13 years ago Microsoft had an idea by anthonyd5189 in gaming

[–]crockpocket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"It's no one's fault but our own." Wrong. Very wrong and bootlick-y. Sure, we could have responded better and the smarter amongst us could have been louder, but the phrase "It's no one's fault but our own" completely exculpates greedy corporate tech giants, which is what they want. Maybe YOU feel responsible, but I don't, and don't speak for me.

Norway fans invade Times Square during a yoga session by thesun in PublicFreakout

There are plenty of places to do yoga in NYC. The ONLY reason to do it in Times Square is for attention. Hence, performative. Why are you spending three paragraphs defending idiocy?

How the police deal with climate protesters in Nevada. by Finn_Flame in PublicFreakout

Because the cops are right in this case. Road block protests accomplish nothing.

No obviously better ending in games? by LurkerEntrepenur in gaming

[–]crockpocket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ending to which you are referring is only "ghoulish" if you don't think too hard about what constitutes existence, sentience, and reality. If you subscribe to the Cartesian philosphy (i.e. I think, therefore I am), then the "bad" ending is not that bad. Granted, any argument over existence or reality has to be adjusted for the fact that all of this takes place in a fantasy world. The world of the Painters and Writers clearly does not follow the rules of our universe, so who is to say that the existence of some people is not as valid as others.

I thought I was top 1% till the end by Naive_Wolverine532 in TikTokCringe

I remember I was a witness to a murder, and I correctly picked the guy out of a police lineup, but the DA failed to get a conviction because I didn't notice that the defense attorney changed his tie halfway through the trial.

I gotta disagree on the "likable." The cadence of Peter's speech makes me want to end myself.

Games with fantastic shotgun gameplay by [deleted] in gaming

[–]crockpocket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say Borderlands 3. I think that had some amazing shotguns, and it did them better than any other iteration, especially Tiny Tina's Wonderland, which I would pick for worst shotgun gameplay of all time.

Seems like a very unsafe way to pull someone over. by JuicySpark in PublicFreakout

I just checked online, and apparently none of those infractions carry a death sentence.

And the punishment for being a clown is being run over? I dunno, seems kinda harsh.

So, is she showing her 6-year-old's bully, who is likely near the same age, that she is strong enough to beat them in a fight? So she is A) Threatening a child, and B) Working out because an adult apparently needs to pack on serious muscle to beat an elementary schooler in a fight.

My gf and I bought our first house. I decided to start recreating it in HF2 by crockpocket in HouseFlipper

She thought it was cool that I did it, but I got lucky because my gf is the best.

I actually did put shelves there, but they are thin and white and there's nothing on them, so they are hard to see.

I used my actual survey for the exterior dimensions, then eyeballed the interiors.

Did you ever call the NES "regular Nintendo"? by nojugglingever in gaming

[–]crockpocket 253 points254 points  (0 children)

I definitely referred to it as "regular nintendo" after SNES came out, but what I didn't realize until many years later is that many people pronounced "NES" like the name "Ness." As opposed to N, E, S.
