I'm just hoping for a new Riddick game. Escape from Butcher Bay was amazing.

Buy a cheap ice cream maker and make your own with lactose-free dairy! It's surprisingly easy.

If I tell you I'm your god and you should give me all your money or you won't go to heaven, you will rightly call me a liar, even though you can't really prove that I'm not.

You won't say "oh I guess there's no way to prove he's not god, so I'd better give him my money".

In science, the default stance on something existing is that it doesn't, unless there's solid proof, or at least a compelling scientific theory suggesting that it does.

You first start spreading, then you start feeling ill - about 2-3 days later. If you left your home within 2 days before noticing symptoms, you've been spreading covid.

So online meetings are less taxing on the brain than in-person. How is that a bad thing?

You want a better Twitter? It's already here and it's called Mastodon.

I'll be the first to say that I only begrudgingly accept Steam exists. However, I avoid using it and vastly prefer GOG due to the DRM-free nature of their store and the offline installers.

Just because the hate on Epic is vocal does not mean that everyone likes the Steam status quo.

When will it release on GOG?

Oh, Russia is winning this war? Is that why it didn't end in their estimated 3 days? Is that why Prigozhin marched on the Kremlin? Is that why they're asking North Korea for weapons now?

So much winning.

That's not at all "what we usually do". Most people don't have time to cherry pick articles and post them to "widen the picture", nor should they.

Context is important and so is being aware of bad actors trying to alter public perception.

You're trying to skew this into something that's wrong, but it's not.

"6 9s"

IIRC from the original report, the claim here is that even "gaming" these metrics leads to the desired result, as you can't game these metrics without actually improving your processes. I tend to agree.
