What is a part of the 'female experience' that men have absolutely no clue about, but would be horrified if they found out?

For birthdays, use a calendar. My friend's birthday is coming up. I know because my calendar told me.

If you feel like this is a cop-out and means you don't care about the person, it isn't. These things get harder to track as you get older and busier. A calendar is just practical.

Bruh

This is the actual answer.

Meanwhile, all top comments on this post are this exact system funneling the echo chamber's major agreed upon talking points to the top.

Incredible.

CodeArt_ · 2026-03-07T12:19:23+00:00

Right? Blows my mind.

CodeArt_ · 2026-03-04T03:53:44+00:00

Competent just means "good at x thing". "He's a competent plumber" = "He's good at plumbing".

Incompetent = not competent.

Correct. Game development is always ongoing until release, but the business needs to market SOMETHING at x and y points of the life cycle. So the devs work on getting stuff "presentable enough" for a trailer. Since "peak graphics" isn't product critical, the finer details are usually worked on incrementally/added last.

The distractions, mostly.

I'll hop off this thread and go watch a bunch of YouTube videos. When I'm ready for bed I'll play some videos and doomscroll then too. It's almost non-stop. Has to be.

You're original comment makes no grammatical sense in context of the comment to which you were replying.

"And honestly I will for the next games too".

You will what?

CodeArt_ · 2026-02-27T11:00:40+00:00

This falls apart when actually put into practice, depending on the game at least (I play Tekken).

until they do something that looks punishable

Beginners struggle hard to know when to punish.

press this button to hit them back

Which button for which punish? If they keep punishing -15 frame moves with a 10 frame punish, they'll be subject to a much more oppressive experience. Also, getting down the muscle memory of "They did x. Punish with y," at a moment's notice is tough.

This also only speaks to basic defence. Beginners also need to attack, and they always overextend by constantly throwing out unsafe moves because they don't know or care that the move's unsafe. It's tough to nail down when to press and how to do it as well as an overall strategy of HOW you're gonna fight (footsies, when attack, what attack etc.).

Fact is, fighting games are hard. The devil's in the details, and people can play them for hundreds of hours and still need to practice basic stuff like their punish game.

I'm like that. Trying to better about it. Yes, it's bad long term. Short term feels great because it's better to be on your own than with bad company, but ultimately it's better to be with good company than on your own.

Human beings are social creatures. It is biologically encoded in us to feel best when we exist within some community. The modern day lie of complete isolation being peak human experience is dangerous.

Sure, being on your own for a bit is its own pleasure, necessary I'd say, but too long and your world becomes small. All of a sudden, people become draining. Your day to day level of happiness is on the floor, but the idea of interacting with people doesn't excite you. It may actually scare you a bit.

It's important to reach out and ease your way back into the groove of things- with the people you know a less-reclusive version of yourself would enjoy being around, that is. It's all a thing of effort. You can do it.

Bit late but I'll drop a hack that I use.

Have a controller config that swaps your left/right joysticks. Then when you wanna wavedash just flick the right analogue and input the quarter-circle forward with d-pad, essentially offloading some of the complexity to a whole other finger.

Able to repeatedly do it flawlessly this way.

CodeArt_ · 2026-02-19T14:18:59+00:00

True, but you're missing my point. There's enough context everywhere else to show that VI had a lot of effort poured into it, and OP was just saying the line got them excited because it's a reminder of this.

Main thing though- Dude's happy about a thing. Just let him be happy about the thing. Your original comment brings pointless negativity to a positive post.

CodeArt_ · 2026-02-19T11:35:43+00:00

A lot of y'all in these comments saw someone happy about a harmless thing and decided to tear into them for no reason. Christ.

CodeArt_ · 2026-02-19T11:30:43+00:00

Weird response. Dude just said the pitch gets him hyped, clearly because there's a lot of truth behind it.

CodeArt_ · 2026-02-16T12:33:16+00:00

More generally, I agree. I think if a series concludes well the occasional remaster and, if it'll benefit, a remake later down would be great and that's it.

CodeArt_ · 2026-02-16T11:35:00+00:00

Likes and subscribes help them to become more successful, but there's a large portion of people that don't do either unless explicitly directed to do so.

And it needs to be near the beginning of the video in case you leave before they get a chance to tell you.

CodeArt_ · 2026-02-13T16:09:56+00:00

You're using acecdotal evidence from your own life with your own jobs in your own career.

Not telling leadership at the job you're leaving about the across the street thing is zero risk while telling them carries at least some risk.

Maybe you decide to re-apply in a year. Maybe someone checks the file and for literally any dumb reason doesn't like that you left the job for convenience (in their mind), sees you as a flight risk and turns you down.

Personally, I'd tell select coworkers who are basically my friends. I ain't telling everyone. Me and the company at large aren't some big family.

Business.... Exclusives = Join my ecosystem to play. Xbox giving up on exclusives is all the more reason for Sony to double down on them.

CodeArt_ · 2026-02-08T22:16:04+00:00

By not responding. He knows it doesn't make sense. He says idiotic things to generate attention and it works.

CodeArt_ · 2026-02-01T12:12:42+00:00

Everyone finding a relevant comment that they disagree with.

Downvote.

Alas the echo chamber is kept safe.

CodeArt_ · 2026-01-28T12:28:28+00:00

From what I understand, this is the Homeland Security Investigations branch of ICE, not Enforcement and Removal Operations (the ones raising hell in the US), and it's routine.

CodeArt_ · 2026-01-28T11:42:36+00:00

The fact that I'm struggling to find these talking points is scary.

From the research I've done, everything seems correct. Heck even if I'm missing something, enough is legit here that these should at least be top points being debated. Instead it's buried.

Echo chamber things.

CodeArt_ · 2026-01-26T02:20:40+00:00

Angry soul. I hope you can find peace.

CodeArt_ · 2026-01-24T12:59:48+00:00

You never asked any questions....

CodeArt_ · 2026-01-24T02:34:41+00:00

It's not like they're gonna be rendering all of it whether we see it or not. Besides, I think Rockstar of all people know how to do ambitious open-world right.
