I thought I would never surpass my 1600 hours in Factorio, but I reached 2200 in Satisfactory in half as many years of playing. No, I do not let either game idle, as I consider it cheating.

I think in the present climate, the majority of the high profile center-to-left people one would most want to see on the platform, could not afford to risk the social signal of posting there. Things are too polarized, and every move is a si

I’d say I have always been conspicuously amazing at learning in isolation, from written text alone. However, it is still the case that I learn even better in a room with other people and some direction. So I can understand why it helps peop

I want those people to feel those things too, but definitely not at the expense of Musk demonstrating petty hypocrisy and breaking his word. It would be enough anguish for them if they could no longer gang up and silence people, and they kn

First, it’s more like 1/6 his net worth. But I don’t believe the proportion means anything at that level of personal wealth. He’d still have the other $210B, plus ownership of Twitter. Each of those other billions is worth a billion do

The ability to do this depends on the will of private hosting providers and ISPs. It’s the same problem. It’s infeasible to maintain a site that permits all legal speech. It’s a constant legal battle and you’d better know a great lawyer who

Thank you for saying so. As an older American, it’s absolutely maddening and I feel exactly the same way, insofar as people taking it for granted.

Most games don’t contain what I’m looking for and don’t work for me. The ones that do work for me are very fun and engaging and occasionally actually awe inspiring. So I try to only play those. I’m almost never lacking for something great t

I’m a musician, composer, and occasional songwriter. I agree with this. I’d testify in court that this is not plagiarism or infringement in my opinion. Unfortunately people are suggestible. Tell them the melodies are the same, then play the

Reading this reminded me of PR speak. They know that we know it’s insincere horseshit. They also know that doesn’t make any difference to anything.

Putting on my visual artist and composer hats, I assert that all creativity is synthesis. When a listener finds one of my compositions surprising, it’s because they don’t know all the sources of the micro elements of the composition. But I

For this reason I don't say I've been playing piano for 40 years. I say I've been failing to practice piano for 40 years (and it shows).

Consider the phrasing: “So calling someone ‘pedo guy’ on Twitter once is Ok behavior?” You chose to unpack the facts in a direction chosen by you. A court of law unpacked it in a different direction. I call this Rhetorical Mischief.

I mean HZD. Haven’t gotten to HFW yet. I think the animation below the neck is subpar, but not the faces. On a hunch I checked Last of Us 2. To the best of my observation, the eyelids, circular muscles, and nostrils don’t micro-twitch, and

Horizon Zero Dawn has the best facial expressions I’ve seen yet. First I noticed the lip synching was very good. Then I noticed it also seemed to be doing procedural micro expressions as well as small eye saccades. Paired with subtle and ex

If you weren’t offended enough, many of those G-cup Megan Thee Stallion fans are self-admitted minors crying “stop sexualizing me! I’m a kid!” while they gyrate. I deleted TikTok shortly after I installed it. (Not just because of that. The
