Another confession?
- Comment on Let's talk...wait... No! Not like that! 3 days ago:
I didn’t accuse you of anything
Do you know what the word “accuse” means? You accused me of 7 things in this comment alone.
- Comment on Let's talk...wait... No! Not like that! 3 days ago:
What have I done that’s “unhinged”? Asked you a simple question?
This is an “every accusation is a confession” situation isn’t it?
- Comment on Let's talk...wait... No! Not like that! 3 days ago:
I’m unhinged? You’re the one complaining that there was no “real convo” and now you get all upset and aggressive when I ask a simple follow-up question to your statement. I thought you “knew what you are afraid of” but here you are immediately trying to deflect.
Are you afraid of direct answers and making clear statements?

I also know what I am afraid of
Okay, what specific chemicals are you afraid of?

- Comment on The new Hulu Subscriber agreement just dropped - Don't like ads too bad. 2 weeks ago:
There’s no way this should be a profitable course of action. If I was paying for no Ads and started getting Ads I would immediately cancel my subscription and go somewhere else.
Unfortunately too many people are good little consumers who just don’t care and it doesn’t even occur to them to stop paying and demand better.

If you can disrupt businesses enough then the oligarchs holding Trump’s leash will start telling him to behave.
- Comment on Gimme some evidence that anyone at all in the government is pushing back on Trump with any effectiveness at all. Someone throw me a bone here. 😬 3 weeks ago:
What exactly stops him from having these people forcibly removed and/or their access to government resources cut, their paychecks held, their clearances revoked, etc? Who is in charge of those things that can stand up to that?
Trump doesn’t directly do any of those things, he would have to order other people to do so, and the risk of doing so is that if he encounters more resistance people start to notice that the emperor has no clothes.
The more people resist the more it encourages others to do the same. The president is not a king that can dictate commands, and the more people stop obeying the more Trump runs into those protections that stop him being a tyrant.

Currently the consequence is they aren’t accepting the termination of their enjoyment and aren’t leaving.
If the consequence of not following the rules means it doesn’t get enforced then he cares very much.

“What is the overall compensation package?”
This should be discussed as part of salary expectations. In fact talking about the overall compensation is a recommendation to avoid giving a specific number when asked what salary range you are expecting. (“That depends on other compensation factors such as how much time off I get in a year and medical benefits coverage.”)
Doing this got me an extra $1000 a year as my starting salary at my previous job when their medical benefits were not as good as what I had at the time.

Toxic bosses need not post job offers. I would rather work at a McDonald’s…
Oh you sweet summer child…
As someone who spent too many years in fast food the bosses there are extremely toxic, largely due to the fact that it is one of the easiest places to find some nieve replacement for the person who doesn’t want to be on call 24/7 and work unpaid overtime.

- Comment on After shutting down several popular emulators, Nintendo admits emulation is legal 5 weeks ago:
Nintendo bad for making QoL console releases? Again, Nintendo is not the only company to do that. PS4/PS5 Pro, the recent Xboxes, etc
Nintendo has a history of doing something different each hardware generation: Snes had the 4 button + shoulder buttons controller. N64 controller was designed for someone with 3 hands, DS had 2 screens, 3DS had 3d without glasses, Wii had motion controls, Wii U the tablet controller, Switch is a console and portable… Every system had something that made it unique. What’s unique about the Switch 2?
Nintendo is not able to compete with other consoles on power, it’s the unique hardware that gives a reason to own it over something else.They’ve put basically zero effort into shutting down emulators for consoles they don’t sell anymore.
Technically correct. If they hear a whisper of a ROM for Mappy Land on the NES they have their lawyers on speed dial. ( Me typing that sentence means someone from Nintendo is now watching this thread to see if anyone links to a ROM.)

People have built wands that can teleport you to parallel worlds, and the developers did not intend for that to be possible.
Alright, this has convinced me to give Noita a shot.

Seconding Inscryption. Excellent game. Read nothing about it and explore it on your own.
- Comment on Any Roguelike/Roguelite suggestions? 5 weeks ago:
I’m thrilled that Into the Breach is available on Android, massively disappointed that I cannot purchase it. But at least that means patched APKs exist…
- Comment on Any Roguelike/Roguelite suggestions? 5 weeks ago:
A couple weirder Rogue-lite suggestions:
Against the Storm is a Rogue-lite City Builder, which sounds like 2 things that shouldn’t go together but works surprisingly well. It has a generous demo on Steam that lets you freely play up to level 6 or something in the standard biome, so give it a try
Shape-Hero Factory is a Rogue-lite Factory Builder. Another weird combination that is surprisingly effective. It’s in Early Access so there’s a lot of features that are still planned, but you can do full runs and go up to I think Ascension 6. It had a demo during nextfest, not sure if the demo is still there.

It’s possible to find APKs with the Netflix login patched out. I’ve been playing Into the Breach recently.

Maybe in your industry. The legal requirement is time and a half.
- Comment on Guy never bought a game on the Epic Store... Owns 200+ 1 month ago:
You don’t own anything on Epic either. Epic is actually significantly worse for people losing their accounts and having no way of recovering them.
If for some reason I lost access to my Stream account I would just pirate copies of the games I’ve already purchased.

“Fuck” can be translated to “disregard”: "Fuck that.’
- Comment on Behold currently! 1 month ago:
What is the entertainment from the meme? Is it that “Auto-translate did this”? Or is it “This is All Star as if it was a passage from the Bible”?
If it’s the latter (which I personally found amusing) then why are you getting your panties is a twist that it wasn’t a computer that did this?

It’s not just a matter of avoiding it, I have been signed up for prime on days I didn’t eve use Amazon. The system will sign you up on its own.
