- Comment on Crunchyroll is destroying its subtitles for no good reason 20 hours ago:Heyo yee. I cancelled when they made their web UI shittier in like 2019 or something. 
- Comment on 'Valve does not get anywhere near enough criticism': DayZ creator Dean Hall says the 'gambling mechanics' of Valve's monetization strategy 'have absolutely no place' in videogames 1 day ago:My hats and a weird patch got me a ton of free games and an Index so I have to agree with you. I have a dope ass piece of sick VR shit that I got for zero moneys. 
- Comment on 'Valve does not get anywhere near enough criticism': DayZ creator Dean Hall says the 'gambling mechanics' of Valve's monetization strategy 'have absolutely no place' in videogames 1 day ago:I had too many unopened loot crates #1-20 and one day there was a weird patch and I sold them all to get a free Valve Index in 2020 
- Comment on 'Valve does not get anywhere near enough criticism': DayZ creator Dean Hall says the 'gambling mechanics' of Valve's monetization strategy 'have absolutely no place' in videogames 1 day ago:Daaamn Ragnarok Online had OBBs and OPBs in like 2003… they just weren’t purchasable with cash unless you went through third parties. But they are loot boxes. Also my favorite game ever and I spent so many hours farming for loot boxes to sell. 
- Comment on Good Halloween Games 1 day ago:Anything by Chilla’s Art. The Coffee Shop, Parasocial, The Bathhouse, Shinkansen 0, The Radio Station. Also The Hex if you want a spooky mood but no jumpscares. Go in blind, it’s by Daniel Mullins who did Inscryption. It’s an incredible game. Ignore the screenshots on Steam and don’t watch the trailer, it’s five USD and the graphics make sense after playing for 30m. If you want jump scares, At Dead of Night. My partner and I are horror aficionados and we cannot play that game. 
- Comment on Minecraft is removing code obfuscation in Java Edition 1 day ago:Fuckin right? ALSO can Mojang get my goshfuckin ALPHA account back that Microsoft deleted because I wasn’t paying attention to their bullshit during COVID and now it’s gone forever even if I make a Microsoft account which I will never do and now I have to pay money to Microsoft (which I will also never do and have never done)? 
- Comment on Why do seemingly all politicians (and no one else) do that hand gesture when they talk, the one where it looks like they're holding an invisible fishing rod? 1 day ago:Gotta make those policies seem friendly and non-aggressive! 
- Comment on Pronouns history 1 day ago:I urge everyone to go play Corpsepile’s “The Man Man”, it’s a browser game. I think you need to be on a keyboard. Go in blind. I went in blind while pot-high for the first time in months and it was a GRAND experience. 
- Comment on YSK tricks for one of the cheapest meals: beans and rice 2 days ago:Not you hahaha The person you were responding to. 
- Comment on YSK tricks for one of the cheapest meals: beans and rice 2 days ago:checks their history Seems like a troll account to make vegans sound bad 
- Comment on Who was your first childhood videogame crush? 2 days ago:Tails, when I was maybe six? I had very confusing feelings about him. Shameen from Quest for Glory. Brandywine from Kyrandia. Renamon. I didn’t learn what a “furry” was until I was a young in the early 00s, many many years later. 
- Comment on Can't have nice things 3 days ago:I had a WMR kit that just tore through rechargeable AAa. Using non-rechargeables lasted soooo much longer, and the rechargeables I have are high end! Got an index and THOSE controller batteries are fantastic. 
- Comment on Study Claims 4K/8K TVs Aren't Much Better Than HD To Your Eyes 3 days ago:I don’t doubt that for a second. It’s like in the early 2010s when tons of people on Reddit were like “30FPS is all you need, you don’t need more especially in a strategy game or RPG” and I’m seething because my neurospicy ass cannot handle the choppiness of 30FPS and they’ve probably never even seen 120, 144, 165FPS… 
- Comment on Study Claims 4K/8K TVs Aren't Much Better Than HD To Your Eyes 3 days ago:Agreed with 8k file size for now, but 1080p to 4k is still hugely noticeable to me. 
