I mean if you get it in bulk it might be cheaper… but at the same time that would probably be really hard to make and take a major portion of the tungsten supply to make.

Considering the second language, my guess is that they didn’t have any 13 yo with a great grasp of the English language around.

I mean, if leaders would start getting mass executed they’d start caring.

I would argue Nintendo does do a lot of pro-consumer stuff. Like making actually good games. It’s just their anti-consumer stuff is either so bad or just plain weird that we just scratch our heads and think Nintendo is going off the deep end. Still trying to avoid buying much Nintendo going forward.

Last one I watched was Fairy Tail back when it ended. Before that was Gintama to episode 120 and Naruto when it ended.

Is it on purpose or is it because of ocean depth?

I remember Gabe was co-founder. So whoever the other guy is too I guess
- Comment on [8 years] Somehow I had never tried Starbound, so I went in totally blind and recorded my experience 3 months ago:
Supported this game on Kickstarter and it was my first Steam game ever. Couldn’t really get into it after release and then I heard of all the problems the game had in the end.
- Comment on There is no fix for Intel’s crashing 13th and 14th Gen CPUs — any damage is permanent 3 months ago:
I’m assuming it doesn’t affect them as much because they run at lower power.
- Comment on Unreal Engine supervisor at ModelFarm blasts 50% failure rate with Intel chips — company switching to AMD's Ryzen 9 9950X, praises single-threaded performance 3 months ago:
Hope ARM can get more into the desktop PC marketplace so we can have more competition. Someday Intel will stop taking Ls and try for a Monopoly again.

I have yet to see Laura’s dice. At this point I think they’re a myth. They gotta move that camera down.

They forgot the pepper AND the salt. What animals!
- Comment on World's largest sodium-ion battery goes into operation - Energy Storage 4 months ago:
Yes. Last I saw they lasted for more charges and had similar capacity to lithium. It’s been invested into so much because it is viable.
- Comment on World's largest sodium-ion battery goes into operation - Energy Storage 4 months ago:
Yes, but that is Lithium-ion. These batteries are Sodium-ion which are better for the environment and can potentially be made a lot cheaper… It’s still pretty new technology so it’s not really in any consumer products yet.

Unless it pierced something major(probably not) it will be wriggling for the next day at least. Trust me. I’m no roach biologist either.

Well saying it the wrong way sounds too much like gift. How often are you talking about Jiff peanut butter?

I’m thinking they would have less oxygen/carbon from the solar wind blowing stuff off our atmosphere to the moon. IDK though. I’m no expert.

I swear I’ve seen several other things with that symbol. It’s so simple.
- Comment on Nearly all Nintendo 64 games can now be recompiled into native PC ports to add proper ray tracing, ultrawide, high FPS, and more 5 months ago:
Yes. I know Zelda Ocarina of Time has many things, including walking speed, tied to framerate because of ZFG. Also, the 3DS remake reused a lot of the code and several things tied to framerate got quicker because it ran at 30 fps instead of 20. Items despawn quicker because they despawn at a set amount of frames.

Not to mention the fact that any new place your data is stored is a honeypot for criminals to try to hack. The more sensitive the data the better. Not every organization has the same protections and they will get your data stolen at some point.

Because personal data is the government’s data if it’s certain people.
- Comment on Study that asked people to count squashed bugs reveals worrying results 6 months ago:
I know it’s been ongoing. I’m just wondering where this surge of posts is coming from. I’m just observing that the surge came when it got warm enough for bugs here.
- Comment on Study that asked people to count squashed bugs reveals worrying results 6 months ago:
I’m seeing several of these posts about how there’s fewer bugs right as bugs on my bumper/windshield is starting to be a problem. Is this just people looking this up because they are seeing more bugs?

Zelda: Majora’s Mask. The characters were more real in that game than any other Zelda. So much emotion and good music.

Home assistant sounds cool, but I just want to be as manual as possible outside my computer at this point.

- Comment on Smart devices are turning out to be a poor investment 7 months ago:
Yeah. Usually “smart” means it does what the average person wants. Not that it’s customizable at all. Things trying to be smart is what a major portion of my frustrations lie. The other major portion is companies stealing my data.
