In June we moved from the Fried Chicken to the chef’s nostrils. Now we are boogers
- Comment on Fired Employee Allegedly Hacked Disney World's Menu System to Alter Peanut Allergy Information. 3 weeks ago:
A while back a woman died after eating at a Disney restaurant and being assured that the food she was ordering was allergen free. Disney responded very poorly to the husband’s suit, but I wonder if the Disney employee believed things were allergen free because of one of these hacked menus.
- Comment on Paradox think there's no point competing with XCOM after their Lamplighters flop - it's "winner takes all" in the "tactical gaming space" 5 weeks ago:
This is so disappointing. I am a huge fan of Harebrained. Battletech is fantastic. I’m unsure why Lamplighters was unable to do what it needed to do.
- Comment on Nolte: CBS Corruption – Anchor Shamed for Coates Interview, ‘60 Minutes’ Rigs Kamala Interview 1 month ago:
So, definitely not conservative, but the first part of that headline is absolutely accurate. The man who asked Coates difficult questions has been publicly criticized by the network.
The second part of that headline is absolutely bullshit.
- Comment on Another job lost because of technology 👿 2 months ago:
Yes, but what gorgeous country to get fucked in! When my wife PCSd from Long Island to Fort Knox, we drove through that country several times.
She would also spend a lot of time at Fort Lee (now Gregg-Adams) and the drive from Fort Knox to Fort Lee also crossed amazing parts of WV.
- Comment on Another job lost because of technology 👿 2 months ago:
My father was an itinerant minister. He traveled all over the country. We made great use of TripTik (I think that’s what it was called).
- Comment on how do I accept that a doctor earns more than double what I do? 2 months ago:
Your worth, your value is not determined by what someone else makes.
Also, I’m a bit ignorant of this subject so forgive me if I get it wrong, but did he not go to school significantly longer for his MD than you did for yours?
I believe he also had to go through the hell that is residency, I didn’t believe nurses do.
If you’re envious of his salary, improve your skills, or your education. If you’re happy where you are at In life, then don’t let the fact that others make more than you interfere with that happiness.
No matter what you do, there will always be others who make more, one of those sad facts of life.

Hello ramble81, I am calling to check if your refrigerator is running… It is? Oh my goodness you better run faster and catch it!
- Comment on Have you ever realized just how broken you are? 3 months ago:
What a lovely post. Thank you for sharing it.
I’m 60 years old, my father passed many years ago. I have still not come to grips with all the complexities of our relationship. My wife knows that if we ever see a film or TV show where a parent, but particularly a father shows any form of approval for something their son did, I will turn into a blubbering mess.
That said, more rational me knows that there were many ways in which my father was a good dad, if am willing to take the time to look for them.
I have three sons and a daughter, my greatest hope in life is that they won’t have the same issues with me as a father that I did with my own dad.
Thanks again for this amazing story about how even small things we do can have a great impact, and not necessarily on those we expect them to.

Gosh, on one hand this is tragic, on the other I can’t wait to see what they come up with.

Minecraft and Football Manager 24.

This was a spectacular read. Consumable even with no engineering background.
Really well done.
- Comment on Respawn are "thinking about Titanfall a lot," even if it’s to serve Apex Legends 9 months ago:
I suck at shooters. For some reason, I suck slightly less at Titanfall. I’d love to see more.
- Comment on Let’s try it? 9 months ago:
Absolutely works for me that’s a very anarchistic take.
- Comment on A literal child taking orders in a fast food restaurant in the US 10 months ago:
I was delivering papers at 11 or 12. First real job at 14.
My daughter just turned 14 and she has her first job working one day a week at an after school program.
This should not be such a big deal. You learn important life skills and have your own money to spend.

Love my Kindle.

He’s only a “so-called journalist” . So probably not.

- Comment on Starfield’s player count slips below Skyrim on Steam, just two months after Bethesda’s ‘biggest launch ever’ 1 year ago:
That’s kinda like saying “but there being no way to play it aside from being a Dragon Born…”
- Comment on For pleasure and profit. 1 year ago:
Definitely laughed out loud!
- Comment on For pleasure and profit. 1 year ago:
Growing up I had a “shrunken head” kit that used apples and a 100 watt light bulb. It provided hair and stuff to make shrunken heads.
I thought it was cool, but my results never matched what was on the box.
- Comment on Lore question: How do Credsticks work? 1 year ago:
Ship depreciation is a killer. The moment you fly it off the lot it loses about 90% of it’s value!
- Comment on Favorites Broken on Series X 1 year ago:
Well I’m glad to know I’m not alone. It’s silly that you can’t unfavorite something.

- Comment on Starfield players create famous faces in-game, and a Todd Howard flashlight 1 year ago:
My problem right now is I created my character and am very happy with them in character creator, but when I look at him in game I’m unhappy. I’ve even paid to tweak him a bit and it’s better but I’m still not happy.
- Comment on A Question on Art Syles for Indie Games 1 year ago:
I am older than Pong. I’ve lived through all the art styles, and going backward to pixel art usually frustrates me. I’m a huge fan of Synty’s low polygon style. I think they do great work
- Comment on Bayonetta director Hideki Kamiya thinks Japanese devs should be proud of 'JRPG' 1 year ago:
This is a really interesting take, I’ve never thought about RPGs this way. I’m guessing this is why Witcher 3 is my favorite game of all time, followed by Red Dead Redemption and and GTA V.
Thanks for giving me a new take on this.

Playing 2 right now and I love it, but the difficulty! Playing on the easiest difficulty just to figure out what’s going on everywhere.

XCOM2 and PGA Tour and watching my wife post Skyrim.
