  Sure would! But the few times I did try, it fucked with my stomach. Meat is especially rough if your stomach bacteria is not used to it. I don’t consider myself vegan, I just don’t buy dairy products.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Boy Dinner⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I am Danish and have a hatred for how the meat and dairy industry has ruined my country and its farmland. So more of a political choice, that was handed down to me by my hippie grandparents.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Boy Dinner⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t eat cheese myself, so I can’t say specifically which one. I came into the common kitchen one day, and he was just boiling a big chunky slice (like from a cheese wheel). His reason was that he thought it would ‘soften it up’.

  He was a great engineer but an incredibly odd fellow. His entire room was also just hip-height stacks of old tech, laptops, books and boardgames, with only a shallow walking path between his bed, desk and bathroom.

  Fields can be dominated by people who are not the best at it - just look at most CEO’s.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Boy Dinner⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I grew up with parents who loved to cook and grow their own vegetables - I was always cooking with them. When I moved into an engineering dormitory, I was shocked to learn that absolutely no ~20 y/o around me knew how to cook. Seeing a picture of this plate brought me back - everybody made crap like this.

  Also, once I saw a dude trying to boil a whole cheese (his parents were mega-wealthy, and he had never cooked once in his life).

  What responsibilities? Most people just assume there are responsibilities and consequences, turns are out there isn’t. The newest episode of Some More News is about exactly this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Take-Two CEO Says We'll All Be Streaming Our Games In 3 Years⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  People will already pay 500€ extra to shave 2ms off their display delay. Absolutely no way they will accept the input delay of streaming games.

  Never even heard of a programming language in Danish. Even the ones invented by danes are in english.

  Why do companies these days not understand the value of tactility?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  And then combined it with thumbnails that change all the time because of A/B testing, which makes things even harder to recognize at a glance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the hate against Pit Bulls? Everyone I've met are super friendly like my BC. Or are they the new Doberman for this cycle?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It is a bigger, stronger breed. The damage it can cause when misbehaving is naturally way worse.

  I visited America for a month last year, and I have never met that many ill-behaved dogs. Pit Bulls are fine if they are thoroughly trained, but most American dogs are definitely not. Why do Americans also always have more dogs? They never stop at one. Every time I met a dog owner, they had at least two.

  And now we will never have the beginning of Snow Crash happen irl. Damn.

  Man, you have been missing out on the golden age of indie games. Sorry to hear that.

  Microplastics is a solid contender

  That is the best description of sapiosexual I have ever heard

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can't prove environmental issues if you don't have the data⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Problem is that we share the same world. Even if left alone, Americans kill our common world with their consumption habits and outdated energy sources.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can't prove environmental issues if you don't have the data⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Centuries if we count the damage to soft power

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve has raised Steam Deck prices in the US⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You called it. Still sold out in less than 24 hours.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve hikes Steam Deck prices by more than 40%, blaming rising costs⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Bought the 1 TB as soon as the OLED version released. So glad i did that, it is a fun little machine, but the new price point is rough.

  I also bought a Raspberry Pi 5 with 16GB RAM back in september. Just checked the current price on that, and it has increased by almost 250% from the same retailer. Holy shit.

  Read and listen to this comment. I made the mistake of quitting at the end of my first playthrough. This game is quite a trip.

  HGModernism is always great! The narwhal wikipedia page deep dive is an all time favourite of mine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon misses flash⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I engage in the community - just like the good old newgrounds days. There was also tons of unplayable, eyecatchy stuff back then, we just dont remember it as much.

  The most effektive way is to participate in game jams, get to know people and find out who makes the quality stuff. Pretty much exactly like finding good new podcasts or youtubers. It takes some effort but it is totally worth it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon misses flash⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The amateur game dev community is thriving like never before. Itch.io has become Newgrounds on steroids, full of incredibly creative, fun and free games.

  People like to complain about what has been lost on the modern internet, without spending any time actually looking and trying out the new niches.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What do you think might happen if Luigi Mangione isnt found guilty?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The American government is doing their best to make him and his story disappear from the media. The same tactic will simply intensify. Killing him with the classic ‘prison suicide’ will only make him a martyr, so they will silence him and make him as invisible as possible.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Incel propaganda in my music app⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Tidal used to be the only good music streaming app. Now it is being flooded with AI music in every radio and suggested playlist. Their integrity towards artists didn’t last long.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I am looking for a Linux OS⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I also game a lot and made the switch a little over a year ago. I use a 3090 so i chose Pop!_OS and it has been treating me super well! Highly recommended, especially their new Cosmic version.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OpenAI might torch $14 billion in 2026, hitting bankruptcy by next year⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I am currently at the BETT conference in London, about technology in education. Absolutely everything is AI this year. Never before have i seen such hype around a single technology, it feels oddly fake and manufactured, and it is also utterly boring to showcase, so most of the exhibitor stands are just tables with a laptop with a prompt screen open.

  I hate it.
