  Sadly, it was clear that The Skipper wasn’t cool because he didn’t eat the rich. Source: I was forced to watch this show on re-runs as a kid.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon watches Lost⁩ ⁨⁨18⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  Hah, good point.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon watches Lost⁩ ⁨⁨20⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  I just assumed The Skipper on Giligan’s Island ate a lot of coconuts.

  I mean, I’ll be fine too. I just quite liked many of their games and I thought DQ XI was great. There will be no more of that apparently.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google's Gemini will make its way into Dragon Quest X to power a "Chatty Slimey" AI companion, Square Enix has announced⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  That doesn’t align with any that I know, but anecdotes are just that I suppose.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google's Gemini will make its way into Dragon Quest X to power a "Chatty Slimey" AI companion, Square Enix has announced⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  So they don’t want to me not buy any more DQ games. That’s a bold strategy, let’s see how it plays out.

  The American measurement system is so gloriously random it puts Calvinball to shame.

  I’m more surprised that he didn’t make it nanomachines again. That’s not the answer to everything, Hideo!

  That would at least be fun, if not a bit uncomfortable long term.

  I can’t think of Captain Planet without thinking of that amazing video (www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwJaELXadKo)

  Was that a St Paddy’s rave going on?

  If you’re actually puzzled, then you’re a moron. The vast majority of people clearly strongly dislike these things and you’re everywhere in this thread defending them. Are you being paid for your services or do you just love the surveillance state that much?

  The true final boss of the internet. Honestly, I hope it’s gone for good, but you cannot kill true evil.

  I hate that I know all of these. At no one has mentioned swap.avi yet. Oh shit, I just did!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I am only now discovering the sheer addictiveness of Sid Meier's Civilization.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d agree, and I prefer 4 to 5 greatly for that very reason.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I am only now discovering the sheer addictiveness of Sid Meier's Civilization.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I think I would have really enjoyed Civ Revolution had I not already played a ton of Civ 4 on which it was based. I just couldn’t get over what was missing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I am only now discovering the sheer addictiveness of Sid Meier's Civilization.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I played more Civ 1 than any of the later games. Civ 2 is also great as is 4 (3 is decent, but I wasn’t nearly as enthralled with it). Every game in the series since has had aspects to it that I disliked enough to keep me from continuing to play and I heard enough bad comments about 7 to not both buying it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨spoopy figs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They should have worked the wasp angle into their old “A cookie is just a cookie…” commercials. Kids already hated those things, this would have really made the brand stick heh

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨spoopy figs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Damn, I hadn’t understood it as all figs needing wasps, but figured it was more the reverse of what you’re now saying where maybe some specific varieties had adapted to need them. I already was not a fan of figs, but this is definitely too spoopy for my tastes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨spoopy figs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This post is informative, horrifying, and indeed very, very spoopy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨spoopy figs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s like being allergic to Florida. The more I think about it, that’s a healthy body response!

  I can’t say I agree with you here at all, but I’m a snob.

  Denon AH-D210

  I had a pair of Denon AH-D2000 that were flat out amazing. They ended up getting fried in a power surge from a bad storm which also took out my receiver.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Plastic hinges on modern headphones⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sony used to make some really awesome high end headphones (like the Qualia 010 MDR-1 or MDR-R10), while were definitely overpriced (IMO), they were definitely not garbage. They do still make at least one actual high end non-garbage headphone (MDR-Z1R) it is for sure overpriced. I don’t think it’s not garbage.

  Also, few sane people are buying them, so I doubt they’ll last.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Plastic hinges on modern headphones⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The Audio-Technica ATH-M line are quote sturdy, I’ve never really seen them break. The same goes for the Beyerdynamic DT-770-880/990 lines. And both companies sell replacement parts at decent prices in my experience for those rare times when sometime could break.

  Don’t be silly, they’ll be happy to make a vibe coded remaster for it and charge $80 a piece.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A product of his environment⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve had 2 and they were both far, far more than just overbearing (yes, I realize that I used that word in my previous comment). My first HOA had a pair of elderly sisters that were both on the board that would walk around the subdivision a few times a week with clipboards just looking for anything that they would come at you with. One time they had the board lawyer send me a threat of putting a lien on my property because I had left a pain can on my driveway for a few hours… while I was literally painting a room.

  The only people that HOAs serve are authoritarians and people who only think of their home as an investment whose value is more important than anything else. I just won’t play that game anymore.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A product of his environment⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I have had some shitty HOAs and I now live in a home with no HOA for a reason. Fuck those overbearing shitheads.
