- Comment on Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol.2 - Announce Trailer | PS5 Games 1 week ago:
I got a PS3 to play MGS4, and I found that even on there the performance wasn’t perfect. I’d love if this version ran flawlessly!
- Comment on UK | Oatly banned from using word ‘milk’ to label vegan drinks 1 week ago:
I don’t think there’s any need to come up with a better name if we have one that works perfectly well already. Maybe I’d be ok with something else, provided it was cooler than ‘spod’ :p
- Comment on UK | Oatly banned from using word ‘milk’ to label vegan drinks 1 week ago:
Peanut butter isn’t butter, but it’s called that because enough people agreed to call it so. It’s a useful way to referring to something that has similar properties. Likewise, if I ask for a coffee I’ll continue to ask for oat milk and not ‘oat drink’ as the latter sounds stupid.
- Comment on The only science fiction in 1984 by Orwell is that there is a drug that could make you "Happy" 1 month ago:
I agree, that’s a good way to put it
- Comment on The only science fiction in 1984 by Orwell is that there is a drug that could make you "Happy" 1 month ago:
Yes this. And is a drug that makes you happy really science fiction? There are plenty that work on dopamine, serotonin and oxytocin receptors. Though I suppose happiness is something more nebulous and complex than a handful of chemicals.
- Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 2 months ago:
Yes I think you’re right - there’s a lot of lead-up to christmas and it’s usually a time where you come together over a few days. Whereas NYE is one evening, and it doesn’t involve special food or presents etc. (just lots of booze)
- Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 2 months ago:
That’s a good point. I wonder if there are many songs dedicated to new year for people following those calendars?
- Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 2 months ago:
Ohh a good selection, thanks!
- Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 2 months ago:
Oh that’s interesting to hear! What new year’s songs do you know then?
- Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 2 months ago:
I’m from the UK. Whereabouts are you from, to have never heard a christmas song?
- Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 2 months ago:
That’s true, but you don’t really hear them being played once christmas is over
- Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 2 months ago:
Fireworks I guess?

- Comment on Had to look this up 2 months ago:
Oh that’s interesting! I hadn’t heard of that series, but I adored the Alex Rider books as a kid. Horowitz’s children’s books at least feel well written.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 months ago:
I think Red Faction still does a better job of it, because it blends the destruction and physics into one system. i.e. buildings will topple the second they become unstable, rather than only becoming a physics object once they’re fully separated.

Were there any more entries in his diary though? :o
- Comment on Uncle Ben should be alive in further adaptions in Spider-Man 3 months ago:
He should come back in an alternative universe as a 21-23 year old.
- Comment on We are not reading old public domain books because it's not profitable 4 months ago:
What? Some of the most well known and highly rated books are in the public domain.
- Comment on An eggy smell is horrible if it comes unexpectedly, but arguably pleasant if you're eating an egg mayo sandwich 4 months ago:
That’s a good point actually… whenever you see them in any UK supermarket it tends to just be egg mayo by itself (and always on brown bread for some reason). Or egg & cress like you say.
OR you might see an all day breakfast sandwich with egg mayo, sausage and bacon.
- Comment on An eggy smell is horrible if it comes unexpectedly, but arguably pleasant if you're eating an egg mayo sandwich 4 months ago:
One of these
In the UK at least, the filling is called egg mayonnaise. In the US/Canada it seems to be called egg salad

Oh that’s grim :(
I’ve definitely been put off coleslaw after a spoiled portion at a Topgolf place gave me food poisoning

How exactly does this protect farmers? Are they going to have to be called veggie cylinders and fake-meat discs?
