God damn, that sounds awesome! Those map editors were seriously impressive for their time, so many cool things you could do with them. I also liked making “campaign” maps but with hero units and harder AI (SC base ai was too easy but you could set it to be harder through the map editor) or those “maze” maps where you have to keep the units you start out with alive through a bunch of different encounters.
Ahh good times!

If I had the infinity stones, I would make it so that anyone that does anything “productive” (work,school etc) before 12pm poofs away into dust.
Let the morning people feel the pain of having to be awake and productive in your least productive hours for a change. God damn morning people shakes fist

I made a tower defense map in the Starcraft map editor when I was a kid , but it was based off of anti air rather than anti ground like the other TD maps at the time. I got it working pretty damn well (at least IMO) but I didn’t have internet at the time and that was on my dads work laptop so it sadly got lost.
I don’t think I could recreate that now if I tried, crazy what you can do as a bored kid with too much time.

Don’t ever think conservatives just hate anything that doesn’t align with us.
Fucking LOL
Cons are entirely based off of “fuck you I got mine” and “anyone that isn’t a straight white person = bad”
Your entire shitty ideology is based on hating anyone different from what you pricks consider to be “normal”. AKA the polar opposite of what I quoted.
Fuck off back to twitter where you cunts belong.

The world would be an objectively better place if someone took this subhuman scum out. Half a fucking trillion dollars and it’s still not enough for him. These scumbags always need more and more.

I haven’t seen Halo Wars mentioned yet so I’ll nominate those games. Both 1 and 2 are insanely fun and they control surprisingly well on Xbox if you dont have access to a PC. I’ve put a couple hundred hours into both games on both Xbox and PC, but I do prefer M&KB controls even if it works very well with a controller.
Cutscenes are fucking awesome in both games as well!

Even as a Protoss main, Wings of Liberty (Terran campaign in SC2) is by far the best in the game. I’ve replayed it at least once a year since it first released. Mass marine/marauder/medic backed by tanks is so much fun to play with.

- Comment on Think twice before gifting someone an M dwarf this holiday season 2 months ago:
To add onto the comments that you’ve already received, red dwarfs of approximately 0.8 - 0.25 solar masses are thought to be fully convective. So they mix all of their hydrogen fuel down into the core throughout their lives. More massive stars have different layers, the sun has a radiative zone above its core that is so dense it can take hundreds of thousands of years for a photon to get from the core to being released as light. More massive stars are too dense to mix all the hydrogen down into their cores and so end their lives with a lot of unspent hydrogen that gets ejected during the end of the stars life instead of being used as fuel in the core.
Another fun fact is that it’s thought that stars more massive than our sun have an exterior radiative layer rather than a convectional outer layer and so they wouldn’t have the “granules” that we see on the surface of the sun. They would instead be one “solid” shining surface.
God I love space. So fascinating.

I don’t use twitter (never have tbh) so I’ve only ever seen screenshots of his more infamous tweets, but I have listened to a LOT of his startalk podcast. Most of the time he’s an entertaining person and seems to admit when he doesn’t know enough about a given subject (although I’ve seen a lot of criticism that he does tend to talk about things he doesn’t know, it doesn’t seem to be that way in the podcast at least)
He can be annoying in some of his podcasts though and you can feel his guests being diplomatic about it while still hearing a bit of annoyance in their voice or next sentence etc. But overall I rather quite like him, despite the Internet’s disdain for him.
More people making science popular and easily digestible is always a good thing IMO. But I’m also biased because I’ve really liked NDT since I was a kid due to seeing him in space documentaries when I was young, and I still love his version of Cosmos.

Couldn’t care less tbh, I’m judging murica as a whole and you pricks are gonna drag us all down with you. Say goodbye to Ukraine, cause trump is gonna stop all support for them at best, and straight up support russia at the worst. 3rd party voters that voted against genocide? Congrats, you now have much worse than a dem administration when it comes to that shithole israel.
Fuck america.

- Comment on Bandai Namco reportedly tries to bore staff into quitting, skirting Japan’s labor laws 5 months ago:
Eh even with being allowed to do things, it still sucks after a while. My job is seasonal with half the year being insanely busy and other half has practically nothing to do after work dries up. Luckily the bosses are chill about it, just show up and “pretend” to be busy and you can watch TV on your phone while “cleaning” the same tools or trays etc over and over. It’s nice for a few weeks after the demanding busy season ends, but even with being allowed to listen to music or watch stuff on your phone, take extra breaks, chat with people as much as you want, it still gets old having to be at work 40 hours a week with nothing truly productive to do.
That’s with good bosses that want to keep the workers happy, doing tedious mind numbing work for bosses that are trying to get you to quit sounds like hell. No thank you.
