A bladed razor. One of these days I’m gonna splurge for one the headblades with the wheels.

0% because my barber is an asshole. (I shave my own head in the shower)

The hidden blocklist was a shitty thing to do. But the final DDOS was just fucking immature and petty. Any high ground he could have possibly claimed was just completely nullified with that move.
I understood the sentiment of wanting to remove drama. But you idea of drama is not everyone’s idea of drama. Had he made it a feature, documented what it was, who was on it, and why he thought that, it might have been a blip. But the whole way it was handled just screamed fascist to me. Oh well… bye Felicia.

Hey dumbass, voluntarily can have two flavors, willingly and begrudgingly.
I love paying more for shit for no fucking reason. The mental gymnastics these chuckle fucks use is astounding.
- Comment on Miyamoto: Games based on developers’ personal interests resonate around the world, not those aiming for global appeal | VGC 6 days ago:
I have more interest in someone’s passion than a game designed by committees and interests groups.

- Comment on Former Valve writer says PlayStation killing physical discs is no conspiracy: "You, the consumer, have made your choice, and the choice is for digital" 1 week ago:
Yes it is a conspiracy. Sony doesn’t want physical games for a whole bunch of reasons not least of which is control and greed. And if you think this is a new thing you would be wrong. They have been pushing this quietly for years. Second hand sales, game rentals, trading… these are all things that cut into Sony’s profits. If you ever want a reason follow the money.
- Comment on Only 7 PlayStation games have sold over 100,000 physical copies in the US this year, says analyst, as commenters demand discs without buying them 1 week ago:
They’ve been making it difficult to get physical copies for years. Case it point: try to get a copy of Baulders Gate 3. I had to go out of my way for a physical copy of Death Stranding 2.
If I don’t have the disc they can remove my ability to play it. Heck even with the disc they can remove my ability with all of the online requirements for games that DO NOT need them. And with digital only I can’t transfer my copy to another user so no after market sales which means more profit for them since everyone has to buy new.
So I’m not the slightest surprised that they would bring out this statistic. It fits their narrative to a tee.
- Comment on EA VP Urges Companies To Think About In-Game Ads During Development: ‘That’s A Huge Opportunity’ 1 week ago:
Certain games this might be ok in, depending on the game. I mean say like in games like Cyberpunk and there are ads everywhere. It’s part of the world. Maybe that. But some ancient fantasy game, fuck no.
- Comment on EA VP Urges Companies To Think About In-Game Ads During Development: ‘That’s A Huge Opportunity’ 1 week ago:
The whole point of my favorite games, especially the single player versions, is the escapism. The “I do not want to think about the current world or its problems”. You start throwing ads in the game, that aspect is completely removed. I will never play a game that has this in it. Walking through Tamriel and some fucking beverage or mobile game pops up and I’m gonna fire bomb some game execs million dollar house.

Digital games are fine as long as I have to ability to trade and sell. That’s the only thing digital games gave me that I cared about.

So I guess it’s either hold your phone flat or the earth is flat, but not both. The orientation change when he changed.

The “retro” gaming market is going to absolutely suck in 30 years because you don’t “own” anything.
- Comment on Am I just bad at games??? 5 weeks ago:
Does it matter if you are? As long as you are having fun and enjoying yourself.
But oof… the game crashing and 10 minute load times. Either that game is horribly optimized or you got something wrong with your machine.

Yeah by my calc a 1kg of $100 bills is about 100K, but the kg of gold is roughly $140k-150K (I just checked and its $144K)
But then I’d have to sell the gold…
- Comment on What’s your favorite video game that most people didn’t like ?? 1 month ago:
I lost an entire semester of college due to UFO: Enemy Unknown (a.k.a. X-COM: UFO Defense). This was in ‘94. I really need to go look at the later games. But man I loved that game.
