They could always use a poster…
- Comment on On Black Holes... 16 hours ago:
To be fair even our attempts at describing a technically possible but implausably simple version of a blackhole are essentially educated speculation. Although worth noting that black hole like objects did appear in fiction before they were discovered IRL.
- Comment on Meat from EU set to be cheaper as UK axes new border checks in Brexit reset 1 day ago:
Congratulations to the meat sellers on their new increase in profit margins.
- Comment on VW introduces monthly subscription to increase car power 2 days ago:
And cybernetics that won’t play adds in your brain until you have a seizure!. Seriously settings like cyberpunk and shadowrun are starting to look good by the standards of what we’re heading for. (Shadowrun is also old enough that you could actually just barely survive on a part time job without sharing an appartment even in the dystopia)
- Comment on VW introduces monthly subscription to increase car power 2 days ago:
For $1000 you could get a small furnace for cintering, a regular 3D printer and some of that special PLA that has metal powder in it that you can print and then cinter into a solid metal piece (The PLA bakes off) and just make the fucking thing yourself.

You could probably gradually get it moving across the surface fast enough to escape though.
- Comment on Game prices should have increased with every new generation, former PlayStation US boss says 4 days ago:
Don’t forget the game development is increasingly shoving the hardware burden onto the consumer by using poorly made tools to streamline development with garbage optimization which is why a gaming rig now has to be powerful enough to simulate a gaming rig from 10 years ago down to the atomic level but the graphics haven’t gotten appreciably better.

This is why you just shoot the fucker and don’t try and do a one liner.
- Comment on Overheated homes: why UK housing is dangerously unprepared for impact of climate crisis 1 week ago:
it feels like such an obvious regulation, any unused roof space should by law have one of the following:
- Heat reflective paint (This is mostly there for particularly fragile roof structures or people who can’t afford the others)
- Solar pannels
- Artifical meadow
- Comment on what are in you're top 3 favourite games of all time? 1 week ago:

- Comment on Off topic 3 weeks ago:
Yeh you can watch at lower volume with subtitles because even if you don’t conciously look at them it still helps your brain interpret the sounds and make up for anything you miss due to the reduced volume.
- Comment on Everything is a problem 3 weeks ago:
I have this smart lightbulb that I got for halloween last year because I thought it’d be cool to make the porch glow purple for trick or treaters. Now I have to replace it because the app that controls it has decided to try and blackmail me for camera and location access and the bulbs default state without the app is to flash on and off in a way seemingly deliberately designed to cause headaches.
- Comment on UK announces £30 million funding package and tax breaks as it aims to be the 'best place in the world to make games' 3 weeks ago:
Consdiering the PPE, the Ferries, HS2… Spending immense amounts of money on projects that never get finished seems to perfectly align with british culture.
- Comment on How come nobody does anything about North Korea? 4 weeks ago:
I’m not saying its a good reason, just a reason. We could easily afford it if we took some of that magic money that goes into military funding blackholes or magical infastructure projects that never get built yet somehow break records on cost. Sadly the decision is being made by people with no sense of empathy or value for human life.
- Comment on How come nobody does anything about North Korea? 4 weeks ago:
iirc one of the issues is that even if things go perfectly on a military front no one is quite sure how to handle and de-program/rehabilitate 25.5 million people a large quantity of which likely lack any skills that would be useful in western economies.
- Comment on EA reportedly shelves Need For Speed completely to focus on other projects 5 weeks ago:
I honestly found heats handling atrocious compared to underground, even the grippiest heat care only just barely approaches the feel.
- Comment on Jeremy Corbyn confirms new ‘socialist alternative’ before next election to fight Starmer 5 weeks ago:
Except Starmer is considered a huge dissapointment and no better than a Tory at this point.
- Comment on Ubisoft EULA demanding consumers destroy delisted games adds fuel to Stop Killing Games movement 5 weeks ago:
afaik both are unenforceable since you can only read them after paying for the product.
- Comment on Welcome to the Labour police state 1 month ago:
Which is the point, the last time the UK protested in a big way people were brutall masacred by the government.
- Comment on So if we're just good with careening into fascism 2.0 what does the future look like? 1 month ago:
It always amazes me how radical leftism keeps moving further right. Once upon a time radical leftism meant UBI and immediate radical action on climat change. Now ‘radicall’ leftism is anything left of squads of armed men kidnapping people off the street.
- Comment on Cursed 1 month ago:
Visual proofs can be deceptive, e.g. the infinite chocolate bar.
- Comment on Signatures skyrocket for Stop Killing Games campaign after big youtubers take up the cause, resulting in 100k signatures in 2 days. (Details on how to help in text body of post) 1 month ago:
Signed.
- Comment on The Outer Worlds 2 Can't Be Anti-Capitalist When It's Charging Us $80 To Play It 2 months ago:
Chance as in gambling, so often you don’t even get what you pay for even with ‘reputable’ brands. This is particularly bad with appliances.
- Comment on Newsom Says Trump Is Destroying U.S. Democracy in Speech on L.A. Protests 2 months ago:
Humans don’t co-ordinate well in groups with more than 50 members, having a central figure to follow is useful for maintaining co-ordination and a clear message.
- Comment on The Outer Worlds 2 Can't Be Anti-Capitalist When It's Charging Us $80 To Play It 2 months ago:
These days its incresingly ‘capitalism is when you pay money for the chance to have a thing’
- Comment on The first weekly What Are You Playing? thread! 2 months ago:
Bit of warframe, a lot of deeprock and some stellaris when I have that much free time.
- Comment on Anon learns happiness is simpler than he thought 2 months ago:
Isn’t it more just appreciating the small joys in life? If thats complicated enough that it has to be a whole philosiphy then I think we’re fucked as a species.
- Comment on Anyone else 2 months ago:
Nothing material on earth you can’t find everywhere else, the only things we have that aren’t incredibly plentiful elsewhere are earths unique biology and human culture. Both of which can also be obtained without us ever knowing about it. The only logical reason to invade is ideological so if we ever meet hostile aliens they’re either genocidal zealots or a bunch of sadists.
- Comment on Cyberpunk 2 is now in preproduction, CD Projekt says 2 months ago:
TLDR: UE5 can be optimized but Unreal also turned it into a bit of a tech demo for their new tech some of which can be counter productive at times.
- Comment on Anon reflects on a conundrum 2 months ago:
Helps if you angle the camera down slightly, actually funny story about AI… There was this site a few years ago that would give you a masculine/femanine score based on a selfie, I discovered all it was really checking was the angle of the face because men tend to take photos straight on and women know to take the photo with your face at an angle. (But NEVER an upward angle)
