  • Even though Apple lost that lawsuit, Samsung most definitely did copy Apple back then. And this is coming from someone who has never, and will never own an Apple product.

    Quite a lot has changed since then. These days Apple products feel extremely outdated, with their square watchfaces and embarrassingly large camera notches and whatnot. It’s embarrassing when compared to modern Android devices.




  • I feel like most people who sing praises for Alyx only do so because it was their first VR game. (a lot of people bought a headset just for it.) It’s decent game, but without VR it’s nothing special.

    Sucks that VR is still a niche product, despite it being an obtainable consumer product for almost a decade now (edit: and affordable for over half a decade now). When the OG Rift and Vive first dropped, I imagined it being as popular as traditional gaming within 5 years. Yet here we are 9 years later and we still don’t have epic, 50+ hour AAA experiences in VR because hardly anyone owns a headset. Every VR game feels like an indie title.


  • Modern pizza originates in the US, so I don’t know why the fuck anyone would go to Italy and expect it to be better.

    To be fair, it was Italian immigrants who invented what we know as pizza today, but Chinese immigrants also brought Chinese food to America as well—and if you go to China expecting the same kind of food there, prepare to be disappointed (especially if you don’t live in an area with a large Asian population. I do so I can assure you that authentic Chinese is completely different. Same for pizza.)

    Edit: Why are you booing me? I’m right.














  • They can’t actually die; they’re just perpetually “starving”.

    Speaking of Neopets, my biggest regret is auctioning off my 20+ year old Bruce Booster Pack for a fraction of its value (a mere 10K NP IIRC; it’s worth over 100K). I thought a low opening bid would start a bidding war, but apparently very few Neopets users actually visit the auction page. Only got one bid. :/
