- Comment on Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted – Pre-Order Trailer 6 days ago:
The existence of this game was leaked a week back, not surprising.
While my money won’t touch anything involving EA related, I’m really afraid of what they might do to the game’s mobile ports (that is if they even port itl
- Comment on AI-generated search result descriptions 2 weeks ago:
There’s a reason why academic source citations recite which page are the citations from. Looking where exactly is the citation referenced from a first glance is a better experience than skimming through the whole source.
Yes, clicking at the post could help with the context since it’s mostly not that long. But seeing what exactly it references based on your search query is considerably more helpful than seeing just its summary.
- Comment on AI-generated search result descriptions 2 weeks ago:
The problem is when you’re searching up a problem, you typically want its whole context. If you need AI summarizarions, you would instead ask for it from your preferred AI, not search it.

It shows on the mod list, are you sure it’s not working?
- Comment on What game has the best tutorial, in your opinion? 1 month ago:
A Dance of Fire and Ice is the best one. You get how the game works within the main menu itself, songs can have their own tutorials for specific patterns later on the song but are fully skippable.
Rhythm Doctor also has really good tutorials, a fully skippable tutorial that tells you anything newly introduced in the upcoming track
- Comment on Banned across multiple communities, posts deleted, for upsetting a mod 1 month ago:
specific communities can have their own rules so while a ban on that community is fair, using it to ban on unrelated communities is not. Definetly a PTB
- Comment on Garfield Kart 2 – All You Can Drift – Teaser 2 months ago:
Microids has organised quite a few competitions for its players in the past year on Garfield Kart-Furious Racing, which was weird considering the game didn’t have much player activity. I even joined a few of them for laughs, and i guess that’s why it gave priority to Steam’s reccomendations; the game’s announcement showed instantly on my Steam’s “What’s New” tab.
That’s very clever marketing, I’ll give them that.

- Comment on what’s the difference between “he died” and “he’s dead”? 2 months ago:
While they both have the same meaning; he died implies knowledge of the death before, he’s dead fits more when you’ve just figured out that the person in question is dead.

- Comment on Wait, that game is still playable online? 2 months ago:
The bot issue is resolved, cheater players not so much, but it’s way less problematic than CS2 since reports actually can lead to bans.
- Comment on My password is not accepted because it is too long 2 months ago:
Think of it from a random guess perspective. Guessing a number randomly generated between 0-16 is easier than guessing one between 0-8.
Now think that all passwords are stored in certain amount of bits, so let’s compare 4 and 8 bits.
Each bit has a chance to be either 0 or 1, so guessing a single bit’s possibility is 1/2.
Guessing the correct orientation of 4 different bits takes 1/2^4^ = 1/16 Guessing the correct orientation of 8 different bits takes 1/2^8^ = 1/256

- Comment on Yuri Horii didn't confirm Chrono Trigger remake, it was a mistranslation 2 months ago:
Yea, honestly not surprising.
- Comment on Chrono Trigger Remake Seemingly Confirmed By Yuji Horii 2 months ago:
This is the only game I’d pay 60$ on release date.
The source of this claim is very sketchy (a reddit post that gives the vibes of ‘yo guys i heard gaben at a conference say 3 look its his photo’), but I really hope it’s an actual thing.

Pretty much a direct link downloader from torrent sites. They download the content, then provide direct download links to the user, which could make access to these files much easier for various integrations (most notably, Kodi).

- Comment on why are posts from my Egyptian chat getting downvoted? 3 months ago:
There is a language filter available that you aren’t applying. Users can adjust from their profile settings which language they want to see, however your posts are marked as English despite being Egyptian, so these posts get forwarded to English speakers’ All feed, which they do not understand and so they might downvote

- Comment on Need feedback for my video! 3 months ago:
The video pace feels way too slow and doesnt make the progress interesting to watch. I would reccomend you to watch this as a good reference for the pace you should aim to achieve at your videos. The AI voice cannot compare to how you can retale what you did about the project. Think of it like you’re presenting your work to your friends.
On the visual part, avoid showing the developer UI and show what you have done from the perspective of a player wanting to try the game. I’ve used the video in question becuase, it mostly has footage from the game itself and a viewer with no experience in development at all can tell what work has been done outright. You’re not doing a development tutorial after all.

- Comment on Are most people here left-wing? 3 months ago:
I’m not calling Kurds terrorists. I’m calling seperatist groups like PKK terrorists. Any Kurd citizen living in Turkey is more than welcome to voice their opinions, which they do via own political party (which holds third to fourth place in most polls conducted recently.), I believe they’re trying to negotiate a peace deal without dividing the country. There are certainly things I disagree with their methods, but peace will be better than war overall.
I am not against immigrants themselves having basic rights, but I don’t see the point in giving them extra benefits, life is sink or swim anywhere. Why does my taxes fund immigrants who have made 9 kids they know they cant afford to get extra funding from the government? Why people who cannot read Turkish at all are appointed citizenship to vote to see who governs my country? Fuck that.
- Comment on Are most people here left-wing? 3 months ago:
Mustafa Kemal has absolutely nothing to do with any genocide when the whole thing occured under Ottoman Empire (specifically, under Enver Pasha’s command), CHP is one of the parties that rallied the protests against Erdogan, and want better laws for all sorts of people like lgbtq, immigrants and kurds.
I personally disagree with giving more rights to immigrants and don’t like the idea of negotiations with terrorist organizations to divide the country, but am in favor of improving any citizen’s life overall regardless of their sex, religion or ethnicity.
