- Comment on Heroes of Hammerwatch II Launch Trailer 5 days ago:
I played the demo and I would recommend!
I have about 100 hours in Hammerwatch, 200 hours in Heroes of Hammerwatch (mostly coop), but only 20 hours in Hammerwatch 2 (big miss for me). So for Heroes of Hammerwatch 2 I played the demo and was sold right away, played the demo again in coop and it was awesome as well.
Looking forward to putting the hours in this one.

- Comment on I got into the wrong career lol 2 weeks ago:
The fake news is fake news apparently. She has a video on her YouTube where she describes the whole thing and it seems true. However, I don’t know what sort of content she does on OnlyFans. She does show the max amount of cleavage possible on YouTube, but I’m not sure if she shows more than that on any other platform. Everything I could find was actual science content, except she is a very attractive lady wearing revealing clothes while telling the story. But I know OnlyFans also does chats for example where pictures don’t need to be exchanged at all, people will pay just to talk to an attractive person. She might also do feet pics, which can be highly valuable to some people.
So it’s implied she sorta dropped out of school to do porn. But it’s nothing like that, she has a couple of degrees already, had a nice side project going with her content creation on multiple platforms including YouTube and didn’t see a future for herself with the path she was on. So she switched to doing content creation fulltime.

Well you say that, but I’ve had legit discussions with coders that use things like Dvorak because it allows them to type faster and thus code faster. I pointed out the actual typing of the code is the easy part and only a very small part of the bigger task. This one coder that swore by Dvorak had an impressive typing speed for sure, but also a reputation he could never push his commits because the linter kept spotting typos. And even then wouldn’t get through testing because not all typos are caught by the linter. Of course he was the kind of developer that wrote 3000 lines of code before ever committing anything and testing for himself was beneath him, that was a job for the testers. Once he had lost a couple of days of work because he didn’t commit/push and when he booted his machine somehow his files got corrupted and all was lost. After that he was in trouble for the nteenth time and was let go, shame because I liked the guy.
Using alternative layouts to prevent rsi I’m all for, but optimizing typing speed seems like not the way to go. I’m old and learned to type on a typewriter and later horrible 80s keyboards (although some were nice as well), so I don’t care, as long as it has keys I’m OK to go.

It was too heavy to move, except for like the single truck that moved it when it crashed. It didn’t just get heavier over night did it?
It’s just code for nobody wanted to pay to have their shit cleaned up, so everyone just left it because who cares. I can’t imagine it’s much of an “attraction”, that’s just some smart local politician inventing an excuse to not have to clean it up.
- Comment on I wanna ROCK 2 weeks ago:
It’s also a pretty dumb rock to use as an example. If the moon were that color it would be way brighter than it is currently. And with a rock as shiny as that you would clearly see a reflection of the sun as well.
In real life the moon is about as bright as dark asphalt and because of all the dust it is very dull as well. So a matt black paint would probably be closer to what the moon looks like. Still bright as hell compared to the nothingness that surrounds it. Our eyes are also very good at low light conditions, once we get used to the dark a little bit of light goes a long way. So we can even pick out shadows in the moonlight on earth. A brighter moon would be annoying I think, imagine having some nights that look like early evening on a sunny day. But if we evolved with it we would be used to it I guess.
Just like with flat earth the glowing moon theory fails to explain the phases of the moon or things like eclipses. And why the glow doesn’t follow black body radiation, but instead perfectly follows the tell tale signs of reflected sunlight, Fraunhofer lines and all. And where the energy to generate that light would come from, making something glow as bright as the moon takes a lot of power. And why that power source selectively lights some parts some of the time. And where does the sunlight that hits the moon ends up, if it’s not reflected.
I would think it’s a troll, but these days you’d never know. Even if a troll for example claims vaccines cause autism for the grift, idiots still believe it.

- Comment on Do people still call each other at midnight on NYE? 2 weeks ago:
People calling each other at new years was a thing in the before times when texting was non-existent, expensive or not widespread. People would call each other usually on land lines and caused a lot of stress to the network. It could take hours to get through. When mobile phones became a thing, people tried to be trendy and call from a party, leading to total collapse of the local cell network.
Later when texting became the norm, it would also be easily overloaded and texts could take a while to get through. These days since everything goes through the internet, I wouldn’t expect there to be any issues. The internet can handle sudden increases much better.

