Buying games and playing games are different hobbies. On a similar note, I tried to buy System Shock (on GOG) just to be greeted by an “Already in your library” message.

Weeeell… not really. It’s pretty well settled mathematics that “cardinality” and “amount” happen to coinciden when it comes to finite sets and we use it interchangeably but that’s because we know they’re not the same thing. When speaking with the regular folk, saying “some infinities are bigger than others” is kinda misleading. Would be like saying “Did you know squares are circles?” and then constructing a metric space with the taxi metric. Sure it’s “true” but it’s still bullshit.
- Comment on IT'S A TRAP 5 days ago:
I know it seems intuitive but assuming that a property holds for n=infinity because it holds for all n<infinity would literally break math and it really doesn’t make much sense when you think about it more than a minute. Here’s an easy counterexample: n is finite.

At this point I’d take an opinion piece over whatever this is.

And here I was hoping this was some psychological study and not a dude ranting for paragraphs how he’s the most specialest one.

That sounds like a misconception based on the misconception that the Planck Distance is the smallest distance possible. Admittedly, I dropped out of physics 10 years ago so I might have no idea what I’m talking about.

About half the time and an easier addition? Metric wins again.

Depends on what is meant by “free gravel”, though. Given the effects of the other pills, it gives me the impression I can just summon gravel on command. In which case, I’d only have to pay for my own transportation.

I mean, sure, but that’d be like saying I’m pulling the earth towards me when I jump.
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 5 weeks ago:
Figured it out! It’s not hard. It’s actually quite easy. It just gives zero fucks about letting you know the level of the enemies or the areas where they are. I got a quest to gather some flowers at level 5 and was told they could be found in the outskirts of the city so I went south out of chance. Turns out that’s 20ish level area. Perhaps the same happened to you.

Dragon’s Dogma. WTF? Why did nobody tell me it was good? Why do people describe it as “hack and slash”? It’s a proper ARPG. Also, do I just suck or is it actually this hard?
