They will just train an AI from Trump’s brain so it can shrug these off like Wheatley

Why do people buy baguettes?
They taste amazing
Do they make sandwiches with them? How do you even make a sandwich from them?
Cut the baguette along the length. Cut in half. You now have 2 sandwiches

I’d take OG doom being bundled with the OS and forever pinned to the taskbar over whatever Windows has been doing with candy crush tbh
- Comment on Day 538 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 4 weeks ago:
I’m guessing they don’t have kids. Gaming is also my main hobby and I generally manage to play every day too, but not sure I could with kids
- Comment on Silent Hill decompilation just surpased 80% 1 month ago:
It’s literally the process of turning the executable back into actual code (albeit usually much less readable than the original code, since symbols are usually stripped from release builds, so the original variables and functions names are lost), so it can do much more than that.
Once you’ve fully decompiled something and understand the resulting code, or even some parts of it, you can basically edit the original source code.

As far as pieces of shit game execs go, he apparently was actually pretty nice, and did actually do some meaningful things (hell of an understatement imo)

Shit, I actually forgot about garlic bread. My Italian ancestors must be rolling in their graves. You’re right though, shallot and garlic are definitely in a different class than onions

I see you’re a man of culture as well

Them’s fighting words. Shallot > garlic > onion

Additionally, dumb legislators that are angry that their law is useless will probably turn to banning VPNs

He does have a perfect face for that. Lots of “texture” with wrinkles and all that, but still good looking imo (and expressive)
- Comment on Why does Helldivers 2 have such a bloated install size on PC? Old hard drives, says dev 3 months ago:
Not surprising for a UE4 game. Unreal engine’s pak files are notorious for not playing nice with steam’s update system, where making even really small changes to a game’s data can cause huge portions of the file to change (and thus have to be redownloaded). Especially when using pak file compression, which most games use because it drastically reduces loading times
- Comment on Turns out a relatively important plot point in The Witcher games shouldn't exist at all, so says the books' author 4 months ago:
Presumably the others all had very different medallions, possibly not always related to some animal. At least that’s the headcanon I had when reading the books
- Comment on In shower today: "I bet my YouTube account is older than most of the people on YouTube." ...Yes, yes it is. 5 months ago:
Maybe that’s when they also added the ability to subscribe to channels, making it actually useful to have one if you weren’t uploading videos ?
Idk, just spitballing, my own account is from 2009, because in 2006 my parents definitely didn’t have a broadband subscription, and Dailymotion was kinda superior to YouTube for a short time, so that’s where I usually went for a while.

Have you ever noticed Ron Pearlman looks just like Hellboy too ?
- Comment on NO! I don't want to download your app and set up an account. Leave me alone 6 months ago:
Eh, there are plenty of FOSS software that implement it just fine, but I know for a fact that the default image viewers of some major distros don’t

- Comment on Look Mum No Computer is a musical twin-stick shooter action-RPG that looks wild 6 months ago:
Looks really similar to an old-ass flash game I used to play that was based on the same premise (sans the musical part)
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
For sure, it’s nice with big monitors. But it’s not that important for smaller ones imo, like the 27" one I’ve been using for years. I’d say 30" and over it starts to really matter. I stand pretty close to mine so I don’t really feel the need for a huge monitor
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
Having tried it, I do think 120 fps feels a little smoother but I don’t think it’s worth the investment. 75 is already fine.
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
Imo 4k is overkill anyway, and chasing even 60 fps (not to mention 120 which seems to be the norm these days) at this resolution for current/“next” gen games is basically a scam from hardware manufacturers to get us to buy their overly expensive “gamer” grade shit.
Now I know it’s a bit of an extreme view in the gaming space, but imo this shit is not sustainable and doesn’t even bring that much to the table in terms of fidelity/enjoyment. 1440p works just fine and is much easier to work with, especially as your hardware gets older because fill rate really is a bitch with modern photorealistic games.

- Comment on Brave browser blocks Windows feature that takes screenshots of everything you do on your PC 6 months ago:
Also it’s not like windows routinely “forgets” these settings with updates. Or harasses you to opt in again with every update, in the hopes that one day you’ll let it slip

Oh so they’re just doing whatever Firefox is doing in private mode on Android that makes screenshots all black
- Comment on Microplastics will be the "boomers all have lead poisoning" of millennials 6 months ago:
IIRC the one thing we are sure of is that they don’t break down, nor do they get out. So you better hope they don’t do anything bad on top of that
