It comes in handy when you want the multiple of a number.

Adding to slaacaa’s fantastic summary, “unites behind” might be a bit of a stretch; there are a miriad of ways to be in the opposition, and it’s not like the US where you essentially pick from two options (maybe three, but the rest is quite insignificant), but there’s like half a dozen parties opposing Fidesz, the governing party. Unfortunately, due to having vastly different approaches and opinions, these parties could never unite properly and there have always been some infighting between them, especially during elections, which doesn’t really give the best impression to voters. They have tried to unite twice already and both attempts led to another 2/3 majority for Fidesz.

Now that finally there is another competitor who seems to have more support (while having about the same amount of ideas and plans for the future), these opposition parties are not all 100% supportive, further diluting votes against the current regime.

It’s still slightly more hopeful than the previous times, because finally Tisza, the new party seems to have more supporters than the largest opposition party that still runs a previous, horribly failing prime minister’s wife.

But saying that the opposition finally unites… Is a bit of a stretch in my opinion.

I’ve been using the Casio W800 series (W800-H currently) for the past 12+ years. This is my 3rd watch, only because I simply lost the first two. However, it’s about the 6th strap, so it’s like the AK’s strap.

The existence of weaklings implies the existence of stronglings.

I’m a non native speaker and I honestly thought poop was almost like baby speak for excrement. Hell, it even sounds cute. See also: boop. Have I been wrong all along, or is it just your own perspective?

The aspect ratio! With some hard work and intensive empathy training I got over the vertical format being default, but when someone uploads a horizontal video to a vertical format site, and then you’re trying to bring it to full screen on your also horizontal monitor… I could headbutt the monitor in.

I counted pixels once. It took up less than 10% of the display area. Just a fucking thick black (EDIT: or non-video regardless) “border” on 90+% of the monitor. And why? Because of one dipshit deciding they will consider horizontal screens nonexistent (while it’s closer to natural, human vision). I can’t even blame the uploader, sometimes they don’t even know this use case isn’t even handled.

I’m sure this is two separate stories but please tell it like it was one. Extra style points for the two biting each other.

AFAIK it was done by Blizzard North, the same team that actually worked on D2 back then (when Blizzard was more like Blizzard). At least partly. Correct me if I’m wrong (I might easily be) but it is at least not a 100% match with regular Blizzard.

Unrelated, but I read “Definitely true for Gamers” twice. I was so confused.

I had the same thought initially, and unfortunately it wasn’t just GTA. However, IMHO Diablo II Resurrected was an amazing exception, and I’m sure there are others. Plus, the OP’s question was probably about an ideal case and they wanted to know what people have been missing from the past.

Realistically, I wouldn’t expect a decent comeback of Guitar Hero 3 for example, but it sucks that it doesn’t really work on Win10/11 anymore, and while Clone Hero exists, it doesn’t have the same “story” mode as GH3 had, with characters, milestones and such. Hell, you can’t even get “booed out”.

Too bad that as you mentioned, even if there was demand, a random big company would just buy the rights, do some lazy upscale and sell it like it was gourmet shit.

Honestly, if it was me reading about the pixie dust, I would just find it hilarious and probably not mention it, since I got the joke.

How… how do skeletons drink? I mean… what happens to the liquid?

I can’t remember the last one, so I’ll tell the one before.

I think I had activated some really primal stuff. You know how so many animals cuddle in a bunch, often in entire groups, to keep warm and sleep together? Yeah, I was basically just lying down, with members from my family, on top of my father’s rhythmically raising-falling belly, right on the edge of falling asleep (within my dream).

It was heaven. The most peaceful I have felt in a looong time. Despite us humans being boney animals (by default), it just felt so soft and comfy. I think it must have been some leftover from ancient hominid (?) life.

Interesting, I just meant that cockroaches are nearly indestructible and will survive humanity. But I do agree with your first sentence.

Let me introduce you the crown of creation: the cockroach.

6227020800 is definitely higher than 11.

Wow, I just looked it up on Maps - I had no idea. This is awesome. I tried to find it myself whithout looking at blogposts and whatnot, so I’m still not 100% sure, but I guess this is the one.

And then there are the (multiplayer) gamers. It’s great that I can play SO many more offline/single player games than I used to on Linux, but I can’t help if the ones I like to play are all unsupported (and probably will be for a looong time).

I would have switched to Linux about 20 years ago if it was possible, but unfortunately, developing exploit free, stable anti cheats for competitive multiplayers on multiple OS’s is a nightmare, and I get why most developers resort to picking the currently most widely used one. It’s just a shame because otherwise I prefer Linux over Windows in many aspects.
