  • 6-month-old boy dies in hot car after parent forgot to drop him off at day care: Sheriff

  • That's what I'm trying to tell you, it doesn't come across as an admission, at least to me. I get what you're trying to say, but that's not the first impression it conveys

  • It's actually pretty vague, since only one of your comments seem to actually acknowledge you having read the article, and none of your comments indicate it changed your opinion (one about you having the capability to be wrong, but I can't tell whether you're saying you were wrong in this case, or just a general rhetorical device).

    I'm not judging you here, I'm pointing out there might be a huge disconnect between what you think you've said and what's actually coming across that would explain the reception you're getting.

  • Just came along. Presumably most people read your 1st comment (which is horrifyingly unempathethic, TBH) and didn't really follow the rest of the discussion

  • An announcement about the new Valve game could be coming soon, after a mysterious update on Steam

  • Man, I remember the days when IceFrog was this new name that had appeared out of nowhere to revive 5.84c.

  • They're not working on the half life series because there's no way they'll ever live up to the hype that's built up. Best to let sleeping dogs lie.

  • You're stuck on a desert island for five years. You can have three video games. What three games do you take?

  • I'm not getting on that island till the Factorio expansion is out next month.

  • It's fine to reward those who've spent more time and effort more - as long as we remember and acknowledge that we need everybody else to make society work too, and the baseline of even the lowliest workers is reasonably comfortable.

  • The guy is a Trump / Musk supporter, he's half the problem as it is.

    While I have criticized Trump in the past, I have also objected to some of the efforts to impeach or convict him on dubious legal theories.

    Yeah, those 34 duuuuubious felony convictions!

  • I'm just gonna drop this here as an example:

    The Jerusalem Report (Owned by Jerusalem Post) and the Jerusalem Post

    This biased as shit publication is declared by MBFC as VEEEERY slightly center-right. They make almost no mention of the fact that they cherry pick aspects of the Israel war to highlight, provide only the most favorable context imaginable, yadda yadda. By no stretch of the imagination would these publications be considered unbiased as sources, yet according to MBFC they're near perfect.

  • Scenario: You're barefoot on a hot 90C surface that extends as far as the eye can see. Pain, panic, confusion sets in. How long before you gain the clarity of mind to dump your backpack, yank off your shirt and wrap your feet? With no assistance, because nobody else has any idea why you're screaming in pain.

    Yes, your skin could absolutely fall off in that time.

  • You're missing the point of the comment you're replying to, which is that the devs don't understand decompilers RIGHT NOW, and it's formatted in a tongue in cheek way similar to their current comment about VCS

  • This was one of the less interesting what if articles, considering how the pricing of printer ink is a scam. Would be more interesting if he touched on Brother or commercial printer pricing.

  • The American dream is over: Why some first-generation Gen Zers are moving abroad

  • Direct quote from the article:

    “That being said, I am happy to give up my right to vote as a trade for a significantly better quality of life. It’s cleaner, it’s safer. There’s more opportunity in mobility,” she said.

    “There’s no one on this planet who could be that bad of a person that we need to assassinate just to keep them out of the presidency,” Christian said. “How radical the American culture and society is getting in its entirety is making me go, ‘I really need to get out of here.’”

    Christian and Salah said they won’t be voting, and Do said she is still learning about the process for voting abroad right now.

    “I think American politics is a joke,” Salah said. “I think we’re seeing that no matter which party is in power, no matter which face it is, it’s kind of the same system.”
