- Comment on The State of Switch Emulation right now is objectively hilarious 3 days ago:The post is more about how there’s an absurd number of clueless people in forums trying to figure out how to set things up and it’s just a chaotic clusterfuck of mostly non-technical people talking past each other. 
- Comment on  5 days ago:Likewise with Rage Against The Machine 
- Comment on California startup to demonstrate space weapon on its own dime 1 week ago:As if Starlink wasn’t already 
- Comment on ‘I’m suddenly so angry!’ My strange, unnerving week with an AI ‘friend’ 1 week ago:I’ve met several grown people who get mad when that’s not what you give them as “friendship” 
- Comment on Manic Stew 1 week ago:Hyperfocus cookies 
- Comment on Ferns 2 weeks ago:Still too much pain relief. You see, if you simply torture women enough, all their children either come out perfectly or die for … reasons… 
- Comment on Game developers desperate for you to join their Discord "server" 3 weeks ago:That makes sense. I’m certainly of the camp that it’s bad for developers to use to coordinate with their communities via discord in part because it’s terrible for documentation/disorganized. Guess I’ve just never given super big discord channels the time of day since they seem about as productive as a major twitch streamer’s chat. Like you said, a bit like screaming into an avalanche, everything is lost to the noise. 
- Comment on Game developers desperate for you to join their Discord "server" 3 weeks ago:What issues did you have with it? Too busy? Overeager mods? Bad organization? 
- Comment on Country Singer Zach Bryan Backtracks After Backlash, Now Says Message in Anti-ICE Song Being ‘Misconstrued’ 3 weeks ago:That’s not what the word algorithm means 
- Comment on GOG: We’re thrilled to announce that the Crysis Remastered Trilogy has joined our catalog, and the original Crysis is now part of the GOG Preservation Program! 3 weeks ago:The DLP shutter glasses are wireless, for what it’s worth. The projector inserts solid red frames to for the glasses to sync to. 
- Comment on GOG: We’re thrilled to announce that the Crysis Remastered Trilogy has joined our catalog, and the original Crysis is now part of the GOG Preservation Program! 3 weeks ago:Yeah. Generally for 3D you’ll want a DLP projector, plus active shutter glasses. They still make the glasses, you can pick them up on Amazon. They go for about $20 per pair. 
- Comment on GOG: We’re thrilled to announce that the Crysis Remastered Trilogy has joined our catalog, and the original Crysis is now part of the GOG Preservation Program! 3 weeks ago:You’re correct. Projectors still mostly support 3D, so if you’re into 3D that’s the best way to watch stuff or game in 3D nowadays, outside of VR headsets, of course. 
- Comment on PUT THE TRAINS IN THE BAG 5 weeks ago:Why sort in the train when you can sort ahead of time and maximize storage space? The ZIP code system allows for a national radix sort. 
- Comment on Remember episodic gaming? Former Telltale devs are bringing it back for the release of Dispatch, and there's a chance it might work this time | Eurogamer 1 month ago:Back To The Future was the first one I played as it came out. Love the Walking Dead series. Need more adaptations of the comics rather than the show. 
- Comment on Star Citizen fans sigh deeply, rub their foreheads as developer casts doubt on Squadron 42's 2026 release: 'I don't know if we're going to make it' 1 month ago:Sure, that’s true. I was a year 1 backer, just after the initial Kickstarter ended, so I guess to me that part of the context kind of spoke for itself. Thanks for highlighting it, I honestly do appreciate it. 
- Comment on Star Citizen fans sigh deeply, rub their foreheads as developer casts doubt on Squadron 42's 2026 release: 'I don't know if we're going to make it' 1 month ago:The bigger context of that quote is basically that they’re heads down and preparing for crunch. The person who said, “I don’t know if we’re going to make it” also said “but we’re doing everything we can to make it happen” (this is my paraphrase, I don’t know if I got the exact wording) 
- Comment on Beyond the Maze: The Unexpected Store Management Game in Pacman 30th Anniversary 1 month ago:This reads like ChatGPT wrote it 
- Comment on Google sucks 1 month ago:If you’re planning to run Jellyfin or Plex, I’d recommend a low-profile Intel ARC GPU. Those things transcode video like nobody’s business and they’re not all that much more expensive than the GTX 750 people have mentioned in this thread 
- Comment on Foolproof advice 1 month ago:Pretty sure it’s a joke. 
- Comment on PS5 Digital Edition consoles are reportedly getting a quiet storage downgrade | VGC 1 month ago:Well word is that the PS6 is aimed to be a Switch 2 competitor, which honestly makes sense. Graphics continuing to improve is slow enough going these days and the Switch 2 is selling gangbusters. With any luck, by acknowledging Nintendo they’re taking on the 2nd place mentality again. 
- Comment on PC modders optimise Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater before Konami does, and add Hideo Kojima to boot | Eurogamer 1 month ago:Only if it’s a PC-exclusive 
- Comment on The Framework Desktop and Linux have shown me the path to PC gaming in the living room 2 months ago:They work fine for me 
- Comment on Utter bullshit like this 2 months ago:Slop as a slang term is far older than its present use to primarily describe the output of AI, see Merriam Webster’s definition 4-C for the second noun meaning of the word: a product of little or no value : rubbish watching the usual slop on TV 
- Comment on Superfan Ben Stiller Has A Star Trek Pitch, Says It’s Important For Franchise To Return To Big Screen 2 months ago:IDK, Ben Stiller made Severance, which is pretty thoughtful, philosophical sci-fi. He’s got the chops and the interest in making something, the idea leaves me cautiously optimistic. 
- Comment on Pandering to conservative Americans 2 months ago:Hamburgling? 
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:I agree that those are huge issues. I guess in my opinion, philosophy courses like what I described tend to improve literacy and math skills by requiring you read and write deliberately, think about the nuances of words, and build logical, self-consistent arguments/statements. 
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:Actual inter-religious comparative theology is probably even better for developing skeptical critical thinkers than not teaching people about religion at all. I would love to see schools adopt that sort of coursework. 
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:Anyone who feels the need to brag is lacking, IME 
- Comment on Games Where Nothing Happens (SPOILERS for various game plots) 2 months ago:Yeah, Final Fantasy 1 and 8, I think 
- Comment on Can magnet damage hard disk? 2 months ago:All good, I just wanted you to know how it’s spelled. Not angry or upset
