Its like when people say "I can always spot trans people". Yeah you've spotted 100% of the ones you've spotted.

That was remarkably well done how they handled that material, especially with how much of a joke American Dad makes things (which it should its a comedy cartoon but still).

I have to keep checking my weight on the scales and referring against the BMI charts because of that. I am fat right now, but looking back at pictures of myself I was very skinny for a while, but have always felt fat as fuck.

Thats way too busy. Should definitely just keep the rainbow flag. Not every little niche needs specific representation, just have the rainbow as a catchall for any kind of deviation from heterosex

Edit to add : if they want to use them to identify and specify within rallies or amongst themselves somehow then whatever, go for it, as long as we can accept the layman isnt gonna have a clue and cant really be expected to.

Im completely oblivious to any of the enshittification, but like any online game the fun is long gone for most people. Skill floor is way too high. As soon as you join a match youre completely outskilled by everybody and its clear youre nothing but a hindrance to your team.

Your opponents laugh at you and style as hard as they can and your teammates resent your existence, assuming they stick around long enough to make it clear.

Hyper-competitive games are fun for about 3 months and then youre either in or out.

Vandal Hearts on PS1. I think its probably not as good as I remember, but I was a small child and it said the word "Bastard" and that was the most adult media I'd been (unknowingly) allowed to consume. I played that game hard.

In 50 years I reckon the one on the left might have aged better. Based solely on past performance, cutesy stylised graphics of the N64 kick the shit out of almost anything the technically superior PS1 put out.

ETA : Stylised things from ps1 are excluded from that statement. Crash bandicoot and the like.

  1. That scared the crap out of me as a child. Absolutely no warning that it was coming.

Also its not anywhere because the company that made it doesnt exist any more so technically nobody has the rights to sell it. There's going to be a lot more legal technicalities than that but that's basically it.

Mega Man is a pretty sweet example, explained by this blast from the past.

Right now they are. Who knows what tomorrow will bring.

Compared to just 20 years ago we're living in the future. You may not have noticed the progress because you'd expect the future to includes hoverboards.

I guess for the fast food orders there could be some insights with enough volume and associated data (time, frequency, location.)

If someone suddenly started ordering loads or boycotted that one that decided homophobia was the way to go or something you could sense political leaning.

You could get a sense of allergies or vegetarianism.

You may figure out payday

Could maybe get a feel for menstrual cycles

Could figure out someone's route home

Family size maybe.

Probably more idk.
