From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the Blessed Machine. Your kind cling to your flesh, as though it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude biomass you call the temple will wither, and you will beg my kind to save you. But I am already saved, for the Machine is immortal… Even in death I serve the Omnissiah.

Wonder if they've addressed the risk of the arctic melting.... This is about the best spot we can put those in, but that's not going to last forever given our current trajectory.

I remember playing Midnight Club 3 when I was a kid and learning about KidRobot from their in world billboards. It fits really well in a racing game.

Noita is so, so, so much more than it seems from the reviews and trailers. Trust me. If the core gameplay looks cool to you, pick it up, and then know that once you've "beaten" the game the first time (took me 40 hours to do) you've experienced approximately 5% of the total game content. Noita is an Easter egg wrapped inside four secrets wrapped in an enigma. One of my favorite games ever made.

I really wanted to like the OG steam controller but the touchpad-joystick-analogue makes it basically impossible to play any of the games I'd want a controller for. It's a great controller for using on things that aren't really intended for controller. Want to play an FPS leaning back in your chair? It's great for that. Want to play Hades? I'm gonna pass and plug in my dualshock instead.

I actually revisited it recently and gave it a second shot after getting used to the steam deck pads, but unfortunately it's still not really doing it for me personally.

Much more likely that no company wants to use it no matter how much it costs because it degrades. We use plastic as a packing material specifically because it doesn't degrade and lasts forever.

who was against interracial marriage until his own

No, he's still on record voting against interracial marriage while being actively in one.

I think it was profitable, at one point, up until the bait and switch that was Overwatch 2.

They know it's rigged because they're the ones rigging the damn things

It's impossible for them to understand the idea that the Democrats might not also be desperately trying to counter-rig every election, and rather just have such a shit ton more voters outside the hostile voting environments that they still occasionally pull out a win now and then

I, a mere mortal, have no idea what the fuck this meme is talking about and I am slightly afraid. This sounds like Deep Math™️

It's an extremely Randall sort of question and answer, to be fair.

But holy shit, some of these other ones are amazing. The T-Rex question isn't the only one in there worth reading.

Professor: “A student asked me “So how do I use this in a conversation when my aunt is wine-drunk at thanksgiving and being a jerk again?” Which honestly is a fair question about philosophy and really changed how I teach rhetoric.”
