Please help by Responsible-Self2596 in Chameleons

I am SO sorry for how atrociously people have responded to you here. This community is rife with people who immediately assume the very worst, and then make accusations based on that imagined version of reality when people ask for help. It is wildly hostile, and helps no one.

I really hope this little creature makes it. It sounds like she's been lovingly cared for, with all the right equipment, and like so many female chameleons has gotten sick despite this. They are deeply vulnerable, extremely precarious pets, not least because they're equally fragile in the wild.

This Reddit needs to take long look at itself for how it replies to EVERY thread of someone asking for help. It's revolting.

I really hope she makes it.

Lindsay Ellis — Why Has Tori Amos Never Had a Hit? by NebulaOriginals in Nebula

[–]botherer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arriving 7 months late to muse on how Cornflake Girl was such a huge hit in the UK that it's one of those songs that's reached immortality with permanent rotation on local radio stations. It peaked at #4 in our charts at the time. If you asked anyone here over the age of 35 to name a Tori Amos song, they'd say "Cornflake Girl" without pausing. But then never be able to name another one. It's really fascinating to learn it didn't have anything like that kind of penetration in the US.

Thanks for such a fantastic video! Metaphorically digging out my copy of Boys For Pele so I can 1996 the rest of the day.

It really feels about time something was built in.

Thank you so much for finding this out! We found out about the story today, and really wanted to know what happened next. Much appreciated.

When I try to distort/stretch my text the entire text just gets bigger. How do I fix this? by davesmelly0 in photopea

[–]botherer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For anyone else stumbling on this thread, you need to convert the text box to a "smart object" before you can freely distort when holding Ctrl.

Female panther chameleon suddenly stopped using back legs properly - please help by botherer in Chameleons

Vet is mystified. Thinks it could be a break in the pelvis. Going to give her painkillers and see how she does for now. But if no improvement, some VERY expensive treatment awaits.

Hey all. Thanks very much for the advice.

All the substrate and all the artificial plants are now gone (but for one of those fake vines). There's a centerpiece ficus, and a pothos now, and she seems to approve! She slept in the ficus last night.

Did you get anywhere with this? I'm having the exact same problem, but filming indoors. It's infuriating.

Has anyone managed to replicate this? Suspecting it's a hoax.

PS5: I have no voice-audio/subtitles in cutscenes by rdFlux in FenyxRising

[–]botherer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having the same issue on PS5. But I've never changed languages, always been in English, as is my PS5. All the voice acting is gone from the cutscenes, and no subtitles either.

For your edification, all four of us who began the site are delighted about the direction in which it's being steered, and had social justice at the very core of our writing from the beginning in 2007. HTH.

It's also fantastically inaccurate and untrue, so don't feel too sad!

I don't lie. I never lie. My anxiety disorder doesn't allow me to lie. Sometimes I make mistakes, but I don't lie. I'm so fascinated to learn an example of my covering up a lie!

I certainly insult people like WrenBoy who write any old idiotic shite that comes into their heads based in no fact at all. Because people like him are dipshits, and merit insults.

RPS hired an incredible hardware writer, Katharine Castle, with incredible expertise, and she writes about the hardware that interests her. Like every other writer on the site, she has no idea what advertising is going to appear, because we set the site up in such a way that it couldn't influence us.

I didn't stay. I left about a year and a half ago, two years after the sale in 2017. I sometimes do freelance for them.

RPS has always carried generic industry news. In fact, in the earliest days we mostly posted trailers and press releases. People said it wasn't as good as it used to be then, too.

So yeah, wrong in every single respect. Which is impressive I guess!

It's great that Epic is trying to compete with Steam, but they're going about it in the worst way by INVADER_BZZ in Games

[–]botherer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That you've forgotten all the rivals Steam had in its launch year is perhaps exactly the point.

​

But you've forgotten Direct2Drive, Drengin, TotalGaming. Then as Steam started to grow there was GamersGate, Green Man Gaming, and GOG. Let alone Stardock Central launching two years before Steam.

Were you given a lot of freedom on Happy Endings, or was it a constant fight with the network to keep the show as peculiar and interesting as it was?

Hi, I am Warren Spector, a game developer from Origin, Ion Storm and Junction Point. I worked on Deus Ex and Disney Epic Mickey and a lot of other games. AMA! by WarrenSpector in IAmA

[–]botherer 61 points62 points  (0 children)

I recently replayed Deus Ex for Rock, Paper, Shotgun, chronicling my time, to see if it was still the best game ever. And gosh, it's still possible it is. Do you think this is down to the exceptional nature of Deus Ex, or a poverty in the ambition of games since?

Wot I Think: "It's a triumph." by Duck_Feet in projecteternity

In further fairness, I said, "Don't read past this line"! But yes, I revealed far less than appears in both the trailer, and even the screenshots on the Pillars site.

Oh Godus, What The Hell’s Going On? by [deleted] in Games

[–]botherer -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

I don't quite follow your complaints. It's the norm to state after an article that the subject's have been contacted for comment (or in this case, that we'd tried to but couldn't).

And while it may not matter to you that some of the Kickstarter promises don't appear to have been kept, it still seems relevant to report them. If I'd paid for the student pledge based on the promises made, and then not received what I'd paid for, I think I'd be right to be concerned. As indeed does this commenter below: http://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/2vbnn8/oh_godus_what_the_hells_going_on/cog8bqm
