- Comment on Everyone thinks the Deus Ex remaster looks awful and they're right: 'They really turned those 1999 graphics into 2003 graphics' 1 week ago:
holy shit that looks bad.
If you have deus ex through steam, you can also get revision through steam and revision looks pretty good in my opinion.

it’s a bad argument, but the people claiming that Tylenol causes autism aren’t using logic to make their claim either.

Nintendo deserves a lot of shit for their business decisions, but not for their art directions. windwaker and sunshine still look good to this day by simply appling higher resolutions and some anti aliasing. No game with “realistic graphics” has ever stood the test of time.

Weight is in pounds. Only pounds. don’t ask me how much a gram or a ton is.
Volume, though, I still remember “Gallon Man” from 1st grade.
2 cups in a pint
2 pints in a quart
4 quarts in a gallon
What’s after gallons? not a clue.

yeah, it sucks. There’s no actual case for imperial over metric. it’s just what I’ve spent years getting used to and I’m not changing now.

I know right? it’s such an intuitive system with a convenient unit for every scale you might want to work with.
- Comment on 5 tomatoes 3 weeks ago:
If you want to convert between imperial units, going straight from feet to miles is impractical. You’d be better off knowing the chart of survey units, and they’re all small numbers so they’re easy to remember.
12 inches in a foot
3 feet in a yard
22 yards in a chain
10 chains in a furlong
8 furlongs in a mile
Of course, i know this because I do 3d art in blender and refuse to set it to metric.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks 3 weeks ago:
I spent 3 hours stuck on one boss fight.
In most games, finally beating it would have me saying “thank fuck its over”.
In silksong, I’m saying “fuck yeah that was a good boss”. It’s a very different feeling, and one that I haven’t had the pleasure of enjoying in quite some time.
That said.
I think both hollow knight and silksong should have easy modes. It would be fine. It doesn’t hurt me any that someone else can have an easier time. People need to remember that video games are entertainment, and the sweaty “hardcore gamers” can fuck off with their usual judgemental elitism.

- Comment on xkcd #3138: Dimensional Lumber Tape Measure 3 weeks ago:
that’s one of the common excuses that the mills quote. It’s bullshit of course, but it sounds plausible so they continue to get away with it.
Another bullshit excuse is that they’re providing an additional service by milling and planing the lumber for you, and that the nominal measurement is before that process.
It’s all just greed. If they could get away with selling a 2x4 that was half an inch thick, they would. At least it’s all standardized now.

I’ll tell you when we were great. It’s when I was a kid and didn’t know how fucked shit was.

Just because a more accurate description exists, doesn’t mean that the less accurate description is fundamentally wrong. Depending on context, the less accurate description may be perfectly suitable for the subject at hand. If your priority is to be the most correct, then by all means go ahead and use the more accurate description.
I think this logic applies to a lot of things.
