Upvotes higher than views? Considering how many lurkers there are? Considering even people who engage with a post don’t necessarily upvoter? They said 8k views, 12k upvotes. Even if those numbers are reverse, that’s an insane engagement ratio.
- Comment on Linux gamers on Steam finally cross over the 3% mark 6 days ago:
Actually, the raw number percentage shows that the increase is due to Mint, Ubuntu, and Bazzite. Maybe people are installing Bazzite on their Deck but likely not the other two.

Beards? My hair starts at the top of my head and ends at my toe knuckles. My beard hair goes up to my cheek bones, down to the underside of my jaw and entirely down my neck to connect to my chest hair. I have to regularly shave my neck, shape and trim my beard.
I mean, I like my facial hair just fine, I just wish I didn’t have random solid white patches where my body decided to quit due to stress on me.
I’d really rather shoot myself than deal with grooming my face in general but I’d rather limit the parts I have to shave if I must.

Fine, females, fine, fellas. Alliteration, my dude? “Wonderful on women, worse on… Whitey?” “Great for girls (er…), garish on guys” “Mejor para mujeres, es peor para papas”
Yeah, there’s better ways to do it but it’s more effort than anyone should put in to a shit post.

Yeah, this will be so helpful when I’m trying to figure out 20% of 36.23!
Look, move the decimal one to the left, you’ve now got 10%. Double that and you’ve got 20%. How often are y’all trying to find out percentages of nice even numbers like that?

I played 200 hours of MGSV with the Steam Controller. I love it.
I hate playing Xcom with the Steam controller which, arguably, it should be better at.
- Comment on Steam Autumn Sale 2025 Has Begun 5 weeks ago:
Yakuza 0 is with it but then you have to play Yakuza 1-6 and then you put the games down and get gifted Yakuza 7 so now you have to beat 4 through 6 and they just announced Kiwami 3 so you’ll probably want to compare that to 3 remastered and next thing you know you’ve bought Yakuza Dead Souls and you’re questioning your life.
- Comment on Steam Autumn Sale 2025 Has Begun 5 weeks ago:
Like, I’m sure Spider-Man is good but it’s still $60 and ‘only’ on a 50% sale? You can get it for $15 at GameStop.

Because I could see that.

Yeah, D gets you at least four entirely different types of cuisine and Australian stuff will still have that Euro/American vibe. Only downside is you’ll technically be allowed to eat Vegemite.

Goes both ways, buy the homies a gift.
Also, know their birthdays and things.

I have games on my wishlist from 2015. Almost a decade at this point.
My wishlist exists more to let Internet friends know what to get me when they feel like it.

Yeah, apparently HR has some issues with “I would slice a Nazis head off for free, don’t even ask me what I’d pay to do it.”

Killing people is fine but you realize a ton of early hip-hop and West Coast rap was explicitly about not loving the homies, right? Even Superman didn’t get a pass on Rapper’s Delight…
- Comment on Anon tries to meet girls at college 2 months ago:
Approach a woman who does want to be approached at the time she wants to be approached without communicating any of that information. Ez. /s
In seriousness, consider class time as ‘work.’ Don’t bother women at work. Now if you’re in the back of the class and she’s browsing Amazon, maybe she’s not working as much but don’t be creepy and say “I see you’re shopping, talk to me instead,” because, ew, but at least you know next time you’re getting situated you can say “Hey, stupid question, blah blah blah” and test the waters.
Or, just generally treat women like people. That one always works.
- Comment on Why aren't there many controllers with the ability to physically swap out the ABXY layout between Xbox/PC and Nintendo layout? 2 months ago:
It’s weird but they are all different. I’ve never had an issue where I see an Xbox X and hit the PS X. Normally if a game wants X(PS Flavour) the X itself is blue, potentially with a black circle around it. If a game shows you an X(Xbox Flavour) it shows a blue circle with a different blue X inside. Nintendo generally just shows a top button glyph or if they do show the X it’s usually monochrome, except for Americana flavoured SNES which was just top purple and since GC had the vertical kidney bean X… Well, Nintendo only recently became a problem I suppose.
So, basically, the in-game glyphs do differentiate themselves.
- Comment on What game sequel ruined a beloved franchise or character for you? 2 months ago:
I did play a bunch of BFV but I wouldn’t say I liked it more than 1942. My time spent on BFV was mostly mucking about with friends which was probably the ideal way to play that one.
- Comment on What game sequel ruined a beloved franchise or character for you? 2 months ago:
BF3 was certainly really good but maybe I can show my age by saying 1942 and Vietnam were at the very least the start of the plateau, if not the real peak.

I said “I sent a video recording of this a month ago and received confirmation. Do you not have that?” and got back “I never got that.”
“Alright, got it. Thankfully it’s not my problem anymore but you know where yours is.” and left it at that.

Stacks nicely in a backpack? You know how much crap goes in a medium ruck? How’s Jenkins gonna find my stash of disk nades under my spare ammo and ‘field stripped’ MREs? No, I need my grenades quick access, on my chest next to the repurposed saw pouch full of rip-its.