All well and good as long as it’s something they own themselves. I’ve rather grown to hate all the public anti-vax, racist and far right stickers the idiots share on Telegram and plaster all over public property. Even in the nature reserve I like to walk to relax some dick has put Nazi stickers on every post in sight as well as all over informational signs telling people about the unique wildlife. It makes my blood boil, which is the opposite of relaxing in the forest.

As far as I know hPa is the preferred unit for air pressure and is used a lot. Usually referring to the air pressure of the atmosphere.
Also hectometer is used a lot when talking about land measurements. And we don’t mostly keep to mm and m, in my experience cm is the most used and most useful measurement for every day objects.
All of the different prefixes are valid and are used. It just depends on what context, which one is the most useful. No reason to stick to the 10^3 units, just use them all.

If we take the banana to be 180 grams and the square dishwasher to be 0.36 square meter, that would come to about 140,000 bananas per square dishwasher.

- Comment on EXCLUSIVE - Ubisoft Wants to Change the 'Far Cry Formula' with Far Cry 7 and Maverick 4 weeks ago:
I liked 3 and 4 fine, but I loved 5. It had mediocre gameplay, but the story and missions were fun, with a lot of Easter eggs. Especially in multi player coop it was pretty fun.
I absolutely despised 6. It was bland and very broken on release. It also felt like 3 games shoved together that didn’t really fit or interact. I later found it this was because that was exactly what they did. Due to covid the people working on it didn’t really work together and the end result was a total mismatch. The story was very predictable and not worth it, even though they marketed the hell out of it. The side stories were mostly absent and not interesting at all. The game lacked any humor and wasn’t self aware like 5 was. The amounts of crashes and bugs made the game borderline unplayable when it came out. And these weren’t the funny amount of jank I enjoy kind of crashes, these were proper game breaking bugs. There was no enemy variation at all and a lot of copy paste assets. To the point that every checkpoint that needed to be liberated had the exact same layout and enemies, down to the spawn location. The weapons and enemy strength made no sense at all. You’d use a big ass gun upgraded with special armor piercing bullets, shoot a regular dude right in the head and he would just shrug it off and keep going. The AI was also a joke, with enemies not reacting at all to what you did, just milling about and shooting at random. The game would send out special forces, which would promptly give up once you rode down the street. Some random pleb enemy on a corner could however snipe you at 300m somehow. The whole game made absolutely no sense.
The only interesting part was the firework backpack, but even this one fell pretty flat. There was one that was pretty OP, so that’s the one most people used. Which is a shame, because fucking around with different packs could have been interesting. These were also broken on release, where most of the times the rockets would clip into the character model and just explode. So instead of doing damage and helping in a fight, you’d just blow yourself up.
I played a good amount of Far Cry 5, 100% completing it a couple of times. I did the story for Far Cry 6 and some of the side stuff in about 12 hours, then uninstalled the game and never played it again. I was so disappointed, Far Cry is dead to me.

There is about 1,260,000,000,000,000,000,000 liter of water on Earth. Lets say Hitler was a pretty good water drinker and on average he ingested 4 liter of water (not just in drinking but also in food). Hitler lived for about 20,454 days and would have ingested about 81,816 of water. Lets say you are a water superfan and live to be 100 years old, then there is a chance of 0.001185845% you will drink some of the water that Hitler drunk at some point.
So it’s probably not been in Hitlers mouth. Dinosaur piss I’ll leave as an exercise for the reader.

- Comment on Do you want the murderer of the UnitHealthcare CEO prosecuted? 1 month ago:
Yes.
Even in a unjust world mob justice isn’t justice. This means a mob deciding someone is guilty and acting out punishment is unjust. But also a mob deciding a crime should go unpunished is unjust.
There’s plenty wrong with how insurance works and plenty wrong with the justice system. But instead of giving up, we should be trying to fix these issues. It’s all to easy to give in to our basic instincts and point to someone to blame. We punish them instead of fixing the issues. Killing one ceo might feel good, but it doesn’t really change the big picture and in fact constitutes layer upon layer of failure. We should be better than that. History is full of people (singular and groups) being used as a scape goat to deflect and feel like something is being done, whilst in fact not actually fixing anything and just feeding hate.
Also in a capitalist world, the people with the most money have the most power. If we collectively decide it’s open warfare, purge style distopia, they are going to have the upper hand. So purely from a self interest point of view, it would be better to work on fixing shit instead of reverting to monke.
