- Comment on What game sequel ruined a beloved franchise or character for you? 1 day ago:
Hal0 4 and Below Zero come to mind. Facebook buying beatsaber and ruining it with their filthy little hands, too. It took a huge nosedive in quality.
- Comment on Pebble is officially Pebble again 1 week ago:
I want a watch that isn’t a pain in the ass to set alarms, timers, timezones, etc. I also want 24H time and many days of battery life.
That’s why I’m getting it. It will be nice for cooking and work, haha.
- Comment on Pebble is officially Pebble again 1 week ago:
It should be. Once it’s out.

If it’s any consolation, I’m sure the American versions (Focus on the family, alliance defending freedom) are right there with them.
Props to them for figuring out a real way of imposing colonialism on impoverished countries and former colonies alike. Now their ideas and laws are spreading worldwide, like someone with diseases shitting into the local water supply. Ugh.
I have a terrible feeling that the people they duped won’t figure this out for 30 years or more, with some trappings lasting for 50+ years.

I’m so sick of this. What if we don’t want saving? Just fuck off.
I’ve got friends in both places, and I highly doubt God is gonna give you extra karma or brownie points for converting someone to a made up religion that’s like, maybe 200 years old, lol.
Go gardening. Volunteer at a big cat rescue place. Stop wasting your life preaching something that deep down, you probably don’t even believe in, but is distracting you from something else in your life that could be resolved with therapy.
- Comment on First they came for steam, then they came for itch.io . 1 week ago:
They cannot help it. They literally think about it all the time, and there’s no helping people like collective shout or the crazies on the street. The unwashed ones with the “you’re going to hell for gay sex” signs.
I see the same people on the street all the time. And they think about it WAY more than I do, and I’m married to a person of the same goddamn sex, lol.
Some people really need to cut loose. Generally, I’m not pro-drugs, but damn, they need some hard party drugs to reset things and help them get back to a normal life. Go to burning man, get a good job, then go hike the Appalachian trail or something, for Christ sake.
- Comment on Itch.io apologise for "frustration and confusion" after delisting thousands of NSFW projects 1 week ago:
This one was the Australians. Collective Shout did that, a fucking crazy org if you look into their past. Murdoch was the virus that infected the world, though. Most Aussies are great people, but damn, their evil people really plumb the depths.

Don’t you just love people that can’t mind their own fucking business?
- Comment on First they came for steam, then they came for itch.io . 1 week ago:
Damn, Rupert Murdoch and now this asshole. Australia has a monopoly on ruining media, lol.
- Comment on What are your favorite apps for public transit and bike navigation? 2 weeks ago:
Transit is pretty good for turn by turn on bikes!
- Comment on Steam is cracking down on porn games, to keep Payment Processors happy. 2 weeks ago:
This is so annoying. Even though I’m not a fan of porn games on the whole, it is extremely irritating that payment systems can decide how and when you can spend your own fucking money. We’re not seven, anymore. We can take care of ourselves.
It smacks of the idiotic “babyproofing” of clearly adult spaces everywhere except bars, these days. Antiquated moral panics, just like 1954’s lavender scare all over again.
- Comment on How come nobody does anything about North Korea? 2 weeks ago:
Certified hood classic.
- Comment on Nvidia’s CEO says the US should ‘reduce’ dependency on other countries and onshore technology manufacturing 3 weeks ago:
Not going to happen with that idiot in office. He cut basically all manufacturing initiatives.
- Comment on How come nobody does anything about North Korea? 3 weeks ago:
Plus, they occasionally release pretty decent music
- Comment on How come nobody does anything about North Korea? 3 weeks ago:
Nobody wants to do that. North Korea is a shithole-class country that hates SK, is propped up by China, and to a lesser extent, Russia, who basically use them as slave labor and cannon fodder for their illegal war in Ukraine.
While NATO could easily steamroll NK, SK is right there and would get heavily damaged in a war. And then SK would probably have to take care of a ton of starving, brainwashed, uneducated people and a bombed flat country. Nobody wants to fix them, and superpowers like China are actively working against peaceful initiatives like reunification.
It’s an injustice for the world, but there’s much bigger fish to fry on the world stage right now. Existential, extinction-class threats like climate change and nuclear war. Democracies fighting tooth and nail against totalitarianism, like Ukraine. And western countries in various fights against the predictable but extremely annoying rise in fascism.

They’re smoking symbiotes.
- Comment on What are your favorite apps for public transit and bike navigation? 3 weeks ago:
We used Google maps today, but it put us on an actual stroad with sharrows. Five lane, 35 mph road. We uncomfortably rode on the sidewalk. On the way back, our group noticed that there was a large bike lane on the other side of the road that Google didn’t use, and that it kept us on car lanes, not safer power center parking lots and all that.
Somewhat disheartening, unfortunately. :/
- Comment on Fear of 'being cringe' blamed for lack of dancing on nightclub dance floors 3 weeks ago:
People definitely dance here, but I’m usually going to gay bars or weddings. I support stickers over cameras, too. If you are going out with friends, you might as well have a good time rather than just being buried in your phone all night.
- Comment on Pop it in your calendars 3 weeks ago:
The original Subnautica is worth playing, it’s a fantastic game with an interesting world, intriguing story, and actually fun gameplay and vehicles. The vehicles themselves are extremely fun, too.

I miss the worm lights. My cousin had one, and even though I had the Advance SP, I thought the worm LED was super neat.

Black mesa is worth it, full price. I played both the OG and black mesa back to back. Fantastic game!
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
I met some nice people, but had better luck just meeting people naturally in my 20s. I think the reason why dating apps didn’t work is that it’s kinda like job apps online, where there’s just waves of people, and everyone is just kinda putting their resume on their profile. Hard to stand out and meet “real” people among bots/hidden likes/ app design/bad matches.
Usually these companies make money by having users churn through loads of bad matches and then continually pay for premium.
I’d recommend joining a club IRL or volunteering, it might be a more organic fit. Friends -> dating can come naturally out of that.

Everyone was telling me that this time they would have fixed it. Called it. I think I’m down to one joycon that doesn’t drift :P

Are there better alternatives? I was planning on using tailscale until now. :P

Looks intriguing!
- Comment on Subnautica 2 will have a bigger map and a silent protagonist, say devs 1 month ago:
Thank God for a silent protagonist. BZ is the game that made me realize why games have silent protagonists. Nobody would shut the hell up, I even turned off voice tracks.
- Comment on Whatever happened to cheap eReaders? 2 months ago:
I use my job with library books fairly often, though the waiting list is sometimes 6-8 weeks for popular titles.
