• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK about Darkpatterns.games, a website that rates mobile games on their "Dark patterns"⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I like the strategy most Terraria bosses go for: You always get something good, it just might not be exactly what you’d wanted in that exact moment, but the re-spec to use it effectively will be pretty easy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I hate how anything without "world" in its name is just about the US⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  My stab in the dark is 8. That feels about right

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wait a minute, we've been going about this all the wrong way!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s pretty effective when your attacker doesn’t want to harm innocents at any cost, at least. But most organizations going to war don’t care enough.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wait a minute, we've been going about this all the wrong way!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If my goal was to kill exclusively enemy combatants and leave all civilians alone, it would be pretty effective to round them up and gas them, yes. I’d rather do that than indiscriminate fire.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If malls continue to shut down and decay over the next twenty years, someone should turn them into retirement communities for GenX and Millennials.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s a mall near where I live that’s still pretty rad. I go there sometimes

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨what is with child names like Aiden, Braiden etc?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I work with two guys named Hunter and they’re very cool

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You can't spell "aggressive & hostile" without "asshole".⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  And you. can’t spell unfortunate without tuna. But not every problem is caused by canned fish.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do I get rid of my dead name in iPadOS settings?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It could also be, perhaps, someone’s given name before adoption gave them a new one. Or perhaps a meddling relative suggested a “better” name, and then the person went back to the one they were born with, leaving the relative’s name idea dead.

  It’s not trans-exclusive (I fall into the latter category I mentioned) but it’s definitely a mostly trans concept

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Get sorted...⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Animal abusers aren’t furries. Conflating them is unhealthy for both

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨death sentence⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Wow, deeply ironic that giphy took this gif down

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Holocaust Memorial Day Trust | The ten stages of genocide⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Disclaimer, I’m a third party to this argument.

  As far as I can see that’s a misunderstanding.

  If you’re a member of one of those groups [Palestinian, Israeli], who can’t sympathize with the other [Israeli, Palestinian]… e.g. IDF (Israelis who can’t sympathize with Palestinians), Hamas (Palestinians who can’t sympathize with Israelis)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Holocaust Memorial Day Trust | The ten stages of genocide⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It is truly magic⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I learned to drive in a town where the on ramp to the highway came out of a roundabout so I actually did some learning! :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is "Dear X" considered more formal than "To X" in e-mail/writing?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I do this but after the name of the recipient I drop a semicolon

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Considering that Pokemon are stored as computer files, tools like PKHeX probably exist in the Pokemon world too⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Starting in Let’s Go you can access the Box system from anywhere - and it’s called the Box Link. Unless the trainers all secretly cart off their pokemon to a mailbox while we aren’t looking with the menu in our way it’s probably digitizing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I knew it⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s not that Israel controls the US Gov’t - it’s that having them as an ally in the Middle East is so valuable that the government is willing to protect them even when they’re in the wrong

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mystical land pirates (with pizza)⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I live in an apartment complex where the only distinguisher between the two halves is street number, they share a name entirely and have the same numbers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ides of March⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It depends on which lightning, to be fair. “Lightning Bolt” is 8d6 (it’s my current character’s favorite spell)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #2904: Physics vs. Magic⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Imagine taking a line and rolling it around a circle so that it’s always touching. Like a wheel on a flat surface, but from the wheel’s perspective.

  Sine and cosine are the X and Y coordinates of the intersection point, and tangent is the slope of the line.

  You can also relate it back to acoustics!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  One of those choices is, itself, one of two choices. So it’s secretly three, but two of them look identical.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨“My next child could be retarded. So could yours.” Barbra Streisand for The National Association for Retarded Children (NARC) - Imgur⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes. But at the time it was on the euphemism treadmill, it was. And that’s the point being made.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is an average person living in the US supposed to do about corporations raising prices?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The ranting of fools has actually lost us quite a lot

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I think trump might win, and it's due to shitty memory and DND⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Objectively incorrect.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The essay presented here literally says “god wouldn’t it be cool if people on the internet were good people” and you’re lambasting the guy for having that opinion?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨An oldie but a goodie⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I think i recognize some context you’re missing.

  I feel like this is in response to an unsolicited ERP request from the left chatter, making it essentially proportionate.

  Now I can’t be certain but that is a common thing I’ve seen people do so it feels likely.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨5 feet apart = Not gay⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Then stop feeding them :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spotify re-invented the radio⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Just bought the Bejeweled 2 soundtrack - probably my favorite album ever

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon Musk Says He Might Put X/Twitter Behind A Paywall⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t get me wrong lmao I despise Elionnaire Husk. I just want to know exactly why, so if someone asks me, I have a good answer.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You know it, I know it, we all know it.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  honestly my favorites are a healthy mix of both.

  on the left we have Cryogonal, Dodrio, Zygarde and Whiscash.

  on the right we have Gardevoir, Lopunny, Goodra and Delphox.
