My most notable one was Subnautica.

I enjoyed it enough that I completed it 3 times: firstly in normal mode, then in hardcore mode, then with the Deathrun mod.

Mind you, he did want to bring back the nazi leaders.

Ah yes, nature's ghillie suit.

It really depends on the kid and the complexity of the message. Young kids are still learning the intricacies of the language and building a vocabulary. Not talking down to them helps build those skills up. But at the end of the day, if the message is not getting across, it's the fault of the communicator.

Plus it's an annoying flex to say "see how amazing my kid is? It's all because of me!" Some kids just pick up language easier, some kids sleep all the way through the night earlier, some kids toilet train easier, etc. Usually it's better for parents to quietly take the little victory rather than treat it as a reflection of their amazing parenting skills.

Wrong place to leave a habitat for bugs.

Fulifilling your dreams is all about the power of persistence folks! That, and having a friend willing to invest almost $70M in your dream.

But isn't chocolate toxic to cats? You win some, you lose some.

So the caption is really: "man convinces 5 clearly less enthusiastic friends to play board game."

It's more than just being about "stupid" people though. After all, who benefits from deliberately under-funding and attacking the integrity of educational institutions?

"Thank you, but we follow Martian facts here, we aren't interested in your Venusian ways."

I vote the 7 August should hereafter be declared "Succulent Chinese Meal Day" in tribute.

Gotta chase that sweet, sweet live service money though.

But earlier this month, he said he would move the company’s headquarters to Austin, citing a new Golden State law meant to protect LGBTQ+ children as the “final straw.”

Imagine being so full of hate for a highly vulnerable group of people that you base your business decisions around it.

It does seem like an oddly specific denial.

The bananas won't be fooled, because everyone knows that bananas are straight until they get picked and the banana bender puts the bend in them.

The thought of seeing someone shouting "Train!" still gives me nostalgia.

It looks like something "sci fi" from a 90s video game, when low-res polygon models were the best computers could do.

Including humans. I'm not going near the person launching pinecones at my head from their yard.

But quoting it implies it’s an invalid claim.

Interesting. I read the quotes as meaning: someone else said it, it's not just some opinion we made up. In this case, it was reporting the coroner's official finding.

In other words, I understood it to be reinforcing the claim rather than invalidating it.

Why are we quoting each other? I remember the comment before yours. I made it. Idiot.

Because quoting in a response provides structure to the response that improves readability.

Also, you are posting on a publicly accessible forum, not having a one-on-one conversation. In that context, that fact that you may remember what you said doesn't mean that it's not beneficial to repeat it for others.

The "idiot" comment was unnecessarily rude where someone was engaging in what appeared to be a good faith response, and only brings down the tone of your entire post.
