I agree that if your partner really wants to build you up, that it can help getting honest feedback from your significant other; i have changed a lot of things to make living together work better. But the way anon describes it sounds insufferable and more like he likes being dominated; also, it can put you under constant stress if the demands are unreasonable or don’t respect your needs.

Have fun! I have read most of the list entries over the years, and a lot of stories and arcs (but far from everything!). The SCP entries themselves are great, but there are so many more stories - most of them well written - to find there.

I hope they put out the last FF VII remake part before that, so i can finally start playing them all! I don’t care what they want to waste their money on afterwards lol
- Comment on How far you've fallen 3 days ago:
UE is the worst offender. My hardware is able of astonishing features, just to get wrecked by fucking shader stutter and default engine settings not even touched by game devs (I even stopped playing the Dead Space remake over the stutter, it’s unplayable regardless of settings). Some modders take it upon them to try and fix the second part, so i know it’s not the hardware, esp. when stuff like cyberpunk works fine on the appropriate detail level for 1440p or near maxed @1080p.
- Comment on Anon has had enough 4 days ago:
I agree that this can happen, but at least its pretty rare. Standing while peeing however makes a mess in a radius around the toilet every time. I mean, when you live alone and have no guests ever then this might not be an issue, but in every other case it’s pretty nasty.

- Comment on Nearly 90% of Windows Games now run on Linux, latest data shows — as Windows 10 dies, gaming on Linux is more viable than ever 6 days ago:
That’s because of the awful spaghetti code that is the basis of Space Engineers. I gave up on that game years ago, because those devs were vibe coding before it was cool, and it shows.

The meme is that OP is a single issue poster with a unhealthy fixation on digital currency - as if currency today isn’t for the most part just bits in a database anyways.

- Comment on Utter nonsense 2 weeks ago:
I agree - it’s so busy that trying to learn from that just will lead to more confusion. The only thing this is good for is for showing the variety of organic chemistry, and it doesn’t even do a good job at it.
- Comment on Utter nonsense 2 weeks ago:
This does not ring a bell at all - It makes sense to look at it this way around, might have helped back then. But when i remember how old my professor was back then, and looking at how “new” the concept is, i’m pretty sure that he didn’t think too fondly of such newfangled stuff.
It didn’t help that the module had originally 5 hours per week, which was cut down to 3 hours without reducing the material to learn, resulting in a very old-timey approach to the whole module, since there wasn’t much time at all. I learnt most of it audiotaping the lessons while copying what was written on the blackboard, and actually learned it at home.
- Comment on Utter nonsense 2 weeks ago:
You’re right, that’s absolutely necessary to learn, to take the language metapher further it’s like learning to declination of verbs. I meant it really clicked for me when i started to get a feeling for charge distribution and how electronegativity of specific ligands changes it, especially to predict what will happen in cases where more than one reaction is possible.
- Comment on Utter nonsense 2 weeks ago:
at least thermodynamics follow pretty static rules, that module was only an issue for me because it was a seminar where we had to work in groups, which i suck at.
I realized that organic chenistry you have to study until you get a feeling for how charge is distributed along a molecule to identify where and how it can react with other molecules, and what intermediarys (real or imagined) are formed, which boils down to learning as many reactions as possible. it’s a bit like learning a language with fucked up grammar.
- Comment on Utter nonsense 2 weeks ago:
omg i’m getting flashbacks from my org chem course. The exam regulary failed about 2/3 of students, i needed 3 attempts to pass, and i studied like stupid for it (the second attempt was sooo close to a passing grade, i was really annoyed at that).
- Comment on Why did Thanos, with the power of all the infinity stones, never think to try doubling the amount of resources in the world? 2 weeks ago:
1) Because he’s an insane villain with a fixation
2) Hulk states in Endgame that it’s mainly gamma radiation, stating it’s like he was meant to use them. So Thanos seems to have similar resilience to gamma radiation as the Hulk.
3) Seems to be an affinity type of thing - in “Guardians of the Galaxy” the stone annihilates normal people trying to use it, but since Quill is a celestial hybrid, they can use the stone without dying.
4)They were destroyed by Thanos at the beginning of “Endgame” - it’s the reason they have to go back in time to get them, and place them back in the past afterwards, so that the timeline doesn’t get fucked up.
5)Because space aliens can be whatever color they want to be :-) - Comment on What’s “The average American reads at an 8th grade level” mean in practice? A worryingly concise explanation. 3 weeks ago:
This demonstrates the issues the US has pretty well. Stuff like MAGA can only work on a large scale when people react only emotionally, not intellectually to information they are exposed to.

you are right of course, my hollywood damaged brain made the shortcut from explosion to combustion so naturally that i didn’t even realize i added an step lol
- Comment on Bye Bye Existence 3 weeks ago:
It wouldn’t explode, you need an oxidizer for that. But yeah, we would all dissolve into a pile of goo, since the lipid bilayer of the cells would lose their hydrophile component, probably leading to something similar to soapification, and even if that doesn’t kill us, our DNA would degrade in an instant, since oxygen is the binding element between the phosphor atoms which hold the nucleotides together.
