- Comment on Subnautica's Original Creators Have Been Removed From Unknown Worlds "Effective Immediately", As Krafton Makes Concerning Leadership Changes 2 days ago:
Yup, sounds like I need to wait for quite a few patches and some real reviews before I buy
Kerbal Space Program 2Subnautica 2 - Comment on when you work in an interdisciplinary institution: 1 week ago:
And holding up that entire stack is philosophy.
- Comment on Make dinosaurs weirder 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, this is why people don’t trust science. They look at the surface level of the PRESS RELEASE and then assume scientists are just making shit up.
There’s a ton of work done behind the pictures and there’s lots of revisions and changes as new evidence comes in. AND there is disclaimers on ever single “artist rendition”
Science is fucking hard, and the pretty pictures of the press release are just the fun parts that they use to advertise their hard work.
Then people take a brief look at the picture, call bullshit, then go smear them online.
- Comment on If you can't make it yourself, store bought is fine 2 weeks ago:
Just inject it straight into your brain
- Comment on Should I just lie on job applications and say I have a college degree? 4 weeks ago:
If it’s a larger corporation, then you might get fired later no matter what, if it comes out. HR policy might require it.
If it’s a smaller corporation, it probably isn’t necessary.
I wouldn’t chance it.
- Comment on Stardew Valley creator says he might make Stardew Valley 2 1 month ago:
I think we’d all enjoy a fresh take on SDV. There’s probably a ton he’d like to change, but can’t without having to rework the whole thing.
He did a fantastic job making the game what it is by adding slowly to the game, but it’s certainly pretty disjointed and limited in a lot of ways.
- Comment on What is this specific kind of sheet called? 1 month ago:
Tried to steal a sheet and it escalated badly.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
Then yes.
- Comment on Academic email signatures 2 months ago:
Then a Mac user forwards your email to someone and your email header doesn’t show your email address in the forward and nobody down the line knows who sent the original email.
- Comment on Academic email signatures 2 months ago:
Cause when your email gets forwarded, the header doesn’t always go with it.
I’ve had to start putting my email address in my signature due to people not being able to contact me cause of that.
- Comment on Subnautica 2 teases new creatures and co-op among the coral 2 months ago:
This is a game I’m not going to preorder, but watch for a few months until the bugs are worked out, then when it’s 20% off I’ll play the shit out of it!
- Comment on 'I found a cool GPS alternative nobody knows about' - Level 2 Jeff 2 months ago:
BPS transmits over ATSC television towers, but it’s only on in a handful of places.

Not a lot of into yet, but hopefully Jeff will have some neat videos coming.
- Comment on Hottest Star Trek character? 2 months ago:
I guess the discussion is over, cause I find no fault with these selections.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
By not filming back to back.
It could be that each round is a different day.
- Comment on Why do some say they own or have bought something that they technically haven't (e.g. domain names, expensive things, etc.)? 2 months ago:
If you’re behind $1000 in taxes for a $250000 house doesn’t mean the government takes your whole house and you get nothing.
They typically sell it at auction and you get the leftovers.
www.michigan.gov/taxes/…/forfeiture-foreclosureIf you’ve lived in the house after a lifetime, you’d either have to be extremely behind in taxes, have not maintained the house, or both, for it to be a complete loss.
- Comment on Today's Survey. One point for everything that you have NEVER DONE 2 months ago:
I write an average of about 3 checks per month, even now.
- Comment on 90s band alignment chart 2 months ago:
Easy, be me.
- Comment on Why DO credit card companies make a stink about adult content anyway? 3 months ago:
PH purge was more about being unable to validate that the content was consensual/legal.
- Comment on No more Bosch for me.. 3 months ago:
He’s talking about how Jeff said he needs a dishwasher because hand washing dishes takes 1.5 hours a day otherwise (and is a waste of water and energy)
- Comment on You really missed out if you are too young to remember this 3 months ago:
You want to listen to some Cake today? Sure you do.
- Comment on woolly mice on rice all nice 3 months ago:
But why is there a… rock? donut hole? geode? Next to the wooly mouse? I feel like it’s a pun I’m missing.
- Comment on does someone who lives very far away from me (for example 1900 miles) see the same night sky as me? (as in moon, stars, etc) 3 months ago:
If you lived 1900 miles West or East, you would see the same sky, just at different times. In this case, the difference in timezones would approximately be the difference in the sky you see. So if your husband is 3 hours ahead, he’d see the same sky about 3 hours before you.
If you lived 1900 miles north or south of each other, your horizon could be pretty different. But the stars directly overhead would be pretty similar.
If you lived on opposite sides of the equator, you might start to see different angles of the sky such that things directly overhead look flipped upside down. People in the southern hemesphere see the moon as upside down to people in the northern hemesphere.
- Comment on Realistically, how feasible is it to 100% boycott a massive corporation (such as Amazon) for an extended period of time? 3 months ago:
Amazon doesn’t make anything. There’s very little on Amazon that can’t be purchased somewhere else.
- Comment on The landlord special 3 months ago:
This is 100% a painter who’s worked with this person/company before. In the contract I’m betting it says “before we paint, remove all utilities and covers from the wall, anything left will be painted”
The first six times they did the work, stuff was left up, and they spent an hour removing everything before they started. This time, they said fuck it. We told you to take it down, this is what you’re getting now.
- Comment on Does it make sense to buy a lifetime supply of honey? 3 months ago:
If the bees die off, you’re going to have a much bigger problem than lack of honey.
- Comment on Who gets all the tariff money about to be collected from US citizens buying products from Canada? 3 months ago:
The referee assigns points to teams, but doesn’t need to collect those points from another team or earn them to assign them out.
It’s a decent metaphor.
- Comment on How does one go about curing a pill hangover? Never had one but a patient of me asked me this and I had no answer. I know how to get over alcohol hangover but not a pill hangover? 3 months ago:
Patient?
- Comment on EA has open sourced Command & Conquer: Red Alert under GPLv3 4 months ago:
Fallout source is gone too. There was just no reliable way to store source code back then, a lot of times it was just one of the developers that had it sitting in a desk drawer.
If it’s new enough, maybe a burnt CD.
- Comment on EA has open sourced Command & Conquer: Red Alert under GPLv3 4 months ago:
Sometimes licenses get in the way, it’s possible they bought em engine or tech from a 3rd party and don’t have the legal standing (or don’t know if they do or not) to release the source.
- Comment on I always suspected that these never actually cleaned anything 4 months ago:
Not all cd players had an accessible lens. A car deck had a slot insert and there was no way to get at the lens without disassembling the whole thing.
Computer CD players also had a tray that extended so the lens was mostly hidden.
Boomboxes and portable CD players had pop up lids where you could see the lens, but there were probably an equal number of players where you couldn’t access it.
