- Comment on When you wake up, how long does it take for your brain's "OS" to "resume from hibernation"? 5 hours ago:
Until afternoon or evening.
Coffee and not even a monster java in the morning is enough. I really do take that long to warm up. This is why I work night shifts.
- Comment on Roblox to block children from talking to adult strangers after string of lawsuits 5 hours ago:
I don't get the appeal, really. It's just a lego-looking ripoff where the arms are fucking huge and everything. The things that get chosen to be popular, says a lot about people's collective tastes sometimes.
- Comment on GameStop workers say its trade anything day will be a huge mess 5 hours ago:
It was a dumb idea from the beginning, trying to be an electronics pawn shop. Only the trade-ins are just as worthless as the game ones were.
- Comment on ‘Clair Obscur’ Leads The Game Awards 2025 Nominees With 12 Nods; ‘Silent Hill f’ Has Four Nominations 6 hours ago:
For a large part, yes. It's just fuel to the fires of pointless arguments.
I'm sure development studios and individuals have a sense of pride and accomplishment in receiving any award for their work. But, even then, there's going to be volumes of people who're going to always feel like their favorites were snuffed for reasons not known to us and it just makes more arguments than actual discussions.

You mean, argue about them? Because I don't see a lot of good conversations regarding some video games unless it is a hivemind or a circlejerk. It must be on some universally agreed upon ruling before engaging some video game discussions, if not, then bickering or pelting virtual stones at the different thinker with opinions that goes against said hivemind.
- Comment on Roblox to block children from talking to adult strangers after string of lawsuits 9 hours ago:
I wouldn't be complaining about this, except I am because Roblox is operated by pedos.
Something extreme measures such as face recognition has to be taken to ensure problems like this won't happen again. However, though, pedophiles having access to data storage containing such verifications can go so wrong on so many levels.
So heres what they should do:
Fire and prosecute all of the pedos.
Replace the pedos with trustworthy people to operate Roblox.
Then go through verifying. - Comment on Why do some people make such a big deal over ages of someone's account on here? 12 hours ago:
You misspelled 'we' and therefore you're A.I. You must be banned too. /s

Which are easy to spot and I get that.
But not everyone is like that and it is quite dumb to assume everyone is like that like I have seen others do. Someone some other person doesn't like, then they just say "oh that's a bot, um, ban them because their account is new."
You saw this shit all the time on Reddit. I mean the behavior can be noticeable from a user who just joined and wants to contribute and talk to those just coming back to repeat everything that got them removed in the first place.

Why are we still caring about these stupid game award shows when it's clear that they're just padded with commercialism and favoritism?
I hate these awards and I hate the ones Valve hosts on their Steam platform. They are all just utterly meaningless. Just nothing but ways to get 'gamurrrs' to stir up pointless arguments about subjective things for clout.
- Comment on [META] What actually constitutes "mildly infuriating" content? 13 hours ago:
There's even politically-related and news-related posts there too!
Some people just simply don't care and refuse to actually read that they just contaminate instances with unrelated posts.
- Comment on [META] What actually constitutes "mildly infuriating" content? 13 hours ago:
I remember having made 3 reports of some news-related articles that got posted here on another account because they didn't belong.
And guess what? Those reports were shot down and the posts remained. So some mod here seems to believe that it's okay to try and turn this instance into yet another news-related outlet, not like we have several dozen of them already.
- Comment on Legendary game designer, programmer, Space Invaders champion, and LGBTQ trailblazer Rebecca Heineman has died 16 hours ago:
Had a sad feeling that when she was trying to get a gofundme going, that she was on her last legs.
RIP.
- Comment on Is capitalism or consumerism at fault? 1 day ago:
I see it as 25/75.
25% you can say that the reason capitalism is getting away with more than it should, is because consumers are buying at the ridiculous prices.
75% though, is capitalism deceiving and scheming the ways possible to get people to bite.
- Comment on GTA IV Is A Snapshot of the World Before It Changed 1 day ago:
History is a concrete definition of this. Constantly showcasing events that pre-dated them happening to the aftermath of them happening.
- Comment on GTA IV Is A Snapshot of the World Before It Changed 1 day ago:
Science Fiction authors from the 40s, 50s and 60s toyed with many scenarios and theories about where technology would wind up. Half of them were right, half of them were wrong. I think it'd be a dumb thing to say what you quoted.
- Comment on Is it bad if I'm 31 and I feel genuinely sad and empty that a mythical creature isn't real? 1 day ago:
Well see that's where you're wrong right there and know it.
There is virtually no difference. We don't know if there is for certain, without a doubt, that there is a God if which we will ever see after we die or anything the scriptures and bible itself tells true. Millions to billions of people have died over this, most of which was slaughter and we aren't anywhere closer to the truth, if there is any.
How many people can you account have killed or done things in the name of mythical creatures? Not many and there isn't a reason to and people to an extent, may acknowledge that there might not be a mythical creature but why not believe in it. While those who're religious, continue living in denial, making radio and TV stations about it, letting their beliefs even dictate the course of law and justice to country while just not admitting that it could be the same grounds.
Done with you.
- Comment on Want to play the latest multiplayer games? Just go into your bios settings or upgrade your PC if it doesn't have TPM chip. 1 day ago:
No, it just means that the sad reality that in order for the right things to happen for the betterment of society, it takes a long time for idiots to figure it out. Which means we'll be long dead before they ever do and they'll still be playing Black Ops 133rd: Operation Dickcheese that's going to require 12 Petabytes of storage.
Continue working against conformity!
- Comment on Sony cracks down on Concord custom servers, issues DMCA takedowns on gameplay videos 1 day ago:
So they're going to invest millions in a project that fundamentally failed, ax the official servers prematurely and pretend it doesn't exist.
But then go after people who still bother with it.
They ought to be fucking thankful people still play it at all.
- Comment on Is it bad if I'm 31 and I feel genuinely sad and empty that a mythical creature isn't real? 1 day ago:
No. In fact, I encourage you to believe into mythical creatures more. Hell, I do, I believe in the phoenix.
If there's going to be millions on the planet who believe in invisible deities and not prove them to exist, fuck it, I'm going to believe in mythical creatures.
