- Comment on Xbox CEO Asha Sharma shares her gamertag — what it reveals 10 hours ago:
On the one hand I see the reason for criticism, when a person that apparently never touched a video game becomes a XBOX CEO, on the other hand does her account really read like a real one, and I think this is great. I think there is nothing easier for an Xbox CEO than to have a fake account created going back 20 years and showing thousands of hours of gaming or have somebody game for you Elon Musk style.
This reads like someone that is actually preparing for the new role she has to fill and making her own gaming experiences and listening to community feedback.
Is it as good as having someone as CEO with a long history in gaming? Probably not. But I think this might be the next best thing.
- Comment on How do you cut a cucumber so that the round slices don't roll all over and off of your cutting board? 5 days ago:
From personal experience I can tell that once I went for the basic knive sharpener, the mean sharpness of my knives increased significantly. Yes, the whetstone makes them sharper, but it takes so much tile that I usually used my knives far too long before I sharpened them again. Once I got some basic knives sharpener (thebthings you pull your knive through), I suddenly started to sharpen the knives the moment I noticed they became a little dull.

Thank you for sharing your layout. It was a good starting point. I changed some things arond a bit and arrived at the following layout. I find it good for writing in german, but in english there are still some challenges like ou or oo that are kind of slow…
- Comment on Thumb-Key Speed 1 week ago:
Yeah I also struggle with the layouts. I feel like they are not optimal for German, even the German layout. Most of the letters that often come in pairs like mm or ll are locked behind swipe gestures, which makes it really hard to type them fast. I get, why the most common letters are in the top layer, but I think swiping twice the same letter takes so much more time than swiping a common letter once… Maybe I have to adjust it a little. As far as I understand it is possible to edit the layouts in the app.

- Comment on Gothic 1 Remake | Release Date Trailer (June 5th) 1 week ago:
Back when the original released it was a great RPG with a great story and a world that felt alive, compared to most other RPG that were on the market. The world was open to explore from the begining without any safeguards to run into strong monsters, which helped the emersion a lot. The controls were strange, but worked somehow, when you got used to it. Combat was challenging and the leveling was rewarding, because you got notably stronger. I hope the remake is good and translates these strength into the modern age.

So you are not looking forward to the new CopilotBox by Microsoft?

It is going to get harder and harder for unskilled workers to find jobs that are not easily replaced by robots and ai. Only hope I have is for ai becoming so expensive to finance the giant investments going on right now, that workers have chance to compete.
- Comment on Western Digital details 14-platter 3.5-inch HAMR HDD designs with 140 TB and beyond 2 weeks ago:
I find it still mind blowing that HDD still improves the storage density to this day. Especially that something like HAMR works reliably and fast feels kind of crazy.
- Comment on Meta progression in roguelites was fun for a while, but it's starting to feel unrewarding 2 weeks ago:
Same for me. The start of the game was great. The difficulty just right. But most of the new characters are too strong. I stopped playing after I unlocked the duo upgrade, because there was simply no challenge left. I enjoyed it long enough to still recommend it for the price, but i feel like there is so much of the game left and I am somehow sorry I will never play it…
- Comment on 'Go Back and Play Morrowind and Tell Me That's the Game You Want to Play Again' — Former Bethesda Veteran Delivers His Verdict on Potential The Elder Scrolls Remasters - IGN 3 weeks ago:
Same for me. In the moment I left the starting dungeon I lost all interest in exploring the world. Tried it 3 times over the years and never progressed further. I am wondering if the remake might be different and worth another try… I heard so much good about oblivion that I really see me enjoying it.

None of them. That’s why he is now trying to build robots…
