That is literally what they’re doing.
- Comment on My ravioli bowl won't unstick. Took about an hour of prying, and still I couldn't unstick the plate. 2 months ago:
No one is going to mention that OP has a bowl specifically for ravioli?
- Comment on Plex ending support for Watch Together 3 months ago:
By “know what you’re doing” I mean “understand the consequences”. Anyone can follow a guide that tells them how to open a port on their router. Understanding that in doing so they’re potentially allowing every malicious actor into their home network is not so straightforward.
- Comment on Plex ending support for Watch Together 3 months ago:
This should not be downvoted. You should not expose anything straight to the internet unless you know what you’re doing. Use a simple service like Tailscale to create a locally accessible VPN.
- Comment on Is anyone else playing Avowed? What are your thoughts so far? 3 months ago:
I think it’s great. The maps may be smaller than some other open world RPGs but it is packed with content. The voice acting is great, I don’t know what the hell people here are talking about. Graphics are good enough although the facial animations are pretty wooden and stilted.

id software made Quake. They have not renamed themselves Atari. Whatchu talking about.

They’re literally remaking HoMM 3 now.

- Comment on Steam Deck officially comes to Australia in November 8 months ago:
About time! Although now I’m left wondering how long until the Deck 2 comes arrives and whether I’d be better off waiting.
- Comment on 14 films that embarassed the blockbusters by making millions off tiny budgets 8 months ago:
Clerks was made for $37k, including Kevin Smith maxing out his parents credit cards, and earned $4.4M.
- Comment on Fallout TV Show ... not vibing with eps 1,2 ... what am I missing? 9 months ago:
“I loved Brokeback Mountain but find these John Wayne movies not to my taste”
Sounds like you like the setting - post apocalyptic - not necessarily the premise. Fallout is about the offbeat humour and violence. Silo is completely different (I loved Silo too).
I know pllllllllenty of people who don’t like Andor. They found it either “too Star Wars-y” or “not Star Wars-y enough”.
The world would be a boring place if we all liked the same things.
- Comment on Why is it a common insult for someone to say they slept with your mom? 11 months ago:
If this were the case then “I fucked your dad” would be just as common an insult, with all the same connotations.
- Comment on Does different parts of the world use different standards for water pressure similar to voltages? 11 months ago:
Australia uses kilopascals rather than PSI. Our standard is 500kPa which works out at around 72 PSI.
- Comment on New Indiana Jones And The Great Circle trailer shows snow nazis making train noises and not much else 1 year ago:
Dumb article title. I thought the trailer also showed some pretty tight writing that nails the Indiana Jones vibe pretty damn well.
- Comment on PlayStation 5 Generation Is Already Sony's Most Profitable Yet 1 year ago:
“Megacorp siphons more money from customers to fuel never ending hunger for profit!”
- Comment on Glorious Victory 1 year ago:
They are just being clear and accurate with their comms. No need to over think it.
- Comment on Glorious Victory 1 year ago:
I can’t tell if you’re being downvoted by dorks who don’t realise you’re joking or by dorks who DO realise you’re joking and feel attacked. Either way, sad, silly down voters.

I’m in the southern hemisphere. The entire planet earth was in my way. :-)
- Comment on Anyone else travel to see the eclipse just to have clouds come in right before totality? 1 year ago:
I had an entire planet in my way, didn’t see a damn thing.

“Gorgeous“?!
- Comment on 3 days 🤯 1 year ago:
A 12m stainless steel pedestrian bridge that took 6 years to make and was subsequently “strengthened” to meet safety requirements. Not quite the same thing.
- Comment on Dragon's Dogma 2 MTX 1 year ago:
The whole thing is a storm in a teacup. I’m level 40 in the game and have not once felt the need to even LOOK at the MTX store. The game is complete; the MTX are there if you’re too lazy to be bothered using the in-game travel mechanics. Simple as that.
- Comment on Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom devs explain why it was a much bigger overhaul than you'd think 1 year ago:
The stories in most Nintendo games are weak and mostly pointless. I loved BOTW but strrrrrrrruggled to enjoy TOTK. It just felt too gimmicky. And I adore RDR2, story and gameplay.
- Comment on Introducing Community Game Help, a new enhancement for Game Help powered by user-generated content 1 year ago:
If good quality game help doesn’t get used much why on earth would low quality game help jammed full of “funny” advice and memes be better?
- Comment on Era of complex and ambitious TV is over, says Sopranos creator 1 year ago:
Yeah this smells a lot like “old man angry things aren’t the same any more”.
- Comment on Get ready to hear more about "pre-internet" times 1 year ago:
You’d read the labels of whatever the hell was within reach. Shampoo bottle, toilet cleaner bottle, soap, whatever.
- Comment on Get ready to hear more about "pre-internet" times 1 year ago:
I wish. The DJ would always talk over the start of the songs, and then start jabbering again before it ended.
