- Comment on Despite tech-savvy reputation, Gen Z falls behind in keyboard typing skills 2 months ago:
Older gen z here, and while I haven’t noticed the analogue thing, I’ve 100% noticed tech illiteracy in general.
Like, I’m talking about having a downloads folder full of junk because they don’t know that that’s where downloads end up. Installers left untouched after programs are installed because they’re worried that deleting the installer will delete the installed program.
Imo being raised with closed ecosystems like iPhones really stunted tech literacy for a lot of people. I grew up jailbreaking my phones and used my parent’s windows pc, so I kind of escaped it.

- Comment on Jesus could have been an antique meme à la Chuck Norris that got waaaay out of hand 2 months ago:
This sort of thing happens all the time, good intentions getting twisted over time.
Iirc the reason you’re not allowed to depict Muhammad, for example, was because Muhammad didn’t want pictures of to be used to worship him. He didn’t want to be deified basically.
Cut to today and his followers will literally kill anyone that even tries, even those outside of the religion, due to their worship of Muhammad, something that he clearly never would have wanted. It literally goes against the reason he had the rule in the first place.

- Comment on What’s a game you can 100% without hating by the end? 2 months ago:
I hadn’t checked out their other stuff, so I didn’t know about Imposter Factory. Another game added to the wishlist, excited to check it out!
- Comment on What’s a game you can 100% without hating by the end? 2 months ago:
Lots of indie games, but To the Moon is an easy one. Super sad, but it’s a short game that’s 100%’d once you finish the story

- Comment on Does Arkham Knight get better? 5 months ago:
But even just the fact that we’ve never once heard of him until this entry, and suddenly we’re getting loads of backstory, makes the “reveal” comically obvious.
- Comment on Does Arkham Knight get better? 6 months ago:
It has its issues for sure, but the gameplay certainly isn’t one of them (barring the tank sections). I recently played all four games back to back and Knight has by far the most responsive and fluid combat in the series.
- Comment on Helldivers 2 Players Express Frustration On Steam As It Will Soon Require A PSN Account 6 months ago:
Cross progression isn’t cross play. Cross progression is when you can take a save on what device and continue it on another one, like from PlayStation to Xbox or PC.
And, obviously, that could only work by linking accounts. There’s literally no other way that could work.
- Comment on Helldivers 2 Players Express Frustration On Steam As It Will Soon Require A PSN Account 6 months ago:
Am I missing something? The link only talks about account migration and the rewards that I mentioned in my previous comment. There’s no mention of crossplay.
And yeah, obviously you would need to link your PS or Xbox account to use account migration. That’s how that feature works. Cyberpunk and Witcher are singleplayer games, crossplay wouldn’t apply anyway.
- Comment on Helldivers 2 Players Express Frustration On Steam As It Will Soon Require A PSN Account 6 months ago:
Cyberpunk and Witcher don’t require a CDPR account, it’s optional for some cosmetic rewards in the respective games.
So really the only companies doing this are Ubisoft and EA. Sony’s in great company…

No fucking kidding lmao
- Comment on Instagram Advertises Nonconsensual AI Nude Apps 6 months ago:
That’s what I was hoping too, and I’m sure for some it does, but I also saw an article the other day about people using these to blackmail children into giving real nudes, so fuck me I guess.
- Comment on Instagram Advertises Nonconsensual AI Nude Apps 6 months ago:
I mean literally yes, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t still horrible
- Comment on A good test to see if an alien race has a sense of humor would be to ask if they imitate each other's ways of speaking 6 months ago:
You can still hear someone mocking another’s voice without knowing what they’re saying.
- Comment on Does Sign Language have puns? 7 months ago:
Depends on what you mean by puns. As someone else pointed out, some signs in and of themselves are jokes, but there are also plenty of jokes in ASL in particular that don’t translate super well, so they’re really only funny in the language.
- Comment on New York police used stun gun on migrant holding toddler, video shows 8 months ago:
There are varying degrees of lethality. Some things kill nearly 100% of the time, while others kill less frequently.
Getting stabbed isn’t guaranteed to be lethal, but that doesn’t mean that knives are “less than lethal”. They’re still lethal.
- Comment on Why are mental hospitals run like prisons? 8 months ago:
Exactly this, if you can’t contribute to society as effectively then you have no worth
- Comment on Why are mental hospitals run like prisons? 8 months ago:
I was in a psychiatric hospital for like 6 months, but like a pretty nice place (I wasn’t institutionalized or anything, this was something I chose) and heard horror stories from some of the other patients there about those places. I’m so grateful that I never had to go through that…
I literally thought one of my friends had been exaggerating until we got a new patient and he had similar stories. Horrific stuff.
