- Comment on The signatures are still coming and it's already making an impact 14 hours ago:
The devs would probably prefer if their work for several years wasn’t thrown in the trash. It’s the publishers and suits killing games.
- Comment on The roses, of course. Ow. 2 weeks ago:
The hand would have an ace pop out of the sleeve. I think the robot did something too.
- Comment on Good job 3 weeks ago:
Also they changed the permission model and introduced UAC, but it took developers forever to update and stop constantly writing to sensitive OS locations.

Alex Acosta was the prosecutor that gave Epstein a sweetheart deal the first time. Trump rewarded him by making him Secretary of Labor.

You shouldn’t be sleeping soundly. Most of you are only a few steps behind us on the same path.

Or buy a yubikey and set it up as a backup MFA on at least your email and password manager, then keep it in a fireproof safe.
- Comment on Gave him an offer, then took it away. Thanks PayPal. 1 month ago:
Most business people are too stupid to handle paragraphs with more than 2-3 sentences. I’m not joking and I literally have to write emails like this if I want them read.
- Comment on RIP obsolete tech 1 month ago:
People keeping old ass industrial equipment alive. I had to buy some CD-Rs because it was the only way to get files off an ancient Win95 machine that had no network or USB ports. The machinery it interacts with costs a million dollars, so replacing it is no small thing.

They do not in any way, shape or form beat borracho beans.

And real gorditas are nothing like the taco bell version. They’re more like an arepa or really thick tortilla split down the middle and stuffed with meat.

- Comment on Virgin Physicists 3 months ago:
Real world resistors usually have a tolerance of ±5%, so you’ll never get anything that precise.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 months ago:
The human brain has a pattern recognition system. It is not just a pattern recognition system.
- Comment on Definitely didn't waste half an hour making this 3 months ago:
Pentel Twist-erase 0.7 is the proper answer.
- Comment on Anon is a reader 3 months ago:
They have particularly nimble pelvic muscles.
- Comment on tig ol bitties 3 months ago:
Just looking at them, they appear fairly similar to nebulas within our own galaxy. It took sophisticated spectroscopic measurements to realize they’re actually much further away.
- Comment on Please answer. 3 months ago:
Depends on the species of mold, but enough of them are toxic that the general advice is to avoid them all
- Comment on I love the future. 4 months ago:
Not proud of it, but I saw a steroid clit instead.
- Comment on check it before you wreck it 4 months ago:
Call me a downer if you want, but I think scientific papers should be above using clickbait titles. They should be dry, boring and technical so that there’s no doubt that a paper is popular because of its contents and not the personality of its writer.
- Comment on Valve ban advertising-based business models on Steam, no forced adverts like in mobile games 4 months ago:
Valve are the ones that popularized loot boxes. They’re never going to tackle them.
- Comment on It's not easy being cheesy 4 months ago:
Leopard balls apparently are.
- Comment on Steam now warns about Early Access that have not been updated in months. 4 months ago:
I doubt Epic would give out the number of free games they do if they were public. Investors hate anything that takes more than a quarter to give returns.
- Comment on How did a simple phone call become so problematic? 5 months ago:
Cold calling is the equivalent of barging into someone’s house and yelling “Fuck you and what you’re doing. I’m more important.”
- Comment on How did a simple phone call become so problematic? 5 months ago:
Sure, but cold calling someone is still a dick move. Professionals have schedules and deadlines. The proper etiquette is to first engage over email or text and ask if they’re free for a call.
- Comment on How did a simple phone call become so problematic? 5 months ago:
If I’m trying to work on something complicated, it takes 20-30 minutes to remind myself of all the disparate pieces and get into the “zone” of productivity. Your phone call ruins that and I have to start the process over again. If people keep calling or shoulder tapping me, I get nothing done.
- Comment on Steam has the best UI 5 months ago:
They have plenty of competitors. They just suck in comparison.
- Comment on Anon goes on a first date 5 months ago:
That’s a nice sentiment, but there is almost certainly a mismatch in supply and demand for men who are anime and video game nerds.
- Comment on Choosing pink is chaotic evil? 5 months ago:
There’s not a few people you’d want to shit themselves to death? Not even Putin?
- Comment on Justice should be equal 6 months ago:
Looking at this, the vast majority of them are adults: …wikipedia.org/…/List_of_school_shootings_in_the_…
The far bigger reason is that most don’t survive to be prosecuted.
- Comment on Frostpunk creators cancel "Project 8" and lay off staff amid concerns that "narrative-driven, story-rich games" don't sell 6 months ago:
I’m going to guess they mean “narrative driven games” like Hellblade or Indika, which were all narrative and almost no game.
