Aim for flat angles on the porcelain, I guess.

You’re making it gross.

No, not if you sit down.

Perfect aim still splatters small droplets all around. Try placing a newspaper next to your toilet.
- Comment on Hmm this "unisex" bathroom seems biased... 2 days ago:
Extremely silly post. Reactionary gender war nonsense. Everyone can and does and should sit down, that’s why it’s unisex. Stop hitching your identity and ego to the way your dad told you to piss.

You can say it’s a bad deal, they are mismanaging the project etc. but calling it a scam is just hyperbole.
- Comment on Borderlands 4 Launches To Mostly Negative Steam Reviews Over Performance Issues And Crashing 6 days ago:
Yeah the whole series is geared towards co-op, though the first a bit less so than the sequels.
Gotta say I’m surprised people report so many challenges with the games. I’ve played all four mainline titles, three of them in co-op, and rarely had session troubles and never performance issues.
- Comment on Reddit lost it 1 week ago:
Yeah that’s not what they mean. They mean teaching an llm on recorded texts and speeches from a person, then instruct it to pretend to be that person. Like that AI murder victim “testimony” that was permitted to be shown in court as “evidence” some time ago.

Exactly, none of them are innocent, so that part is just plain irony. “hypothetically terrorize” makes sense because simply identifying as anti-fascist can get you on terror watch lists these days.

How dare you hypothetically terrorize innocent fascists!

So reality is only your lived experience, not that of others?
- Comment on Battlefield 6 cheats day 1 of early access. Depite kernel level anti cheat, forced secure boot TPM 2.0 5 weeks ago:
Cheating humans already perform closely enough to trick such a system. Many cheaters are smart enough to use an aimbot only for a split-second to nail the flick. With a tiny bit of random offset, those inputs indistinguishable from a high-skill player.

Stripe can also go fuck itself and die, thanks
- Comment on Mastercard release a statement about game stores, payment processors and adult content 1 month ago:
Unfortunately they are indeed big players, Stripe where people use credit cards and PayPal everywhere else. Both horrible companies that we’d be a lot better off if replaced with privacy-respecting alternatives.

Yes that is absolutely the norm in such communities. It was the same for subreddits that went default.
Obviously you can’t trace every single up-/downvote and comment to a certain gender, but it’s very apparent from the content of comments and the general tone. That’s the whole issue.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
I entirely agree. Power dynamics and questions of projected vs chosen identities add whole new dimensions to the matter. I restricted myself to this limited analogy to avoid losing those who aren’t ready for that conversation and insist on focusing on individualist perspectives.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
We’re all human but that doesn’t erase systemic issues. And not being effectively brigaded is all they ask for.

Imagine every public linux forum overrun by 90% Windows user,s and you might just begin to understand.

“male scum” oof. Cool it with the self-victimization mate.
If you genuinely don’t understand why it’s helpful to have both kinds of spaces and not something to get mad about, I’m happy to explain. But some good-faith effort on your part is required.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Consider what the word “majority” means and how that impacts the balance of such discussions. Especially on a platform where people vote on each other’s comments.
In the Linux forum example, the occasional “as a Windows user…” comment isn’t a problem, but it does become one when it makes up 80-90% of comments / visitors. Try to understand how this shapes a community when the fewer directly affected people are annoyed by this and stop contributing.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
It’s not ironic at all. I’m guessing you have never been in a setting that would have benefitted from such a policy.
I don’t find it too difficult to comprehend why it’s useful to have spaces where minority-focused topics are discussed by everyone, alongside other spaces where the same topics are discussed primarily by the minority in question. Not if you understand what the words “minority” and “majority” mean anyway.

Steam itself shows the rankings, I believe.

Yep, it loops between exploration and basebuilding / crafting.
The exploration part is what usually gets people hooked because the alien underwater setting is amazing. The other stuff is more to give you a reason to stick around for longer, and pace your exploration since need to unlock things at certain points.

Now I’m imagining being conceived between two psych ward patients and I’m like… really trying not to sound judgemental, but that’s not great odds for the baby both in terms of a stable and nurturing environment growing up, and a genetic predisposition towards mental instability later in life.

No it’s completely normal while sleeping.

It’s mostly developers that benefit from RT long-term. Not now while it’s optional, but once it becomes a requirement, they can cut a couple of time-intensive steps from the development pipeline.
