• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨KFC drops pledge to stop using ‘Frankenchickens’ in the UK⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  KFC’s reasoning is that the chicken supply industry hasn’t transitioned to more humanitarian chickens yet, but frustratingly the article doesn’t validate this claim.

  It KFC is correct and they’re reliant on an industry that hasn’t got the supply it needs, then it’s impossible for them to meet the targets they set and it makes sense they would have to walk back the pledge.

  However if the industry does have that supply, then KFC is full of shit.

  So which is it?

  Don’t worry about not having any insights, I still valve-ued the pun.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon takes the horsepill⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I also had a colleague in the UK casually talking in the break room if she should buy a house or a horse because they were comparatively expensive.

  It’s not a joke.

  TL;DW the stuttering is also present on console and doesn’t appear to be shader compilation.

  Cat.

  Screech literally did porn.

  You know what, shout out to Concord here. The official definition of a concord:

  agreement or harmony between people or groups.

  Everyone did in fact agree not to play the game.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steven Spielberg is ‘a big PC Gamer’ — loves shooters, and insists on keyboard and mouse⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yup I’m with you here. I love KBM and it’s my preferred way to play for most games, but when it comes to driving I’d much prefer a controller with analogue triggers and a stick (unless it’s a sim racer, in which case a wheel of course) for that extra precision.

  Unfortunately I can’t think of a good design to give that level of control to just one hand. Analogue keys are a thing but they sound awful, nowhere near enough precision due to the short travel of them.

  I went to the cinema on Saturday and didn’t get a trailer for this. This post is the first I’ve heard of it too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon has a discord gf⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yup, with a LD relationship like that, you have to fill in a lot of blanks about someone that you can’t determine - how are they in the morning? Do they pick up after themselves? Do they have any gross habits? There’s tonnes of little things that are entirely irrelevant in a remote setting but can really make a difference in person.

  And naturally when you fill in those blanks, you tend to only fill them in with positives or you just don’t think about all those little things.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Please stop making Alien movies⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m with you on the covers analogy, but I feel the best covers take the source material and do something different with it to set it apart.

  I haven’t seen aliens Romulus yet myself, but it sounds like the ‘cover’ here doesn’t really stand out or do anything different to the original.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PSA: Libraries⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  One of the “protect our children” protests in the UK yesterday involved burning down a brand new library because…reasons, I guess?

  If you ever had any doubts about the right wing protests affecting the UK, remember they burned down a local community library for no fucking reason.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A "test" to judge Star Trek shows⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  TNG’s the inner light is one of its best episodes and it spectacularly fails this test.

  Wait, What’s this about corned beef? I am Irish (as in actually from Ireland) and I have no idea what that has to do with St Patrick’s day?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon reflects on e-sports⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s also worth pointing out that OLED’s solve many of the drawbacks of LCD’s, particularly around latency and response times.

  We just don’t talk about burn in.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Everyday, as an American⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  In the UK we’re mostly using metric with the odd exception (we still love a pint of beer), one of which is that speeds are measured in MPH. It’s not really a big deal, there aren’t many customers between miles and kilometres and anything less than a km is still usually measured in metres.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What happens when councils take control of buses?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m pretty sure Warrington’s bus service is owned by the council and it’s dire. Expensive, infrequent and the buses are old.

  It looks like the spaceport from Total Recall (the Arnie one).

  However, they usually own the house they live in, so don’t quite get sympathy from younger folks who are struggling just as much and can’t even get on the property ladder.

  (Yes there’s exceptions to both sides and would you believe it, the truth is somewhat more nuanced).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Star Trek: Lower Decks’ Cast Pitch Musical Episode And Another ‘Strange New Worlds’ Crossover⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  SNW has been an excellent show that I’ve greatly enjoyed, but each season has had one episode that stands out as being incredibly sub par.

  In season one, it was that weird fantasy one that felt like an attempt at doing a holodeck episode without the holodeck.

  In season two, it was the musical episode.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I tried so hard.⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is definitely not something specific to women at all. Men also love to neglect plants.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What a feeling that was⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Games have got a lot more expensive to make these days. It’s never laziness, it’s money. Everything is money. And it costs money to hold up a game release, but you had to back in the day because you had no choice. Now you do have a choice, because you can keep working on a game long after you send it for mastering and certification.

  Sure, you can argue that publishers should spend more money on testing and stop being “lazy” but that extra cost is getting passed on to you. It’s already obscene how expensive some games are to produce.

  I love this right up until the random rule gets applied, then it’s just frustrating.

  The article seems to suggest this film is part of the Kelvin line.

  It sounds more like they’ve consolidated build pipeline and this obfuscation is part of it.
