Before you fantasize how this could be used in humans in the future, producing that single thought cost more energy than leaf sheep produce via photosynthesis in their lifetime - feeding of it requires energy efficiency any warm-blooded animal just isn’t suited for.
Still cute though.

I have no reason to believe Germany’s government condemns Israel’s actions right now, and the way they always point out its right to defend itself, I suspect they actively condone them…
- Comment on It's been 30 years and I still can't get over the fact that the French word for "potatoes" is "ground apples." Have The French never had an apple? 4 weeks ago:
Let the language without sin cast the first stone.
- Comment on Why is the community for Honkai Star Rail and Genshin Impact like this? 2 months ago:
Why would you read this very specific list of games and think I was earnest?
Tomb raider had infinitely many rumours about a nude-cheat because boys were so thirsting about Lara Croft, while Metroid and Shantae reward fast playthroughs with bikini pics.
- Comment on Why is the community for Honkai Star Rail and Genshin Impact like this? 2 months ago:
Man, am I glad I grew up with less horny games. Like Tomb raider, Metroid or Shantae.
The real reason is probably that we said comparable stuff, just as whispers and not written in an anonymous forum. And we weren’t even egged on by forum culture or our games to be as horny as possible, the former drives engagement while the ladder drives sales.
- Comment on RuneScape is increasing their membership price by 50%, and Reddit is trying to censor it 2 months ago:
By “read the post”, I assume they mean “read the 2nd sentence”.
The increases range from 20% to 56% in price depending on currency.
Sure, to verify this claim would take a bit more work. But the comment in question was just “14$ is not 50% more”.
The more appropriate thing to point out is that the increase in US $ is just 16%, anyway. - Comment on Recommendation engine: Downvote any game you've heard of before 2 months ago:
Underhero is a RPG. There is (bad) 2D platforming and an interesting blend between turn based and real time battles with decent amount of player expression, but I find most interesting the writing and scenarios you will find yourself in during the game. You play as an Underling after the Hero has an unfortunate accident after all, and while technically a silent protagonist, all entries in the journal/hint system/to-do list are just brimming with personality.
I swear I first saw this game in list of “Paper Mario-likes”, but I can’t find a single video with that topic that mentions it, and now I realize that it only has like 600 reviews on steam.
- Comment on A unique aquaponics system to produce more fish and vegetables with less energy 2 months ago:
I don’t think this is applicable to backyard aquaponics. You don’t want to include an anaerobic digestion plant in your backyard project.
Either you have no use for the Bio-Gas, or you use more than 10kg of fish can produce.

I like your funny words, magic man!
- Comment on What games popularized certain mechanics? 2 months ago:
Im pretty sure the actual, physical Trading card games like MtG and Pokemon gave us all these games with card mechanics in the late 90s/early 2000s.
Culdcept (1997), Baiten Kaitos (2003), Kingdom Hearts - Chain of Memories (2004). Then the card games weren’t as popular for a bit, then the digital ones died out.
And then Blizzard released Hearthstone in 2014. I haven’t played the other ones to know for sure, but I believe Yu-Gi-Oh Master duels crafting system can directly trace it’s roots to it. Trade cards for dust of a specific rarity, dust from 3 can form a new card, Shiny cards give enough dust on their own for any card, etc. .

Always in favor of taking power from mods that they can abuse and simply do not need.
The 1 “You think you can come into MY instance, and downvote ME?” post I read was 1 too many.
- Comment on He really wants to kill that platform lol 3 months ago:
Mistranslation of the German Idiom “(etwas) aus dem Boden Stampfen”, to create (something) from nothing (lit. to stomp (something) out of the ground).
Easy mistake for bilinguals to make, I was convinced it was an English Idiom as well until I looked it up.

“Who here plans on driving their car today? Show of hands!” … “I recommend getting to know these people, because you are far more likely to die in an car accident caused by a stranger than by someone you know. But also don’t upset them, as you are far more likely to be murdered by someone you know rather than a stranger.”

Super Meat Boy’s OST slaps. I decided to check it out after realizing it was from the same guy that made Crypt of the Necrodancers OST.
I then spent hours trying to figure out where I’ve heard “Hot Damned” before. It was Siivagunner.

Actually, it was the train that has come the long way.
It just looks like you’re moving when you focus on the train, but you are in fact standing still while train spotting.
- Comment on Is there any real physical proof that Jesus christ ever existed? 4 months ago:
No, there’s barely any physical evidence that anyone a few hundred years ago existed.
But if writing is enough, there are some. Tacitus basically said: “Nero blamed the Christians, followers of that Guy called Jesus that Pilatus executed a few decades ago.”
Wikipedia at least says both his Baptism and crucifixion are not disputed by historians.
