Its interesting once you learn more about ecology and biodiversity... Those bugs / animals you used to hate are suddenly awesome.

That said, invasive wasps where I live a devastating native and endemic species so....

I thought it was "hating love/romance" or something for a second.

People "this game is so unrealistic, there's no way these biomes would be this close and distinct"

Also people "flying through space for weeks to visit a baren rock is so bullshit and biting"

I feel like I should know this, as a I've been a pc gamer and extra legal aquirer for several decades... But I'm not actually sure what DRM means?

I feel like the recoil due to low gravity and no atmosphere on the moon would make heavy firepower guns extremely hard to use

He already admitted that messiah kind of sucks from an adaptation standpoint. I personally agree. Maybe he's straight up rewriting parts of it? Will be interesting to see, I trust him though Mofo can't seem to miss

I think it's more they love the game, but hate a specific thing that happens in an update, like their favourite character/ability gets rightfully nerfed, so they throw a tantrum by giving negative review.

Omg I love that episode too. I quote that grammar robot so the time "shuddapa yer face" "shut up your face"

I also am a software developer and use 123 fake street for testing forms all the time.

I'm surprised at how late it was, would have assumed it was pre double digits

I remember as a kid I was really into fantasy things and my dad told me about LOTR and thought I'd like it. I'd read the hobbit for school already and really enjoyed that... But LOTR was painful, I didn't even complete the first book

I've seen his fabric of the the cosmos series and loved it. How does elegant universe rate?

Yes and no. Similar with apps, you can say "well if you're not paying/seeing adds then we lose nothing by you not visiting", but, depending on their growth stage, it's very hard to grow and get investors without a sizable audience.

Say you're a startup. If you have 10k people and you ignore ad blockers and people who don't play subscriptions. Then you start preventing people with ad blockers and no subscriptions from your platform and it drops to 1k... You lose investment pulling power.

The effect is amplified, or much worse, if you actually require user generated content as well

I am extremely, cautiously, excited about this.

Trailer looks really promising
