He’s probably being pretentious and obtuse intentionally and for a reason.

Its now like -gate being affixed to any kind of publicized controversy.
Most people do not understand what Watergate even was and why it was so significant.
I think you mean watergategate.
- Comment on To all you outside of the US... 3 days ago:
I mean, I follow the presidental race somewhat because it has global impact, but watching the debates is not worth my time, and I’m fairly certain it’s not worth anyone’s time, especially non-americans.

I’m pretty sure cookie clicker has no victory condition, it just goes on and on. At least it was that way last time I played it. Things might have changed since.
- Comment on Technically, almost all video games are puzzle games. 1 week ago:
This reminds me of an exhibiton I once saw called “No Pain, No Game”. The idea being that any sort of game has some failure state, some obstacle to overcome, that’s what makes it a game. So of course I started thinking of counter-examples. Your slot machine idea is a good one, what I eventually came up with is Cookie Clicker. That game is nothing but positive reinforcement. There’s no way to lose progress or mess anything up, any action you take makes you “win more”. Not taking an action also makes you “win more”, just more slowly.
This showerthought is an idea adjacent to that all. Interesting stuff, even though it’s not too deep.
- Comment on My mom's doctor be like 1 week ago:
Nope, this was real.
Source? Some of these were real, but there’s also a ton of fake bullshit floating around.

Holy shit!
- Comment on Android has a "Ctrl+Z" feature, the keyboards just dont support it 1 week ago:
With an OTG connector you can just plug a keyboard into your phone. You can do stuff like alt-tab to switch between open apps. And if you plug in a mouse, a giant cursor appears. It’s kinda cursed but it works.

- Comment on You can travel just a 100 thousand years at the speed of light and already gross the galaxy. The Andromedan mind cannot comprehend 2 months ago:
Good point. You need to turn around and start braking at the halfway point. Stretching the time needed to 22 years and a few months.
- Comment on You can travel just a 100 thousand years at the speed of light and already gross the galaxy. The Andromedan mind cannot comprehend 2 months ago:
You can cross the galaxy in about 12 years while accelerating at a comfortable 1g. Your newtonian mind cannot comprehend this.
- Comment on Why are SMS messages so expensive? 2 months ago:
Worst is it gets you into the mindset of “I have this much for the month so I might as well use it” and influence you to use it more. I don’t want that.
