• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Suspecting AI cheating, Ivy League prof ordered an in-person final; scores fell 50%⁩ ⁨⁨20⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  I was working while I went through it and it was hell. Now that I have all this knowledge crammed in my tiny brain it is easy to take the higher road, but I do wonder if I had a chance to cheat, if I wouldn't rather do that than mixing sleep deprivation and stimulants to try to keep my Cs afloat.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I must con(FeS₂), this sparked a laugh⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Quite ironic.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I read somewhere a while back that most or at least half of California wildfires are cause by faulty electrical company equipment. Is this true? And how come no one has ever reported it?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You're confusing wildfires with bushfires.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do your ears hang low⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  As the Olympics should be.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is leadership valued so much over expertise?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I the pre-Jack Welch America, it was very common to have highly-skilled, very senior technical people making almost as much (and in some cases, more) than the CEO or the company president. This included architects, lawyers, accountants, engineers and any person that was deemed invaluable to the company.

  Fuck Jack Welch and fuck MBAs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I hate obscure tech issues!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Worse are those comments that have an edit saying: "Never mind, I figured it out."

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨20 Jobs that people once thought were irreplaceable are now just memories⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I find it endearing: Cigar factory workers, mostly women, hired collectively someone to read to them to keep them entertained, and in some cases, educated. While I guess you can get a similar experience with audiobooks, if it was me, I would miss the sense of community and live performing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When Other Games Chased Polygons, Blade Runner Chased Atmosphere⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wasn't there some drama related to the enhanced version, similarly to what happened with Gabriel Knight?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨007 First Light review – a triumphant James Bond game made by obsessive fans⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What's that? Huh? Probably the wind.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there any such thing as "edutainment" shows for adults?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  But the pitt is so much information per minute, after one episode is done I barely rememver half of it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there any such thing as "edutainment" shows for adults?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Kurzgesagt is half the time propaganda.

  I mean they sucked Gates' dick so hard it turned blue.

  I have spent a lifetime watching birds, and this is the first time I learned about this.

  Thanks

  An adult is a kid with bills to pay.

  Some dextrous love for Dexter's Lab?

  I thought that in order to be a train they should be connected to each other.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sega has canceled development of its ‘super game’, as it pivots away from live service games | VGC⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The market has shown time and time again there's a place for good 2D games or 3D games that aren't using bleeding edge graphics.

  Rolling thunder, Golden Axe, Outrun, Eternal Champions, Bonanza Bros..

  There are many abandoned great franchises that in the right hands (see the latest Shinobi) would do great IMO.

  You know, one from reality itself.

  That woman was done dirty with probably the macro with the worst angle possible.

  You should start licking batteries, to build resistence.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I wouldn't say that nature is cruel, but amoral and chaotic, with a focus on trying all the venues for survival, whith some for moral beings like us, seemingly cruel.

  When I did experimentation, I often focused on minimizing harm. I also try doing as much good as I am doing "bad". That helps me deal with this.

  Being able to filter what works from what doesn't is a great way of weeding out possible disappointments.

  I wish though they were a bit more friendly towards Proton/Wine. Knowing what games are compatible and to what degree before purchasing them would make me happier.
