- Comment on The mental health industry is probably profiting a lot from political turmoil. 13 hours ago:
Absolutely, everything’s an opportunity!
- Comment on Microsoft seemingly just revealed that OpenAI lost $11.5B last quarter 1 day ago:
Why do you think AI is pushed so hard?
Everyone is aware this has to be useful. Too much money.
- Comment on When was the last time you actually laughed while playing a game? 4 days ago:
I know. /Harrison Ford smirk
- Comment on When was the last time you actually laughed while playing a game? 4 days ago:
Yeah that was nice. The whole game was nice albeit too much promise and left far behind by any uncharted (>1) which came long before.
That at a premium price is too little. (not saying anyone should share this highly. Subjective opinion!)
But that’s not the point I was teing to make. I literally laughed at that typical Bethesda T-pose.
- Comment on When was the last time you actually laughed while playing a game? 4 days ago:
Indiana Jones and the great circle: npc walking around on Gizeh and the clothes of one being in T-pose.
Oh, Bethesda.
- Comment on I'm so goddamn sick of this fat, orange, narcissistic asshole and I will celebrate when he dies 5 days ago:
Ah, I see, thanks!
- Comment on I'm so goddamn sick of this fat, orange, narcissistic asshole and I will celebrate when he dies 5 days ago:
Me, what?
I was just calling out Vance since he might well be WAY worse than trump if given the chance and the heritage foundation as driver in the back; the tech bros as people helping them since they see goals align.
- Comment on I'm so goddamn sick of this fat, orange, narcissistic asshole and I will celebrate when he dies 6 days ago:
What about Peter Thiel?
What about Vance and the whole heritage foundation?
- Comment on Which game would you erase from your memory, in order to experience it fresh once again? 1 week ago:
Apologies, thats just the way I understand it. 99% will understand it as intended, I’m with the 1% 😁
- Comment on Which game would you erase from your memory, in order to experience it fresh once again? 1 week ago:
None. Every game was a product of its time, hence bound to many external factors.
Let it go… And take the chance to experience what you haven’t yet, there’s more to do, than can ever be done.
(on a roll with 2 Disney references, apologies)
- Comment on Have you ever been shown the "clarity"? 2 weeks ago:
Ah, I think I know. Too bad there’s no PMs here.
Anyhow, best of luck!
- Comment on Have you ever been shown the "clarity"? 2 weeks ago:
OK, I also don’t want to scare you with some random internet guys possible explanation!
- Comment on Have you ever been shown the "clarity"? 2 weeks ago:
What you describe really sounds like a mental thing achieved through drugs, biological issues or things like meditation.
Although it seems like a really good thing and you thrive to regain that state I would warn for two reasons:
One, I would say to be wary of the experiences you gain as those do not seem to be normal and hence could result in misleading or wrong information you think to have gained.
The other is more dire. I would recommend to get that checked. I know in the US it’s possibly impossible but in case you’re European I would visit a neurologist and maybe get a head MRT.
- Comment on We'll be seeing an uptick in UFO sightings soon 2 weeks ago:
I thought this was going to be about Musks bazillion satellites where each day a few fall down to earth.
- Comment on There is a key difference between walkable and car dependent living: 2 weeks ago:
The winter here is no less disappointing 😁
- Comment on German state replaces Microsoft Exchange and Outlook with open-source email 2 weeks ago:
That’s fair - let’s say since industrialization. But you’re right, it’s few people whatever the current implementation is (monarchy, oligarchy…)
- Comment on German state replaces Microsoft Exchange and Outlook with open-source email 2 weeks ago:
Of course I remember. There is no too big to fail, too.
But that does not mean it’s not getting replaced by another one. That’s also a pattern. Or maybe the meta game changes, someone else has money and invests and holds a lot of smaller players. Still.
For docker it would be Kubernetes and that’s Google.
- Comment on German state replaces Microsoft Exchange and Outlook with open-source email 2 weeks ago:
As much as I would love that, will never happen.
- Comment on German state replaces Microsoft Exchange and Outlook with open-source email 2 weeks ago:
Monopoly always wins.
- Comment on German state replaces Microsoft Exchange and Outlook with open-source email 2 weeks ago:
It’s one German state. Nevertheless, better than none. Sadly, for instance, Munich moved away from Linux to Microsoft in 2017 (end of project limux). Did I mention Microsoft has a location there?
- Comment on Tesla's Full Self-Driving software under investigation after railroad incidents 2 weeks ago:
I still personally know multiple people who still think those are awesome cars.
They’re otherwise educated, intelligent people!
I really don’t comprehend.
- Comment on Any advice for me a guy turning 18 yo old?? 2 weeks ago:
Non withstanding there can be fundamental differences which no one tells you about (like neurodivergency) so if something feels very off, it might be.
- Comment on Any advice for me a guy turning 18 yo old?? 2 weeks ago:
Everybody else is just faking it, too.
- Comment on Aight. Let's be honest. How many of you dress for yourselves, and how many dress for others? 2 weeks ago:
Fuck others, I need to be comfortable.
Am Neurodivergent.
- Comment on 15,000 Retro Gamers Voted And Chose The Best Retro Handheld Of All Time 2 weeks ago:
Interesting, thank you!
Since I’m no Zelda fan there was no pain there (although I collected the games for my collection). I have fond memories of all 3 DS Castlevania games.
I do recall the tacked on stylus rune crap but that didn’t leave any lasting impression. Still, I agree!
Prime hunters as well as Mario 64 have crap control, full stop. At that point I’m even more angry at the 3DS for getting analogue control (with ‘new’) and then not using it! (kid icarus)
Anyhow, thank you for elaborating.
- Comment on 15,000 Retro Gamers Voted And Chose The Best Retro Handheld Of All Time 2 weeks ago:
Thanks for explaining!
I felt the same way about the Wii. Several games that would be great are almost unplayable for be because of this and at the least unenjoyable which defeats the purpose.
So Wii… Yeah. At that time I always feared Nintendos next gimmick.
But why the DS? I thought there are enough games that are not gimmicky annoying.
Without going into too much detail I would be interested in examples (and possibly go ‘hey yeah that was bad!’).

Seconded

Thanks, you put it better than I can.
- Comment on 15,000 Retro Gamers Voted And Chose The Best Retro Handheld Of All Time 2 weeks ago:
Hm, I don’t like getting laughed at but still apologies for the misunderstanding. Would love to show you my collection 🤷
- Comment on We interrupt your happiness to bring you this special message from our sponsors 3 weeks ago:
Well but those running along also being really harmful are a lot in numbers and not any better… Sometimes (in part involuntary, but still!) worse.
