- Comment on It just hits different now 3 days ago:
Sometimes thats the case and sometimes it was just prepped wrong (e.g. boiling instead of cooking in a oven) or has gotten legit better.
- Comment on I would still download a car if I could. 🚗 4 days ago:
The technicality argument always rubbed me the wrong way. Like the guys who are into jailbait and say they aren’t pedophiles because pedophilia is for under ten year olds and they want to fuck teenagers. Brother you still want to fuck underage folks.
Same generally with piracy. Saying it’s not theft because there’s no physical deprivation of goods just sounds deluded. It’s still taking stuff without paying for it. Who are you trying to fool? Are you hoping someone is gonna read that nonsense and say, “Oh shit hes right guess we gotta get rid of copyright law now”? And would you want them to in the day and age of AI stealing everything?
I’m not even really trying to scold folks who pirate, I do it too, I just don’t bother to grandstand about it. BFD I’m pirating 30 year old video games. Y’all think if I bought a 200 dollar used one on Ebay the original studio sees a dime of it? C’mon now.

By definition it cannot.
- Comment on Too many non-working holidays in America. 2 weeks ago:
bring back the 168 hour workweek
- Comment on no way right 2 weeks ago:
Arguable for his time under Ares, but the freedom fighter and terrorist line gets blurry when fighting a regime and he’s fought two, Greek and Norse.

You can’t logic someone out of something they didn’t logic themselves into, and they definitely got emotionally attached to antivax before they found “statistics” to back shit up.
- Comment on Switch 2 Teardown: Still Glued, Still Soldered, Still Drifting 3 weeks ago:
Shoulda used the magnets for hall effect sticks rather then clacking joycons on the thing
- Comment on You can now search for Steam games by adjustable difficulty, mouse-only options and other accessibility tags 3 weeks ago:
Adjustable difficulty is accessibility? Maybe what I’m thinking isn’t what it is. Anyone know if it means stuff like easy/medium/hard or the more granular stuff like “Turn off QTE’s”?
Either way nice to see Steam making this stuff available and easy for devs.
- Comment on How do you keep track of what games you have played over the years? 4 weeks ago:
On Steam I have categories for played, unplayed, playing, and never touching again. Works well, but that backlog is brutal.

- Comment on Had a take about Supergiant Games that recieved a lot of pushback fromy teo longest eunning best friends. 5 weeks ago:
Hades did straight numbers, not a shocker they’d go for another. Couldn’t see Transistor or Bastion getting sequels, (Or Pyre but… lol Pyre.) and more importantly, I’d rather they tell new stories.
- Comment on ‘King of the Hill’ Revival First Details: Hank and Peggy Are Retired, Bobby’s a Dallas Chef, Dale Was Briefly Arlen’s Mayor and More 5 weeks ago:
The newer Beavis and Butthead’s were alright but not amazing. Of course it was also decades since I watched the originals, so maybe I changed too. To that end I don’t expect new KotH to blow my socks off.
- Comment on ‘King of the Hill’ Revival First Details: Hank and Peggy Are Retired, Bobby’s a Dallas Chef, Dale Was Briefly Arlen’s Mayor and More 5 weeks ago:
Beavis and Butthead had flash forwards in their recent series where they were adults and also ones where they were elderly.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
One has to imagine a future where one of sevetal things happen. Two possibilities come to mind.
- The government somehow bans beef, chicken, turkey, etc. This, I can’t stress this enough, will not happen. The backlash would be massive and leaders would be out on their ass swiftly and the decree reversed.
- Climate change and animal flus render meat so expensive that it escapes affordability for the average man More catastrophic, but also more likely. IMO average folks go largely vegan at that point, meat becomes a special occasion thing for them.

- Comment on Antony Starr had to knock down 'The Boys' fans glorifying Homelander: 'This guy is not the hero' 1 month ago:
Funnily enough, there was a multiverse thing called 2099 with a bunch of characters in it but like cyberfuture or whatever, had Spiderman 2099, Hulk 2099, and Punisher 2099, among others. Punisher 2099 kills (and tortures) criminals, absolutely refuses to fire on cops, and when Doom 2099 takes over the country, becomes his flunky and starts using thought crime devices.

- Comment on Alexander Skarsgård says he 'fell in love' with his rogue android in 'Murderbot' 1 month ago:
Any of us could be Murderbot really, gotta imagine most of us hate their job and only does it out of obligation, and would rather watch <preferred streaming service> all day if they could.
- Comment on Day 310 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games l've been playing 1 month ago:
Was never keen on Phantom Hourglass or Spirit Tracks because of the control schemes… loved Okami’s brush though, go fig.

- Comment on Players Have Too Many Options to Spend $80 on a Video Game 2 months ago:
I have 170 games in my backlog and the summer sale is coming. I ain’t spending 80 bucks on one video game.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
Stacy’s mom had it going on in the early 2000’s IIRC so not like the DILF and MILF thing hasn’t existed for a while. Though obviously it wasn’t a school promoting that.
- Comment on Jennifer Lawrence was quoted implying that The Hunger Games was the first female-led action movie ... today I want to introduce you to one of my favorite exceptions: The Long Kiss Goodnight. 2 months ago:
Other female led action movies that came out in 2012 include- Brave, Underworld: Awakening, Resident Evil: Retribution, Silent Hill: Revelations… but I feel like I’m belaboring the point that many others have made by now.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey would like to ‘delete all IP law’. 2 months ago:
Jack Dorsey, who owns dozens of patents, conveniently does not opt to lead the charge by cancelling them all.

i’m sure you’ve slayed so much puss with your massive meat rod please tell anonymous internet people more about your triumphs slamming clam.
- Comment on Ubisoft says you "cannot complain" it shut down The Crew because you never actually owned it, and you weren't "deceived" by the lack of an offline version 2 months ago:
If I never actually owned a Ubisoft game that logically pirating them isn’t theft right? Right?
- Comment on So this is it, is trump god? Will Republicans sacrifice their own well being to own the libs? 2 months ago:
Conservatives will shit their pants if it means liberals are grossed out by the smell.
- Comment on Hardwood is basketball's longtime foundation. A German company would love to change that to glass 3 months ago:
Oh yeah, history is rife with attempts to change flooring on sports that didn’t pan out, like Carpet Court or Blue Clay in tennis. For basketball, I walked on a Nike Grind court (Well, not 100% if was Nike Grind per se, but they said it was made out of recycled shoes so…) that they have at their Beaverton campus and the cushioning felt fairly noticeable.
