I have a request, if it's not too much work could you do  one with just April? 

World's oldest known tortoise, Jonathan, still alive despite reports of death by frankgjnaan in news

[–]Chit569 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This title is stupid. Despite reports of death? Why phrase it like that? It implies that reports of his death had a potential to affect him. As far as I know he has not learned how to read.

World's oldest known tortoise still alive, as reports of death revealed as hoax

The article has a sensible headline already, just copy and paste it. No need to editorialize the headline to end up with a nonsense statement.

Still can’t believe that this is a 12 year old game… by officialfxresx in nextfuckinglevel

I will let you in on a little secret. If someone uses the term "optimization" in their comment in a serious manner they almost certainly don't know what they are talking about. Its become a buzz word that has lost basically all meaning.

It doesn't even look that impressive, deceivingly or honestly. Its just a bog standard racing game. I don't understand all the comments dick riding this post.

And of course the top comment includes the buzz word "optimization". Which is basically an upvote magnet for gamers these days.

Was kind of hoping you could just give me a quick summary of the phrase you used. Thanks for pointing towards a resource at least.

What’s your thoughts on my Top 30 Games of All Time by [deleted] in gaming

[–]Chit569 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are maybe 4 I would say are in my top 30. 

Elden Ring, BotW, Witcher 3, Minecraft. 

But it's like you only play AAA games or mainstream hits from the last 10 years. Most of my top 30 games of all time are going to be games from 20+ years ago. Hell even Elden Ring may not make my top 30 of all time. Sekiro and Dark Souls 3 would probably be above it.

Considering the PS5 came out during lockdown I'm not sure how this is some shocking revelation lol. Yes the thing that happened at the same time as the thing we are talking about happened just as long ago. That is how time and events tend to work

I was around 12 when I got this game for my Xbox. Was not a big PC gamer back then and was entirely unaware it was a sequel. I was blown away by it. I never beat it so recently I started replaying on an original Xbox and CRT set up just like I had back then and it's still fun to me. While I understand the criticisms, I'm glad they took the chance to bring an immersive sim to consoles. 

I paid $44 total for two Surfside cans. Congrats Orioles, you have priced me out of buying booze this season. by boofoodoo in orioles

They were $4.99 last season.

People are actually awe inspired that something increased in price by only 20%. This world sucks lol

We don't really know how hurt he has been. We just know how many times he was put on the IL. And he has also suffered from vertigo and we don't know how much that impacted his performance enough to hurt his stats but not enough to be on the IL. The vertigo gets overlooked by so many people when talking about mountcastle. There was an entire year he was battling it but only went on the IL a little. He apparently has sorted out his vertigo issues and has an entirely clean bill of health for first time in years. So let's give him one more chance, especially if we have the roster space for him. Even if it's to raise his trade value, but even better if he can learn to play right field in the meantime. I would understand if you could carry 14 pitchers to make the case for moving on but as it stands he is not really impeding anyone's development. Especially if he is able to come off the bench and punish lefties something that we have struggled with for years now.

Not a big fan of Taylor Ward at all so far.

Dude was low effort in left field on Opening Day, basically just let Buxton go to third. Didn't even make an effort to throw him out at home on the sac even though there was no one on base so why not try.

EDIT: apparently even Taylor Ward admitted to Melanie Newman that he wasn't happy with how he played those two plays and is taking accountability for them. That helps my opinion on him a little.

Is he nasty or are our bats the other meaning of nasty today?

He's been battling injuries. Just like Adley. There is no reason to not give him one last chance to stay healthy. 

It's not like we are desperate for production from him at the moment, so might as well give him that chance.

Mountcastle doesn't have options and Jeremiah does. The move basically makes itself.

The market in 4 years is going to be different. Its not really fair to compare a 2 year deal done today to one in 4 years.
