- Comment on Or Library Genesis 3 weeks ago:
I don’t understand why you’re getting downvoted. You’re not wrong. Sci-Hub focuses on academic journal articles, which are a pretty novel phenomenon. The first journal was created in the 17th century, and journals didn’t become the primary medium for publications until well into the 19th century. I wouldn’t say academia is “biased” per se, but it’s true that the academic publishing business is heavily dominated by western companies.

I was going to comment that Library Genesis went offline earlier this year, but I’m very happy to see that I’m wrong and it seems to be back.

Imagine working in a retirement home and one day one if the residents tells yoz “I am taking part in this clinical trial” only to come back as Doctor fucking Octopus.
- Comment on Got a six-pack for me and the boys 4 weeks ago:
but i guess the 6 pack is the price of 5 cans?
That’s a standard method for hiding a price increase. You start with a pack of 6 priced at $5.99. You then run a “5+1” campaign advertising this special deal at just $5.49. Great value! Finally, you end the campaign and set the new price at $5.49 × (6/5) = $6.59. Doing it this way reduces profit for the duration of the campaign, but customers won’t be as angry as with a straight increase, because the actual increase in this method is the $5.49 for the 5+1, which doesn’t “feel” like an increase.

I recently replayed FFX and couldn’t agree more. Loved every second of it, and it’s still my favorite FF of all time.

Don’t forget Ennio Morricone and his musical genius. Many of the most iconic scores in Western films are his compositions.

Prepare to get hundreds of multiple-paragraph replies. If there’s one thing Germans love, then it’s telling non-Germans about Germany.

- Comment on Octopath Traveler 0 – Announcement Trailer 1 month ago:
I have not played 2 yet but plan to when I can catch a decent sale. From what I read, the writing is better and there also seem to be some QoL features might help with the pacing of the dialogue and cutscenes.
- Comment on Octopath Traveler 0 – Announcement Trailer 1 month ago:
No, I feel you. I did finish the game and enjoyed it overall, but the dialogue and writing was jarring. I’m not sure what exactly it was, but I was particularly annoyed by the writing being cliché lots of times and the dialogue in the cutscenes being soooo slow (overused animations, dramatic pauses in every sentence, …).

A mystery.
- Comment on Day 376 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 1 month ago:
Yeah, the vibe is different, but both are excellent in their own way. Part 2 is a more complex piece of story telling , and it does some things I had not expected from a game and that make it more (emotionally) challenging but also unique in terms of the experience. I personally found it really impressive.

I may be prejudiced, but whenever I see a journal that exclusively publishes case reports, I immediately think “paper mill”.

Your journey through Part 1 was really fun to read along. Do you plan on playing Part 2?
