- Comment on Steam is basically a PC gaming monopoly, so why isn’t anyone mad? 1 day ago:
You can’t punch the oligarchs you feel are ruining your life so you lunch what is within reach and dress it up like that which you hate so you can justify it.
Plus the bulk of these articles are written about or for the AAA producers who are upset about their declining revenue and want an easy scapegoat for the investors.
Combine the 2 groups and you have grifting liars and the willing flock of idiots, and conversations like this.

Boredom. Thats the answer. You dont get to take a whole lot with you up there and you will be surprised what your brain does with the free time… Like decide to shoot a sitcom intro.

- Comment on Space Honey 1 week ago:
Cause we have lots of places to do science with gravity, its nice to have a place to do science without it.
And hard to maintain the force without damaging the ship. We have small space stations and shuttles and they would need to rotate really fast to generate gravity similar to earth and that is taxing on the structure and you since your feet would have a lot more gravity than your head closer to the center of the circle.If you have seen project hail Mary that is why there is an extendable counter weight actually. It helps move the central point of the rotation further away from the astronaut and let’s it rotate slower and have more consistent force.

- Comment on Does anyone actually have a plan after Trump and clean up? Try as he might he's not in there forever. Can we be allies again with old ones while trying to stregthen ties with new one? 1 week ago:
First of all, I think none of us here have a true say about global partnerships with the US. That is gonna be a long complicated mess that is bound to be very loose agreements at best with no real structure behind it anymore. As such that people will talk about the UN like they talk about the League of Nations.
Also, we all want to agree on what is bad but we still don’t seem to have any idea of what “Good” is. No one is running on it. No one is pushing for good things, no one is changing. We see leaders everywhere pushing for everything to stay the same or to “get rid of the bad” as if that is a thing that can be done.
Until we actually all get better, this is just a slow dumb saunter into hell.

Or do as I do and buy random games for cheap. I’m on like hour 4 of Tim-Tim 2; The Almighty Gnome, that I got for like 50 cents.
Honestly a pretty good time.

The wealthy have become very easy to sell to. Disposable cash they dont think about and a tailored algorithm and wide variety of available designer drugs.
Do some ketamine, go on an amazon binge and book a holiday to Greece to see a band you barely like cause fuck it, world is burning and I want a good time.
Honestly we just need to move on and start doing our own things and try to get into a place of power to maybe shore up some of the wealth hoarding.

So lots of older stuff does, SciFi had that all over the place, Tomorrowland and Mr, nobody and all that.
I am upset cause I have been trying to find the most recent one I saw and can’t place it. Some streaming movie that had the main character leading a group of people to fix up the city and it was like they had literally done pickup shots in an empty studio and it was just played as being a few years in the future.
Also see doctor who.

Can I say?
Every fucking movie that ends with a “utopia” where everyone is just smiling in a white void of a room with no color or joy to it? Makes me feel very much like that isn’t a utopia and just shows how unimaginative the people we let tell us how the world should be are. - Comment on The way this egg peels in infuriating 2 weeks ago:
Most people respond to tell you how very wrong you are
Oh, how very wrong you are.
- Comment on The way this egg peels in infuriating 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, the best peeling trick I know is a mason jar with a little water in it and you just shake the egg around like a bartender with a sleeping child next to them.
Riskier with soft boiled eggs though.

Sure, but you need someone who is inspired by it to have played it to be so. Dont get me wrong I also agree with things existing for the sake of it but thats also up to someone inspired enough.
I think its on the individual to not be responsible to spread themselves out but to actually interact with their niche and keep it alive, I want the games I engage with to be engaged with so that its felt.
I dont think art needs my support as much as people do.

I just type random words into the search bar and see what comes back, the mystery key bundles gave me frog detective 1 to many times.
But now I’m playing a fun gnome game so I am pretty happy with my method.

The problem is “passive”. Its not helpful to a game developer to not play their games cause then no one engages with their art. I wouldnt want to pay for a musician I dont listen to.
We do need a way to discover stuff easier. That was one of the joys of the early internet compared to now. But if you want to support indie devs, follow them or find smaller stuff and support it. Ignore the algorithms, decide what you want and look for it. Life isn’t passive.

We have gotten so bloated and lazy.
Some rich idiot who has never heard of limits buys in and then says who needs optimization, everyone has all the resources they do, dont they? And if thy dont they should buy in so that more money is spent.Finite is such an impossible thought for some people the same way infinite is.

I noticed this year that none of the VR games were on sale on steam during the Spring sale, like they were just ignored entirely.
I do think VR is back to dead for a while. Hit sweaty goggles that make a third of people sick just aint it.
