- Comment on Does Arkham Knight get better? 3 days ago:
Yeah, the Spider-Man games are a good comparison. A ton of different moves you can do but most of them are pretty easy and intuitive to pull of. I’m patiently waiting for Spider-Man 2 to arrive on PC.
I think I’ll invest a few more hours into Arkham Knight and if I can’t get into it I’ll try Origins. And if that one doesn’t do it for me either I’ll just play Asylum again.
Thanks all for your input!

- Comment on NASA remotely reprogramming Voyager 1 also means that aliens can reprogram all of our satellites. 5 days ago:
Yes, one entity being able to reprogram one piece of tech definitely means another entity is able to reprogram every other piece of tech that is slightly related.
- Comment on [Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism? 6 days ago:
I did get offended when, after a very successful date, I went to a shawarma place with her and we both had a super awesome shawarma with lots of meat. For the next date I made some pizza rolls with salami and she confessed that she actually doesn’t eat meat.
I still tease her about that when I meet her nowadays.

Spectator. Beholders are even more dangerous.
- Comment on Is there a way to post video on Lemmy? 6 days ago:
I don’t even know how to properly configure it on my own instance. I thought I had configured it properly to handle large gifs, but then it still doesn’t work sometimes for some random reason.
Doesn’t make it easier that lemmy uses pictrs 4 when pictrs 5 is currently the stable version. But I have no idea if Lemmy can handle that.

And on top of that we’ve only seen a false color version of that image for a long time, leading us to believe that it’s a much deeper blue than Uranus.
- Comment on epidemiology 1 week ago:
It isn’t a single “thing” you are some distance away from. It’s photons remaining from the early universe that can be found everywhere without direction. Pick “one” of them and you can track your speed relative to it. It’s the closest thing we have to a universal reference frame.

- Comment on We keep measuring everything's value with something that continuously loses value over time 1 week ago:
Why does it?
It basically happens when people buy money. When you get 100,000 € but pay 120,000 € back you added 20,000 € to the overall system which makes everything become slightly more expensive to account for the additional money available.
- Comment on We keep measuring everything's value with something that continuously loses value over time 1 week ago:
I never understood why inflation was a good thing. I understand why it happens. But I can’t wrap my head around the value of your money going down being good.
Maybe so you actually spend it. But then it also keeps you from saving up for bigger purchases or having some emergency money tucked away.

Whatever. The bear sex announcement was a marketing genius move. It got everyone talking about the game. Of course it helped that they then also delivered.
