Cochrane also invented warp drive to get laid.
- Comment on The Star Wars Outlaws flop - Guillemot blames waning interest in the franchise 2 days ago:
Anything with a cohesive narrative would have been better than the sequel trilogy, including Dark Empire. Hell, Abrams did Dark Empire anyway, he just compressed it into a single film along with ESB and ROTJ because he’s never had a single original idea about Star Wars.
- Comment on Is it weird I don't typically answer how old I am anymore, because literally nobody besides my family believes me? 5 days ago:
Another weird thing is anti-loitering devices hurt my ears, and those aren’t supposed to affect people older than 20.
That assumes that your hearing is damaged at the average rate. Don’t blast your music or TV and wear hearing protection when using a lawnmower or other loud device and you can keep hearing those high pitched sounds into your thirties.

So you’re saying that if I stop feeding my mogwai after midnight I should be able to plug in my USB devices on the first try?

If we’re really lucky, they could also be Ferengi.
- Comment on EA reportedly shelves Need For Speed completely to focus on other projects 1 week ago:
Unbound was basically Underground 3. Story wasn’t exceptional or anything, though.
- Comment on Google hit with $314m fine for collecting data from idle Android phones without permission 2 weeks ago:
That’s actually shopped. The game’s writer said he wishes he wrote that line, though.

Mitochondria, for sure. They even still have their own DNA separate from your actual human DNA.
- Comment on 'Xbox Hardware Is Dead,' Says Founding Team Member, 'It Looks Like Xbox Has No Desire — Or Literally Can't — Ship Hardware Anymore' - IGN 3 weeks ago:
They had all that free marketting from people assuming the third one would be the 720 and they ditched it in favor of calling it the Xbox One, which everyone was already using for the name of the first Xbox. Still baffled by that one.
- Comment on Why is the progress pride flag so poorly designed (especially the intersex progress pride flag)? Will it be redesigned? 4 weeks ago:
Why are there jpg compression artifacts in your png?
- Comment on New report suggests third-party Switch 2 game sales are "below estimates" 4 weeks ago:
In other words, they’re exactly the same as a lot of the games on disc for Xbox and PlayStation.
- Comment on Too wordy a shitpost? 4 weeks ago:
Checkov’s Law and Murphy’s Gun seem to mean the same thing.
- Comment on What game has the best tutorial, in your opinion? 5 weeks ago:
I think the Great Plateau is roughly the size of OOT’s entire world, so if she only played classic titles that may feel reasonable.
- Comment on Switch 2 Breaks Records By Selling Over 3.5 Million Units In Four Days 5 weeks ago:
Don’t forget that the Wii U had one of the most incompetent console marketing campaigns of all time. Just two years ago I met someone who still didn’t know it was a console and not an accessory.
- Comment on iFixit says the Switch 2 is even harder to repair than the original 1 month ago:
Nintendo has been the Apple of the video game world since the N64.

I’ve got it! It’s Shatner’s alt account!
- Comment on Lara Croft games are the nightmare of any real archaeologist, biologist and paleontologist. 1 month ago:
To be fair, the odds of removing a dagger from a pedestal doing that are extremely low, even in the survivor trilogy.

Here you go.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
That’s still a paradox.
- Comment on End of 10 - Windows ten is ending. Microsoft wants you to buy a new computer. But what if you could make your current one fast and secure again? 2 months ago:
I’ll be doing both with Linux as my primary and Win10 as a compatibility fallback.
- Comment on End of 10 - Windows ten is ending. Microsoft wants you to buy a new computer. But what if you could make your current one fast and secure again? 2 months ago:
Multiplayer games and ones that require Uplay or Origin (can’t remember their new names) have issues, but most single player stuff will run fine. You’ll typically have to run them via Wine or Proton, but Steam will handle that for you.
- Comment on Wikipedia sources their information better than most journalists do in their articles. 2 months ago:
One of those ditzy but attractive types, perhaps?
- Comment on Just a pic of two besties 2 months ago:
You don’t really find those so much as make them.
- Comment on How Will We Know If The Trump Tariffs Were A Good Idea? 2 months ago:
There isn’t even a federal sales tax to replace, just state sales taxes.
- Comment on 2 months ago:
The Sangheli in Halo actually have two fingers and two thumbs on each hand.
- Comment on [Digital Foundry] Oblivion Remastered PC: Impressive Remastering, Dire Performance Problems 2 months ago:
Doesn’t work in the remaster; they changed so that all skills contribute to level up progress.
- Comment on Well played, Todd: You can see Skyrim, or at least its tallest mountain, from the edge of Oblivion Remastered 2 months ago:
Oblivion and Skyrim are 200 years apart, but geographically border each other. Classic Oblivion didn’t render Skyrim, but that was more for technical reasons than anything else. If you get high enough up in Skyrim on a clear day you can see the entire continent.

Yes, but you have to shake the cow pretty vigorously.
- Comment on Oblivion Remaster Rockets Past 100K Players on Steam Hours After Launch - Insider Gaming 2 months ago:
I like to describe classic Oblivion characters as looking like they were all carved from the same potato.
