This list is not muffin approved.

I’ll have to give the Gamecube version a try
- Comment on I regret to inform you all that I will not be purchasing the OoT remake. 4 days ago:
I can’t play OoT. The controls are too terrible. Even the decomp project SoH still uses the god awful N64 control scheme.

If I could have generative AI make me a paradise world that I could escape to whenever I’m not making money to pay for the paradise world, I wouldn’t give AF. Also, Star Trek has Fusion and Matter/Anti-matter power generation that’s nearly entirely clean.
Unfortunately, the best our AI can do is make people with 6 fingers and write bad code while using all the water and electricity.

Incredible
- Comment on Xbox lays off 268 more employees, merges Obsidian into Bethesda and puts Activision in charge of Halo 1 week ago:
I agree, but I just find it hilarious that Microsoft reorganized and renamed 343 to Halo Studios, just to basically cut it’s head off.
- Comment on Xbox lays off 268 more employees, merges Obsidian into Bethesda and puts Activision in charge of Halo 1 week ago:
So is Halo Studios/343 just…dead now? Seems like they’re dead if they don’t have Halo. Kind of in their name.

In the grand scheme of the entire evolutionary history of Earth, the 1980s to now is an INCREDIBLY small slice.
- Comment on Why is that a problem? Did something bad happen in 1929? 4 weeks ago:
Where is the source for this? I’d like to use it to inform people, but that’s hard with just a picture of a tweet.
- Comment on This isn't fair 5 weeks ago:
Depends on whether that hour of labor is going to a company that then pays a fraction of the fee to the employee or not. If so, the employee makes the same and the company increased the price.

Cal Kestis…I have to fight the Empire, but I’ve got force powers and a sweet laser sword. Worth it.

- Comment on Housing prices 1 month ago:
Which is why I said that these things aren’t mutually exclusive. Diet adjustments to reduce or eliminate meat consumption is one of MANY global warming things that we should be doing. Not allowing data centers to fire up 20-40+ unregulated natural gas turbines is another. Promoting public transit in all cities is another.
It’s not an easy solution that you can just point a single finger at, but you can point at several big ones.

-
Private equity buyers absolutely are contributing to housing prices skyrocketing. The percentage of their effect is up for debate, but as someone who bought a home in the last few years, I was fighting big investors that were making cash offers left and right on every house I tried to get.
-
Meat production is one of the largest green house gas emitters, but data centers aren’t helping either. BOTH can be a problem. It’s and AND statement, not an OR.

Ori and the Blind Forest/Will of the Wisps: I picked up the first game in a Humble Bundle years ago and decided to play it randomly. Instantly became obsessed and then got the sequel when I beat it.

Edge uses the same rendering engine as Chrome. Web devs need to check to make sure different browsers respond to CSS, JavaScript, HTML, etc. the same way, as they all don’t necessarily do so, even though they should.
- Comment on Loosing my religion 2 months ago:
I have a few:
- When looking at the video feed from a night vision camera, my parents tried to convince me the white specs floating around were angels and souls watching over is (it was dust in the air refracting the infrared)
- Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton are part of a baby murdering cult were they skin baby faces to wear as masquerade masks
- Bill Gates is building COVID-19 nanites and putting them in the vaccines
- The whole QAnon conspiracy stuff they REALLY got into
- My wife and I are being controlled by the devil and now our kids are damned because we got them vaccinated, since it’s “The Mark of the Beast”.
My parents are estranged now. You can imagine why.
- Comment on Loosing my religion 2 months ago:
Yeah it’s actually incredible the mental gymnastics involved.
It’s also fun when a Republican is involved, because it’s “clearly overblown or fake”, but when it’s someone they don’t like, THEN it’s a problem.
- Comment on Loosing my religion 2 months ago:
My parents told me that the Clinton’s, Gates family, and other influential people go to masquerade parties where they murder babies and wear their skin ask masks. And they were 100% serious.
In the world of Epstein Island revelations, there is some fucked up stuff out there, but I’m pretty sure we’d know if people were mass slaughtering babies for fun.
- Comment on Loosing my religion 2 months ago:
My parents nearly didn’t let me read or watch Harry Potter “cuz witchcraft”. There is a lot of stupid out there.

As someone who grew up in a conservative, Baptist home, I can tell you that this 100% isn’t the most insane thing I’ve heard or seen, but it falls right in line.

True, but it at least covers all of the purchases actually made on the platform.
