Looks like they’re already dead, would probably be satisfying to set fire to them 🔥😅
- Comment on Valve have just updated the Source 1 SDK on GitHub to the latest code based on Team Fortress 2, effectively making TF2 code source available 1 day ago:
Also this is just source code, not the assets (at least as far as I understand it).
Could probably just require the official game to be installed too and load the assets from that directory, or might even be able to use the a shared folder, but not sure if tf2 uses that, i remember l4d and css and hl2 used to.

These youtube videos dissect some good examples of various forms of disinformation :
- Comment on Doppler 4 days ago:
someone else can figure out the kinetic energy of the car and why the whole continent just exploded…
It’s not on fire or melting the asphalt beneath it, so it must be really aerodynamic, and have really low rolling resistance tyres…

A quick google and I found this: Irish Homing Union

Also it’s fun.

Interesting: in that sense 4k would have slightly better brightness gradiation: if you average the brightness of 4 pixels there’s a lot more different levels of brightness that can be represented by 4 pixels vs 1, which might explain the difference perceived even when you can’t see the individual pixels.
- Comment on It'll happen to you! 1 week ago:
While it is pretty subtle, and colour depth and frame rate are easily way more important, I can easily tell the difference between an 8k and a 4k computer monitor from usual seating position. I mean it’s definitely not enough of a difference for me to bother upgrading my 2k monitor 😂, but it’s there. Maybe I have above average vision though, dunno, though I’ve never done an eye test.
- Comment on Driver caught doing 122mph on 30mph road as UK’s shocking speed records revealed 1 week ago:
Yeah not saying it was an appropriate speed for the previous area 😅 (except if the road was closed for a rally) just maybe explains how it was physically possible.
- Comment on Driver caught doing 122mph on 30mph road as UK’s shocking speed records revealed 1 week ago:
Possibly just after a speed limit change?

Also would it kill all the sea life leading to a large amount of greenhouse gas emissions from all the decomposing fish corpses? Does undersea decomposition release greenhouse gases?
- Comment on Looks legit, but can it actually be a real thing? 1 week ago:
Would that scare conservatives? They’d probably see it as a justified trade off…
- Comment on I miss when you could get a flagship phone that could fit in your hand 1 week ago:
Actually looking into it a bit more: there’s some smallish ones such as the Asus Zenphone 10 and foldables such as the Motorola Razr 50 Ultra.
- Comment on I miss when you could get a flagship phone that could fit in your hand 1 week ago:
True, but looks like its one of the only recent smartphones that is small 😞
- Comment on I miss when you could get a flagship phone that could fit in your hand 1 week ago:
iPhone 12 or 13 mini is similar to that size

Should start the meme with a self built 1800s style wood cabin, and end it with a piece of cardboard under a bridge.
- Comment on Car diagram 2 weeks ago:
The drivetrain is definitely not conventional, since they often bend and move the tyres independently to gesture 😂

Nah I think it’s Homelander.
- Comment on I have $5 genuine United States dollars here. 2 weeks ago:
Maybe it allows them to stack more eggs on top of each other without shelves without as many breaking or something?
- Comment on Under your nose 2 weeks ago:
It should effect the background, which will make it appear even more blue if you give your eyes time adjust to the night light filter 😅

Definitely son daughter.

For example, expect Luigi’s gun to be found at auction at some point.
So what you’re saying is: any gun can be made more valuable in the long term with a bit of careful planning 😂

The Russian oligarchs all seemed to think superyatchts with fabrige eggs on board was a good idea, but then they all got seized when Russia invaded Ukraine 😅
Real Estate in NZ seems to be popular with American oligarchs such as Peter Thiel, didn’t seem to work as well for Kim Dotcom though 😅

On my smart tv i set up the custom picture settings profile with the black level set so the only thing visible is the ad timer counter, and mute the tv.

- Comment on Cozy Games May Help Improve Players' Mental Health, Researchers Say 3 weeks ago:
I’ve not played harvest moon, but I found stardew valley and animal crossing a bit tedious… I guess people mean games that have a lot of small low stress tasks that don’t require much risk taking?
- Comment on Cozy Games May Help Improve Players' Mental Health, Researchers Say 3 weeks ago:
Loosely: Games that make you feel cozy.
I’ve never noticed a game having that effect personally 😅
I always thought of the word cozy as describing your physical comfort level as opposed to mental 🤔
- Comment on Cozy Games May Help Improve Players' Mental Health, Researchers Say 3 weeks ago:
Can someone explain what is a “cozy” game?

Rich is relative, easy to feel rich when they have no costs since they’re living in thier parents basement.
