Nothing against you, but especially the last paragraph reads like the stuff I remember being said about a certain richest man in the world back then.

That’s what you normally do with chain shot. Unless that was the joke, of course.

Oh, good to know. Thanks! I probably stopped playing right before that happened.
- Comment on Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster 1 week ago:
Thing is, the cannon ball IS the pressure valve. And since one of them will invariably go faster than the other one, the whole thing will be even less unpredictable with one half of the chain still in the barrel

Will they release the characters for everyone or continue with the silly charade?
- Comment on Day 560 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 2 weeks ago:
Oh my, so much (accidental) foreshadowing in your post. I hope you enjoy the ride, our cult ended up with some rather … debatable ethics despite never indulging much in the more perverse and outright evil practices.

Fuck that guy, but: Former heroin addict sounds respectable.
- Comment on Lab anxiety 2 weeks ago:
It took me a second to see your angle. I gotta say tho’, I have felt this way many times and I will continue to do so. To someone from the field, it is quite relatable. I assume it is also intended in such a way.
- Comment on Most mouse pointers designs assume right-handed users 3 weeks ago:
I was going to say, I remember Win7 having not just mutliple options but also a left-handed version. I would be surprised if DE’s like KDE don’t.
- Comment on Is Winnie the Pooh considered "racist" now or are .ml folks using it as an excuse to defend Xi Jin Ping? 4 weeks ago:
Minor nitpick: Why would they try to make America Chinese again?
- Comment on Ubisoft Closes Canadian Studio After It Unionizes 5 weeks ago:
Carfule question: Could it be that the reason the workes unionised is the same reason as to why Ubisoft closed it down?
If things were looking bad, it makes sense to unionise. if Ubisoft was going to shut down sooner or later anyway, might as well do it when the studio votes to unionise, as closing it down later would only become more difficult.
- Comment on GTA's Ned Luke gets swatted for the 8th time while streaming with Red Dead's Rob Wiethoff: "there's so many douchebags out there, Rob" 5 weeks ago:
Which would be pretty dumb if something actually happened there.
If someone prank calls the police around here they get a (pretty hefty) fine. Other than that, not much will happen. Police will still show up, they will (usually) still take you seriously, they have to.
- Comment on Well, it’s funny if you can read Egyptian signs! 2 months ago:
I think it was due to someone gossiping about that, but yeah that’s the only unpleasent background I could find in that article. The paragraph even ends on a positive note.
I just dislike it if people throw around a source as an argument without constructing their argument.
- Comment on Well, it’s funny if you can read Egyptian signs! 2 months ago:
I have read it and it is not clear to me what exactly you wish to say.
Now, personally I don’t care but if you were to elaborate on what you mean I would read and maybe understand your argument.

I get that you were joking, but maybe don’t equate these two. Anyhoo, have a good day!

- Comment on Travelling through space using the Sun as a Fuel 5 months ago:
Hm, there is the Bowl of Heaven series by Gregory Benford and Larry Niven, which utilises a similar concept. I think you will have to read quite far until the concept is explained, but it’s been a while.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 months ago:
I fully agree, but I think this is the wrong community. There is a subtle not-so-great meaning to posting this as a shitpost which you might have missed.

I am aware, but it still looks very unsettling. The fake colour actually makes it worse I think, because I have seen plenty similar pictures in gray scale

Thanks, I hate it. Not because of the hole, but because of how unhealthy the skin looks in this picture.
