Someone has to be driving to make roadkill. It just makes sense to drive up your own roadkill, if you’re looking for some.
- Comment on Is there any way to search through all the games on Steam for titles that don't use the word "dystopian" anywhere in the description? 7 hours ago:
I’m doing a temperature check: name a game with good lore.
- Comment on Too dumb to understand where the gas tank opening is 2 days ago:
If you felt I was deeply convinced about that, then your reading comprehension needs finetuning.
But enough. I’m calling an end to this sour exchange. I would have been better served tickling my own toes or huffing farts than any of this unnecessary back-and-forth.
I’ve found you too abrasive to wish a “good one”, so “have a time, person.”
- Comment on Too dumb to understand where the gas tank opening is 2 days ago:
Yes. It was.
Which is why I’m questioning why I spent the time explaining something so simple to someone so obsessed with being correct about the side an old lady drove her car.
- Comment on Too dumb to understand where the gas tank opening is 2 days ago:
It’s a joke, mate.
The person driving does not understand rotation. If you also don’t understand rotation, then in the video she is in[on] the left side of the car (when facing the camera). And then, after driving around the pump, she exits and is on the right side of the car when facing the camera.
There. The joke is dead.
- Comment on Too dumb to understand where the gas tank opening is 2 days ago:
She does if you, also, don’t understand rotation. She’s in the left (of the car) and then on the right.

Don’t threaten them with a good time.

Good point! Have they checked these laboratory mice to make sure their genes haven’t been spliced?

I’ll give him a select list of hearts I want him to dance his way through.
Subtitle A: “The dancing just went from ‘dirty’ to ‘deadly’.”
Subtitle B: “Watch out, he’s changed his shoes.”

If you’re a cheater, it all makes sense.

A melondick is not the kinda dick you want
- Comment on This man is a parody of himself 2 months ago:
This always makes me laugh
- Comment on I love diablo-likes, but they're also really annoying. 2 months ago:
Not superhuman, just very simple. I pick what I want most at the moment, especially in a game where I can refund points if my decision wasn’t great.

I had to take another look to see if they’ve shat the tree up worse somehow. But, no, it’s the same. The tree isn’t complicated to read or even that hard to understand. It’s a tree: you start at the base and make decisions at the branches.
Perhaps it’s an extension of people getting paralyzed by decisions, which I don’t experience, but it’s only difficult if you are in the strange position of “knowing enough about the passive tree to know a build/specific passive exists” but also don’t know the tree enough to figure out how to get there.

I’m beginning to think companies are doing this to get people to leave by themselves

Are we eventually gonna get more fusion because billionaires are demanding more energy for their stupid projects?
Sure, knock yourselves out.

What?
I only remember the wave-based, tower defense main mod. What playground mode was there?

There have been a number of voxel shooter that have shipped lowkey since Minecraft that attempted to add block placement to the team v team ticket shooter, e.g. Ace of Spades.

What about Anthem?

I’m doing a mini, personal version called “having no money”.
- Comment on Amazon cloud boss echoes NVIDIA CEO on coding being dead in the water: "If you go forward 24 months from now, it's possible that most developers are not coding" 4 months ago:
Define “works”?
If you’re a CEO, cutting all your talent, enshittifying your product, and pocketing the difference in new, lower costs vs standard profits might be considered as “working”.
- Comment on "Now everyone will have an easy reference table at hand!" 4 months ago:
Oh, dreadfully sorry. Shall I…just stick my neck out here? Or is this going to be a trampling? Let me know.
- Comment on "Now everyone will have an easy reference table at hand!" 4 months ago:
No! Absolutely not! Are you trying to kill us all?!
- Comment on Amazon cloud boss echoes NVIDIA CEO on coding being dead in the water: "If you go forward 24 months from now, it's possible that most developers are not coding" 4 months ago:
If, 24 months from now, most people aren’t coding, it’ll be because people like him cut jobs to make a quicker buck. Or nickel.
- Comment on MBFC Credibility - High 4 months ago:
I never saw “pre-emptive” as an absolving term. You just decided to strike first: it’s relatively free from any connotations of propriety in my mind.
- Comment on Inflation? 4 months ago:
Sure, in the broad, capitalist sense, you can’t blame the company.
But, as just a collection of people, you can absolutely blame them. Saying that a company has no fault in deciding to use aggressive, manipulative methods to pull money out of people no matter what feels on the level of saying 'I couldn’t help myself, they should’ve stopped me from being terrible".
- Comment on I'm not a good liar but need to pretend I like my current job and not rant about how much I dislike it till I find a job I like more. How do I make my coworkers and supervisors believe this lie? 4 months ago:
…did you not read the post? They are planning to leave but they don’t want to get dumped before finding a new position.

Oh boy, can’t wait for modders to dress it up as various star wars speeders
- Comment on This founder had to train his AI not to rickroll people 4 months ago:
This is no direct smoke at you, but I don’t think doing decades old memes should form a core part of anything’s personality
- Comment on Dynamic pricing 4 months ago:
As the other guy said, lunch specials aren’t dynamic insofar as any pricing can be dynamic when the restaurant just changes prices willy-nilly. Which is what surge pricing is.
Lunch specials are a separate, generally static part of the menu. Like how using a coupon isn’t considered dynamic pricing for the times when you have a coupon on you.
