That was fantastic, what a ride of a season. Not sure if I’d fly as a passenger of his, but I enjoyed the ride watching.

This was a triumph
I’m making a note here
“Huge success”
It’s hard to overstate my satisfaction
- Comment on Sesame St is great 4 days ago:
More than just upsetting to viewers, the messaging of Snuffleupagus was leading to kids thinking that adults wouldn’t believe them if they were being harmed:
The fear was that if we represented adults not believing what kids said, they might not be motivated to tell the truth. That caused us to rethink the storyline: Is something we’ve been doing for 14 years—that seemed innocent enough—now something that’s become harmful?

Yeah, it was clear they just wanted a big name to have on the poster. The actress who played the child version of Furiosa was fantastic though.

My understanding from reading Wikipedia is that both sides are moving opposite against each other, so from the observation side, it looks much faster than it would look if observed directly above.

Million dollar idea (that probably violates campaign finance laws): Come up with a service that allows you to donate to any candidate, and will not sell or share your information, and will never contact you. The fee is $1 regardless of the donation amount. There has to be 1m people who would find this worth the added fee.

Agreed, the only way this would be acceptable if this was in an application for a Social Media manager position?
- Comment on Why Do Sovereign Citizens Keep Pursuing Unsuccessful Legal Defenses? 2 weeks ago:
If I had to guess, i think most of it comes down to not wanting to understand how society works, and finding it easier to think everything should come for free to them. If I couldn’t afford my car payments and someone told me that if you’re a sovereign citizen, you don’t have to pay, I could see how desperation could lead people to think they could get out of obligations. There’s also probably a large group of influencers and scammers who are incentivized to spread this misinformation, which is how it spreads.
It’s also likely that for minor infractions, they’re let off with a warning from an officer who doesn’t want to deal with them, and this emboldens them to think they’re correct in how society functions, until they get an officer who won’t put up with them, or do something so egregious, it can’t be ignored.

The issue I had with slingshot was in whatever version released for the switch at release, maybe in 1.3? Tbh I have not tried with the slingshot in newer versions
- Comment on 'Andor' creator reveals scrapped K-2SO 'horror movie' episode 2 weeks ago:
They could always have a horror spin off show of the spy thriller show, that is a prequel of an action movie, that’s a prequel to the original movie.
- Comment on Stardew Valley creator says he might make Stardew Valley 2 2 weeks ago:
having played maybe 500 hours with controller only, maybe I don’t know what I’m missing, but the controls don’t seem that bad. Only thing which comes to mind as terrible is the slingshot, i never even try to use that.

- Comment on Tulsi Gabbard Reused the Same Weak Password on Multiple Accounts for Years 3 weeks ago:
Perhaps, but like actual hygiene, not having good digital hygiene stays with you between personal and work personas. It is troubling considering she is the Director of National Intelligence and it’s something which should be a baseline requirement for the position. Regardless of party affiliation, it’s competence we should demand for those in these positions.

- Comment on 'Black Mirror: Bandersnatch' and 'Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt' Interactive Specials Leaving Netflix 3 weeks ago:
Netflix has a games division, I don’t see why they wouldn’t release it as an app, so they can remove the interactive functionality from their main player, but keep it available to subscribers.

I may have turned off the dumb AI Overview, but at least trying “is natalie portman in heat” actually gives relevant results.
- Comment on Why hasn't congress passed a law saying that you can only deport people *back to their own country*? 5 weeks ago:
I know you’re not defending the administration, but I wouldn’t consider the administration’s position to have any merit. They sent him to the prison and are paying for him to be imprisoned there. Giving them an inch of credibility on technicalities just means they’ll continue to do what they’re doing.

Unfortunately for Kilmar Abrego Garcia, he is from El Salvador and in 2019, an immigration judge granted him withholding of removal status due to the danger he faced from gang violence if he returned to El Salvador.
- Comment on Does the 2 hour refund limit on Steam affect game design? 5 weeks ago:
Right yeah enjoyable entertainment is my requirement, why pay for something and waste my time if I’m not having fun
- Comment on Does the 2 hour refund limit on Steam affect game design? 5 weeks ago:
I haven’t heard of the game but see that it’s going for $27. For me at least, buying a $27 game, I’d expect 10 hours minimum of enjoyable gameplay, which throws the free refund out the window if it would deliver.
It could be possible that they wanted to increase their game length to justify the price and stretched things if the first 80 minutes were tedious and slow. I’m sure there’s some consideration to front load the enjoyment into the first few hours, with or without the refund, but I would assume lesser priced games would focus on that and not one going for this price.
