The issue here is that the per weight pricing listed is half of what it should be.

Just… don’t pay attention to it? It’s something that interests other people. Imagine if somebody said that about something you liked that they had no interest in.

I don’t want to read entrails for clues about the future
But, you don’t have to. This is them hinting about a upcoming announcement of a release date. For the average player like you and me, it’s just the announcement itself that we need, and we’ll get that.
- Comment on Can someone explain to me how a ventilation fan can suck LESS when on high compared to low? 1 week ago:
At worst though, it should be pulling in as little air as when on low, not less.

So, if the same item had been sold at twice the price, that would have been fine?

That was a great analysis you did of the problem
- Comment on Doom on a CAPTCHA is the most frustrating though admittedly raddest way to prove your humanity to an algorithm 2 weeks ago:
Me and my cousins absolutely used strafe back in the early 90s. And forwards. And backwards. We were so excited every time we got into a gunfight we would have moved vertically too if there was an option for it.
- Comment on Frostpunk creators cancel "Project 8" and lay off staff amid concerns that "narrative-driven, story-rich games" don't sell 4 weeks ago:
If Frostpunk is their idea of a “narrative-driven, story-rich game”, I can see why they have concerns.

That may have been true a decade ago, but nowadays unless you’re trying to squeeze out top-tier graphics performance (which isn’t the case with this game) you only need to worry about the control scheme. The code can be compiled for multiple platforms.
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 Is Being Review Bombed By Chinese Gamers After The Game Awards 5 weeks ago:
IMO, it does. Awards showcase and highlight ‘best of’ games, but what’s the point of highlighting a game that is inaccessible to a significant portion of the gaming community? You could potentially make the argument that their purpose is more towards recognising the efforts and success of the devs, but that’s not the aspect of awards that are being discussed in this context.

And also a PS5 exclusive. Eww
- Comment on PEGI gives Balatro an 18+ rating for gambling imagery 5 weeks ago:
Ah. I’m guessing most people missed the joke :)
- Comment on PEGI gives Balatro an 18+ rating for gambling imagery 5 weeks ago:
Wut? Pan European Game Information (PEGI) is the European equivalent of ESRB. Their ratings matter because they have an obvious bias against indies, which hurts their sales.

Jesus I’m so glad I moved to Linux

There’s certainly something stunning and wonderful in that picture all right

OP edited their post with a link. It’s an entirely different topic, it’s about germs on paper towels coming from the factory.
- Comment on Germ Blaster 1 month ago:
First time I’m seeing a claim that paper towels spread more germs. Got a source to back that up?

You’re making the assumption that they haven’t already jacked the rates up to the max the market will support

What in the comments is debunking the title? All I see is speculation
- Comment on I hate when a PC game is ONLY available on Epic Games store 1 month ago:
I’ve experienced losing my old email address, and all traces of my old digital identity. They went above and beyond to work with me till I could prove to their satisfaction that I was the original owner of the account, then restored it to me. Steam support is generally amazing.

Ah. I was not expecting numbers for 2023 under a 2003 year heading.
- Comment on I hate when a PC game is ONLY available on Epic Games store 1 month ago:
Steam has an estimated revenue of 8.6bn out of PC gaming’s overall 45bn.
Do you have a source on that? I’d love to quote it in future

insanely involved with manipulation of wavelengths of light vs just getting bigger or growing more claws or something similarly simple, biologically speaking.
Nature did. That’s how speciation works. We’re just focusing on the shiny beetles because they grab our attention and the big dung beetles with big horns don’t.
Also, as far as evolution is concerned? There’s nothing insane about it, they’re all equally simple. You’re thinking of it from the perspective of industrialisation, and how tough it would be for us to manufacture such materials. That’s not the viewpoint evolution cares about, if it can be grown it obviously isn’t difficult to do.
How do these processes which use quantum mechanics and wild optical physics become an innate part of nature to begin with.
There are no quantum mechanics involved. And the physics are not wild, they’re the basic laws of physics. It’s only humans that assign difficulty and exoticness to these mechanisms because our technology base is incapable of reproducing it easily.

So, 13 years down the road, it’s still too early to buy and play Terraria. Gotta wait till Redigit drops dead and hope nobody else picks up his mantle and releases more content for the game.
You know, there’s still new editions of Tetris coming out with twists…
