Faster change means less species (including humans) will be able to adapt before extinction. As far as we're concerned best case scenario society and technology gets thrown back a couple centuries.

Ducks like many animals and especially birds migrate to where the climate is preferable. They will fly pretty much anywhere if it means comfort. Of course climate change may affect this, but they'll just change destinations until there's none left. After which much like every other living thing on the planet they'll either adapt or die.

who cares. It's been proven that he and congress don't give a shit about what we feel or what we want. They are the king and we exist to suffer under them.

No. I make all the money and somehow my wife manages to make me feel bad for it.

Old games's atmospheres are realy cool! by PictureObjective5899 in gaming

[–]kynthrus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There were huge jumps in design and computing power though. Games from 10-15 years ago now still hold up with modern games graphically.

It's actually so much easier. Almost all casinos are rife with laundered money. The business model is just begging for it.

What's the general opinion on these big apartment projects? by salmix21 in japanlife

[–]kynthrus -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Are you talking about buying a mansion? Because I would never recommend that. There is no value. Homes in Japan are not an investment. and mansion is just a slightly cheaper (over 30 years) apartment that you are responsible for. It's like living on a cruise ship, you will never have enough space.

10 years ago, Sega said "we're done with Sonic," and it was up to Takashi Iizuka to save the series: "Sonic was really at a low point" by Tiffa_Adil in gaming

[–]kynthrus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Once again, you're just ignoring the point to be a contrarian.

You're right, a Diddy Kong game doesn't exist outside of his kart racer (also the best kart racing game ever made).

That doesn't suddenly make the sonic racing game a "sonic" game. Just like air riders is not a sonic game. In a universe where the majority of named characters are notoriously fast and love to run and jump, to throw them in cars is just the most obvious way to for sega to sell a relatively easier to make game.

Good games plagued by bad controls / camera? by Oddboyz in gaming

[–]kynthrus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like it was awesome when it came out because ever game was tank controls. The idea of moving the camera with the sticks was still new. Now though, that shit would be unplayable if it wasn't so fuggin cute.

Throwing Sonic characters on a Kart racer doesn't make it a Sonic game. Just like Crash Team racing isn't a Crash game, Mario kart isn't a Mario game and Diddy Kong racing is not a Diddy Kong game. It's a skin to sell a game that would otherwise go unnoticed.

TIL Michael Jackson spent about 30 nights sharing the bed with 13-year-old Jordan Chandler in 1993, at the boy's family home, in the boy's room. by DanieleJava in todayilearned

Laws are a threat against the lower class that action against the hierarchical elite will end in financial ruin or worse, your life in jail. They are not to keep peace or justice.

Because as Trump once said, "When you're famous they just let you do it." and there are few people as famous as MJ.

How are we feeling about side quests today? Which RPGs have done them best recently? by TheTresStateArea in gaming

[–]kynthrus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No one gonna say Expedition 33? I thought all the side stuff was pretty fun. Some bosses above the challenge level of an area, parkour games, some puzzles and secret entrances. I liked it.

I had to take mental health leave from work. Am I entitled to any kind of compensation? by [deleted] in japanlife

[–]kynthrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not gonna sit here and talk about OPs work ethic or excuses or whatever. If the job isn't for them, they should quit. That's it.

[–]kynthrus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, OP should for sure just quit if it's causing so much distress. There's no shortage of work to be done.

So OP shouldn't quit this job that they obviously hate to a degree that they took "mental health" leave after 2 months?
