- Comment on Slapping Chicken 2 months ago:
Lol i dont know the math but the speed required to apply that force means theres a sonic boom as well right? Along with the bubblewrap crack of your arm shattering in the process of somehow applying this force/acceleration. I actually wonder if there would be heat before the slap since the distance traveled is so short. Is there enough air between your windup and the chicken?

- Comment on We Got You 2 months ago:
I know from first hand experience you can’t do it by accident as one time, hung over and showering in the dark in the early morning i got a little dizzy and sat down.
Perfectly meeting my starfish to the shampoo bottle on the floor. It could not have been more on target had i attempted this.
I shot up, seeing stars like for real for only the second time in my life. I wasnt dizzy, I was up and attem’ baby. Wooo what a rush! Hurt a lot for a minute. I don’t think that bottle tip made it a millimeter into my pooper.
So yeah, impressible
- Comment on Netease gloatingly note that Overwatch-like Marvel Rivals won't make you unlock heroes, unlike Overwatch 2 2 months ago:
Right? And the body of this piece, which hurt to read, doesn’t mention any actual gloating from the developer that i could see. Though i admit i only skimmed it since the thing reads like a (bad) internet comment.
I miss kieron and the crew

- Comment on Drunken woman defecated on police officer who tried to put her in handcuffs 2 months ago:
, the officer said she was “outraged” by the incident on June 17 and said neither police or witnesses should have to face such behaviour. “I do not come to work to be assaulted,” she said.
What do you come to work for? The docking *accolades"?
Sit on a drunk, get shit on by drunk. I don’t know why officers of the law expect deference from the people they enforce it upon. Don’t they teach human nature? Even people who “like” cops/authority only like em until they are opposing them in any way.

Ah so he broke his own record. He must’ve done it for the love of the game, cuz i am fairly confident this record will never be broken. What a guy

- Comment on Steam says those hours you time criminals put in during advanced access now count toward the refund allowance 6 months ago:
I get you there, and i would love to hear your experiences on an early access game(s). Was it fun to be part of the process?
But I’m talking more about AAA releases and how so, so many of them come out as unfinished messes at worst, (Batman, no man’s sky) or at best, long wait times and crashing connections. Even if the game is fantastic on release (say witcher 3? Elden ring?) I know they had problems too) it will have DLC, and if the game is good, i want that too.
But enough about me, i would actually like to hear what i asked earlier
- Comment on Steam says those hours you time criminals put in during advanced access now count toward the refund allowance 6 months ago:
Good. I mean i hope it’s good. Hopefully this deters people from pre-orders and early access, which then reduces the amount of unfinished shit games being released.
Ive been a “GOTY only” gamer for years. I don’t consider a game as “out” until theyve been released for a few months. I’m not super cool or anything, just very careful with my money and i personally capital letter HATE the concept of early access

(Jesus, you’d think I was high or something. Just riffing.)
I am, maybe that’s why I made it all the way down here ;).
Might there actually be utility to something like this? Scrunch the spheres together but make invisible everything that is not an interface and label the faces accordingly.
What if the labels of the faces on the 3D (pressure points or interfaces) were like things that kept the ‘soap bubbles’ from merging? Like for example: material conditions of watchers of MSM being kept from understanding how they are similar.
Is that what you were thinking?
- Comment on US sets policy to seize patents of government-funded drugs if price deemed too high 11 months ago:
Surely youre right, because the answer of whether they are too high is ‘yes’ for every drug sold in the us.
I guess I’m interested in how they are using it, if at all. If Biden plans on reducing 'scrips in time for the election it could help pump his numbers up i guess? I’m just spitballing, cuz i can’t see how it’s gonna be used. i am too cynical after all these years to believe the poor get any breaks.

Maaan i wish there was some more info on what the white house ‘believes’ is expensive, cuz this policy could be amazing or useless entirely upon that question mark
