- Comment on It's Time to Bring Back the Steam Machine 1 week ago:
What value do they have? They were just custom prebuilt PCs running a special version of Linux that weren’t that much cheaper than a non-Steam Machine PC. Nothing is stopping you from building a PC and installing the same OS running on the Deck and then calling it a Steam Machine.
- Comment on What are some mainstream game series where you really do need to start from the first game? 3 weeks ago:
Even if the stories don’t connect, I always would recommend starting at the earliest point in a series and moving forward, since this allows for a better appreciation of the evolution of the game over several iterations rather than being disappointed by the regression you would see going backwards or jumping around.

How about giving them a raise, asshole?
- Comment on Gearbox Publishing Rebrands as Arc Games After Embracer's Deal With Take-Two 5 weeks ago:
So this whole time I thought Gearbox made Remnant, when it was merely published by Gearbox. You’d think they have slightly different logos for the development studio vs their publishing branch.

If playing one game boosts creativity by a little bit, playing two games at once must boost it by a lot.

In how many of those spiritual successors is the computer a cheating bastard? 🤔

- Comment on Fairly Oddparents Gets a Sequel Series With Original Cosmo and Wanda Voice Actors Returning - IGN 2 months ago:
They didn’t reboot them as shows, but Invader Zim and Rocko’s Modern Life got some modern 90 minute features and they were very much made for the adults who grew up with the old shows.
- Comment on Twisters 2 months ago:
Are modern techniques and technologies still requiring people to drive directly into storms? I feel like safety is one of the things vastly improved in all that time, which might not make for a very action-packed movie.
- Comment on RANT : The thing i miss from reddit is that when a series or movie came out or ended there would be a big discussion threads. 3 months ago:
Another reason why the episodic format is superior to serialization.

- Comment on New ‘Star Trek’ Movie in the Works at Paramount from ‘Andor’ Director 4 months ago:
God yes. Not just with Trek but with everything. I am getting real sick of seeing so many original stories for things I am already intimately familiar with. Like, I know these are for new fans but still. There are so fucking many! There should be a proportional amount of fan service stuff for us existing fans, ya know?
With Trek specifically, I just want to see the TNG/Voy/DS9 era styling. I don’t necessarily want to see the same characters, but just have them referenced and still a part of the world’s history. The occasional cameo. Lower Decks gets it. Lower Decks feels specifically made for people like me.

There is an experiment that has been trying to receive a message before sending that message for a while now, unsuccessfully.

- Comment on Doesn't each community being local to each instance split the audience? 5 months ago:
It’s no different than Reddit with the exception that the main container for the posts isn’t a singular thing. There are many containers that can all contain the same posts simultaneously, and talk to each other to also share votes and comments.
This post isn’t on my instance, but I am able to see it, and comment all the same.

I’m not even bothering to watch the trailer because I already have decided to never buy anything from Rockstar again prior to this announcement.
- Comment on What is the point of individually wrapping cheese slices in plastic, only to cover a bunch of them in more plastic? 5 months ago:
There is a How It’s Made episode showing how Kraft singles are made somewhere. It’s still cheese, but they also add more milk to make it meltier, as well as things like preservatives. It’s kind of like a solidified bechamel.
Other brands of similar processed cheese slices tend to made entirely with oils with zero dairy. There is a definite difference in taste and texture comparing Kraft Singles, off-brand singles, and just plain cheddar though.
- Comment on What is the point of individually wrapping cheese slices in plastic, only to cover a bunch of them in more plastic? 5 months ago:
Do they not use milk to make Kraft singles in Australia the way they do in America? 🤔
- Comment on Steam Workshop Has added support for paid mods 5 months ago:
One or two egotistical modders don’t ruin the entire community unless those are the only modders in said community.
Greed ruins everything, though.

It may. Can you prove it doesn’t?

Black holes were thought to be only theoretical until we fucking found one.
- Comment on Isn’t the use of strict behaviorism to explain animals kind of obnoxious? 5 months ago:
The only trap here is that my point was that it’s not ignored by science. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. Just because we have no way of proving a theory, doesn’t mean we don’t try and find ways to do so. We still make hypotheses and theories even if we have no proven way, or understanding of how we might prove them. That’s still science.

- Comment on Isn’t the use of strict behaviorism to explain animals kind of obnoxious? 5 months ago:
Science does not care for your (or a mollusc’s) feelings. It cars about what’s the provable truth (except when the science is psychology or behavioral biology, then it cares very much about your or the mollusc’s feelings). So if it can’t be proven, science will ignore it.
Can you prove that you are sentient/sapient?
- Comment on Isn’t the use of strict behaviorism to explain animals kind of obnoxious? 5 months ago:
There are plants that can get “scared” and warn other plants of danger. Even plants that can uproot themselves and move if they feel threatened. They don’t even have nervous systems in any way that we understand and are capable of locomotion, sensing their surroundings and communication.
Even plants may have feelings.
