Yep! Too many people get really bent out of shape over details that don’t matter.
I watched these idiots argue over the algae in the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool for 10 minutes about why it’s like that. These two idiots were in their 30s and worked dead end jobs.
- Comment on Epic Games unveils Launcher V2 in re-attempt to topple Steam, says redesigned storefront is up to 6.5x faster — promises player profiles, user reviews, universal controller support, and much more 2 days ago:
Because they knew they’ll get bombarded with people shitting on the epic version and recommending the steam version over and over.
- Comment on UPDATE: I'm a dev who has been working on my game for 2 years and my game title appeared on another Steam game as they plan to release before I do. 3 days ago:
What a positive spin!
Im so used to hearing stories about some slop company stealing game ideas and being the first to market, especially after flappy bird and 2048.
To hear it was a coincidence makes me happy and that you two came to a middle ground. That’s awesome and hoping the best of success for the two of you!

Maybe. I would absolutely play a video game about Archer (from the show Archer), who is an incredibly competent asshole spy.

Is my genitals feeling spikey or is it a soft smelling flower today?

The outfits/costumes in mha are fine. But some like hers… Like manga artist bro… it’s a high school.

You get massive boobage and huge dong
- Comment on The 1996 experience 1 week ago:
Furry was a new concept for me in the 2010s. Draw something like this, and they flag you.
If you drew images like this in the 90s, did most people call it out or did they give you the ol’ “nice!” Comment?
- Comment on Data centers get tax breaks. Not you though. 1 week ago:
Funny enough, most states aren’t MAGA. Even Texas.
Gerrymandering and fucking with votes is how conservatives have been in power.
- Comment on Valheim 1.0 & Deep North: Sept 9. 1 week ago:
Bought it during COVID and it was AMAZING, even with just three biomes. But Im exhausted.
The updates weren’t as impressive. Yes, there was a lot of new stuff. But they took a long time. A really long time. And it didn’t feel like they improved on a lot of things, rather than expand on it.
After months after Valheim was released (in early access) V Rising and a bunch of other games also came out (also in early access).
Many of them shipped a 1.0 already, and improved on their early access version greatly.
Heck, Even games inspired by Valheim are nearing the finish line and have better features. Enshrouded is already light-years ahead.
- Comment on Valve to no longer offer physical gift cards due to scammers 1 week ago:
This sucks. I was reading how about fraudsters buy counterstrike items to launder money and it’s crazy. They must have found steam cards are a huge part of the operation too.
I just want an alternative to the whole VISA/Mastercard BS and this one was the easiest.
- Comment on Email came out of nowhere 2 weeks ago:
It’s so crazy that the dev team even went into damage control to point out that it was not them.
That Slavic team probably feeling like crap today because of something GoG did.
- Comment on Email came out of nowhere 2 weeks ago:
This is what’s so funny.
That meme where Steam literally does nothing while their competitors shoot themselves in the foot is supposed to be a joke.
- Comment on Email came out of nowhere 2 weeks ago:
Even if it was sent maliciously and intentionally, if they apologize and it doesn’t happen again I’m not going to get bent out of shape. These email campaigns are run by peons low on the totem pole and hardly get any thorough review.
It is not run by peons. Email marketing is a major source of revenue for companies. It’s one of the main pillars of communication that’s directly to actual engaged customers.
At my job, the ad copywriters, the PR team and the email marketers control all messaging of the brand. Everyone else (the website content team, the social media team, etc) goes to them for validation and content checks. It’s a big deal.

Don’t let that stop you.
This is messed up, as a contributor to their Patreon to preserve games, I wrote some pretty harsh words.

In not linking reddit, which has way more details about how it went about.

In email marketing, you typically send emails in batches. Sometimes for A/B testing, other times to avoid spam catchers/overloading the system. Or sometimes for geo location purposes (like everyone gets the email at 8am, so it batches it to time zone)
The GoG reps said they sent it to a small batch and after the call out, stop the email sends and fixed it.

Racists wil Fuck around and then plead ignorance to avoid Finding Out.
- Comment on Email came out of nowhere 2 weeks ago:
My favorite part was that GoG was told they cannot send this email in Germany because it would break the Nazi rule so they purposely get blocked their emails to getting to Germany.
In other words, they knew.

I have family members who work in costume design for TV and film. So many people wear wigs. Men, women, animals.

Yeah they’re the cucks who bullied some kid over magic cards.
- Comment on Alpha AF 2 weeks ago:
There was that meme where a guy said he was the most straight person ever because in college, he blew a guy, and then had sex with him, and both times, he hated it.
So he was 100% confident that he was straight. So if you never had gay sex, you’ll never know and so you’re just a uncertain straight.

Would it change your opinion of these weirdos?

- Comment on Is there an "Avoid Amazon" community for people who want to support smaller online retailers? 4 weeks ago:
Yep! The monopoly is strong.
Sometimes, the item directly from the company website use Amazon to ship it.
- Comment on Is it weird that I cringe whenever someone calls my name and I avoid using peoples names when talking to them? 5 weeks ago:
It may be possible that a work incident has made it so hearing your name in passing making you twitch is because it’s always used in a non-positive way.
I worked at a toxic workplace and if I ever heard my name that wasn’t directly at me, it was because someone was sharing drama that involved me. Or I was being mocked. Or worse, they were preparing to rip into me.
My new job, everyone is pretty positive and if I hear my name across the hall, I’m excited.
