1643 day streak here, and it still looks like it’s going to die on me any second now. I guess it was just an icon change (but… why?!)
- Comment on $70 titles are doomed to go “the way of the dodo” says Saber Interactive CEO 2 months ago:
How about, instead of spending millions on marketing and exercises or graphical virtuosity that do nothing in terms of playability, innovation and fun, focusing on what matters and do games where $70 still turns a huge profit?

I guess someone should come up with an idea for config.sys next!
- Comment on Does anyone feel like an actual adult? 7 months ago:
Growing old is mandatory. Growing up is optional.
So much this!
I see myself a bit in all those stages, but i don’t think i ever really ever (temporarily) outgrew “childish” things. Always liked cartoons, always read comics, always played games, and always told those that chided me for not growing up to fuck off. Now entering my 50s, the biggest difference is that people don’t have the courage to bother me about it anymore (and in the rare occasions when they do they don’t argue back after being told off :P )
- Comment on Defederate/delete communities from FMHY lemmy instances? 10 months ago:
Isn’t there a way to defederate but leave history intact? The fact that no new posts are coming from that source doesn’t mean there aren’t useful posts from when they were active/federated (that some users may have saved, etc.). As a general rule, the loss of information seems to me like a bad thing. Defederating should prevent new posts from reaching other servers, but not retroactively change what was already there.
As for new users subscribing: is should be something baked in the subscription mechanism, not letting you subscribe to something from a (currently) defederated server.
- Comment on If the body's natural temperature is about 98 degrees (F), why does it still feel really hot when the ambient temperature is 98F? 10 months ago:
Your body, as a warm-blooded animal, tries to keep a constant temperature (around 98°F or 37°C). Thing is, the body is constantly producing more heat (your metabolism at work…) and needs to get rid of the excess. If the air around you is at the same temperature as you are, it is very hard for heat exchange to take place (for you to get cooler as the air gets hotter) and, thus, you overheat a bit and feel warm.
This is why wind makes you feel cooler: it moves the heated air away from your body and brings in new, cooler air, making the exchange more efficient. Evaporation takes heat away as well, hence we sweat to col ourselves down.
- Comment on Hasbro Wants Old Transformers Games To Return, But Activision Lost Them 10 months ago:
I had one for the PS2, if memory serves, that sucked balls so hard it is a clear contender for Worst Game I’ve ever played (and I’ve been playing for over 40 years, now…)
