I love video games, but I told my cousin not to go into that field because of how terribly game developers are treated/paid, and that if your plan is to make an indie hit like balatro or Minecraft, you probably would have better luck playing the lottery. But I'm not really in that industry, I've just read a lot of articles. If anyone is actually in that line of work, would you say my warning was accurate?

I've got good news! The full quote is "Great minds think alike, but fools seldom differ."

So it can still apply to you, it just means you're calling OP a fool too 😄

I agree with this image, and I'm quite curious to see what "rich" tastes like... But I feel like the mechanics of this picture took me a second or two longer than it should to understand.

Edit: like are they balancing their unicycles on the larger cylinder? They must have really good balance to manage that for more than a second. And if that is true, what happens if they fall forwards? I see the danger if them falling backwards, but does that mean they just can't fall forwards?

Haha, sorry about that, but we only do it with ideas we really like and want to spend more time thinking about, if that helps 😄

Without his help, computer science would be wirth-less.

Reminds me of the very last credits gag they did in Community; Community, the board game https://youtu.be/lMW58MiSLe0?si=-yDzatobk-lAZOwv

I finally got a steam deck and I can't decide what to play on it. Most recently I dusted off Hand of Fate 2 and I'm having fun with that all over again.

Is this game just another crypto ripoff? Or is this the future and I'm just finally totally out of touch?

I've read a little bit about Web3 and I both don't understand it and I hate it.

Oh man, I haven't thought about RvB in so long, thank you 😂

"The Sarge is still a Lieutenant? Oh. My. God. The teleporter sent me back in time!"

Experiencing something that is truly novel to me, whether it's a culture, a food, a story, or any other thing, is such an exciting and rewarding feeling. That's a big one.

Spending time with people I love, and feeling loved in return from then will never get old, that's certainly up there at the tippy top.

And certain physical experiences are great too. Delicious meals, comfy pajama, music that brings tears to my eyes.

These are a few of my favorite things.

If you're playing a game of pick-up basketball, and your team is in the lead, and some guy on the other team says "Nevermind, I don't want to lose. Give me my ball, I going home." I'm curious how you would react. He owned the ball, and you signed no contract at the start of the game, so, what's your take on his action?
