Can you prove they don’t already?

Atari released a similar game on the same day as Silksong (Adventure of Samsara) and it had only 12 concurrent players on Steam.
Oops 😬

Yes
- Comment on THIS JUST IN: FBI suspects Kirk was likely targeted, more info to come 3 days ago:
I mean, that’s a pretty accurate one sentence summary. Only thing that’s missing is that a random bystander “recognized” him even though he was wearing a mask and all of the photos we had of the suspect up to that point were 90% eyebrow.

Oh don’t worry, they’ll institute police checkpoints everywhere across the country for “safety” and “national security”. Worked great for Ireland!

Luigi was missing for a few days, after executing a masterful getaway in the middle of the day in the largest city in the country. Then just randomly shows up at a McDonalds with everything needed to convict him packaged together in a bag. Definitely not unusual at all. Nothing to see here folks! The system works and the police are master investigators. It’s impossible to get away with a crime like this!

Yeah, ER is almost never the right place. But if you do go to an ER, make sure it’s attached to a hospital. The free standing ones are notorious for predatory billing and will take your first born after saving them.
Urgent care and minute-clinic type things can be good. Primary care physicians are typically best, though they may be difficult to get an appointment for.
- Comment on Sony is releasing a new PS5 console, but it's a downgrade 1 week ago:
No, it’s not. Consoles (and technology in general) historically trend cheaper over time. Demand lowers, manufacturing cost lowers, newer tech releases, costs adjust to accommodate.
It’s very abnormal that the current gen of consoles has not only not gotten cheaper yet, but have actually raised in price. Like, very very abnormal.
Shrinkflation is a real thing, but historically it has nothing to do with consoles.

Smart phones were a mistake
- Comment on My brother got arrested for a dime bag. His picture got put up on the jails website. And they advertise. So shouldn't my brother get paid at least a little for providing clicks? 2 weeks ago:
Arrest records are public. Even if you’re innocent or the charges are dropped or whatever, they still smear your reputation by putting your mugshot up. It can be a good thing too, since it cuts down on the number of people arrested quietly with no disclosed reason.

Can a stand-alone quest play Alyx?
- Comment on What If A.I. Doesn’t Get Much Better Than This? 4 weeks ago:
And now, lots of web searches return results of AI SEO slop chock full of incorrect information, which then fules subsequent training sets and LLM web searches and creates a negative feedback loop that could destroy the internet.

Yeah, way better than some boring old board!

Case closed! Wrap it up everyone. Pay no attention to the single missing page in the Walmart catalogue submitted as evidence.
