I’m much more in favor of never using his name just for the sole reason that he loves to see his name everywhere. plus we already have a word for his supporters; it’s hogs.
- Comment on I hate that that happens 12 hours ago:
well I can’t find a source for it now. maybe I’m misremembering. I read it in the book The Universal History of Numbers by Georges Ifrah. maybe it was referring to some remnant exception, maybe it was about another language. can’t verify it cause the book is not nearby right now. maybe I confused it with four different ways to pluralize in French (s, x, aux, none) idk.

1994 is as far in the past today as 1964 was in 1994.

no
- Comment on I hate that that happens 1 day ago:
maybe I should have clarified: not every language has quirks in the same ways. German has weird articles that make no sense. French has different pluralization rules for up to four objects
But even of you just want to think about writing: German makes super long words that look monstrous by mushing words together. French doesn’t pronounce half the letters in its spelling. Arabic doesn’t really have vowels but instead uses diacritics that are often omitted so you have to be really familiar with the language to read at all.
- Comment on I hate that that happens 1 day ago:
no it’s not. you can find quirks like this in every language.

the first time I see it?
you think this is the first motherfucking gameplay video that I’ve seen from this motherfucking game in ten motherfucking years?
no one said anything about a time span to my liking.
either read the conversation you’re trying to contribute to or just stop talking about irrelevant shit.
I’m asking for the plan.
#where’s the plan, lebowski? where’s the fucking plan?
- Comment on Star Citizen devs report drying funds, micromanagement, overspending, and episodic release for Squadron 42 1 day ago:
sorry i didnt realize you were rummaging through my comment history to find something to attack because you cant come up with a good argument in the relevant conversation so i thought you meant i was talking about this scam.
I don’t know what depths of your ass you pulled that the team of the latest prince of persia is my “favorite game studio”. I think you should be jailed for playing with people’s livelihoods despite their success merely for more profit, yes.
a time span to my liking? how about any time span? tell me when it’s coming out mate. where’s the plan? you don’t know why I’m calling it a scam, you don’t know what I criticized about it… why is it so hard for you to follow a conversation?

if sky news says they’re beneficial they’re probably trying to fuck you out of your retirement plan or something
- Comment on Star Citizen devs report drying funds, micromanagement, overspending, and episodic release for Squadron 42 1 day ago:
hate? what’s with you guys weirdly anthropomorphizing a game that’s only maybe halfway done in a decade? you got too invested, too attached maybe, that someone calling it a scam seems “hateful” however that works? rage? lol wtf have you seen anyone rage before, mate? calling something a scam is not personal, it’s not even an attack. and it’s definitely something I live on. I have called people to be jailed for swindling.
how much money has this game extracted from dummies over the past decade? how much money’s worth is “playable”? I was gonna say “out” since that was the original claim but obviously the answer is zero. the games not out. but I’ll settle for playable since apparently you guys have already given up hope on an actual release and have settled on playing half baked demos bit by bit.
pointing out that you’re being scammed is not hate. it’s a wake up call. I understand though, an alarm clock seems hateful to me too when I’m enjoying my dream too much.
you should see me talk about the cybertruck.

i don’t care about people alpha testing unfinished games. I’ve been talking about release. they said “it’s out”. where is it. what’s the plan. when was it finished. why is it not out. stop trying to feed me bullshit, you’re confusing me with someone who lives on hype alone. if I were I’d be playing the star citizen half-game myself.
- Comment on Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas release 20 years ago today. 2 days ago:
to me the best grand theft auto is 2.
I was dumbfounded when playing 3. in the game series that was unlike any other I’ve played before in terms of throwing me in the middle of an open world full of action to be experienced any way I want, some dipshit I don’t care about was holding me by the ear dragging me around town to do shit I don’t want to do. I quit playing in an hour.
now every AAA game is like this. thanks, GTA for ruining games.

“best cuisine”
I don’t doubt they say that because they’re insufferable but that’s ridiculous especially for a country that colonized several countries with objectively better cuisine.

I don’t get the connection… are you referring to god?

I know i use it because it was the best reddit client. as for lemmy it still has the best look and feel but it doesn’t render everything correctly.
for spoilers both work on sync but the first one shows the word “spoiler” as well when revealed.
- Comment on Eat lead 3 days ago:
yeah the insistence of creation meaning it happens in an instant is just demonstrably not warranted. we already say god created us. and we know we don’t come into existence in full adult form in an instant. we have a whole birth-baby-toddler-kid-teen-adult transformation. and before that we know there is a whole process in the womb. so when god creates a person he puts an entire process into motion. why can this not be the case for the entire universe? why not evolution? are they saying that god couldn’t have thought of a system? I find it weird.
- Comment on Ches 3 days ago:
yeah not on sync. I rarely look at lemmy on desktop.
- Comment on Eat lead 4 days ago:
the answer completely disregards the fact that people who even remotely understand how these things work wouldn’t believe stupid shit in the first place. there are so many ways for this guy to just dismiss this.
how would you even know, you can’t have studied these for billions of years
who says lead only can exist in this manner
what is this is true but god also made lead along with the earth
etc etc… this is very weak if the goal is really try to convince this guy to look into some things rather than smell your own farts.

my favorite thing is when a comic has a very clear message but it’s also written at the top what it’s about and whay i should take from the message is further explained below.

it’s out? I can finally buy the finished product? awesome! I can’t find it in steam. surely it must have come out on steam, such a big release.
maybe I’m typing “star citizen” wrong. could you link me to the store page? thank you for informing me, I’m so ready to take back everything I said once I start playing.
- Comment on Star Citizen devs report drying funds, micromanagement, overspending, and episodic release for Squadron 42 1 week ago:
yes it is. if you’re asking for money you should have a reasonable plan for paying it off. you can’t just take money and say well, let’s just see how things turn out.
well, you clearly can, but I’m not gonna pretend it’s legit

cool. I think you’re wrong about abortion on grounds of personal freedom, but at least you’re not a hypocrite.
- Comment on Star Citizen devs report drying funds, micromanagement, overspending, and episodic release for Squadron 42 1 week ago:
if you ask for money promising something and you have no plan of delivering, it’s a scam.
I don’t know how gta6 fits here. if they did the same thing yes I would absolutely call it a scam.

free healthcare and medical procedures for everyone including prisoners, covering all prescription drugs, free school lunches, decommodifying housing and abolishing landlords, severely limiting the police in favor of various civil servants for most cases, strict gun control and red flag laws, reducing cars in favor of alternative transportation methods and public transit, redesigning cities into 15 minute cities to facilitate that, and I can go on for a long time but you get the gist

the fetus is not a person. even if it were it doesn’t matter. what matters is that it lives in the mother’s body and the mother has to consent to what happens to her body. you can’t (or shouldn’t be able to) compel people to do anything with their body, including to keep others alive.