- Comment on Study Claims 4K/8K TVs Aren't Much Better Than HD To Your Eyes 3 days ago:I forgot to mention, I sold TVs when 1080p was popularized and HD-DVD and Blu Ray came out hahaha. That’s mostly where I heard the “you can’t tell the difference between 720p and 1080” BS. There was plenty of 1080p stuff by the end of the ‘00s and people were still making that argument. 
- Comment on Study Claims 4K/8K TVs Aren't Much Better Than HD To Your Eyes 3 days ago:Complete bullshit articles. The same thing happened when 720p became 1080p. So many echos of “oh you won’t see the difference unless the screen is huge”… like no, you can see the difference on a tiny screen. We’ll have these same bullshit arguments when 8k becomes the standard, and for every large upgrade from there. 
- Comment on Study Claims 4K/8K TVs Aren't Much Better Than HD To Your Eyes 3 days ago:This discussion drives me crazy because it’s the EXACT SAME FUCKING discussion that happened when 1080p screens became available in the 00s. So many people argued “oh it depends how far away you sit but you don’t really notice it” and “oh if the screen size is small your eyes can’t tell” NO monthafucka if you have halfway decent eyesight there’s NO WAY you won’t notice a huge change in quality from 720p to 1080p even on a 6” screen. 1080 to 4k is noticeable on almost ANY size screen (we all just skip 1440p, don’t we?) and as the size of the screen goes up and up, it just gets more and more noticeable. 
- Comment on [deleted] 3 days ago:Yeah, the one that’s you beat and it’s like “NOPE SECOND HEALTHBAR”, then you beat it again and it’s like “UMMM TIME DOR ANOTHER HEALTH BAR” I’m fairly early into the expansion, I’ve only beaten two legacy dungeons. I figured I’d just come back once I learned he’s options. 
- Comment on mercy merci 4 days ago:I love jumping spiders and always keep them in my home when I see them but for my neurospicy brain, that video is a fucking nightmare to watch with those subtitles and I hate it I hate it I hate it aaaaaa 
- Comment on mercy merci 4 days ago:I have off-limits places: where I sleep and in the shower. If I can’t reach them and they’re there… unfortunately they get the hand vac. Otherwise, it’s time to bring out and index card and Dedicated Spider Cup. It’s outside if it’s not winter, and basement if it’s winter. 
- Comment on [deleted] 5 days ago:Fuck yeah! I don’t think I ever will. I’m down hundreds hours in of just fucking around and exploring and I keep hitting walls in the expansion. There’s a crazy tree bitch I can’t kill at the bottom of somewhere even with expert help. Aaaaaaaaa 
- Comment on Where can I buy used computers, and are they on a discount now because of Windows 10 end of life? 5 days ago:Thank you for the info! She’s being sunset for an air eventually here. Original battery, turns out she’s only got about 26 cycles—I thought her to bring to LAN parties with W7 as a dual boot and her video card kicked ass for that! Kept her plugged in all the time. Battery looks perfect, and on full brightness she gets through 1.75 playthroughs of Beetlejuice. No rattles, always had a cooling mat with fans under her while I was playing games. Fans are all doing great! 
- Comment on Where can I buy used computers, and are they on a discount now because of Windows 10 end of life? 5 days ago:2011 MacBook Pro 15” I’m still using, too! Mostly for just web browsing and picture storage. iPhoto is so good. 
- Comment on "Analog bags" are in. Doomscrolling is out. 6 days ago:BE CAREFUL following this advice! My friend took up knitting a few years back and now we have two cat beds, a few scarves, a blanket, and her house is overflowing with shaped yarn goodies. It seems very addictive.

- Comment on More than 1,200 games journalists have left the media in the last two years | VGC 1 week ago:Good riddance to any gar journalists who rate games on a 6/10 to 10/10 scale. I insinuated because sponsors, but fuck that. 
- Comment on Well do you? 1 week ago:That’s insanity. No shade to Tom Arnold. That was the worse character I have ever seen represent a brand ever. I am so happy it failed but I wish the best for Tom. 
- Comment on OpenAI will allow mature content, including erotica, to verified adult users as of December 1 week ago:When your messages on Snapchat are no longer visible to you or the person you’re talking to, they’re not deleted. They’re still on their servers. You just don’t see them anymore.
