- Comment on What is the most "Indie Feeling" game that is definitely NOT from an Indie Studio? 27 minutes ago:
Ori and the Blind Forest/Will of the Wisps?
Made by a smaller studio but published by Microsoft
- Comment on Amy Poehler, Mike Schur Reunite for Peacock Comedy ‘Dig’ 1 day ago:
Michael Schur is keeping busy though. I’ve been following most of his stuff and it’s all pretty similar. Which is good. I like the work he does with Justin Spitzer as well.
- Comment on Liquid Trees 4 days ago:
Green shit on your terrace, leaves fucking everywhere, looming threat of bird shit on your head, seeds everywhere, roots growing through everything, blocking the sun at every step, tough lessons in gravity for things kids climbing them, lot of damage when it’s stormy out.
But nah trees are great, really.
- Comment on Half Life 3 5 days ago:
Yeah they did. But at this point Half Life 3 has a mythical status they will never be able to measure up to.
- Comment on Half Life 3 5 days ago:
Considering every Half Life showcased Valve’s new tech in the Freeman narrative, one could argue Alyx was our Half Life 3. It had everything: the signature storyline, new gameplay, new tech. What more are we expecting from Half Life 3?
- Comment on Pam Bondi claims Donald Trump has saved 75% of American lives in first 100 days 1 week ago:
Clearly 75% of Americans have no control if it comes to fentantyl. No matter the quantity that arrives anywhere, it’s like bees to honey with these people. They eat it, brush their teeth with it, stick it up places where the sun don’t shine…
It’s basically a miracle they’ve lasted this long without Trump.
/s just in case.

It’s called AI vs Arjen but it’s not always about lying. The first one was taking a picture, the second one was lying and the third one was creating a recipe from ingredients in a fridge.
- Comment on Juan 👍 1 week ago:
There is a Dutch talkshow host who takes on AI in some tasks every now and then and he matched up with ChatGPT to see who was a better lier. They tried to convince one half of a twin that the Eiffel Tower was made of a sort of Dutch spiced cake.

- Comment on What's the point in getting married? 1 week ago:
In the Netherlands, if you don’t have a will, it all goes to the spouse.
- Comment on What's the point in getting married? 1 week ago:
This was Meppel but every municipality in the Netherlands has a free marriage half hour. It varies what day it is but it’ll usually be early morning.
- Comment on What's the point in getting married? 1 week ago:
We have the option. If you get married you can get married in ‘(beperkte) gemeenschap van goederen’, which means ‘what’s mine is yours’. Caveat is that anything you owned before you got married will not be taken into account.
Then there’s ‘huwelijkse voorwaarden’ which means ‘what’s mine is mine’.
- Comment on What's the point in getting married? 1 week ago:
I didn’t get married for the love or the religious reasons, it’s just way easier when you buy a house together. Now, if I die, all my stuff automatically belongs to my wife.
- Comment on The Crew 2: Offline Mode Update 1 week ago:
The case by noyb referenced single player games. Stuff like session start, duration et cetera was being tracked.
I was one of the people that signed the SKG initiative after The Crew was taken offline. Not because I loved the game so much but it’s the principle. I payed for it and should still be able to play it.
- Comment on The Crew 2: Offline Mode Update 1 week ago:
On the same day noyb files a complaint including an accusation that in just 10 minutes, a single player game called to the servers 150 times
- Comment on Nintendo apologizes as Switch 2 demand overwhelms supply in Japan 2 weeks ago:
As long as Nintendo exclusive games are well-developed, they can easily get away with this. Especially since they squash any ‘competition’ (read: emulators).
And yeah, most likely Nvidia will take the hits for any supply chain issues, which may run back to TSMC and ASML in due time.
- Comment on Nintendo apologizes as Switch 2 demand overwhelms supply in Japan 2 weeks ago:
This message gives me several thoughts.
- A company like Nintendo easily has the means to predict demand more accurately;
- Chip production will be stained to meet high demand;
- Saying it’s in high demand will drive up demand, now that people will see it isn’t available and everyone in Japan seems to want one;
- After the launch, some were skeptical about the console. I wonder if this is an action taken to mitigate lower sales.
All in all, this ‘apology’ seems more like corporate strategy than anything sincere.

- Comment on What's a good feel good film I can watch next week? 3 weeks ago:
Might I recommend the tv show ‘A Man on the Inside’?
- Comment on BACK OFF FELLAS, SHE'S MINE 4 weeks ago:
Ah yes, ‘the’ parking lot. I’ll definitely be there and if you don’t see me you’re at the wrong one.
- Comment on BACK OFF FELLAS, SHE'S MINE 4 weeks ago:
I got it from the same user around the same time. She must’ve sent it to you by mistake.
- Comment on Thoughts on Mario Kart World 5 weeks ago:
It has some gimmicks that I don’t think will stand the test of time, but mostly I think it’ll be like 8 with some tweaks. It’ll be fine, I think.
- Comment on What TV series suffered by introducing an unnecessary romance between characters? And in the reverse, are there any TV series that suffered by NOT introducing a romance between two characters? 5 weeks ago:
Yeah saw the first season, didn’t bother with S2 yet
- Comment on What TV series suffered by introducing an unnecessary romance between characters? And in the reverse, are there any TV series that suffered by NOT introducing a romance between two characters? 5 weeks ago:
The Night Agent. It was a proper good show until out of nowhere they started eating each other’s face. Completely unnecessary and it made the second season way more predictable.

Did you think we didn’t have 2011 or Chevrolets in Europa
- Comment on Hehe 1 month ago:
Yeah my point was more the engine size. The EcoTec in my 2001 Corsa was half its size. A 2.4 litre engine would be a high performance vehicle in Europe.
- Comment on Hehe 1 month ago:
2.4 EcoTec. Tell me it’s American without telling me it’s American.
