- Comment on Why are people still romanticizing No Man’s Sky’s “redemption” arc? 4 hours ago:
Praise where praise is due: They did pump out a ton of free updates. Does this compensate for the terrible state the game was released in? That’s something everyone needs to judge for themselves imo.
Does the game have what they once promised now? Is it “good” yet? I think that’s a more difficult question. If I was to criticise Hello Games for anything, than that even now they have not met some of the expectations they set. At least not for me personally.
And I’m not talking about bs speculation or hype, I am talking about things they have said would be in the game, some of which are still not here, and many of them feel like an alpha version of what you would expect. I can’t help but feel disappointed even today.

They can speak, they just act like they can’t in front of foreigners. I am learning “Dutch” and am 100% convinced this whole language is a hoax

“How relevant is inflation, considering there is so much inflation that…”

Isn’t the Switch 2 is cheaper in today’s money than the PS3 was without a decade of inflation?
- Comment on PFP Evolution 1 week ago:
I only watched S1 and the very start of S2, but I would say there is clearly a much worse one. If he just picked her the series would have been over immediately, another big plus.

Wikipedia says the lethal dose is estimated to be 6.5 to 13 mg / kg of body weight. Following that, a cig couldn’t possibly kill you. Probably not even when injected into a vein
- Comment on Sean Murray just crushed my hopes of playing Light No Fire anytime soon 1 month ago:
Bro got media trained the hard way. Given their comeback he could probably make a career in PR if he ever feels like quitting games

Strike evrything and put rent there. That’s the most expensive cities.

Wdym “Brits and”? I’ve only ever heard about that being a thing in GB, and I don’t think it’s all that popular there either

Who needs housing, medicare, tourism, foreign relations, chips, rare earths, democracy, independent media, uncensored internet, demilitarized police, social security, general education, affordable higher education, a clean environment, worker’s rights, women’s rights, sexual freedom, separations of powers, separation of church and state and probably a couple dozen other things anyway?
- Comment on How AI and Wikipedia have sent vulnerable languages into a doom spiral 2 months ago:
I thought Wikipedia doesn’t accept anything that seems AI generated? In other words, the worse the article the smaller the chance it will make it on the platform

Note that you can share games from GOG, but it is illegal probably everywhere where GOG is available and if law enforcement ever catches on, you’re fucked.
Afaik this is not happening right now, but there’s nothing stopping GOG from poisoning your downloads in a way that ties all copies to your account

Domino’s is ridiculously overpriced in Europe. So much so that I bought pizza there once and then never again.

- Comment on New 7-Zip high-severity vulnerabilities expose systems to remote attackers — users should update to version 25 ASAP 3 months ago:
Yeah, sure, and the remote hackers access my system how exactly to run 7-Zip? Do they use the well know ZIP-socket Linux exposes, designed to unzip stuff for random people in case of archival emergencies?

- Comment on A Flagship Smartphone With Kill Switches? Meet the Murena-Powered HIROH Phone 3 months ago:
The HIROH Phone (Powered by Murena) is available for pre-sale. You can pay a €/$ 99 deposit to reserve your device and get a voucher to buy it later for €/$ 999, discounted from the retail price of €/$ 1,199.
1,200 moneys is an absurd price for a phone like that IMO. You can get a Fairphone for literally half that. I’m not so sure there is a market for ‘premium privacy phones’ that is not already satisfied by (also significantly cheaper) Pixels with GrapheneOS
