It’s so disheartening seeing how much plastic comes home from the grocery store.

He could be an antipope.
- Comment on Canada | Delta jet flips upside down on a snowy Toronto runway and all 80 aboard survive 3 days ago:
Just part of the boycott of America. The plane got the crappy runway with… no crosswind and dry conditions. Hrm.
- Comment on Far to many people think that Jesus from the Bible was light skinned, even though he grew up in what we call the Middle East. 5 days ago:
Yup. Born and die in a place where it wasn’t possible to believe because knowledge hadn’t spread yet? Believe it or not straight to hell.
- Comment on [Weekly thread] How is everyone doing with their home improvements? 1 week ago:
I replaced my faucets recently to something more modern. It was actually extremely east to do. The replacement kitchen faucet even had a mechanism for tightening it without going under the sink and trying to turn a wrench down there. Still had to go under the sink to connect the water lines and of course disconnect the old faucet.
- Comment on Best Buy Store 1 week ago:
I will: Never violate the trust of my clients or disrepsect their property. I will: Never say, “I don’t know.” Instead say, “I’ll find out.” I will: Always understand that my clients’ time is more valuable than my own. Sci-Fi conventions, car shows, and movie premieres be damned. I will: Assume every problem is my fault, unless proven otherwise.
Geek squad. We’ll steal your noods.

Papa Johns isn’t distancing themselves from their founder very well it seems.
Enterprise Rental Car is a surprise to me. I’ll boycot them now.
Dairy Queen… now that one hurts.
- Comment on For No Reason in Particular Here's a Bunch of Games Where You Kill Nazis 2 weeks ago:
There is PvP in Path of Exile 2 and at least one known Nazi player. Go ahead and kill him when his Boosting Ground worker is off the clock.
Hahaha, love this!
- Comment on Is there something similar to the old Might and Magics? 2 weeks ago:
I bought Might and Magic 8 and brought it home. There was only the play CD and no install CD. Never been so disappointed when buying a game in my life. I bought the game during a trip and couldn’t easily return it.
TLDR: I love Steam

Hope you got to the hospital. That looks like a nasty stroke.

The amount of people who refuted your statement is… concerning and weird.

- Comment on Mario Kate update 1 month ago:
The jump slide feels weird to me in 8. Like it sends you the wrong way first, then the turn happens. Bikes seem different though so maybe I’m just not used to the physics.

I ain’t no pansy ass spawn camper! That ain’t how you play doom!

Yeah that ain’t happening on mobile with no strafe.
- Comment on Steam Winter Sale Featured Deep Discounts - any recommendations? 1 month ago:
I got the new Tomb Raider games free on Epic, but it seemed more like torture porn than a game. Had to turn it off.
- Comment on Patient gamer badge of honor on the Steam Replay 2024 2 months ago:
Damn, that’s quite the badge of honour! I had to check mine but because of the new Steam Family Sharing I tried out a bunch of new games that I never bought myself.

I saw this go on sale from my wishlist, but forgot why I wishlisted it. I’ll have to give it another look.
- Comment on Niche Communities won't be able to reach their true potential until lemmy adds a sort that takes engagement into account. 2 months ago:
I see you talked about using scaled, but not scaled in conjunction with subscribed. I reread your post and still don’t see it. Sorry.

Oh, you can also select to see only subscribed communities, and then apply scaled sort. This is my go-to sort after exploring top-6h for a while.
- Comment on Castlevania Anniversary Collection free on Epic Games through 2024-11-21 2 months ago:
The only issues I’ve had with epic is controller support being nonexistent. And no avatar icons.
I have quite a few free games from there, some I’d probably not have played. 20XX was free a while back and I just loved it. Then bought 30XX on Steam when it came out.
I ain’t going to give Epic a cent, but I’ll take advantage of their marketing practices.

Pretty much a spiritual successor. Like how Cities Skyline is Sim City but newer.

- Comment on I rented many games solely based on their covers, only to be mildly disappointed when I got home. 3 months ago:
I was playing the 20th anniversary edition recently and they have developer commentary built into the game with little activated speech bubbles spread throughout a few levels. It was neat hearing them talk about how they targeted 20fps from a certain location on the map for a 486 SX 33, so to reach that they deleted a few pixels here and there.

I still remember swapping out my 486 SX 33Mhz with a 486 DX 100! I could finally play Duke Nukem 3D properly. Some areas got down to a frame every 2 seconds with the old processor.
