  • Is it the American way to complain about the US, or is it that other countries aren't worth complaining about?

  • It's not "subtext" when you straight-up can't read the text (i.e. don't understand the language) :D

  • There IS a difference between cultural differences and things that are objectively bad.

  • What really hurts is how bad he is at it. He's been at it for way too long to get away with this level of anatomy. Also a lot of his jokes are about gaming and this guy clearly isn't a gamer (or at least isn't playing the types of games he writes jokes about).

    AND he wrote explicitly anti-LGBT+ webcomics.

  • This is kinda ironic, considering how bad the art is. Maybe it's not super obvious from just this one, but this is a terrible artist who has been doing horny "webcomics" for decades, and they pretty much look the same as when he first got well-known.

  • Try a space that's in their native language. Feddit.org is primarily a German-language instance and its users are complaining about Germany all the time.

    Also, everyone complains about the US, especially people who live on the continent of America but not in the US.

  • Annon is confronted with the pasing of time and the inevitablity of his incoming death

  • Counterpoint: "20" is shorter than "about 20" and this is a short comment by a 4chan anon.

  • On one hand it's suspicous, on the other hand it's a convenient number if your parents and grandparents were around that age but you don't want to put in their actual ages because you have a habit of not giving out personal information.

  • That's going to take a little while. If we assume that both parents got their first child at 18, that shouldn't happen before 2037. While it's technically possible to have children at 13, it's so far removed from the norm in developed countries that it makes me wonder if they even had access to a TV that would have let them perceive 9/11 if they had been alive and old enough back then.

    Why do people like scotch when it tastes like horse piss?

  • IDK, the hops taste that most popular beer brands have is kinda similar, too.

    Jump

  • If there's an alcoholic drink that's akin to horse piss, surely that's beer? Beer drinkers who don't like a specific brand always say that it tastes like piss, the net result being that for any given brand, there's a significant amount of people who claim that it tastes like piss.

    Assuming that human piss is similar to horse piss. You sound like you know more about horse piss than I do, OP.

  • Who do you think was history's greatest villain?

    Jump

  • I don't think it's fair to make Jesus responsible for the modern pick-and-chose followers of his religion, and I doubt modern Christianity would even be recognizable to him - the late Roman state religion is pretty different from his reformed Judaism. Plus IIRC early Christendom had some doomsday cult elements.

  • Steam is adding support to show estimated FPS for your hardware before buying a game

    Jump

  • Especially with games where it runs fine in the starting area, but performance tanks once you enter The City.

    I really hope they won't completely fuck it up, though, it would be a really neat feature.

  • Steam is adding support to show estimated FPS for your hardware before buying a game

    Jump

  • Neat. It's going to be interesting how they will solve the issue of different quality settings - I don't care about FPS at "ultra" settings, usually it's more important how the FPS are at low settings before you have to take desperate measures like turning down the resolution, completely turning off antialiasing, using upscaling etc. that have an extremely negative effect on graphics fidelity.

    Also, two games running at an average of 60FPS might give very different experiences depending on how consistent the FPS are.

  • I hear Hitler treated his dog very well.

    IMO, people generally aren't pure good or evil. But that doesn't mean that people like Hitler or Genghis Khan aren't giant assholes.

  • What are the more obscure independent linux distros?

  • NixOS has a lot of visibility, probably because the basic concept is so appealing to people who like to tinker with their OS. But its user base is still tiny.

  • Genghis Khan is up there. His conquests killed millions, I see estimates of up to 40 million, a significant percentage of the world's population (possibly double-digits). It's even theorized that so many people died that global temperature dropped as a result. You could go and argue that a large unified empire would prevent many future wars and thus could be a net positive even if establishing it is very bloody (see Pax Romana), and Genghis' rule was reportedly relatively progressive compared to his contemporaries. But then, you need to make it so that the emprie doesn't immediately break apart after its ruler dies, which he failed at.

    Though you can always argue that he wasn't really more evil than other rulers, just more successful. Which still makes him a "great villain", but there are more directly evil deeds than conquest, such as genocide.
