You: yeah but they draw good

I remember when I was playing Donkey Kong Bananza and the framerate shit itself when too much gold was on screen, that was like, oh fuck yes video games are *back*.

lol. lmao, even. lowkey i think AI literacy is important for the layman to avoid getting addicted to the software but i wouldn't expect a guy who threw his phone in the pool to cool it off to think in such nuanced terms

I wish you could follow tags.

Splatoon not having to balance any weapons for pvp

getting pissed off that everytime i see the word Pragmata it has discourse next to it, like everyone agrees this is the most manufactured thing of all time please just ignore it, this is a cry for people to be more reasonable

There's a bit in a Super Best Friends Play video (I think they're playing Deadspace) where the guys discuss "how we used to think, wow, graphics will never get better than this".

Ancient Scandinavian Saying: is it 'et' or 'en' in this case?

Ah, I'm starting to see why his win was a bit contentious then.

No Leqaa? Robbed!

The Bombe Alaska had a bit of leaking, but the insides were solid and they probably have some allowances for having to wait a while for your turn.

#MasterChefAU.

It's not even the only "using a blowtorch to meringue with potentially leaky insides" incident of the night.

#MasterChefAU

I've seen like one episode of the American version and ours is definitely better than theirs. I didn't realize it was Finland popular.

Yeah he was kicking himself for messing up something he cooks all the time in the narration earlier.

I'm not much of a cook but I loved the plating part when I did Home Ec. as an elective, so I have to say I love the presentation of everything this episode... Especially Leqaa's honeycomb sugar thing, that's nuts.

I guess if your plan is already to pipe some cream on the top, that hides the hole and makes it look seamless (even on the bottom) when you lift it up.

Fuck I could devour a whole fried fish right now, that looks gorgeous.

#MasterChefAU

In my continuing "bad at faces", Grace is the sponge-cake lady, yeah?

[Googles to double check] A type of maize that's a very dark, bluish sorta color.

Can someone just tell me if we like people or not. [pointing at the screen] Do we like this one?

#MasterChefAU

We've got Finnish Subtitles?

I think the entire point of using an ice-cream machine is putting in whatever the hell flavors you want.

I've missed liveblogging Masterchef. It's nice knowing other people are enduring the stupid ads together with me.
