Never playing a game that needs to be marketed with fake sob story screenshots. I assume its garbage anyway

That’s still easily a mansion yeah lol. McMansion would still be “single family” sized in my bullshit-personal-definition of the word. Several families of multiple generations can live in a mansion. I bet there’s 12 bedrooms in that house
- Comment on I knew it 1 week ago:
Idc either way about Taylor Swift’s house, but that’s significantly more than a McMansion.

You all should ban screwdrvers and hammers and wrenches and cricket bats and especially blunted knives, sure it might inconvenience some people, but think of the chance of saving lives???

- Comment on I just realized the only way to get new gamers to care about Jak is to release a "remastered" version, which sucks. 2 weeks ago:
These trends are basically the opposite for indie games. Look at Schedule 1 and STRAFTAT.

Takes a bit of practice to get the feel for it but it’s not too hard. 90% of the learning curve is just getting the car rolling from a dead stop without stalling
- Comment on Games on my PC start stuttering pretty badly when they aren't the active window for a while. Have to close the game and restart to resolve the stuttering issue. What exactly is causing this? 3 weeks ago:
Try borderless windowed instead of fullscreen
- Comment on Is it weird to juggle in the park? 4 weeks ago:
I’d expect that people will probably look and watch, but that’s just because juggling is entertaining

Why not just have buttons?

It’s fun. Getting away from it all and spending some quality time with nature. Hiking yourself into exhaustion. Sitting peacefully by the fire and watching it crackle.
Have low expectations and try to roll with whatever situations happen, things won’t be ideal or perfect. There might be rain, there might be mosquitos, it might get chilly at night, the ground might be hard where you sleep. The best thing to do is be prepared and try to keep a good attitude. There is a kind of fun to be had in persevering through any unideal situations that happen.
There are a lot of useful skills for camping that can , and a good way to spend the time on the first trip is to start learning these. Like if you’ve never made a campfire before, ask your friend to teach you how to gather kindling and build the fire.

Ironic, gallons per mile is actually a more useful measure for high fuel efficiency vehicles because it directly represents fuel consumption. Differences in MPG are more misleading to intuition as MPG increases.
For example, upgrading from an 18mpg car to a 28mpg car saves more fuel than upgrading from a 34mpg car to a 50mpg car. It is easy to be misled that 34mpg -> 50mpg is more savings because it is an upgrade of 16mpg rather than only 10mpg.

Calves are insanely strong, in general
- Comment on What programs do you wish a good FOSS alternative existed, but doesn't or most of the FOSS alternatives simply aren't good? 1 month ago:
Pretty sure I’ve seen folk run a terminal emulator and ollama on android

This is the kind of culture you get and deserve when you allow corporations to control your country and culture
- Comment on How can you oppose tariffs, while supporting a hardline against China on Taiwan? 2 months ago:
Even if tariffs worked the way Trump wanted and it magically brings all this manufacturing back to the USA, it will still cause extreme inflation in the USA. The reason foreign goods are so cheap? Dirt cheap labor. To manufacture these goods in the USA would mean orders of magnitude higher labor costs and ultimately orders of magnitude higher price of goods to the consumer. Inflation.
- Comment on How can you oppose tariffs, while supporting a hardline against China on Taiwan? 2 months ago:
If you don’t support tariffs to bring back manufacturing jobs domestically
Do they even accomplish this?
“Chinese exports have a large impact on our economy, therefore you have to either support tariffs or let them do anything they want” 🤡 take

Older subarus are a high value and age well. I would expect it to hold decent value but that is crazy to be worth more 5 years later

I mean yeah, that’s why I said beater. I just wouldn’t expect someone young or looking for a first car to be buying a current model year with low miles anyway.
- Comment on Based on a true story 2 months ago:
Is cash for a beater car no longer an option? I don’t want to be a “less avocado toast more bootstraps” person but a loan for a used car sounds wild to me. Maybe I’m out of touch. My vehicle is old enough to drink

Nah you’re 100% in the wrong here, and it’s wild that you bring up respect, as if this attitude and behavior isn’t incredibly disrespectful. Calling someone is literally not disrespectful. What the fuck is wrong with people
