I’m still annoyed that they deleted classic D2 from my battle.net account. I used to be able to download that and get several classic games installed from registering CD keys back in the day. Now it’s just a prompt to buy remastered :(

As proud clankerists, we can all agree that technological progress has gone too far! And we’ll get right on that as soon as we vanquish the real threat – the clankerites, those splitters!
- Comment on Veganuary 1 week ago:
reductio ad absurdum, actually.
You claimed that this statement was not true:
There are no nutrients that are exclusively available via meat/dairy.
i.e. claimed that there are some nutrients that can only be sourced via meat or dairy.
An obligate carnivore must eat meat to live, like, say, if the only source of needed nutrients is meat?
Where did I lose you on this? Is it the “or dairy” escape hatch?
FFS, you could have just given an example of a nutrient you mistakenly think is only available via meat or dairy. Then I could have judged your post on its merits instead of this displeasure of a thread.

Are you sure about that? Got any examples of nutrients that make humans obligate carnivores?

I played it. Beautiful game. Terrifying.
I didn’t think I had thalassophobia until Subnautica.

What did you think of Torchlight? I’m a bit surprised it didn’t make your list.
…well, then again, I haven’t played anything you listed, so I can’t compare.

Similar. I played a lot of Diablo 2 back in the day, but Blizzard got a lot worse as a game publisher during the years they were focused on WoW. I’m not super interested in starting up on Diablo 3 or 4 or even Starcraft 2.
For a different direction on this – I played Subnautica. It was terrifying. I’m not going to get the expansion or Subnautica 2 when it comes out. shudder

I’d be suspicious of a tres leches cake made with coconut cream. Somehow, I don’t think it would taste right.

Oh, I think it checks out. Maybe it should be “fly to space” or “fly rocket ships”, but the point of the job is the trip. Unless – hmm. Did explorers of yesteryear have BS jobs, too?

Hard disagree. No books should ever be burned. Don’t legitimize the practice.
