Do you? 😘
- Comment on Amid Palworld Lawsuit, Nintendo Patents a System for Summoning a Character 1 week ago:
Yeah. I can see it wasn’t clear and then I started trolling people who yelled at me which didn’t help my case.
I should have been more clear, that I was trying to call out the hypocrisy of Nintendo’s lawsuit with Palworld (Pokémon with guns) when their own game could be considered just as immoral by some.
I’m annoyed at companies that would rather sue than compete. Palworld is a different game with different ideas.
It’s on me for not being clear!

Bro thinks I don’t play Pokémon.
Y’all are so angry.
Weedle is my favorite of the Kanto region. I also like Dwebble and Blitzle from Unova region.

People hate the truth.
- Comment on Amid Palworld Lawsuit, Nintendo Patents a System for Summoning a Character 1 week ago:
Yeah I wasn’t being serious but based on the downvotes I don’t think Lemmy got that.
My intent was actually to fuck over Nintendo with a patent about making your pets fight each other the way they keep gobbling up patents for shit that already exists.
- Comment on Amid Palworld Lawsuit, Nintendo Patents a System for Summoning a Character 1 week ago:
I’m actually a big supporter of giving homeless people help to care for their pets. A pets love is unconditional and everyone deserves that feeling.

You’re not wrong.
But something just feels more wrong about Dog Fighting Simulator 2025 to me.
- Comment on Amid Palworld Lawsuit, Nintendo Patents a System for Summoning a Character 1 week ago:
Does anyone have a patent on making animals fight each other?
How is Pokémon still a thing anyway? Imaginary dogfighting is still fucked up.

Yeah I was just reading a book that mentioned something Feynman said and it’s something I feel is true for me as well.
Don’t remember word for word but it was something like “Any subject is interesting if you look deep enough.”
I feel like Feynman and I could have a riveting conversation about knitting for 3 hours even though neither of us are passionate about it.
Those are the people I want to talk to.
- Comment on VW introduces monthly subscription to increase car power 4 weeks ago:
Oh I wasn’t aware. Each time I try to open a game before my Xbox connects to the internet, I get an error.
- Comment on VW introduces monthly subscription to increase car power 4 weeks ago:
Fuck that noise.
What happens if the car goes out of range from the internet? Does the car just lose power the same way I can’t play Gamepass games offline?
I already bought the car with the hardware in it. I will do what I want with it.
My next car will be a 1995 Honda. I’m so tired of being tracked all the time.

I don’t believe this story for one second.
Also that picture is designed to get a reaction. All that blood is from his nose. Not like they cut him up.
He was as probably talking shit and a child punched him.

For those who don’t know, this is how some labs use rats and mice when the are uncooperative. I don’t think the intent is to hurt the mouse, just to contain it briefly.
Not saying it’s okay or not okay. Just saying why it’s like this.
- Comment on Periodic reminder to get your library cards and fill out museum surveys. 1 month ago:
To add to this:
Mid-Continent Library in the Kansas City Metro has the biggest selection that I’ve seen in this area. Idk about Wichita or St Louis.
You can sign up for the KC Library, Johnson County Library, and Mid-Continent Library card online if you live in an area it covers.
You can get a Johnson County Library card if you don’t live in that area, but you have to go in person to sign up.
There are also quite a few libraries around the US that will let you sign up regardless of where you live if you make a donation.

I collect library cards like other people collect Pokémon cards. The more I get, the more audiobooks are available to me through apps like Libby.

- Comment on Valve gets pressured by payment processors with a new rule for game devs and various adult games removed 2 months ago:
Yeah I don’t get it here. I kinda get them not wanting to deal with porn when you can’t verify consent and age of the performers, but the games don’t make sense because there aren’t live performers to worry about.
Mostly that stuff annoys me on Steam because it’s always at the top when I’m sorting by trending/popular, but I don’t think it needs to be removed either.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
The real answer is that it depends on your age. Probably also race and gender. People will react differently to each.
An older adult ready for retirement? Delightful!
A kid trying to be different and impress girls! Cringey.

Oh also, the zoning and type of property matters too. A strip mall has different requirements than an office or hotel. Obviously
- Comment on Force is the last refuge of the incompetent 2 months ago:
I’ll try to look some up today but I think it varies by lease and by loan. You can’t apply the same rules to a warehouse as an office as a grocery store. Also, big spaces are different than small restaurants. Might not be consequences for a Chipotle but there could be for a grocery store in the same strip mall. The leases negotiated between the landlord and the tenant also have to be approved by the lender.
The whole thing is called “going dark”, meaning they are still paying rent but not operating on the premises. It causes the borrower/landlord to go into something called “cash management”. They lose the ability to collect rents directly. It all gets sent to a special lockbox that the lender has access to. They use those funds to post the payment and other things like that. They send a portion back to the borrow for operating expenses then hold onto the rest. The borrower also has to pay cash management and bank account fees when this happens.
I remember there was a big fight at a shopping center near me because a grocery store wanted to move the grocery location and open a giant liquor store in its place but the landlord didn’t like that. I believe they ended up terminating the lease and a different grocery store moved in. My company didn’t handle that loan so I don’t know the details but I knew that the loan was likely the real reason for the fight.
- Comment on Force is the last refuge of the incompetent 2 months ago:
Their mortgages have clauses that cost them when tenants are not operating onsite. It devalues restaurants and stores in the area. I’m not saying it’s right. It’s just how it works. Tenants have to do business on site during the lease if they pay fees and their landlords have to pay the banks.

I wish I could. Can’t afford to live anywhere else. I’m just doing what I can to make my community better. It makes me feel a little less hopeless.
- Comment on Anon has standards 2 months ago:
That’s because it’s an adjective. It’s like saying “I was talking to a black.” It’s icky and devalues people.
Ever notice how the same people the say “female” don’t also say “male”?
(Yes, I know female can be a noun, but in those cases, it’s typically in relation to live stock or in science.)

He also just took away funding for child abuse protection.
He cares more about professional sports than child sexual abuse.
Which is ironic because much of the MAGA platform is stopping pedophiles.

Missouri does this all the time. The laws here are so bad.
