  This perfectly describes my experience working with IT “professionals”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Suggestions for a top down game that is genuinely different to all the others?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Try Cogmind, Caves of Qud or Dwarf Fortress maybe?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do people develop feelings for someone?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  To like someone means you enjoy their presence. If people enjoy it when you’re present you’re almost guaranteed to eventually have someone take interest in you.

  For people to enjoy your presence you need to be comfortable with yourself as an individual before anything else.

  Wasn’t this in Particle Fever? That doc is incredible.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Comedian Russell Brand charged with rape⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Why am I not surprised?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are Nintendo's $80 online game prices a result of tariffs or is Nintendo just using them as an excuse to price gouge as corporations do?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Honest question because I’m OOTL, but haven’t games been this price for a long time now and weren’t Switch games even more expensive than this?

  I’m a bit confused.

  I’m kinda feeling the same. The MGS3 story/execution is much weaker than 2 IMO but there are some cool gameplay advancements over 2. Oddly its just much less immersive as an experience, but its still quite good.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How Ubisoft spent $2.1M on influencers to secure the launch of Assassin's Creed Shadows⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I really don’t think Ubisoft needs to advertise a new Assassins Creed game beyond a few ads here and there, and chatting with some journalists. Spending a ton of money to allow people to play it ahead of time on stream just dilutes the experience for anyone that intends on buying the game.

  Seriously, the last thing I want is for the start of a new game to be spoiled for me by some streamer.

  Chrono Trigger with my wife. Having a blast with that. Almost done Metal Gear Solid on Extreme difficulty. That game is a true masterpiece. The extreme modes in MGS make them even better if you ask me.

  Finished MGS2 a couple days ago. Those final codec calls are prophetic and terrifying. Another masterpiece.

  Playing through MGS3 for the first time with my buddy too. Good fun.

  Was he asking for a Budweiser? lol

  This, but she’s also very pretty.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AYANEO Pocket MICRO Classic is a tiny Android handheld without analog sticks for $179 and up - Liliputing⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That price is insane when the Miyoo Mini+ is under $100 CAD.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Favorite Racing Game Soundtrack?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Art Of Rally!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨gigachad⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The scope of each of those games is so vastly different that I don’t think that’s a fair comparison. The art styles are wildly different too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Zelenskiy news is a farce and it is infuriating to see Goebbels' Garbage here⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This is the same brand of thinking that props up the flat earth community.

  Everything’s a conspiracy and everyone but “us” is in on it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨EA has open sourced Command & Conquer: Red Alert under GPLv3⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This is an opportunity where if you’d used your brain you’d have come to a different conclusion.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨place yer bets⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Its not nearly big enough to wipe out the planet. Not even close.

  It would just cause suffering for thousands/hundreds of thousands of people. Are you OK with that?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨nuked from orbit⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yikes. Image

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Liquid Death Quietly Adds Stevia to Tea Drinks⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Weh, this got heated real quick.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rockstar has some of the most restrictive mission design I've ever experienced⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Insta-fail on spotted should be a difficulty option like in Metal Gear.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Is this a legit site? Seems weird.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's your "this is totally fine and I'm going to have a great time" FPS?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I think 60FPS is totally fine. 30 is only OK on slower moving games or era-appropriate consoles; Halo on the OG Xbox for example.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's your "this is totally fine and I'm going to have a great time" FPS?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  In this day and age, anything below 60FPS 1080p is unacceptable. If a new game can’t hit that target on 3 year old hardware, the game is unfinished.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Severance - Intro Title Sequence / Credits / Opening 4K ( Apple TV+) Official.(1:26)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Season 2 sequence is the bedt I’ve ever seen.

  Yeah I noticed this too. Brutal.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK Orders Apple To Break Encryption Worldwide While World Is Distracted⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  +1 for FUTO. The keyboard and voice to text is awesome.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can I lose a beer belly working out one day a week?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Personal anecdote here: I run 40km/week so that I don’t have to be so picky with my diet. I’m offsetting about 2,400cal from my weekly intake.

  That said, I need to be careful sometimes because my appetite can surge and I can easily break even and even surpass being in a deficit. Its just a matter of being aware of how much I’m eating in general and adapting to appetite changes.

  That said, when I want a pizza I’m gonna smash that pizza down my gullet lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Day 204 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Why did you feel the need to be a dick about it? Just block and move along.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My YouTube homepage after I watch one balatro video⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  A curated algorithm on Youtube is honestly amazing. I get comments about mine all the time when people come over and see it on my TV.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My YouTube homepage after I watch one balatro video⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is the way to be. Any time I see someone else’s feed in YT I almost always cringe in horror at what they’re being force fed. Curate your algorithms folks!
