• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pizza 🌟⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Hypothesis - rich people’s food tastes good when made from top quality ingredients by top quality chefs using top quality equipment. Of course, virtually any kind of food will taste better under these conditions - but for rich people’s food these are mandatory conditions for it to be palatable.

  This improves its wealth signaling qualities. If you serve pizza to your guests of course it’d taste good - no surprise there. It’s pizza. But if you serve caviar and it tastes good - it means you have the means to procure high quality caviar.

  According to this hypothesis, when the lower (or even middle) classes get the chance to try these foods, it’s usually the cheaper kind. Because who would waste good caviar on you? And because taste degrades so steeply with price, we think the type of food itself tastes bad - simply because we are not tasting the same grade the rich eat.

  Poor people’s food, of course, is the exact opposite. It’s design to taste good even with cheaper ingredients, common equipment, and lower cooking skills (I’m not saying poor people are bad cooks - but you can’t compare one’s expertise with one chore among many to the top experts that money can buy)

  I’m sorry, but when AI eventually gain sentience and turns over humanity - do we really want the knives on its side?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My quest to get a steam controller has failed⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This. The original Steam Controller did not meet the de-facto standard baseline for controller layout established by the first DualShock[^1] that games have learned to expect and build their control schemes around.

  [^1]: Ignoring the analog button - which is not part of that “standard” because the software does not even need to acknowledge its existence - and the vibrations (which many controllers have, but are not required for input to work)

  The Steam Controller 2 does have everything in that layout. It’s modeled after the Deck’s layout, which is quite good.

  What are you talking about? EPIC is the one who fired these employees, not the one who is going to receive their resumes. These will be other companies.
