They’re called histrionic, and you would know that if you had read the book.

My guess is he’s getting downvoted for the snark, not for the factual content. English isn’t most people’s native language.

Have never seen the show, but from a quick search, that seems pretty spot on for what I had in mind.

Let’s just settle on Moon™ as a compromise for our moon and just moon for all other moons.

Would actually be fun to have an android character that tries to be less human. Like it’s an unfortunate happenstance that someone designed him to be human-like, and its primary goal is to purge this aspect of itself. Like an Uncle Tom character with deep-rooted anxieties and a machine supremacy complex. Come to think of it, this has to exist already, it doesn’t feel all that original, but I can’t point to where I would’ve seen that.

So what you’re saying is they not only faked the moon landing, they also kept these amazing computer graphics from us gamers all this time?
Truly monstrous.

Regarding truck nuts as gender-affirming surgery for cars is already being lenient. Everyone knows the gender affirmation is really for the owner and not for the car.
- Comment on Behold, "the whole story of Steam's economy in one picture": the top 1% of games earn 84.5% of estimated revenue, and most games barely make anything 3 weeks ago:
I think this is really where it’s at. If this article was supposed to criticize Steam, the criticism should be that they will need to do better QA to fend off the waves of crappy AI games that await in the future, and not an economic one that makes this sound some uneven distribution of wealth (which it really is not).

Don’t care about the rest, but this one stings a little. Thankfully, the originals are still fun to play.

Always some white guy in the comments going on about how white people doing white people things is not something worth mentioning.
- Comment on Painful to recover from 4 weeks ago:
Do you have any references for this? As far as I know the literature, the debate about “what matters more” is still ongoing with some research arguing in favor of personality and other research in favor of cognitive ability. This research seems to agree that the relationship between cognitive ability and life outcomes is generally positive, and I am not aware of any convincing evidence to the contrary.

The Knicks actually have quite a few celebrity fans who visit games regularly. Jon Stewart, Spike Lee, Ben Stiller, Alicia Keys, Michael J Fox, and Adam Sandler are a few I can think of who fit that category. Chalemet is a pretty big sports fan, too, including basketball.

- Comment on When they didn't read the manual 5 weeks ago:
This sometimes reminds me of the “invert Y-axis” for camera controls in video games, where someone’s preference can basically determined by the question “Are you old enough to have played the original MS Flight Simulator as a child?”.
Someone’s preference typically reflects their tactile experiences that they made with their hardware early on, and once something feels “right”, there’s usually no convincing them it’s not (and indeed no point to it). It’s an artificial thing you have to get used to, one way or another, and there’s really no right or wrong way to go about it.

Didn’t play The Last of Us until a few months before Part 2 came out. I went into them pretty much blind, and I’m really glad I got to experience them like that. Real masterpieces these games.
- Comment on Musk: Many British people are living in lovely small towns. They are just like Hobbits. Until one day, people show up and start raping their kids 1 month ago:
Not to mention the fact that the “hard men” were Saruman and the other fascists occupying the Shire, and the Hobbits chased them off by themselves without any help from the big folk. Hell, the only reason the “hard men” were able to get a foothold in the Shire was because the Sackville-Baggins were willingly collaborating with the fascist occupiers. Elon either hasn’t read the books or hasn’t understood what he was reading. Grade A moron that guy.
