• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This guy managed the movie theater I worked at in high school.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  I would dress fancy if the world were worthy of it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It wouldn’t change a thing. They literally already did that in the Vietnam war

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨stress⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  They say that so they don’t have to figure out what’s actually wrong with you in the corporate-designated 15 minute appointment

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨my own personal Chatgpt⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, how is that fundamentally different from a deterministic universe?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If Steam were to shut down tomorrow how much money would you have lost in total on games / DLC ??⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Only about 15%. It’s not as many as people think

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's in the files⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Obama

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A perfect world⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Reminds me of when I was a kid and wondered why commuters going in opposite directions didn’t just stay where they are and do each others’ jobs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Game suggestions: Downvote any game you've heard of before⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Makes me happy to see this so downvoted. I didn’t expect that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Game suggestions: Downvote any game you've heard of before⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I always find myself wishing Iji got half as much recognition as Cave Story. It deserves it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I am this pole⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This is exactly what that person’s nemesis would say. Possibly the very same person who turned them into a pole.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Single player games⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve recently been playing Tales of Maj’Eyal and it’s such a nice vibe. There’s an in-game chat for people just going about playing their single-player adventures, generally filled with kind and intelligent people. The game is complex enough that being able to ask questions in the chat is a nice option.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This is peak graphics and I'm not joking⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Back when developers considered it important to texture their games. Miss those days.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨#StopPayingGames⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been doing this for about 15 years and it hasn’t made a difference. Let’s not kid ourselves that it’s going to change anything except keeping ourselves from getting burned

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bill to raise minimum wage to $25 an hour will be introduced in Senate⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  And a maximum wealth, in a way that prevents breaking it up yet still being accessible to a single person

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Scan to Verify You're Human⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t have a mobile device. Guess I’m not human anymore.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is your favourite gaming console you have played?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  For me it’s the N64. I know it’s a slightly dubious pick, but there’s something alluring about the beginning of 3D graphics. No one knew what they were doing yet and it produced some of the most lovable jank.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Flock of scissors⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Those aren’t scissors. They’re shears.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I love houses that trap heat! /s⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Europeans don’t get roasted nearly enough for slaughtering 50k of its citizens per year due to inadequate cooling. Compare that to 1200 in the USA.

  It’s like a meat grinder over there, and yet they endlessly harp on problems in other countries that kill far fewer people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thank goodness, no Hantavirus.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  the idea of needing a test to know whether you have chronic diarrhea is sending me

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  For consumables it always makes me think it’s risky because I’ll never be able to get it again.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"If you can't afford to tip 40%, then don't eat out"⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Servers themselves are opposed to change because of how embarrassingly overpaid they are

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We Put A Man On The Moon. We Did It.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  He’s poorly making an argument for how the UFC is unique but leaving out that it’s because people generally frown upon people giving each other brain damage for our entertainment.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Farms use more water than Al data centers" OK, I'll go without Al and you can go without food and we'll see who lasts longer⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Actually AI is probably more necessary to life than meat at this point. As it underpins a large portion of global logistics

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can't create Githib account⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They nuked my account a long time ago in the name of ‘security.’

  Fuck 'em. They did me a favor. No one should be using any microsoft product.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Good point⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  it’s interesting how adding ‘do’ to the end of that clears up the ambiguity

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There are low cost resources out there to get legit help.

  lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I watched someone do a playthrough of Dark Ages and in the first or second level, control was yanked away from him to play a cutscene of an opening door. While he was shooting at an enemy.

  That’s unforgivable. I have no idea why that doesn’t seem to be a big deal to so many people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[serious]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They succeed every day.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The microplastics problem isn’t as bad as we thought. It turns out stearates from latex gloves look exactly like microplastics and were contaminating all the studies. news.umich.edu/nitrile-and-latex-gloves-may-cause…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gog Promotional E-Mail Containing Nazi Symbols Goes Out to Subscribers⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No. They admitted they were aware that the symbols might render in this way on some systems and they went ahead with it anyway.
