Love the use of fsck as a swear

Not OP, but coming from the same place: less annoying (I hope!) atheist.

Most Shrikes are like this. Their genus is Lanius, Latin for “butcher”.

(Also a fun piece of trivia for FTL fans.)

“Do cheap tickets encourage public transport use?”

What kind of question is that? Obviously they do??

I’ll bet Ada Lovelace had some somewhere.

Or the original plot of The Matrix, before the studio execs decided audiences were too stupid.

“Boy, I sure wish some megacorporation would dump a massive codebase on me to maintain without any financial assistance!”

This reads like an ad written by an LLM, wtf is it doing here?

Cats make for pretty poor insect control. They mostly kill spiders, not “pest” insects.

Was not prepared for the Diablo II reference lmao

Yeah, I’d like to see a source for this. There have been many proposed theories for why cats vocalize to humans, especially because “meowing” is not common between cats except for kittens. How do we know that it isn’t a request for food or attention?

“Allow us to introduce ourselves”

San Francisco had an emperor.

(He even “decreed” the construction of a bridge or tunnel between San Francisco and Oakland on the other side of the bay, predicting the existence of the Bay Bridge and Transbay Tube!)

Sigma Star Saga for the GBA. Really creative mashup of an RPG and a side-scrolling shooter, with a cool weapon-configuration system thrown in. Definitely suffered a bit from platform limitations, but there’s absolutely more that could have been done with the core concept.

Shockingly good writing, too.

Good lord yes. Overwatch is just a corporatized TF2 ripoff, but Battleborn was a creative, unique game with a soul.

Anyone who hasn’t seen it should watch the game’s intro cinematic, which gives a great sense of just how much character the game had.
