  Oh for sure, but as someone on the other end of things, it’s mildly exhausting to keep managing social interactions, especially if I’m already tapped out. It’s not always unwelcome, but I’m very happy doing my work just chilling as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨this level is amazing⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Great set piece, mildly irritating execution

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does it feel like the PS5's library is *severely* lacking compared to the PS4's around the same time in its lifecycle?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like given the amount of work required to make the kind of games that triple a represents, and the amount of money in and out, every game becomes a mess of different ideas and motivations with no unifying force. Every game must be everything to justify the price tag, but there’s no unifying passion or vision behind it. Of course the more you stuff in there, the more you can market it as well.

  Chewing ice as well, supposedly it is motivated by iron deficiency.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does it feel like the PS5's library is *severely* lacking compared to the PS4's around the same time in its lifecycle?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I would be surprised honestly. Technology has stalled pretty hard, tariffs and hardware is not in a great spot, PS5 still looks great and honestly there’s not going to be much to sell a customer base. I could see them doing it, but it might be wiser to kick it down the road for a few years until things get a bit better, like they did with the PS3 and 360.

  Hot take, but the pursuit of happiness is a sisyphian task. Humans can get used to any amount of wealth and plenty, it just becomes the new norm. You always need more and more, to the point it debauchery.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does it feel like the PS5's library is *severely* lacking compared to the PS4's around the same time in its lifecycle?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, exclusivity is dead, and games take half a decade to make these days.

  I would expect they do, you can never expect anything to be flawless where cyber security is concerned unfortunately.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Clair was much more of a vibes based hiring and management process. Crazy how letting creatives do their thing results in interesting content people want to experience.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon doesn't fit in⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This reads like a young man who hasn’t learned how to do things for his own enjoyment yet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Use this science wisely.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ditto, I figured it was one of those dance step guides.

  Evil is a point of view, Anakin. The modders and the developers are identical in almost every aspect.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Little Pea Shooters⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s alright, we send someone out every few years to give it a bit of a wind up, like a grandfather clock.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who is the enemy?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I too have configured a wsus server, that was about the experience I had.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who is the enemy?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh that’s the burning vitriol for all things of the infernal depths yes

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who is the enemy?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  IT people hate computers

  Couldn’t even spring for a higher frame rate the cheap bastards.

  Well you need to work on your communication skills as much as you do on your tone then.

  You clearly are more focused on being argumentative and obtuse rather than engaging the argument that skills need to be developed, before you assign all the work to a machine that automates the process, but errors can and will occur.

  Enjoy spending all your life entering every discussion predisposed to anger and argument, I’ve got better things to do with my time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI Eroded Doctors' Ability to Spot Cancer Within Months in Study⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s an analogy. It’s referring to the original comment where people don’t have the skills to recognise how or why something doesn’t work. The core problem is without that fundamental understanding of what you’re trying to do, you don’t know why something doesn’t work.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI Eroded Doctors' Ability to Spot Cancer Within Months in Study⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If your use a calculator, and it gives you back a number that can’t possibly be right, you know there’s an error somewhere along the line.

  If you’ve never done multiplication before, you won’t have that innate sense of what looks right or wrong.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Battlefield 6 players are crying out for a 'real' server browser, and it's about time we demanded the basic FPS feature that Call of Duty killed⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I miss community servers terribly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Humble Choice this month contains Persona 5 Royal, My Time at Sandrock, Lil Gator Game, more⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I first played it when I was like 30, I think that it doesn’t rely on either age or medium enough to ruin the experience. It’s not perfect, the storyline can be a touch flimsy here and there, but the core experience is amazing.

  Also the runtime is like 120 hours. Still a big commitment.

  Man 2016 was a better time

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Indie gaming's only three genres have inevitably converged into grimdark Balatro with a whimsical egg idiot⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not getting on your case here, I just think you may not have exposed yourself to a wide variety of indie titles. If your opinion is that independent studios are worth dismissing because I don’t like that some of them follow gene design traits, it’s a fair conclusion.

  We’re living in a golden age of indie games right now, painting all of them with the same brush is doing yourself a massive disservice in my opinion.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Indie gaming's only three genres have inevitably converged into grimdark Balatro with a whimsical egg idiot⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It sounds like you haven’t had much exposure to them? In order my last 5 played indie games are: -4 player coop rock climbing -Cozy Horror game where you’re alone doing menial tasks in the Swiss Alps, there are also aliens -Oldschool roguelike adventure -Shoot goblins and cultists -Logic puzzle akin to Minesweeper

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does the ping between your eyes and brain increase when you're tired?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sort of, your processing power does decrease, meaning you’ll likely do a worse job of putting what you’re seeing into the appropriate context.

  How do we live in a world where being a major financial boon for your company isn’t enough, this is bullshit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  As I said, it’s not mandatory. It’s a personal choice, not much different to a piercing, tattoo or bodymod in my mind. I don’t particularly care for any of those, but it’s not my body that it’s being done to either, so my feelings are largely irrelevant.

  Beyond that, the motivations of any other person are going to be somewhat alien, because people cannot truely know or communicate experiences beyond a very surface level. You or I cannot fully understand, because we haven’t experienced it. We have to trust that stuff like this is what they want, because that is what they’re telling us with the limited communication abilities humans have.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is Illiterate⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Brains gravitate to the quickest easiest dopamine responses, and will ignore things that give rewards slower. ADHD brains are particularly bad for this.

  I have the exact same issue. If I was able to give up scrolling social media, I’m sure I’d be back on the books again inside of a few weeks. We’ll just have to wait for the great collapse.

  God I’m remembering in Hunter X Hunter how there were entire spreads detailing complex rulesets for world building, and they legit felt like the silmarilion at times.
