  And nuss nougat means nut nougat, as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hideo Kojima ‘really sad’ about PlayStation killing discs, ‘frightened’ for future of ownership⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Sorry to kind of ignore your question, but I think it misses the point.

  Even with only the partial game data on the disc, the disc still held the rights to the game. Therefore, the rights were transferrable. That is to say, you could still sell your disc and it would have value to the next owner.

  When you are forced to buy the game directly from the PlayStation store, your game license is no longer transferable. You can’t sell your old games, and you can’t buy used games from someone else.

  Yeah. I kinda meant this as more of a joke. I stand by it though. I still think it’s funny.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How has Apple tricked so many people into believing that they "just need to get another Apple product"?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Think about the average person. Now, remember that half of all people are less intelligent than that.

  As of last year, approximately 57% of US Americans were iPhone users.

  I think I’ve said enough.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are products "for curly hair" supposed to straighten hair, make them more curly, or just formulated not to effect the curl at all?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Products for curly hair are designed to minimize the negative effects of curls (such as frizzyness) while attempting to accentuate the curl.

  I don’t think I’ve ever seen a product for straight hair other than maybe a straightening iron (and mists, etc. designed to be used before/after ironing), which does indeed iron your hair in an attempt to make it straighter.

  There are two exceptions to this: a permanent (“perm”) solution does actually make your hair more curly. Despite being called permanent, it only lasts a few weeks or months. The opposite of this is called a hair relaxer. It’ll make your hair more straight for a similar amount of time. Both of these are more harsh chemicals, and people generally go to a salon to get them done professionally. There are also home versions sold.

  In summary, read the entire package before you use it on your hair.

  Pretty sure he studies pea plants. But he first described the ideas of dominant and recessive genes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PC Games like Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait wait, I remember. It was a combination of the load screens and the combat. Combat felt unfair. I even looked up guides. And every time you died… Load screen. Very long load screen. I even tried turning down graphics to a minimum to improve load times. Didn’t help much.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PC Games like Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s been years. I remember playing it after BoTW and hoping it would be similar, but just being very disappointed about everything. It felt clunky. The visuals are noticably worse, but that didn’t really bother me. I don’t remember why, but I think the sticking point was the combat. Ultimately I didn’t care enough about it at the time to even give a proper review, I just gave it a thumbs down on steam.

  I came here to say Pine, but also to say Pine isn’t very good. I played 5 hours, and it just was not that good.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ireland is a Catholic majority country. Yet all the Americans I know who identify as Irish are Protestant. Why is that?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  How many Catholics do you know in general? This is more of a rhetorical question.

  I live in/near the southern Appalachians, and there are very few Catholics here of any ethnic background.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨She's not wrong⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They are the original. Persona is a spin off of SMT. And I guess SMT is a spin off of the original Megami Tensei?

  Each one has its own story, although there are some references between them. Some of the end game choices lead to or create the realities that other games exist in.

  They tend to have a bit of a different tone compared to persona. But, ultimately, you’re still collecting and fighting with demons/personas/whatever.
