I always thought there’s a line people draw when they do bdsm so the fun doesn’t become torture.
You just crossed it using a 6m pole in order to land as far as possible from the line.

Oh well, looks like it’ll be another gaming gen in which I will buy zero AAA games.

- Comment on Are there any games like Starfield? 1 week ago:
Given the history of these guys, I am not gonna believe it until I see the game released and in the stores. Until then, as everything around star citizen, this is vaporware aimed at milking the whales that keep giving them money.
- Comment on Are there any games like Starfield? 1 week ago:
A year or twenty. Given how long they are taking, I wouldn’t be surprised if the game was never released.
- Comment on Can I pay someone to add a specific feature to an open source app? 1 week ago:
Unless you live in a country where you are not allowed to write code or to pay other people, I don’t see why you couldn’t pay someone to do something that is not illegal in your stead

- Comment on Anon is devilish 1 week ago:
A velociraptor would never eat or promote eating chicken, that would be like promoting, idk, eating your own cousin (the one you don’t see since that last Thanksgiving, some years ago, when your uncle (their father) started talking about how dinosaurs don’t exist because earth is 2000 years old, got kicked from your house and decided to cut ties).

Then you started adding two nuggets, right?
- Comment on What makes a video game triple A (AAA)? 3 weeks ago:
Indie games don’t have shareholders demanding extra-short term profits to please, they can afford to innovate. An AAA game needs to pay the shareholders as fast as possible, and how to do it? Well, the way they do it now; take your cod, or fifa, or whatever AAA ip you want and you’ll see how the patterns repeat in all of them.
AAA games are the fast food of videogaming.
- Comment on What makes a video game triple A (AAA)? 3 weeks ago:
Ideally, it has to be a big publisher that spends a ton of money on it.
In truth, an AAA game can be spotted by a price tag of over 60 €/USD, at least one season pass, 3+ different editions, a huge day-1 patch and a lack of anything that’s not predatory monetization of any remaining gameplay elements.
- Comment on What is the point of a disorder label that can vary from simply being dyslexic to having Prader-Willi syndrome? 4 weeks ago:
I’ve been diagnosed at the tender age of 36, because my lovely parents didn’t give a fuck about all the signals and the teachers “hints”.
Up until then, it’s been hell, and I’m not exagerating when I say that I don’t know how I made it this far in life. When fou are one of the “lucky” ones that only suffer from what is now called “functional” autism (aka there is no cognitive disability), you struggle with most social aspects, you torture yourself thinking you are weird, you hate yourself because it’s obvious (only for yourself) that there is something wrong with you that you can’t understand.
A diagnosis is not a death sentence but an answer to what is happening in your brain to make it work differently. Now, I am starting to get help, I am asking for acomodations that make my life easier and I understand what is happening in my head. And most important, I’m not ashamed anymore when my “weirdness” leaks out because I understand it.
- Comment on I walked all over the damn store looking for butter 4 weeks ago:
A supermarket I go to sometimes around a year ago decided to “reorganize” everything. The first day I went there after the reorganization I almost suffered a meltdown. You know where they put the biscuits and cookies?
You guessed it! In the same aisle than stationery and printer ink. I am not kidding, the psychopath who did this, for some reason decided that printer ink was somehow related to breakfast biscuits.
