Who will?

Not my fav by any means, but I’ve really been enjoying the Kriegsfront Tactics demo this week.
- Comment on What are your favorite Tactical RPGs? 1 day ago:
Thanks for this rec, it looks delightful!
- Comment on Just be that way 2 days ago:
Surreal comedy is hardly random, it’s deliberately incongruous in ways that demonstrate a mastery of causal logic.

- Comment on Tunic is awesome and I wish more people talked about it 2 days ago:
Knowledge-gated progression perhaps.
I kind of enjoy the abstruse, tortured jargon of “metroidbrainia”, but I would never use it in a respectable conversation.

My partner and I had a habit of treating merges as teamwork. Driver focuses on front, copilot looks back/sideways, and driver implicitly trusts when copilot says “go”. We were pretty slick with our merges.
To equivocate, we have since relocated to a city with good enough public transit that we were able to ditch our car entirely. Life is definitely better this way.
- Comment on Seems like a good deal if you are in to that sort of thing 5 days ago:
If you’re good at something, never do it for free.
There’s definitely a demand issue in some cases, however.

Only a ~2% chance 4 years from now. And it’s an order of magnitude smaller than the one that hit Chicxulub. Yawn

We’re getting into the body positivity discourse of a century old photo of dudes dressed like Beetlejuice’s day at the beach, so it pretty much goes without saying that we could all do with a gasp of fresh air.
- Comment on Peak male form 1 week ago:
I’m all for a low bar on male attractiveness - handsome is as handsome does. But, these fellas look barely this side of healthy
- Comment on Peak male form 1 week ago:
Every one of them looks like Gollum’s uncle, what are you saying
- Comment on Steam Next Fest has started once again. What good demos have you found? 1 week ago:
I showed my kid the trailer for bits & bops and he literally did a gasp of delight. Thanks for that :)

You can’t change the machines, but try not to let them change you.

Is nobody safe from the O thief? This gooner… Is now a goner.
- Comment on TIL my decision to drive a 22' full cab pickup truck and vehemently oppose urban zoning reform makes me a defender of social justice, a warrior for the downtrodden, and more progressive than 99% [cont 1 week ago:
Don’t… Please don’t say it like that. We already had the stupidest sounding generation name.
I guess the devil shits on the biggest pile.

You paid that much for a watch that looks like you steal from your grandad?

For quality and training purposes of course 🙃

Damn it she’s asleep I’ll have to show her this one later. Hmm. “Hey babe, check it out they made a statue of you…”
- Comment on They don't get it. They think we are A holes. And they are right 2 weeks ago:
It’s important to have shared culture. Even if that culture is on par with the gut biome of a mung jumping aficionado

Counterpoint, let’s get up in arms and freak out about dictators way before they train a dog to rape us
- Comment on Oh really? 2 weeks ago:
I’ve always been unreasonably bothered by that
- Comment on If you are too young you really missed out being able to do this 2 weeks ago:
That’s crap. If you’re gonna give my kid a proper customizable soundboard so they can get creative with how they fuck with me at least that’s something. This is just lord of the flies conch shell shit
- Comment on Living a lie 2 weeks ago:
Such people make life worth living
- Comment on If you are too young you really missed out being able to do this 2 weeks ago:
I would love to have a soundboard that played sounds in calls. I’d answer the phone like Wolfman Jack all “caller, you’re on the air! gorilla noise, honk”
- Comment on What if you literally had all the money in the world? 2 weeks ago:
At that point people will just start keeping debt ledgers with each other and carry on without me. Other currencies would pop up. I’d have to spend at volume in every direction just to keep the money from becoming irrelevant.
- Comment on Had a take about Supergiant Games that recieved a lot of pushback fromy two longest running best friends. 2 weeks ago:
I really wanted to like it more because they made some really cool choices in the design of it. I can see why it didn’t sell well, but it should have at least been more influential
- Comment on MultiVersus officially closes down and is delisted today 2 weeks ago:
Hack the planet, indeed.
- Comment on Material scientist wet dream 2 weeks ago:
Density is certainly changeable in water with temperature, but density isn’t exactly the same thing as compression.
TIL A waterjet cutter pressurizes the water to something like 90,000 psi and it gets about 14% more dense. I always thought those things just had the water highly pressurised, but not actually compressed.
