from getting scratched by the prongs? Especially a screen, or some soft/glossy plastic case that would be prone to scratches.

Those markings are the key to a map that shows the exact location of Thomas Jefferson’s secret tomb!
- Comment on First Borderlands 4 Concept Art Revealed at PAX West Showing Off a Glimpse of Its New Worlds 3 months ago:
Definitely looks like more Borderlands.
I really enjoyed 1 and 2, played through the main story in both at least two times. I installed 3 over a year (two years?) ago and just completely stalled out on it, so it remains unfinished.
I really liked the low-gravity aspect of Pre Sequel, and the more immersive thematic elements of Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands… Hopefully there’s something like those things here, that really adds on to the core gameplay loop, and not just additional in-game currencies or another elemental damage type.

I don’t know if they work better on dogs, but from personal experience, there is simply no amount of Greenies that can improve my cats’ breath.

- Comment on What are some good games worth buying on play store? 4 months ago:
In addition to a few I’ve seen posted already (Stardew Valley especially)…
- A Dark Room: A relatively short, minimalist, mostly-text-based RPG with a dark vibe. I come back to this at least once a year. Can be played free via web browser, but the native app version has some extras.
- Dysmantle: A huge and well-polished zombie survival sim. Just recently finished it and was really impressed with the overall scale, level design and progression.
- Papers, Please: A ‘dystopian document thriller.’ You play as a border checkpoint agent, verifying increasingly-complicated passport documents and questioning your moral compass. Port of a PC game by the same name.

Graphic designer here, my guess would be a Photoshop job. I’m mostly going by the visual qualities of the edge of the thumb, comparing where it appears over the graphic, versus where it appears over the rest of the hand. There’s a slight but discernible difference in the sharpness, that usually indicates masking.
I did a reverse image search with TinEye, and found a “Colgate Whitening Dogs” version of the same original photo, which supports the Photoshop theory (at least in one of the two images): https://i.imgur.com/IB6rn9E.jpeg . That makes me think the original photo was of a pack of hotdogs where the label was blank / white – That’d let you distort the fake label graphic to roughly match the size and placement of where the real label art would go, and preserve the shadows, highlights and reflections of the packaging using layer styles.

I think they meant that the boys were of good character, besides the breaking and entering, vandalism, property damage, theft, cruelty to animals, and massacre.
