    Picked NMS for a couple of random moments of play, immediately hit suicide-button (R1)

    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

    Sigh, I'm googling up survival-rate for plants that are denied sunlight, and top result is a direct question - with NO fucking answer

    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

    SOME spoilers: the latest GoT episodes shows me how D&D as writers simply do not comprehend the possible scope of this particular fantasy

    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.

    Yeah, time to fuck off from Twitter and other social media for a while... why can't people combine watching a beloved tv show with

    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

    My brother's in Munich at some machine-seminar, he's a grunt, but for some reason, his boss brought all the grunts, like a school trip

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

    Kalmykia, Russia, is such a weird place. Buddhist majority religion, Kalmyk/Dzungar/Mongol majority population, remnant from Mongol empire

    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.

    What separates it from erectus anyway?
    zegh8578
    zegh8578
    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
    zegh8578

    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

    "We are outnumbered" turns into "We are superior" in Google translate -.-

    zegh8578
    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

    I was never into Iggy Pop (except "I wanna be your dog" is awesome) - but the dude refuses to die, and still tours, that's truly impressive

    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
    zegh8578
    zegh8578
    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.

    I've long wanted that kinda American Psycho shower, with black tiles, no "booth", just a big room with water coming from the ceiling

    Sounds like a prison shower.
    zegh8578
    zegh8578
    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.
