- Comment on Switch 2 GameCube controller will only be offered to those who pre-order the console 1 week ago:
I mean, there’s plenty of reasons to not like Nintendo, but this whole thing is because the GameCube coming to their Online subscription. So I mean… it makes sense.
- Comment on Wild Blue is a spiritual Star Fox sequel from one of the SNES game's original programmers 5 weeks ago:
That’s uh, quite the premiere video…
Still, this could be really good so definitely interested.
- Comment on Square Enix will be revisiting Chrono Trigger in several projects in 2025 to mark game's 30th anniversary 5 weeks ago:
Didn’t it also have to change the soundtrack for some of it? It was just like recomposed or whatever but I remember it being something weird for legal reasons.

Maybe another album like brink or time, or they’ll rerelease the anime. Lol. Honestly idk. I am stoked for whatever it is but I doubt we get a bunch of new (full) games or movies or etc. in the setting.
I would be down for a dirge of Cerberus type attempt at something new following Janus after he was thrown back in time into becoming magus, or following Glenn & Cyrus chasing after magus pre-frogenning. Doubt we get anything like that tho.

Yeah it was pretty bad at release, the smoothing was bad too. Fixed both how it looks and letting you disable it, and some other settings that were weird from what I remember.

3 times as actually “remastered” others were just ports. PS1, which got anime cutscenes, 3DS or DS I forget, which got added content, and most recently on PC which was just basically a port of the mobile port of the 3DS version but it did have a filter for pixel smoothing and I forget what else.

- Comment on Erasure 2 months ago:
I’m sorry… she sounds sexist because when she talked about the article on her at nasa she mentioned… her dreams… her being raised poor… her being homeless… and… her getting a job at Nasa despite all that. Huh oh wait weird I missed the part where she made it all about her being a woman? because… she didn’t even do that? She wasn’t even highlighting that she is important as a role model to women in STEM. Didn’t even mention it in the part discussing the article that was erased. She was highlighting being a role model of achieving her dream job even though she was poor and homeless at one point. And was simply pointing out that it is being erased BECAUSE she is a woman. and you are calling HER sexist? Are you high? Can you read? You just enter a fugue state when you see the word women and make shit up that didn’t happen so you can feel better about yourself? Cuz I’m super confused how you can get sexist from what she said without just assuming she’s sexist because she is a woman.

Hopefully this goes well. Know they said they literally have more money than they know what to do with, this seems a good way to be able to use that.

Most sites I’ve ordered from that use shop will still email a link to tracking number, you don’t need to download shop to track it.
- Comment on Do Not Buy NZXT | Predatory, Evil Rental Computer Scam Investigated - Gamers Nexus 4 months ago:
I mean, I could see if they tried to make this rent-to-own over 2-3 years. At half the price they’re offering.
But renting… where you’re paying over the entirety of the price in a single year, is fucking insane.
If renting, and updating it every 2 years, then for like 1/4th of the price then sure. I could see it being promoted how they are. Rent out older stock for 50% retail to at least get some value out of it while allowing people to pay ~$30 a month for a decent computer. (and then you could “upgrade” the lower tier with this to end up recouping 75% of retail over 4 years.)
But who the fuck is paying 10% of the cost a month to borrow an okay computer, even ignoring the full month cancelation fee, and ridiculous contract. (which is… ignoring a LOT.)
It is sad to see NZXT lowered to this as I used to have a decent view of them. They make some nice cases. CAM kinda lowered that view a bit, but I was in the beta for that and got a free water cooler out of it so I could overlook that. And pushing their own not as great products for the prebuilts still seemed okay for prebuilts for those scared to build on their own. But this is just… too much to overlook. Wild.
- Comment on Do Not Buy NZXT | Predatory, Evil Rental Computer Scam Investigated - Gamers Nexus 4 months ago:
Yeah but I don’t ever use or look at that. Honestly, almost never go to look for shit later on here, so not a habit I have. So if I did save it, I wouldn’t see it til like 6 months from now and I’d probably just go… why the fuck is this saved? And delete it.

Commenting to watch this later
- Comment on This feels wrong. I love it. 5 months ago:
Yes. Also if you think of i as a 90° rotation (with a length of the scalar coefficient infront of i, in this case 1) . Thus one rotates you outwards away from the 2D plane, and two of those gets you back to the 2D plane, just going the other direction.

- Comment on Finish him. 🪓 10 months ago:
While I believe they answered well, the short being it being published doesn’t mean it is automatically science, there are plenty of shitty publications that care more about number of articles than ensuring good practices, and good peer review.
The point of what he was saying was that you need to publish it for it to be science tho, as science is there to build knowledge and increase our understanding, and not publishing does not allow that and thus is not science, even if the methods were good and the logic was sound.
- Comment on Finish him. 🪓 10 months ago:
If it’s not published it’s not science. The Contrapositive is if it is science, then it is published.
Not if it is published it is science.

Nah it was 2018 (with two others). Had to check if he has two, but nope.
- Comment on He came with receipts 10 months ago:
Dude won a Turing award 6 years ago, is a major player in a field that is rapidly expanding, Professor at NYU, and thus is likely part of a lot of different research going on. He may not be writing up all 80 personally, but his work and name is part of them. If it was some nobody working in a slower field I would definitely be cautious about 80 papers in 5 years.

- Comment on With public key cryptography, why can't someone decrypt a message using the public key? 1 year ago:
Look at it more like this. Say I tell you to pick any number, square it, and then add 5. Say I did this and my answer was 41. What was my original number? 90% of people will answer 6, but my answer was -6. Now only doing that once isn’t hard, but basically it’s because the inverse of the function is not a function that I can’t always get back to it. Now do that a few thousand different ways in the same problem and good fucking luck.
- Comment on Stardew Valley creator confirms harvesting in a certain direction is faster - but not for long, as 1.6 fix due 1 year ago:
pffft why nerf one thing when you can buff every other thing in the entire game including the enemies. Obviously way easier to do that than nerf one overperforming thing.
