  • I’m not saying to not enjoy this, or other things. I’m just saying that people mindlessly consuming any slop that has an IP attached is how we ended up in this situation. There’s a lot fewer good and interesting things made, which actually have a hope of being good, because it’s so much safer to make slop with existing IP. Even if it’s bad (it almost always is, because they’re making it purely for profit, not because they care about the IP like you do), it still prints money.


  • bonus tip: if you live in a dry zone, get an air cooler. It’s an enclosed fan behind a self contained waterfall. Humid air is particularly cooling.

    A swamp cooler is another term for a similar thing (a damp surface with airflow). Humid air is not cooling though. It’s actually the opposite, because it makes water harder to evaporate, which is how our body tries to stay cool. That’s why a humidity feels so hot. Evaporation cools, which means we can use this to cool air, which is how these evaporative coolers work. They don’t feel cool because they’re humid. That’s a side effect. Water evaporating pulls heat out of the air, so it’s cooler. The higher the humidity the worse these function.











  • Personally, for me, I’ve paid attention to it some, but not followed it closely. I think a lot of it is just that I understand it so well and have seen it all before. I love KSP (and KSA is looking great!), and have played it with the real solar system mods. The launch looks better than the game, but everything after the game does better. It can look better (their renders are surprisingly shit still), and I can actually control it.

    I love space information and technology, but this is just one more step in it. I can’t follow everything. It’s great that it’s happening, but there’s also a ton more research being done that I don’t even know about. This, while impressive and good, isn’t something new.

    I watched the launch after it happened at 2x speed and saw some parts of the descent. My phone wallpaper has been set t9 pictures they took. I’m just not that interested in following it live. I know what to expect, and I’ll hear about it if anything unexpected happens.




  • I find this is a weird question. Everyone is going to be different. If the person is straight, then obviously they’re going to be more attracted to someone who presents on the feminine side. It’s all personal preference though.

    As a straight man, I prefer my women to be more towards the tomboy side of things usually. I like really feminine looking women too, but I find the ones I’m most attracted towards look feminine but present more towards the masculine side.

    Obviously all these terms are made up though. I would say anyone who isn’t a bigot would date a non-binary person if they match what they want. Genitals are obviously part of this, but presentation is made up. Your presentation just has to be something they like. If they like it then tbey like it. It shouldn’t be more complex than that. Someone being non-binary has nothing to do with that.

    All this said, personality is obviously important. Someone can be attracted to you and not like your personality. I guess someone could not like the personality of people who are non-binary?

    This is why I don’t get why adults play Pokémon. Even as a young child playing the original Pokémon, without any guides or any other resources, I was able to trivially make a party where I didn’t have to think. I just spam one move and win. I know you can optimize the hell out of the games, but there’s zero need to outside multiplayer. I thought the games were really fun as a child, partially because of a lack of options and partially because it’s made for children. I know people in their 30s who still play them when they release though. It’s so confusing to me.
