My computer can’t run it very well but there’s a pretty decent VR mod out there.
- Comment on Amazon Artificially Discounting Items $0.01 Below the Free Shipping Limit 3 weeks ago:
If they bundled the item with a pack of batteries in a retail store and sold it for 39.99, would you still consider it cheaper?
- Comment on Amazon Artificially Discounting Items $0.01 Below the Free Shipping Limit 3 weeks ago:
How? You cannot buy this “cheaper” version without spending more money. It’s 39.99 with free shipping other places. It’s $39.99 on Amazon because you have to pay for shipping. You’re not saving money, you’re just getting more stuff from Amazon.
- Comment on Amazon Artificially Discounting Items $0.01 Below the Free Shipping Limit 3 weeks ago:
Cheaper on Amazon, or anywhere else?
- Comment on Amazon Artificially Discounting Items $0.01 Below the Free Shipping Limit 3 weeks ago:
How have you ‘saved’ money that you spent, exactly?
- Comment on Amazon Artificially Discounting Items $0.01 Below the Free Shipping Limit 3 weeks ago:
So they’re getting you to buy more than you wanted or pull the trigger on something you were waiting on. Sounds like this is still a win for Amazon.

what’s going on with this car that has a center console in the middle of the back seat? is this AI generated?
- Comment on Charities of Employees from "non-profit" I was going to donate too 2 months ago:
that’s not just non profits. ever wonder how so many nominally “unprofitable” companies seem to stick around forever?
- Comment on Charities of Employees from "non-profit" I was going to donate too 2 months ago:
Great, sounds like they didn’t need that donation money since the CEO will get them all the rich kickbacks they need. So what’s the problem?
- Comment on New oven and they lock the air fryer functionality behind wifi. 2 months ago:
doesn’t seem to have stopped them from locking functionality that does not require an internet conneciton behind an internet connection, so i don’t see why they would care.
- Comment on New oven and they lock the air fryer functionality behind wifi. 2 months ago:
which is great until you realize that if it cant connect to a server somewhere to download the latest Ad manifest it crashes the OvenOS and now your warranty is void AND you can’t bake a cake.

- Comment on Goodwill is out of control 3 months ago:
If they want people to keep shopping there and providing the income necessary to maintain that charitable work, they should probably try to maintain the perception that they price things cheaply enough to make it worth digging through racks of second hand goods.
- Comment on Game Freak has been allegedly hacked, with source codes for Pokemon games reportedly leaked 4 months ago:
It is a menu driven battler that ran on a game boy. It doesn’t take a programming savant to write this, no matter how many mechanics you bolt on top.
- Comment on PlayStation product manager says ads being shown was just a bug 4 months ago:
Yeah it is possible he’s accurately, but misleadingly, calling it a bug because it was not meant to be deployed to production (yet). I do not think that’s how he wants or expects people to take it when he calls it a “bug”, though.
- Comment on PlayStation product manager says ads being shown was just a bug 4 months ago:
you don’t get entire functional UI elements accurately populated with appropriate data out of a “bug”

If all your sponsors and business partners immediately flee you at mach speed over what you sent to that kid, it was certainly well past “inappropriate”

- Comment on Why isn't jerking off more valorized as an easy dopamine hit that's also literally good for you? 8 months ago:
Specific aspects of gender roles are what toxic masculinity criticizes, you’re trying to substitute a general term for a more specific one. Toxic masculinity specifically refers to the ones that are toxic, not the fact that men have gender roles at all. It’s, like you said, right there in the name.
- Comment on Why isn't jerking off more valorized as an easy dopamine hit that's also literally good for you? 8 months ago:
My dude, scenes from a Barbie movie are not representative of an entire political movement and I really don’t think your interpretation of those scenes makes for any kind of proof of your claims.
Do you have anything demonstrating the feminist movement supports this shit:
The Duluth Model of determining domestic violence another example. Child support is another. The banning of paternity testing is yet another
Or are you just labeling these things as feminist because you do that with everything you perceive as misandrist?
- Comment on Why isn't jerking off more valorized as an easy dopamine hit that's also literally good for you? 8 months ago:
You’re making a lot of claims about things I don’t think you really have a grasp on. “Toxic masculinity” is not an implication that all men are inherently toxic. It’s a criticism of societal expectations for men that harm them and their relationships.
You’re saying that feminism has seriously hindered acceptance of male masturbation but all you’ve provided here is vague unsubstantiated implications of media bias and a single author’s name. I’m not going to read the entire collected works of whoever Dworkin is to figure out why you think they’re both representative of the entire feminist movement and also hate men wanking it. Give me something tangible here. A quote, a law they supported, a speech, a video, literally anything at all that isn’t just some insulation that’s only attributable to yourself
I would consider myself a male feminist and I masturbate daily so if the movement thinks that’s wrong I’d like to know so I can stop describing myself as feminist.

You’ve been clear about what you think dude, we want to know why you think it.
- Comment on Why isn't jerking off more valorized as an easy dopamine hit that's also literally good for you? 8 months ago:
That’s not an explanation you just restated the claim they asked you to elaborate on. What have you encountered that led you to this conclusion?

fake is just an easy way to communicate the idea without going into a bunch of complex color terminology. extra-spectral is a name for them if you really want to split hairs about it.

There are humans with a fourth color receptor in their eyes who have a wider color range than your average person.. Women only though, sorry boys.
- Comment on Hasbro exec says Baldur's Gate 3 "proved for us that people really wanted great D&D games," supports Larian's plan to "take the time we need" 11 months ago:
that is an extremely debatable, incredibly hot take. i wasn’t a fan of cloud and surface spam but lets not pretend that 5e’s combat is universally loved, either. larian made it work pretty well by sanding off some edges here and there but it’s, at best, a sidegrade.
- Comment on Hasbro exec says Baldur's Gate 3 "proved for us that people really wanted great D&D games," supports Larian's plan to "take the time we need" 11 months ago:
Yeah I agree. They deserve a lot of credit for elevating D&D rather than relying on it to elevate the game. The result is grater than the sum of its parts; both D&D and Larian reached a wider audience through the collaboration.

Anyone who played Larian’s previous titles can tell you the only thing DnD brought to the table was a popular license.

Continuing to be amazed that the Pinkertons both still exist and are still up to their old tricks. Nothing is ever learned.
