- Comment on If I have a cupcake. And then I take the frosting off the cupcake. Is it still a cupcake, or a muffin? 2 hours ago:
Isn’t the cupcake defined by being in a cup? So I’d say a muffin is also a cupcake.

There’s a type of pea which is called “Kiechererbse” in German. “Erbse” is the German word for pea. And “Kiecher” is the old German word for pea.

- Comment on I Spent the Last 2 weeks Playing Every Leisure Suit Larry Game Ever Made. Here's My Review 6 days ago:
You sometimes have to type commands like in the old games. It is not purely point and click. That’s especially tedious on the Steam Deck.
Ordinarily not a huge deal but unfortunately enough for me.

What a shit list. Everyone knows that Larry 4 is the best one!
Replayed Larry 6 the other day. It seems to be the most accessible to me. Unfortunately I couldn’t handle Larry 7 with my disability. I think I never played it and was looking forward to it.

To further muddy the water we had Baldur’s Gate 3, which was made by an independent studio with AAA budget.
- Comment on Stardew Valley creator says he might make Stardew Valley 2 1 week ago:
I recently recommended the game to my wife and since then she tells me every day what her progress is and what she hates about the game and how tedious it is and how bad and inconsistent the controls are. And then she’s off to play more.

- Comment on Are we the dark timeline? 1 week ago:
I think we experience quantum immortality. There could have been several world ending events in the last ~20 years. But since we can only observe what we survive our reality becomes increasingly more. unlikely.
So while the world might be getting worse and worse it will just skid past the really bad events for most people.
Of course, if we hadn’t shot Harambe we would be in the best timeline.
- Comment on Wikipedia sources their information better than most journalists do in their articles. 2 weeks ago:
Theoretically this should still be available somewhere in the edit history.
- Comment on What are some good examples of "Where the fuck do you go" kind of games? 2 weeks ago:
When I played Day of the Tentacle I got stuck. Eventually I caved in and ordered the official hint book. Mind you, back then this entailed mailing a physical letter and the money somewhere. I guess my parents helped with that. And then you had to wait for your order to arrive. And the post was a lot slower than today.
I waited weeks for the book to arrive. And then, the day before it came, I finished the game. Use physics book with horse was the last puzzle I needed.
But the money wasn’t wasted entirely. The game’s story was written down from the pov of one of the characters. Pretty funny.
- Comment on Wikipedia sources their information better than most journalists do in their articles. 2 weeks ago:
Germany once had a minister of defence with a ridiculous number of first names. I think 12 names or so. Then one guy kept editing in another into Wikipedia. During the edit war where people were deleting the extra name and he was putting it back in some journalist used Wikipedia as a source for the names and they copied the fake one down. So now the guy had a source he could point to to win the edit war.
I think it took several months until this was resolved.
- Comment on sus 2 weeks ago:
I’d say no. I liked it well enough. But it’s frustrating with all the unresolved plotlines.
But it’s been a really long time since I’ve watched it, so maybe there’s some awesome stuff I forgot.

Unreal. I stopped playing when I couldn’t find the exit.
