I love commentary and streaming services almost never have it. That's the biggest loss.

From the article:

“Our technology can be thought of as ‘indirect air capture’ because the ocean will take more carbon dioxide out of the air above it to replace the carbon dioxide that we’re removing.” Hornbostel said.

Can you not just visit with him outside on some lawn chairs? Or does the outside smell as well?

Playing Switch games while walking on a treadmill. I always found exercise boring before, but the split controller of the Switch makes it easy to play while walking.

I have found I don't even notice I'm walking and look forward to it since I'm actually looking forward to gaming.

Dark Souls while walking is the best. I've walked about 140 miles in the last month.

That's an excellent pun if that's what the writer intended, although it would work much better if he hadn't been so stupid about it.

I wish this was high enough resolution to see the brush strokes. Practically photorealistic paintings are always amazing accomplishments.

I love reading about Eve, but when I tried playing, it just wasn't for me. But the news about the epic battles, betrayals, etc... It's fantastic!

It was well respected by me as the only social platform that wasn't a form of self torture that countless people inexplicably partake in daily.

Now I consider Lemmy to have that singular position.

That was the best Simpsons game ever made. It was wall to wall references with quality gameplay. I'd love a remake of it.

These are the philosophical questions that every traveler must answer for themselves. I am but a hobbit. I didn't even remember to bring a handkerchief!

Honestly, most dev effort at big companies goes into ensuring nothing breaks or slows performance. When news articles are written about your mistakes, most developers and managers try not to break things.

Making new stuff happens, but it just can't happen as fast as at small companies where 90% uptime is good enough.

That said, it doesn't excuse launching products half baked. No reason an unlaunched product can't be iterated on quickly during dev.

Lord of the Rings. Not as much as the insanely awesome folks who memorized the Silmarillion, but I know a lot about The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.
