You know how the computer un-savvy mom is always afraid to "ruin the computer" by "pressing the wrong button", and you're always "naw, just click around, that's how you learn! There is NO self-destruct feature on the keyboard, lol!"

No Man's Sky pretty much has the button equivalent of that worry, an outright surprise-suicide feature

I was kinda wondering what you were even looking for. After brute forcing some google keywords it seems that "inset wall niche" or "wall niche" is best thing I can think of that matches what you said.

I used "recess in a wall for statue" to find that.

This is an arched wall niche

YES! Thank you! Awesome, and I would not have guessed that at all! "Niche" to describe this feature was totally new to me! Thanks, you saved me a headache!

Or, I have a chronic bloating issue (thank you.), and I googled it cus, you know, that's what you do. "I eat air all the time. Now I'm bloated! What suggestions are out there, from the medical community?"
"Tips: Try not to eat air. Try not to drink air. Try to not fill yourself with air on a regular basis."
"Oh my god! Tremendous! It actually worked!"

The PS4 thing is hilarious. I love being able to search problems online but the threads you sometimes find like that are a bit mind boggling.

It's just a matter of shifting through the surface stupidity, but god, it never ends! So often do I catch myself expecting mass stupidity to be like a passing bother

He will be 105 by then, so, biologically plausible

I've always been sceptical (and I say that mildly) to media adaptations, book-to-movie, movie-to-comic, book-to-game, game-to-movie etc. Adaptations can be convenient - if done well, but most of the time, they're just cash-grabs, and will behave like it. When I first heard of GoT I thought it was like Breaking Bad, I thought it was something brilliant and beloved made for TV particularily

As soon as I learned it was an adaptation - of fairly obscure but critically aclaimed 90s fantasy novels... from that moment on, I've kind of just been counting down and waiting for it to just start sucking... and sure enough! They just could not hack it in the long run.

At one point on AOT S3-1 a character flashes back to a conversation they never had with Eren (That was actually a huge moment in the story), because the writers of the early episodes of the season thought characters talking was too boring and they needed the Human Supression Squad on episode 1.

Sons of Anarchy >>> Borinking Bad. Bye.

Pfff, it's totally different, the whole dynamic. SoA is about people who are almost "born into" that life, they're badass cus they're all badass - it's like Oz, it's *about* hard-ass gangsters. BB is about a high school teacher "breaking bad", that's the point, the ongoing transformation

I don't even use Twitter, Facebook or any social media platform because fuck that.

Apparently, he has allready managed to get in some argument with hookers, idunno how he does it...

And it is, in case it was not clear, in Europe! Just north of Caucasus!

What was it, Neo Scavenger - while it didn't do quite *that* it still threw these terrible deaths at you, like, dysentery more than once :D I believe it's the only game that actually lets the player shit themselves to death

Unsurprisingly I usually encounter odd narrative elements in older game or indie games exclusively. Occasionally there is comedic gold such as "That's right. You have no head. That darn pool must have been filled with acid. You obviously can't go on living that way." -The Narrator from Space Quest when Roger drinks from the Pool on Kerona.

That's horrible, but awesome, but horrible :D

What separates it from erectus anyway?

I haven't read the paper itself, it's paywalled and probably pretty dry stuff - but my impression is that little-to-nothing separates it, which is why paleontologists are voicing their frustration. The differences will be minute enough, to warrant careful comparisons with all known advanced Hominins in order to justify a new species

Like I said tho, taxonomy aside - even if H. luzonensis is sunk into H. erectus - or in any other way regarded as dubious - that doesn't reduce the importance of the discovery itself. Here's a nice wiki summary: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homo_luzonensis

I really am not sure how these things happen, it can't be just trolling, but afaik the translations are built on user interaction, kind of like Wikipedia. This isn't the first time results translate into *the polaric opposite* meaning though

Even 23 years ago, it's made into a joke in Trainspotting, when Diane just assumes the guy must be long dead, and Renton corrects her, saying the guy is still touring

He is 71 now, wrinkled skin hanging off his stringy abs, and I bet 20 years from now he will be still touring, 90 year old whisps of white hair dangling from his head

The Stooges were awesome.
Iggy seems to be whatever alien species that Keith Richards is. Every time some human takes 7 minutes off their life with a cigarette, they gain those minutes.

If I can out-of-the-blue do that just once, it has to be done well, and it'll be worth it :V

Is that guy still a thing?

But, muh rationality!

@Walpknut sadly, yes. He still makes videos.

Sounds like a prison shower.

I don't think so, prison shower kindov is the same as public pool showers or school gym showers. I'm talking about a much smaller room, with the black tiles giving a dark feel that is very underappreciated in bathrooms. Bright white bathrooms are easier to clean -

But a dark bathroom, that's goth-metal, ever showered in the dark with only a candle or two? I got so comfy, I managed to sit down and almost fall asleep. Which reminds me - I also want a chair in the shower.

Based on legit source, while not exactly very perfect intepretation it simply much better than other scattered version in google image.

That map isn't similar to Pangaea though, but I'm not blaming you, it's a misunderstanding of what Pangaea is (just the fact that there's a continent there that looks like Africa. Real life Africa would not occur untill after Gondwana rips apart)

That map looks analogous to modern Earth, more than anything - it has an Africa - it has a continent that alludes to the Americas, it has small Indian subcontinent as well as an overgrown Madagascar. It looks cool, actually (but has very little in common with real world Pangaea :D)
