Also, cinema was invented by the French. Kind of cool IMO.
And then reinvented (with the Nouvelle Vague that went against “the Hollywood way” and largely contributed to revitalizing the entire industry)

Wtf, I know how obnoxious stoners can be, but have these ladies even met a cigar snob ? They’re worse, and it smells worse too !

Sorry but you just activated my pedant mode…
adjusts glasses anime style um akshually, that is the definition of an acronym, otherwise it is just an initialism.

rarely if ever contained a face or a feeling
We even added "> mfw I have no face" to address that if we felt particularly quirky !

True, but I don’t think many of them would say that to your face (including musk who I assume would pretend to be neolib, who do kind of have a hate boner for basic research, at least in my country)
- Comment on STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl Potentially Banned in Russia Due To Potential 'Justifying Terrorism' 5 days ago:
Will do. I’m basically one decent trailer away from impulse buying it anyway. As a fellow game developer, allow me to say: I truly wish things will get better for you guys.
- Comment on Habits of Insects 6 days ago:
Yeah but sometimes it might not because that is not the main goal ! Useless, I tell you !
- Comment on Habits of Insects 6 days ago:
Neolib idiots don’t see the (immense) value of fundamental research because it doesn’t directly generate profits, more at 11
- Comment on Black owner here.... without context that sounds really bad 1 week ago:
Yeah I used to think that the breed does not meaningfully affect their personality but that changed when I met my gf’s orientals

- Comment on Black owner here.... without context that sounds really bad 1 week ago:
I think the siamese-types might just be orientals with the same color pattern as siameses. Which is basically the same thing as far as I’m concerned but apparently there are differences

Tbf a lot of these issues can be mitigated with good training. But yeah it’s still more work than maintaining a car

- Comment on Skyrim Is 13 Years Old, But Elder Scrolls 6 Is Nowhere in Sight While Bethesda’s First Four Games Took Only 12 Years 1 week ago:
Bethesda has some serious issues they need to sort out with their production pipelines
That’s a strange way to spell “Todd Howard” /s

- Comment on Metaphor: ReFantazio's success is further proof that politics are good in videogames, actually—no matter what reactionaries tell you 1 week ago:
its not normative womans, gays and trans people.
Not broad enough. When “gamers” say that something is political, what they mean is that it contains politics they disagree with. The ones you cited just happen to be the things they easily recognize because their favorite right wing grifter is raging about them 24/7. As you also said, they usually don’t have the media literacy required to recognize more subtle political messages, which can be pretty funny. I remember when Disco Elysium was first released and they were very confused because it contains some actual, pretty deep political reflections
- Comment on [Même] Which movie was this for you? 1 week ago:
Prometheus. I don’t care how stupid the plot is, and how many holes it has. Its aesthetics are (for the most part) excellent in a way that tickles my brain. I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t like it as much the second time though (especially since I saw it in a theater)
- Comment on [Même] Which movie was this for you? 1 week ago:
Eh, I never saw it as a kid, and I watched it recently… imo it’s a decent action flick. It barely makes sense in more than one way but I still enjoyed the ride
- Comment on [Même] Which movie was this for you? 1 week ago:
Oh so I guess that’s mine too. I didn’t even know it had been reviews
- Comment on Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl - Smoking Barrels Gameplay Trailer 2 weeks ago:
The old-school way, which is basically just overlaying an image with transparency over another one (in this case I also had to crop the template I found because it was the one with the 2 guys, and I used some online image editor tool but paint.net or gimp would have done the job if I had bothered to install them). I just searched “wojak pointing template PNG” in duckduckgo images search for the template.

These weapon handling animations look gorgeous. Hope they’re not faked for the trailer.
Basically me when I saw that one : Image

- Comment on Plans to ban smoking outside hospitals and schools in England 2 weeks ago:
Still addicted (planning to work on that after I’ve dealt with my employment situation). I always try to avoid forcing my smoke in people’s faces and I support this measure.

Academics : exists This fucking guy : “no one in the entire world knows when nuclear power was first theorized, and then confirmed by several experiments”

- Comment on World of Warcraft adds $90 mount to in game store 3 weeks ago:
Hmmm, okay. Added in dragonflight, apparently.
Well I guess I can finally shut up about this incredibly minor issue
- Comment on World of Warcraft adds $90 mount to in game store 3 weeks ago:
Oh yeah, I actually remember that from the last time I relapsed (Legion). I was wondering if I hallucinated that workaround… But it’s still just that : a stupid workaround. It baffles me that it is seemingly impossible for them to implement a keybind that targets the nearest “interactive” npc in range
