- Comment on PC gamers spend 92% of their time on older games, oh and there are apparently 908 million of us now 2 weeks ago:
I’d say don’t yuck someone’s yum but I tried league of legends years ago and it’s why I avoid any game that makes me interact with strangers.

“I can fix him” might be the trope you’re looking for
- Comment on Japan auctions emergency rice reserves as prices soar 3 weeks ago:
mainichi.jp/english/articles/20240823/…/024000c
From just last year, this article says it’s not tourism, climate change, etc., but a domestic policy of limiting rice production to keep prices from crashing. It says if all of Japan’s usable land was used, Japan would produce more rice than India and export a bunch.

Changeling!
- Comment on Why aren't all rooms holodecks? 5 weeks ago:
Considering how often a single holodeck tries to take over the ship/kill its occupants/malfunctions, the fewer the better.

Yeah, so the only good that will come of it are the protest photos and videos.
- Comment on Can you guys recommend romance manga? 5 weeks ago:
I was thinking of how I found some of the ones I’ve really enjoyed recently. Mangadex has a decent filter system that can have inclusion and exclusion criteria, like must have ninjas but can’t have lolis. Image And the most important criteria of all: only showing ones that are completed. Some of us aren’t made to read things as they trickle out only to have them suddenly cancelled (looking at you, Dress up Darling).
I just use it to describe what I’m looking for and then sort the results by rating. That’s how I came across Alice-san Chi no Iroribata (others have mentioned it) and Ao no hana.
For ones not mentioned elsewhere:
Sono Koi wa Ichigo no Youni - Strawberries and farming and romance.
Insomniacs after school - I usually can’t stand a school setting, but really enjoyed this. Astronomy themed.
- Comment on Can you guys recommend romance manga? 5 weeks ago:
+1s for Alice-san and Ao no Hana. Both include some interesting stuff about open hearths and pottery, respectively.
- Comment on Can you guys recommend romance manga? 5 weeks ago:
Telework convinced me to brush up on my Japanese. I’ve really enjoyed the author’s work because adults communicate and actually have sex, so there’s so much less toxic behavior and false tension (read: padding) than in most of the other things I’ve read. Telework is also a single volume if OP wants a taste before diving into the longer series.

I like it, but I put a big pillow under my chest.
- Comment on no, someone making a “stupid question”, genuinely needing advice, or typing similar to a bad person is not always an alt or a troll 1 month ago:
It’s impossible to tell if someone is asking in good faith or not. Bad money drives out good and all coins are treated as shaved. It doesn’t matter if yours aren’t. There are too many people asking in bad faith. If you want to know something controversial, there are places you can find out without making somebody else do the same work that other resources already have done.

Always a good sign for upcoming projects. Be sure to get rid of the people that do facial animations!
- Comment on Why the Left needs to watch Star Trek: It has lessons for today's techno-optimists 2 months ago:
That’s why I couldn’t get into a lot of the newer Trek stuff. Older stuff felt aspirational, but the newer stuff did not.

So long enough for everybody to forget about it and then for GM to precede as usual.

Raymond: Bones.
Charlie: There’s a lot more than 82 bones, Ray.
Raymond: 246 total.
Charlie: How many?
Sally Dibbs: 250.
Charlie: Pretty close.
Sally Dibbs: There’s four left in the back.

Structure, security, fraternity, simplicity. There’s definitely some appeal there, but maybe there are easier ways to find those things.

If only they were worried about the log in their own eye and not the mote in their neighbor’s.

- Comment on The Joy is Gone: A Liberal Hate-Fest for the Holidays 3 months ago:
It seems the joy, bipartisanship, and civility have all expired like last year’s eggnog.
Remind me: was the January 6th insurrection bipartisan and civil? This another wants the same “rules for thee but not for me” as every other conservative asshole.

- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing? 3 months ago:
P5 ditches the procedurally generated dungeons, so each main dungeon feels different. There’s still a procedurally generated one to do side quests in, though.

Are you sure they’re the last few hours? There’s like half a dozen final dungeons.
