It may not be the best answer, but it’s probably the nerdiest.
- Comment on Name one 2 weeks ago:
I definitely think it was a deliberate choice, but more in the vein of “look at this bumbling moron driving this piece of shit French car” as a way of further masking his actual abilities.
- Comment on Name one 2 weeks ago:
But the show started in the 60s, and it’s the same car. You could argue his trenchcoat and hat (de rigeur when the show started) were more affectation in later years, or accept that at some point those simply occupy the role of signifiers that “yes this is Columbo.”
- Comment on Name one 2 weeks ago:
He’s a sergeant.
- Comment on Name one 2 weeks ago:
Columbo. Neurotypical is debatable, a lot of his behavior is an act to make the suspect less guarded. But he drives a shitty car, is happily married, and isn’t “too old for this shit.”

“No, the name ‘Milka’ doesn’t refer to milk, why do you ask?”
- Comment on If a person were paranoid about a potential food shortage in the next two to three years, what should they stock up on now? 3 weeks ago:
OH!
Books on local flora that cover what is edible. Lots of shit that grows in the wild or green spaces is edible (often after some preparation like blanching or roasting.)
- Comment on If a person were paranoid about a potential food shortage in the next two to three years, what should they stock up on now? 3 weeks ago:
I can. A couple of years is plenty of time to plant a garden, learn how to cook a variety of vegetarian meals using things you can grow, and if you have the space to invest in chickens or other birds for eggs. It’s also enough time to learn other skills and meet your neighbors, build up a network of trust and mutual aid, and be actually prepared for a crisis in a way that is sustainable.
- Comment on Pixel Airport Tycoon, a top down airport management and construction game, with extensive airport operations gameplay, released on Steam 3 weeks ago:
If you do well enough at the game, the reanimated corpse of Howard Hughes appears and asks you to take over operations at JFK.

If you read it in Kermit the Frog’s voice, it’s like you’re in the room with him. Minus the smell of meat-and-benzo sweat.
- Comment on First the frogs turned gay and now this 5 weeks ago:
The Daily Mail article is dated today, so it looks like a new one.
- Comment on First the frogs turned gay and now this 5 weeks ago:
The Daily Mail article says he’d killed elephants before, so ¯_(ツ)_/¯
- Comment on First the frogs turned gay and now this 5 weeks ago:
“We wiped out the apex predators so now we have to be the apex predators” is an…interesting take on justifying trophy hunting.
You could just fund conservation for animals like lions and hyenas in the savanna, and other predators in other environments. It’s better overall, see the effects of reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone.

Guerilla plant fast growing plants in vacant areas to suck up as much CO2 as possible?
(Yes I know this is like a drop in the ocean.)

- Comment on Day 619 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 2 months ago:
One of my favorite games, and Ghost of Yotei is a fantastic sequel.
I’m looking forward to the next one which based on the time jump between Tsushima and Yotei should be about a brave warrior fighting against American occupation of Okinawa in the post WWII era. /s
- Comment on Owlcat is using generative AI for The Expanse Osiris Reborn, but the final game will be "100% human made" 2 months ago:
This isn’t about source code, it’s about using genAI for game assets like textures and character models. Steam’s disclosure policy explicitly states it’s about things a player can see or hear.

I think the “patient gamer” model could be the way through don’t buy new shit and encourage your friends to play older games too. Hardware can be not great and the games are cheap.

Or at least lichens.

More effective than and ADT sign or one of those “we don’t call 911” signs.
- Comment on The City of Encinitas, California is removing a protected bike lane to replace it with a painted bike lane. Cost? More than $3 million. 2 months ago:
Not knowing your city I can’t speak to that, but I’ve been both a cyclist and a pedestrian in those circumstances and it fucking sucks. People tend to spread out when they walk, and cyclists are typically moving fast enough that walkers are effectively stationary in comparison. So walking becomes a frustrating exercise in dodging bikes, and cycling becomes a frustrating exercise in avoiding clumps of people (along with whatever other crap is placed on the sidewalk without considering cyclists.)
