Pack mule romance. Love it.
- Comment on Video game romances need to evolve beyond lore dumps 1 day ago:
Romances are stupid shallow fluff that serve no purpose except to draw in lonely people. They’re idiotic and predatory.

DOS Shell?
- Comment on Mods recommendation for elden rings 4 days ago:
Play the game raw the first time. Just explore a lot and don’t get too frustrated from dying and losing all your runes. It will happen a lot. Just pick yourself up and try again.
I’d suggest heading south for your first playthrough when you make it to Limgrave instead of towards Stormveil Castle. You’ll get more experience and possibly some gear in some areas that are easier than stormveil for a new player.
- Comment on 15 degrees fahrenheit feels almost the same as 5 degrees. However 35 degrees feels WAY colder than 45 degrees. 4 days ago:
As a Mainer anything under like 5° C feels the same to me. The only difference is how much your snot freezes.
- Comment on The sun is a deadly laser... 5 days ago:
No because of the inflationary period the universe cooled tremendously fast since it expanded in size so dramatically. A few yottoseconds after the “bang” started the universe was a small sphere around 4x10-29 meters in diameter and expanded to a sphere of 9 meters diameter. The expansion lasted something like 10-35 seconds and supercooled the universe. This happened really soon after the hot big bang.

Not all motos are 4 stroke. My buddy rides a two stroke KTM and that thing cooks.
- Comment on Affluenza is really the biggest driver between thinking the barrio/ghetto/slums is an "unsafe wasteland" vs people who are just trying to exist and survive in the framework they are given. 5 days ago:
I currently live in Medellin, Colombia so don’t talk to me about dangerous places to live. I never said every place was safe. I said that the violent crime rates seem higher in poorer areas because of reporting and prosecution. It’s not because poor people are inherently more violent.
- Comment on Affluenza is really the biggest driver between thinking the barrio/ghetto/slums is an "unsafe wasteland" vs people who are just trying to exist and survive in the framework they are given. 5 days ago:
The violent crime rate is higher in poor areas because they’re more likely to be targeted by police and also less likely to have the prosecutor throw out the case.
- Comment on Truly identical twins as actors would present really interesting opportunities for a stage play 5 days ago:
Terminator 2 uses identical twins twice. Once when T1000 copies the cop drinking coffee and later when the T1000 copies Sarah Connor.
- Comment on Why are people disconnecting or destroying their Ring cameras? 5 days ago:
I hope what really gets people to pay attention is how the FBI said they searched that news ladies’ moms’ ring camera footage even though she didn’t have an active subscription.

Literally spain too. That whole Francoist Spain thing only ended in 1975.

That’s not intelligence in prey animals. Those are instinctual actions.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
A child won’t necessarily know how to filter the slop from actual correct info. At least in a forum you’ll more than likely have a bunch of voices stating the facts and a few stating untruths. Unless they’re asking for some arcane knowledge that only a dozen people on the planet understands they’re probably better off on a forum.

Couple problems with your theory. First, the roche limit will turn the earth into a rubble pile and/or ring system long before the earth is engulfed so it won’t be one piece when it is consumed. Second the surface and outer layers of the sun are plenty hot enough to melt rock and as soon as that happens the rock is probably just going to become part of the plasma making up the sun’s atmosphere.

Those are from the progenitor stars that formed the nebula that our sun formed from. Our star has never gone nova and never will.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
Billions? No. Try a googol (10100) or more years. The most massive galactic black holes will take at least that long to evaporate.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
The sun will turn into a red giant, then into a white dwarf surrounded by a planetary nebula. This will take billions of years. The white dwarf is basically the ash of a star. It’s a glowing remnant that no longer has nuclear fusion and so it’ll just glow for trillions of years until it becomes a cold lump of carbon. The inner solar system will most likely be wiped out during the red giant phase as the sun will expand tremendously in size eventually reaching somewhere between earth and mars’ orbit.

- Comment on Google Translate is vulnerable to prompt injection 1 week ago:
Google patches things like this very quickly. They have for decades. That’s probably why it doesn’t work for you since it’s been at least 8 hours since the original post.

- Comment on The world is trying to log off U.S. tech 2 weeks ago:
The loss of soft power can’t be reversed easily and especially not in the next presidency. Why would any sane country think this is a one off for us? Next election we might elect someone crazier for all they know.
- Comment on What is the definitive way to play certain games? 2 weeks ago:
I’ve been playing BG3 with a loot randomizer. It really makes you have to think about your builds because you can’t rely on certain gear anymore. Makes it almost feel like a roguelike.
- Comment on We could build a solar lazer with a ton of mirrors 2 weeks ago:
Laser light is collimated. Solar light is not since the sun is so close.

Thanks for linking it. He popped up in the algorithm for me so i couldn’t remember his name.
- Comment on The $100 Billion Megadeal Between OpenAI and Nvidia Is on Ice 2 weeks ago:
Maybe OpenAi shouldn’t commit trillions of dollars in capex when they only have 10s of billions in revenue.
But what do i know, i’m just a broke dipshit not a ceo.

Theres a video on youtube i saw once of a rock climbing guy who went to a grip strength competition. These guys were body builders and he shows up just like 65 kilos of wiry muscle. He set a new world record in his weight class.
So yeah i think we have seen what the human body is capable of. Not until everyone has leisure time to do what they want when they want we will see the true upper limit.
