    Yeah for that reason I feel like there hasn’t been a single game in the last 10 years worth 100% completing. It’s so easy to make a game excruciatingly long that everyone does it. So many stupid achievements that are just raw grind, “do something 1000 times”.






  • I’ve done them with a straight razor and it all comes down to technique and sharp blades. Sharp blades are most likely to cut hair than skin on a flat surface. Make sure to either use a new blade or strop your SR

    Firstly cook your nuts, really steam your boys. You want them very warm and relaxed so you can gently pinch, stretch and wrap the loose skin around your finger. At that point it becomes much more accessible. I recommend doing this sitting. If using a straight razor use a steep, less aggressive angle.

    For weed wacking around a post, pull it tight and if its too slippery, use a single slip of toilet paper to hold on. Once everything is in tension you may tread carefully with your razor(s). You may need to pull it in many directions to reach every spot.

    That will get 50-70% of hair. For the rest I recommend squatting over a mirror. Again, make sure to pull everything in tension before hand and get everything very hot and steamy. Pubes are like spaghetti, they’re softer when cooked.

    I’ll be honest, we’ve tried so many times to save tf2 and the most we’ve gotten is valve logging in to their TF2 Twitter. The hell is signing a petition and mailing it to their office gonna do?

    Despite the bots the player count is very high and stable. People are still buying keys and items regardless. Plus making games simply isn’t valves business anymore, they’re a games store and a hardware manufacturer, not a studio. Whether tf2 lives or dies doesn’t matter to them, it’s negligible relative to valve.

    I love the game, it’s probably my favorite ever but I’m also a realist. It pains me to say but I don’t think this is gonna go anywhere.

    This is why I avoid them. Just another lie, and guilt trip, to make the consumer spend more money. Dirty their conscious and make them pay to keep it clean.

    The same goes for “eco friendly”/“no emissions” products. Guilt you for killing the planet, and changes nothing themselves.

    I mean, realizing how good the United States is relative to many other countries and especially adversaries does help put things into perspective. Things could be better but at least we have the hope to make things better. Many people don’t have that.



  • Ehhh, not so much. Honestly the rating for carcinogenic substances is very shaky and can be very misleading. Like many things, poison depends on the dose and the same with carcinogens. Bacon is a group 1 carcinogen, and cigarettes are a group 1 carcinogen. Despite the same rating, cigarettes are BY FAR much more carcinogenic.

    For group 2b “possible carcinogens”, it usually coincides with the frequency of the product. For this rating they review what a cancer victim typically eats/consumes/interacts with. Aspartame and many other ingredients, are labeled as possibly carcinogenic, as many victims have eaten them, but there is no strong correlation.

    The problem is however, many of these ingredients are so common that almost everybody eats them. It’s like saying “everybody who drinks water dies, it’s poisonous!”.


  • Sort of, it’s more anti ghosting, or configuring the keyboards circuit in a way so all of the “gamer keys” don’t interfere with each other. Ghosting is when a certain combination of keys are pressed tricks the matrix, activating another key that isnt pressed at all, hence “ghosting”.

    Membrane keyboards generally only have 2 key rollover (sometimes if 2 specific keys are pressed, none else will register). Some gaming keyboards will rearrange the circuit so that these specific combinations aren’t present near WASD. For example on most keyboards, if you press W,A,S, the S key would not register.

    Most of the time I just ignore it. I game a lot, and have a big expensive PC and high refresh monitor but I still game on a model M. Membrane keyboard with 2 key rollover, but it’s never really affected me honestly.
