- Comment on Why aren't there many controllers with the ability to physically swap out the ABXY layout between Xbox/PC and Nintendo layout? 2 weeks ago:
That’s right, circle was accept because drawing a circle in Japanese is their equivalent to a tick, x is cancel like a cross, I think the square was supposed to look like a piece of paper, I can’t remember what the triangle symbolised.

I think it’s proven fact that things often sell off of the art and IP, sometimes for those alone. If that wasn’t the case they wouldn’t fight so hard to protect it.

Actually that was from Das Jesus Video (aka The Hunt for the Hidden Relic)
- Comment on Scifi question about time travel: 1 month ago:
I don’t think you’ve thought through your question. The machine was open in both time periods. The machine was turned off after the information was given. There’s nothing more to happen.
I get what you’re trying to say, but it doesn’t really apply to the scenario you are describing.
I saw a better version of what you are attempting to present: a scientist has a button that transports an object back in time by 5 seconds. An apple is tested successfully, it appears 5 seconds before he pushes the button and when he pushes the button the original disappears. They try it with a live mouse but something goes wrong; when it appears it’s horribly disfigured and this scares the scientist who pulls away from pushing the button. The mouse has already appeared but he will not press the button. Now what happens?
- Comment on The signatures are still coming and it's already making an impact 1 month ago:
This is the most level headed approach to IP I’ve seen. If you’re not willing to use the property you forfeit it. It’s a common contact for licensing rights for movies that forces a studio to make a movie or lose rights. That way people can’t squat on a licence to prevent others using it.

Tactics is getting more of a remaster than a remake. It’s also missing a bunch of content that was added in the PSP version. Honestly I don’t think it will sell terribly well.

I think the joke of the ghost costume as a white sheet has been lost.

- Comment on What's a TV series you've tried repeatedly to get into, but can't? 2 months ago:
I had to do it twice. The first season sucks. Could have been done in 2 episodes. The rest of the show is a lot better and I’m glad I powered through the first season.

It reminds me of the joke in Curb Your Enthusiasm about ?Muslims? having sex by cutting a hole in a bed sheet.

- Comment on Morpheus Actor Laurence Fishburne Reveals He Was Turned Down for The Matrix Resurrections — So He Might Not Be Back for Matrix 5 Either - IGN 4 months ago:
Fishburne was very diplomatic when asked for his opinion on the finished Matrix 4: “it was better than I expected, but not as good as I had hoped”.
Hugo weaving, the actor for Smith, didn’t appear in the film due to alleged scheduling conflicts, but I suspect he took a look at the script and noped out of it.
It’s a shame, it could’ve been good.

No, it is imperative that they keep retreading the existing formula and include lots of call backs that fans will remember /s

- Comment on Blobfish 5 months ago:
“stop depicting blobfish like this, and blobfish isn’t what it’s called”
That specific one, as depicted, is blobfish. Blobfish is not a species, it’s an individual. Like Greenboots.

I think a length of wire is more about being a vague measurement and to distinguish it from a wire coil, which is a separately useful thing in electronics.
Calling things a length isn’t indicative of being short. Terms like a length of rope and length of wire are fairly normal ways to talk about things without a strict measurement.
