- Comment on What are some good examples of "Where the fuck do you go" kind of games? 3 days ago:
The original Bard’s Tale
Me and my best friend literally spent a month of near nightly playing trying to get through the first in-town dungeon
Daggerfall also fits the bill

Maybe the real market leader desktop OS is one you don’t need to spend a quarter of all your waking hours learning how to maintenance.

The ‘real’ linux user should be everyone, that’s the point
- Comment on [Opinion] Windows isn't an OS, it's a bad habit that wants to become an addiction 1 week ago:
Until you can get the grannies to adopt, linux will always be a novelty for desktops
That’s the point I was trying to make
And in true linux fanatic fashion, you are incapable of understanding just how terrible a product linux in general is

Mint as easy as it is is not a drop in replacement
- Comment on [Opinion] Windows isn't an OS, it's a bad habit that wants to become an addiction 1 week ago:
Generous to call that an OS
- Comment on [Opinion] Windows isn't an OS, it's a bad habit that wants to become an addiction 1 week ago:
Ok then you linux nerds should put together a drop in replacement distro that grannies can use
Until then you will always be hobbyists

sounds like a forgotten minecraft realms host
- Comment on 4chan Is Dead. Its Toxic Legacy Is Everywhere 2 weeks ago:
It’s more that they colonized than normalized, meaning they kept shitting up the place until nearly everyone not racist left in disgust
Then they looked around and saw mostly racist posts and concluded that it was ‘normal’ and then Steve Bannon directed all their ambient anger towards Gamergate and the rest is history, disgusting bigoted history.

What the fuck are you talking about? Stormfront came in in 2012 and it’s been nazis all the way down since

Holy SHIT is the author full of himself
- Comment on Almost 19% of Japanese people in their 20s have spent so much money on gacha they struggled with covering living expenses, survey reveals - AUTOMATON WEST 2 weeks ago:
I have spent thousands in gacha, though I’m more a ‘dolphin’ than a whale
Was #1 on server 10 and 11 in Memento Mori for a while, ran the top guilds there (NORTH and TRUE NORTH). It was really fun till one of our shift guild leaders usurped the guild and kicked half of the team on the night of our biggest Mass Combat push, losing us most of our territory. So I quit and got very, VERY bitter
That was 2 years ago and the only gacha I’ve played since is Pokemon Pocket tho as f2p this time (it is very generous)
If you want to know anything about dolphin/whale action in Memento Mori, Blue Archive or Reverse 1999 I’ll answer any questions

These gacha companies pay ridiculous amounts of money for psych profile info specifically to target vulnerable individuals, yet individuals don’t have that same kind of access or understanding
This is NOT a both sides thing.

Yeah American is a victim blaming culture
- Comment on Almost 19% of Japanese people in their 20s have spent so much money on gacha they struggled with covering living expenses, survey reveals - AUTOMATON WEST 2 weeks ago:
Almost as if capitalism was specifically designed to shuffle all wealth from the bottom to the top in a neverending ratchet of human degradation and exploitation
- Comment on $666 edition of Doom includes game box that, itself, plays Doom 3 weeks ago:
There are more millionaires around now than ever before
Granted nearly all of them are the children of other millionaires and billionaires
That’s who the world caters to now, not normal people
- Comment on Eternal Darkness' infamous sanity system patent has expired - so can anyone now copy it? 3 weeks ago:
Sure we all agree but the dumbshits making the rules 1) Have no idea about technology older than color television and 2) Are really only interested in preserving corporate profitability
- Comment on Eternal Darkness' infamous sanity system patent has expired - so can anyone now copy it? 3 weeks ago:
Yeah well when the copyright courts agreed to Namco’s patent on loading screen minigames it kind of freaked everyone out back then and people patented every dumbshit thing. For a short time Amazon tried to patent the single click purchase

That’s actually pretty valid
- Comment on Teachers warn AI is impacting students' critical thinking 5 weeks ago:
Words have meaning, so if you don’t want to believe that, we can’t have a conversation.
- Comment on Teachers warn AI is impacting students' critical thinking 5 weeks ago:
It’s not eugenics if it happens nautrally
- Comment on Teachers warn AI is impacting students' critical thinking 5 weeks ago:
Public education has been deliberately stripped of critical thinking concepts by half a century of conservative fuckery, don’t pretend this is a new thing
- Comment on Teachers warn AI is impacting students' critical thinking 5 weeks ago:
You’re a fool if you don’t think our modern public education system is deliberately fucked by half a century of persistent conservative fuckery
- Comment on Teachers warn AI is impacting students' critical thinking 5 weeks ago:
Good
It’s been far too long we’ve coddled the stupid
Let them fail
Let the genuine thinking kids get the time and resources
Society got rid of Natural Selection and now we are paying the price

You have some ancient opal but very few people find it
- Comment on Rock Identification 5 weeks ago:
Not only under pressure but under very slow cooling as what happens in the centers of asteroids
The rhomboid crystal structure of meteor iron was set long before that particular rock entered our atmosphere and is visible in many, MANY museum pieces.
- Comment on How modern is it to have "sympathetic" portrayals of Hell? 6 months ago:
Crunchy Granola: 1) A phrase used in the 70s to describe the hippiest of the hippies, and 2) A lesser used DnD reference to 'C’haotic 'G’ood, which overlaps with 1 and began shortly after the 70s, probably as Gygax and friends were pretty counterculture.
- Comment on How modern is it to have "sympathetic" portrayals of Hell? 6 months ago:
That’s because he’s the fucking Demiurge in Gnosticism you armchair theist
- Comment on How do I avoid enshitification of my keyboard and mouse 7 months ago:
No I hate linux too because I have a tendency to attribute human qualities to nonhuman entities.
