  • It definitely had more games! Was very satisfied when the previews ended where they did, would’ve been amazing to have more but it was already so much,

    Absolutely 10/10 protection, added a fair number of games to my wishlist, and even bought a couple. And It was fun trying to guess what games were before their titles came up.

    Is that deep rock galactic going to be another free content update? At first I thought they were finally integrating what they learned from deep rock galactic survivors (and that would explain why they’ve never thought too long on multiplayer), but that has to be way too much for just a content update, right? Jeez coffee stain continues to knock it out of the park.






  • I assume “tutorial boss” is the one you’re required to kill on any new character, before you can access the first city, the one that any first time player might have trouble with, but once you’ve done it once it’s never going to take you down again.

    Edit,

    The death in the video they posted was the first “boss” after the first city, also pretty pathetic to lose to, but not a required (tutorial) fight. Seeing his mechanics there it wouldn’t surprise me if the hillock (or whatever his poe2 counterpart is called) killed him.

    Second edit

    Musk died to one of the game’s tutorial bosses due to a bad connection, which subsequently concluded the stream, ending another sad, weird data point in the Elon Musk fake gamer saga.

    The entire thing was a publicity stream for how reliable star link was, seems like if he’s dieing to early game bosses because of connection issues star link might not be suitable for gaming on…

    Last edit, he died 3 times to the tutorial boss, at that point it’s connection issues and lack of skill.

    My medicine is fighting misinformation, guess what the source of that is here?

    I’m not doing this for you, you’ve shown yourself beyond saving.

    I’m doing this for the poor person who read your first comment, said, ‘yeah that sounds correct’ and gave you an up tick.

    My they, and others who stumbled upon it, read through our dialogue here and realize one of us has logic, and the other has “go take your meds”.

    Nice to see you fall back on the person you’re talking with is in need of medication, rather than considering they’ve made a point you should consider.

    I wonder if it’s projection, but I shouldn’t consider malice when you’ve repeatedly shown me you’re probably just stupid.

    Johnny has 3 and 4, Billy wants 2, johnny gave Billy two but billy wanted apples and Johnny only had dollars and bullets,

    Fortunately Johnny gave Billy the two bullets so Billy wouldn’t have to live in an idiotic world without labeled data

    Go back to grade school or pull your head out of your ass, you’ve either been deprived of an education or you’re deliberately ignoring it to bait me into wasting my time teaching you fundamental mathematics.

    Okay,

    There’s this thing called the order of operations

    And seeing as how you don’t know about it, it makes sense that you won’t know the difference between square miles and miles squared.

    Please check out a junior high school math text book before bothering to argue on the Internet.

    Edit i see where you’ve made the mistake,

    If it’s (3+4)^2 then you’ve failed to combine like units, something they teach you about in kindergarten.

    "the Louisiana purchase added 838,000 square miles to the United States, tell me, was it 1/4 the size of the United States, or the 100x the surface area of the sun?

    One of those are square miles, the other is miles squared.

    But I don’t know why I expect you to understand this now.

    I think square feet is popular because many things dealt with aren’t squares, but a square foot is generally small enough to be a good measure, while also large enough to not be an unreasonably large number. When square feet are too small we move to yards (meters), acres, hectares or miles.

    A house or apartment isn’t usually square, so how would you apply feet (or meters) squared to it? While a property line might well be equally long on each edge, so you might see it in feet squared, but also that number looks A LOT smaller, so you’ll often see square feet or meters

    Did you not notice the unit modifier in the my second phrase???

    Let me spell it out for you.

    3 (three) ’ (feet) ^2 (squared)

    You’d have me repeating myself like a monkey, which is, NINE.

    3 (three) sq (square) ft (feet) is THREE.

    but I suspect you’ll disagree at at this point I’ll move on, my only sadness is there was a person out there who agreed with your original argument that they were the same.

    Person behind this account, at this point you’re being deliberately dense.

    Find something better to do with your time

    Those are the exact same thing because they are the exact same thing.

    I understand English is difficult to parse, I hope you’ll get there some day.

    I guess you’re the person who this comic is written with thoughts of

    Maybe when you’re buying real estate or property some day it’ll click for you, in the mean time please ask for help before writing units in scientific papers, or interpreting those papers, and definitely don’t try to spread the results of those papers to others, lest we end up with world consuming insects.
