- Comment on The Outer Worlds 2 wants you to join the space police 3 hours ago:
I swear I can never read an article title referencing Outer Worlds 2 without reading Outer Wilds 2 and first having my heart stop and second wondering about the dramatic shift in game direction.

Yep, for me my first printer was a Prusa MK3S+. At the time it was definitely the sort of experience you just described, and I jumped on the Prusa Enclosure upgrade to enable ABS. But there were some maintenance frustrations nevertheless that prompted me to get a backup printer.
I went with an Ender 3 V2, and my god that gave me the whole “literally doesn’t work out of the box, buy this mandatory set of aftermarket upgrades and enjoy your continuous maintenance trap” experience.
Never again. I sold that and grabbed an X1C which became my main printer with the Prusa as the backup.
I totally appreciate the value of open source; Linux built my career and I’ve lived and breathed it and the OSS community for the better part of two decades. I also totally appreciate and respect folks who take joy in tinkering with and maintaining their hardware. I’m just not that guy anymore and I’ve transitioned into the “wanting things to just work” phase for most things.
To me, if we can have both closed source options and open source options competing and each surviving — to me similar to say MacOS and Linux — then everyone can benefit; there’s a solution for everyone.

A level headed take on Bambu identifying positives and negatives? I must be reading the wrong community.

Fixed. I need to review truth tables…
- Comment on Has a woman ever orgasmed by subwoofer? 2 days ago:
Very concerned for you.
But really, we have over 4 billion women alive right now, and you asked ever. The subwoofer was patented in 1964. Worked up some estimates that there have been 9-10 billion distinct humans alive since 1964, so that’s 4.5-5 billion women.
If at least one of them never did what you proposed I’ll eat my hat.
- Comment on ‘Even after 20 years, I still cry’: the enduring brilliance of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater 5 days ago:
Everyone reacts to different media differently so I don’t have trouble seeing this as in earnest. MGS3 has very strong moments IMO. For me it’s the likes of FFX that gets me still 25 years later, and there are others to be sure. Oh boy, Undertale though.
- Comment on Paying the Subnautica 2 team their promised bonus would be "embarrassing", Krafton's CEO allegedly told the game's chief over lunch 5 weeks ago:
The article also states that the founders had endeavored to distribute more of their share to the other employees, and this was a sticking point in Krafton’s attempt to walk back the original deal:
But the trio declined, claiming the amount was not “anything close to what they deserved, and did not allow them to share the earnout with the full team.””
Given this I don’t think we can fairly prejudge the trio — if they’d received the bonus and then reneged on their promise or made it a negligible amount then it’d be fair to judge them harshly.
- Comment on Rumor: Telltale Games Working With Influencers For The Wolf Among Us 2 Marketing Campaign 1 month ago:
Totally fair take, but for me I’m just excited for the prospect of more Wolf Among Us. Telltale had hits and misses but I definitely felt Wolf was among the former and I love to see stories finished like their Walking Dead series

“Simplifies”
Thumbnail: something decidedly not simple
