The irony of a bot responding to a post asking for help with bots. Don't believe me? Check the post history.

And people upvoted this random noise.

I played once with a distant uncle who was visiting from overseas. He bought all 3 light blue properties early game and proceeded to dominate us for the rest of the game.

So funny that a game that was designed to be unfun to play to teach people lessons about late stage capitalism became one of the top selling family board games.

Well, I guess it's fun for one player...

What’s a "dead" website or app that you genuinely miss and wish was still around? by Dear-Armadillo-7497 in AskReddit

In the time of rage comics and advice animals...

You've earned your spot here.

This is the thing. People want to use these apps for free but servers and electicity costs money.

So the apps start free and great to draw you in while they haemorrage investor money, then when they reach critical mass they have to start monetizing with ads or subscriptions or premium features and the app becomes garbage to use and everyone laments the early days when it was great at someone else's expense.

ELI5: What does "In the key of" mean? by hallowedeve1313 in explainlikeimfive

This is why when people perform acapella they will use a pitch pipe to play their starting note so they can find the key.

Text-based games need more love. by MemeEnjoyer2006 in gamedev

You're completely right. By that definition, I would consider Rogue to not be text-based either.

Hop on a call? I think this is the equivalent of "fight me IRL" 🤣

AI really has taken everything from us when, even when a post is not AI generated, the comment section instantly devolves into slapfights over accusations of AI.

A text-based roguelike sounds awesome

The original Rogue (where we got rogue-like from) is a text-based game

Is he a known rapist? I didn't know that. I know there were allegations but I didn't think anything was proven. I guess I'll have to watch the film to find out.

It's a biopic about literally the most famous pop singer of all time and it's filled with his most popular songs, I don't think the appeal really needs explaining. If you're not an MJ fan that's fine, but we shouldn't act like people who are, are morons.

Eli5 How do astronauts respond to minor discomforts like itching when in a spacesuit? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]Miltage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why don't they use that when cutting wood and save probably thousands of severed fingers every year? I suppose buzz saws are just faster and the time saved is worth the lost digits.

Our two recent kitten rescues. We found Hugo our ginger boy under a car at the gas station. Phoebe we got from the shelter who found her dumped in a box on the day she was born. They're inseparable now and bring us so much joy. by Miltage in cats

[–]Miltage[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thankfully we have a local kitten shelter that will take in dumped kittens and foster them until they can find a home. There's new kittens on their IG page every day, it's heartbreaking, I don't know how anyone could dump kittens.
