  What if there’s a pan dimensional being with their hands stuck in the cosmical cylinder trying to grab our universe?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Majima-Focused Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii Announced at RGG Summit as Next Yakuza Game⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yakuza is a very japanese game.

  It is has a serious narrative about crime, politics, family issues, corruption and honor. And in the next scene you’re spending thousands of dollars (yens?) on a custom toy car to win a slot car championship or building your own go kart and race against other gangster.

  Let’s just say that this is not too out of the ordinary.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube Hype gives smaller creators a place to shine⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Seems like a nice idea but I’m gonna place a bet here and say that this will be heavily gamefied by those fake Elon Musk streams trying to sell crypto or something similar.

  This could also be exploited by those who use info stealers to hijack browser sessions and hype fraudulent streams.

  I just wish we could also sort the leaderboard by category. I have no interest in gossip or drama.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Oxygen⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes… But no.

  They don’t need to plot anything. We are already consuming oxygen and replacing it with carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide.

  Or perhaps this was their plan all along??

  DUN DUN DUNNN

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Brazilian court orders suspension of Elon Musk’s X after it missed deadline⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, this left a bad taste.

  At least he revoked this section of the decision a couple hours later.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon Musk urged to take X responsibilities more seriously⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re right but IMO that part of the article that you highlighted should be the news, not the “we should make Musk do something”.

  Musk is a billionaire that thrives on attention so any form of headline that cites his name is playing his game.

  Twitter is a company with investors. They should be accountable to what happens in their domain. And not by having their wrist slapped because – for the nth time – something bad happened. Media should be saying by now that Twitter is a bad place.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon Musk urged to take X responsibilities more seriously⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not sure if Twitter has “responsibilities” to begin with. It has what we - as a society - give it the legitimacy to have.

  Life is too short to read all the words

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is Batman TAS Amoled friendly?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I lasted about 4 answers until I remembered that TAS in this context means The Animated Series and not Tool Assisted Speedrun

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does Instagram or YouTube Shorts get you?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nope. I don’t like the format.

  A 30 seconds video is like repeating the same mistakes that turned Twitter (yes, even before Elon Musk) to what it is today: a place that there’s no shade of gray, no nuance and everything is outrageous. A Short has no time to elaborate on anything and can simplify the subject so much that it becomes just misinformation.

  Also I don’t believe it’s worth for creators in the long run. I’m not a creator myself but I believe that the time-effort to create a video is not linear with its duration. They can make a short so elaborated and viral that it would be more worth to create a full video in regards of sponsorship, ad revenue and subscription retention.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows 11 Start menu ads are now rolling out to everyone⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Since I’ve adopted PowerToys -> PowerToys Run and set a shortcut to open it with “Super (windows key) + Space” I don’t know what a start menu is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You can. As others have said it’s just a trend.

  There are parts made specifically for those like you (and me) who don’t like unicorn barf all over their room. (My case has RGB fans. I just don’t connect these pins tho)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Programmer tries to explain binary search to the police⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean… their job supposedly is to protect and serve the citiens so yeah… I’d expect them to use their tools to do their job.

  Maybe take a look on Hunchly?

  It’s a tool for online investigations so it might be useful for what you’re looking for

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Peertube's moment might come soon⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Sharing video is such a big problem that even Google couldn’t solve it when it was their time. They just bought their biggest competitor when their own platform didn’t get traction. And then operated at a loss for years and years.

  I’d love to see descentralized video platforms as the next guy but there are serious barriers that come with the medium

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How on earth do you water your plants in macrame hangers?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Sorry, I just edited the message so you can check it better.

  TL;DR: Yes. It’s just a drip system that doesn’t flood the vase.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How on earth do you water your plants in macrame hangers?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I put a water bottle with a hole in the cap facing down and adjust the drippage. Like https://sagesacre.com/2021/02/12/garden-hack-diy-water-bottle-drip-watering-system/

  You can just flip the whole bottle without the cap and stick it into the soil if the vase is big or the bottle is small enough

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How should I find a good hair cut?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Here’s a list on order of what I think you should address before deciding your next haircut:

  • What’s your hair type? Is it curly? Extra curly? Straight? Does it have too much (or lacks) volume? You can change your hair to some degree (mine is curly and I used to straighten it when I was your age) so have this in mind.

  • What’s your personal style? Do you like it short like people in the army or would you like it to be bigger? Are you a metalhead, a punk or like the classic pompadour?

  -How much time do you want to spend on it every morning? Some styles are much more time consuming to maintain than others.

  They’re are all personal questions that you have to answer yourself. Just think about them for a while and decide on what you think is cool. Then walk to a barber shop that your trust and ask the guy to make yours like the photo. If the guy does a bad job then put on a cap and wait for it to grow back haha

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apparently, all you need to do to "git gud" in an online FPS is to reduce hand "stress" while aiming.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh yes…don’t get me wrong. I think OSU can be a great tool to practice aiming. I’ve seen League of Legends players using it to farm better too.

  It’s just that I don’t think one can play a FPS like they play OSU. They have more “dimensions”, I guess.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apparently, all you need to do to "git gud" in an online FPS is to reduce hand "stress" while aiming.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The video is impressive but it’s basically a OSU pro player playing OSU with a gun.

  I don’t know if the skill would transfer to a FPS e-sport, though. I wonder how the key mapping would look like with various movement, skills and what not.
