I honestly thing the absolute buginess and crazy run and gun play style of the battlefield games of the past keeps me as a better player than new players who insist on trying to fight like it is a real war simulator. Grenade launchers and beating people with the melee still work.
- Comment on Many Top MAGA Trolls Aren’t Even in the U.S - Elon Musk’s new X feature has been very revealing. 1 day ago:
Americans knew who he was, witnessed the same January 6th I did, and elected to restore that guy to office
He’s just so passionate! Him and his followers were just upset he lost because he was doing so good, and he gave up eventually. Don’t you want a passionate president rather than a sleepy one? Plus he will be hard on all the immigrants who must be responsible for me struggling to find a job and he will negotiate prices down, haven’t you heard? He’s a good negotiator he has a whole book and everything. Has to be better than Biden and his random girl telling me that everything is fine and they won’t do anything to help me.
I get being in disbelief, and being upset but people don’t know what they don’t know and it isn’t that shocking to see how they came to the conclusions that it HAD to be better.
Humans, while very clever, are emotionally dumb as fuck. - Comment on How Google’s DeepMind tool is ‘more quickly’ forecasting hurricane behavior 6 days ago:
Its fun that they admit that they don’t know the math behind why it picks the paths it does.
We are essentially having to learn our world all over again and these tools that can recognize patterns are gonna be helpful for that but it will still be on humans to figure out the why
- Comment on You should quit social media for good 1 week ago:
That is pretty obvious, what’s really wild about this blog post and proof that we need off social media was that AI generated Gavin Newsom post with Ted Cruz and Hulk Hogan.

The Olive Garden app, cause when you are on it, you are family.
But no, I disagree that we’d have all come together and just solved everything with a different “central” app. Though I guess a government version of Twitter where everyone gets a login and every company has to have a support arm for making announcements and allowing the government to make them too would be helpful like it was and still sometimes is.

Dude, peole have been using that on 4chan since 2015 or earlier to tell people that they were out of touch with current affairs or the state of the world. Wasn’t aimed like that.
Making up your own history to throw hate is such a boomer thing to do.

Its so old the references go right past them but give them something to look up if they want to feel like they know something others their age dont, and if not you just enjoy the funny scenes and the funny movie that has actual humor instead of “well that just happened” quips.

The last person that i explained the constant cycle of human nature to rise out of spite and fall due to hubris to said,
“Im glad you told me that, cause its really interesting, but i dont know what to do now that i know that.” - Comment on Truly 1 month ago:
Ha yeah but profits must only go up so all the casinos would just pivot to something else. Sociopaths would never accept a 10% margin even on that large of a pool of money. Thats restaurant margin territory and you dont see the mafia running many legitimate restaurants for the income.

Gotta get the money from the poors somehow, and someone with skill might win it back if its allowed to be skill based.
- Comment on Truly 1 month ago:
Imagine you are a boomer who has had a near infinite money glitch but its only ever been cost of living plus 10%. You always have that spare cash but it doesnt get above 10% extra. Its a boring amount and you want to be actually rich.
Now you could squirrel it away and actually save that money but thats boring when what you could do is gamble it every month cause maybe it will make you have a huge amount of money (which it wont) out of just pure luck and you didnt need it cause your basic costs were always covered so you never thought of saving it or giving it to anyone else other than corpos.
Now add people who also know they wil never have the money glitch who want to be as secure and see boomers making a small return acting like it was worth it and they decide if they gamble the few dollars they have they will finally get a return that saves them from poverty (it wont).
Congrats you now understand it hopefully.

So i dont see Sonic Racing mentioned much.
Its one of the other things i use to relax after Silk Song and i find it really interesting. Its not a clone of mario kart in that each car legit feels like it drives differently. And you have to play smart but can also play wildly because of the insane items and shortcuts.
I think it reminds me of Gran Turismo but with mario kart items. And Sonic music. I dont know if i just wanted something different and i am giving it more credit.

I have been procrastinating and exploring every nook and cranny of that world. Its amazing how much it feels real and lived in. Like they have the whole thing figured out down to why some screws are more rusted than others.
I am so reluctant to start act 3 cause i already struggled with the first funeral. Its gonna break me i just know it.
- Comment on Travel back to the days of cable TV with Blippo+, a time-hopping FMV game about... I'm not entirely sure, actually 1 month ago:
It was originally aired weekly on a schedule like real TV for that gameboy with a crank looking console, Playdate.
That console constantly feels like arts thesis projects.

Yeah, kind of exactly the nightmare of a “writing system”. Its a dare to try to explain it in less than 10 words.

Nope. There is an overarching story happening if you want to pay attention but they just recorded a bunch of absurdist content and charge you to watch it in their own software.
Its like a streaming platform where you literally have to watch the previous episode to get the next.
- Comment on Travel back to the days of cable TV with Blippo+, a time-hopping FMV game about... I'm not entirely sure, actually 1 month ago:
Its about watching FMVs made by the team that made Thank Goodness you’re Here.
Essentially you are paying a one time fee to the weirdest streaming platform ever.
- Comment on How much grams? 1 month ago:
Terrifying enough it is both. You measure in grams as a fraction of ounces until you get to an ounce and then you measure in those until you get to pounds unless its so much that you move back to kilograms.
Joint = 1 gram
1/8th = 3.5 grams
1/2 = 14 grams - Comment on Real easy 1 month ago:
Try reading Japanese without kanji and see how rough it get with all the homophones.
They have 3 alphabets and its called a “writing system” because of it.

- Comment on Remember episodic gaming? Former Telltale devs are bringing it back for the release of Dispatch, and there's a chance it might work this time | Eurogamer 2 months ago:
Telltale games were just like that. Its episodes in that each section has an arc and usually a cliffhanger of an ending.
Its part marketing and part way to keep everyone interested and feeling like they get the story at the same time. Its meant to feel like TV where you had control of the story to some degree but it continues forward no matter what.

LOL.
Boomers complaining people are “turning left” cause their kid asked if Jesus really meant it when he said to feed the poor and treat others with human decency.
- Comment on I Got This Right, Right? 2 months ago:
Probably a libertarian. Non party affiliated has been growing as people arent into fascist Republicans vs fiscal conservative policy and they dont want to be a Democrat in those states.
I know we have this, you are one party of the other thing but i think the “others” is gonna get bigger as a group and already has.
