Minecraft water buckets dont have infinite mass, they only hold 920 kg worth of water

If it were supposed to be pronounced “jif” it would have been spelled that way, I don’t give two fucks what Stephen Wilhite said about it either.

Begging the Question is a logical fallacy, a circular argument. So when a position brings a question to mind that is other than a challenge to its validity, it raises the question.

“Spectacle Fighter”.

In the late aughts, game critic Ben “Yathzee” Croshaw came up with that term to describe games like Bayonetta and Devil May Cry, beat-em-up type games where the point is less “can you get through” and more “how high can you get that combo meter? How COOL can you make yourself look while beating up all these fodder enemies?”

A few years later the industry coalesced on an agreed-upon term for this subgenre – And called it “Character Action”.

Yathzee has just accepted defeat and uses the term everyone uses, he has to, he works in games media.

I refuse. Character Action is a dumb, DUMB term because every action game is a character action game, because there is ACTION and CHARACTERS in all of them.

Whereas “Spectacle Fighter” was perfectly descriptive of just WHAT made those games special. You are FIGHTING, and the objective is to LOOK SPECTACULAR.

I don’t care what they say, a single space after a period at the end of a sentence is NOT enough. Now get offa my lawn!

assuming we’re allowed to get political, the israel/palestine shit, there are people on the left that care way too fucking much, it’s the one issue they complain about and if it took them dissolving the entire US government structure and forced us to all starve they would do that, and then be really fucking bored when they realize they have nothing to be mad about anymore.

Little advice from me to you, doesn’t matter what your opinion is, or what it’s about. You probably care too much about it if you’re getting mad on the internet about it. Stop being mad on the internet about it, it quite literally has almost no effect on your life. You’re allowed to protest, and be unhappy about things, you’re allowed to challenge things in court, that’s all fine, but please stop calling people genocidal zionists, and aggressively insulting them, you’ve created a vile echo chamber not dissimilar to COD and league lobbies, and nobody wants to be compared to a league player.

assuming we’re not allowed to talk about politics, all of web dev, the entire field was a mistake and we should fucking start over, the web browser is literally turning into it’s own OS that runs on top of an OS. Why? I don’t know, great question. Have you ever wanted to run a bare metal operating system, and then run a virtual machine on it, and then run a software container inside that virtual machine, and then launch software inside that container on that virtual machine on that hardware? And then felt like you needed that software to have it’s own containerization and entire OS stack running inside of it? Yeah me neither. Why is that a thing we can do?

aside from that, every web app i have ever used is fucking awful, the networking fucking sucks, it’s all based on subscribing to the modern DNS and reverse proxy meta, which is fucking annoying for testing. And even more annoying if you don’t feel like paying for a fucking domain name if you want to host something privately. It’s super fucking restricted and just doesn’t work half the time? Like firefox and chrome webrtc don’t work together in my experience? It’s so insanely bloated that it’s a fucking nightmare to troubleshoot anything, and fixing certain problems sucks because the web doesn’t fucking want to use http anymore? Like fuck you it’s a static HTML page eat shit.

Mumble is quite literally one of my favorite pieces of software i have used, and it’s client is broken and has a memory leak. It just fucking works, it has it’s own security and cert handling, it runs natively on IPs which means it can also work over proxy networking trivially by just, setting that up separately, like a normal person. Or you could even just, not do that. It’s incredibly flexible and does basically everything you want from a voip app. The server is minimal and quick, bots are trivial to deal with. It’s all around a great platform.

It’s pronounced “gif,” not “gif.”

Two spaces after periods.

As I’ve said before, the distinction between countable and uncountable quantities is lost on most people nowadays. In my opinion, the rampant overuse of the word “amount” (instead of “number”) is the clearest indicator of this problem.

That or my recent addiction to correcting people when they use “less” when they should use “fewer”

Remember, kids, “less” is for uncountable things, like liquids, whereas “fewer” is for countable things (like apples).

It’s one of many weird rules that English, as a language, has.

Games with kernel level anti-cheat.

As an English major and history buff, Anti-Stratfordians live in my head rent-free. I hate their stupid, classist arguments that utterly depend on misunderstanding the context of Elizabethan theatre, Shakepeare’s story, his work, that of his peers, and how truly well documented he is for a 16th-century commoner.

Nuts only make sense in something that’s already hard, like a cookie. It complements it by going from something hard-ish to another hard-ish texture.

Nuts in cake DOESN’T MAKE SENSE. I hate having to chew something smooth and spongy and suddenly - CRONCH. It’s repulsive. 99% of the time it also tastes worse than the cake itself. If you actually want to put nuts on your damn cake, put it on the top so I can slide it off and eat it separately. Thank you.

Stoplights at a junction should be done in phases and not in straight on green and turn on green only if it’s clear.

If you have a 4 way junction then each way should green for you to go straight or turn off for a period of time.

I live in a high altitude area. It gets very hot. People will say that it’s because we’re “closer to the sun” as if the _6000ft/1800m difference is what matters vs the 93,000,000mi/150,000,000km distance to the sun is affected by something so small.

The difference is the lack of atmosphere to soften the various types of light from the sun.
