Agreed, I like both their mechanical pencils and pens, even if visually they are a bit too close.
- Comment on Minecraft is getting a visual overhaul you probably don't need because of all of those mods you've got installed 4 days ago:
“You don’t need (and therefore shouldn’t want) this obviously good thing” has this connotation that the Minecraft team has been wasting their time on pointless features, when in reality first-party support for a feature is nearly always more stable than a mod.
Plus read the article, the author is a vehement hater of Minecraft. What a joke.
- Comment on Minecraft is getting a visual overhaul you probably don't need because of all of those mods you've got installed 5 days ago:
What a weird passive aggressive headline. A better default is a good thing, and doesn’t stop modders from doing their own thing.

I like to see more AI in 3D workflows. The hardest part is making those final assets game ready - the topology is usually awful.
- Comment on PC gamers spend 92% of their time on older games, oh and there are apparently 908 million of us now 1 week ago:
Curious what makes Realmz so replayable. BG3 has so many unique storylines and endings you’d be hard pressed to play them all. Not to mention character classes and subclasses.

Maybe fried food is a sex thing?
- Comment on I kinda do know but I'm posting this as a joke. 1 week ago:
We are all Nicole on this blessed day.
- Comment on I'm just happy you thought it was funny, dear 1 week ago:
Especially with niche internet culture like here on Lemmy. Very few people understand the “highly sophisticated” bean memes we’ve got.
- Comment on Vintage Colgate Ad 2 weeks ago:
Kind of hilarious that they emulated moving pictures as a printed flyer. It’s not a moving picture guys.
- Comment on explain deez nutz 2 weeks ago:
Fair enough, though I promise at those pressures things get spicy.
- Comment on explain deez nutz 2 weeks ago:
It’s true. Give me a hot and dense enough furnace and I’ll recycle everything into iron. EVERYTHING.
- Comment on ‘Moana’ Trial Ends in Win for Disney as Company Is Cleared of Copyright Infringement 2 weeks ago:
As much as Disney is terrible, this lawsuit was always frivolous. Just because two ideas are similar doesn’t mean anything. It’s the details that truly matter.

No idea
- Comment on woolly mice on rice all nice 2 weeks ago:
Genetic researchers have created a breed of woolly mice loosely based on woolly mammoth phenotypes. This is supposed to be a test run before they try to do the harder job of recreating the mammoth.
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 and Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 show that the future of RPGs is in games way more ambitious, weird and unexpected than anything Bethesda and Bioware have to offer 3 weeks ago:
There are lots of things to physically fight back over, but video games ain’t one of them.
- Comment on Either a grocery store order went wrong or Coca-Cola strikes again 3 weeks ago:
Ew, swapping out real sugar for high fructose corn syrup.
- Comment on Either a grocery store order went wrong or Coca-Cola strikes again 3 weeks ago:
In the US it’s by serving size, which is a non-consistent unit of measurement. They are supposed to say how many mL one serving is, however. But that leaves you to do all the math yourself.
- Comment on dear republicans, what's the point of alienating every single ally of the US? 3 weeks ago:
If precedent still mattered, that would be comforting.
- Comment on dear republicans, what's the point of alienating every single ally of the US? 3 weeks ago:
That’s easy. Constitutionally, you can’t be President longer than 2 terms. Wartime emergency powers can stop elections, cementing power permanently.
- Comment on Kids these days 3 weeks ago:
Depends on if you’re in a red or blue state.
- Comment on This kind of f$&%ing packing foam 3 weeks ago:
I was both mistaken and correct.
I say mistaken because here’s what I was thinking: mealworms have been known to metabolize polystyrene for a long time:

I say correct because there is also active work on tailoring BSF larvae to do the same thing:
- Comment on This kind of f$&%ing packing foam 3 weeks ago:
As far as plastics go, at least it can decompose. Black soldierfly larvae can eat it!

If you have dependents and live in a city, each day might be more like $500.
- Comment on New USA fashion trend just dropped! 3 weeks ago:
I dig the meme, but not the fact it’s AI generated.
- Comment on Why's everyone freaking out about Firefox Terms of Service? Isn't it Open Source? 4 weeks ago:
The problem is that a reduction in trust correlates to a reduction in users. A reduction in Firefox increases Chromium’s dominance on the web, which is a near monopoly already. A monopoly on web renderers in turn is bad for open web standards.
- Comment on What the average maga dweeb look like 4 weeks ago:
Conservatives in the US think your only a Nazi if you live in the Nazi region of Germany. Otherwise you’re just a sparkling conservative.
- Comment on Three years later, the Steam Deck has dominated handheld PC gaming 4 weeks ago:
Citation for there never being a Steam Deck 2?
Because the interview at CES 2025 heavily implied it: youtu.be/UI-C-nZnDE8?t=525
- Comment on Indie devs have begun adding a no generative AI stamp to their store pages 4 weeks ago:
I agree that those are reasons people give for their reasoning, but if history has shown anything, we know people change their minds when it becomes most convenient to use a technology.
Human ethics is highly dependent on convenience, unfortunately.
- Comment on Indie devs have begun adding a no generative AI stamp to their store pages 4 weeks ago:
Right, I’m just saying that this has happened before to the definitions of AI.
- Comment on Indie devs have begun adding a no generative AI stamp to their store pages 4 weeks ago:
It’s all virtue signaling. If it’s good, nobody will be able to notice anyway and they’ll want it regardless. The only reason people shit on AI currently is because expert humans are still far better than it.
We’re just at that awkward point in time where AI is better than the random joe but worse than experts.
