Yeah, I was just thinking while typing that I've got a super soft beanie I'm going to break out before winter sets in.

I've never seen one of those hats used IRL, but I get it.
If my room gets really cold, I can burrow in blankets, but since I'm not one of those weirdos who can sleep with a covered nose/mouth, my head has to stay stuck out and will still be cold.
I usually find a clean sweatshirt to hide the top of my head under or, in desperate times, origami my blankets up from behind my shoulders to tuck it in.
weirdly antisocial
Completely forgets (or ignores) the fact that some people just don't like their lives and avoiding thinking about it is what helps them get through the day. And that others legitimately have nothing new going on that they can discuss with those outside their inner circles. Like, I'm not going to tell someone I haven't seen in a couple years all about the adult novel I'm looking forward to releasing in December, or that time I moved and nothing about it went well to the point it was mildly traumatic, so yeah, they're going to get a "meh, not much. keeping busy. work and stuff. you?" at the most generous.
It's hard to get across "no really, I find predictability comforting and/or am not willing to share the personal projects I fill my time with for various reasons."
The fact that they even tried to pretend it wasn't retroactive because they didn't charge for old install counts. Like, does it charge games that were released under different terms? Yes? Then it's retroactive!
I think most of the people opposed to this post are confusing "I don't need my whole feed to be about these things" with "I'm against these things."
Are you capable of checking the context of a statement before replying to it? The quality of the advice was not at issue. You asked why the person was hostile. Being an asshole begets hostility.
Couldn't possibly be because that person is acting like it's our fault we're too weak to have it too with the dismissive "bub" and the cry to "get your shit together."
I got my first one of these when I was 21 and in the best shape of my life. Accidents, injuries, and unpreventable diseases happen, and acting like your comparative good luck means you've made better choices than those who have been less lucky by implying they've been "unhealthy as hell" is kind of gross.
It's pretty much all he does unless he finds an Obra Dinn-tier darling.
Except for Gollum, he was weirdly defensive of that for a game that pulled every AAA anti-consumer trick in the book without at least the decency to be bland.
1.0 release means going from "we hope this works, but if not, be patient because we're still working on it and let us know so we can try to fix it" to "we're pretty confident this works as intended well enough to make it an official feature with announcements and PR."
This goes for all software.
It's weird to call it misleading. Yes, it might have worked, but it was a testing relationship, not an official one.
Consider yourself lucky and walk away like you just dodged a bullet
