what annoys me about explaining evolution to people who don’t think it’s real is that everyone’s idea of how it works seems to be from this

The central joke of the Ulysses Ogre meme hinges on the Ogre holding themselves to unreasonable standards by expecting to fully grasp one of the most famously difficult works of the 20th Century after only a single reading, which just doesn't work if you substitute your favourite video game, because frankly, your favourite video game is not Ulysses – but to be fair, the overwhelming majority of books are not Ulysses either. There's probably a video game somewhere out there that's as textually challenging as Ulysses, and it's probably some random-ass RPG Maker game from 2006 with an author whose name is a dick joke and a present fandom of approximately eleven people.

If nothing else, I think the Steam Deck has been a positive development because having a fixed-spec target platform that can't be dismissed by insisting that a two-year-old GPU is obsolete and a formal certification process for being allowed to claim compatibility with that target is demonstrably encouraging publishers to actually let developers optimise their shit.

The worst thing about toner cartridges is that they weren't supposed to be a scam. They're the only thing that makes it feasible for non-expert users to own laser printers at all. The whole point of making all of the most fragile and fiddly components of the printing train part of the cartridge rather than part of the printer is so that you can just drop off the cartridge for servicing rather than having to lug the whole printer down to the shop every month to get its dinguses realigned. Unfortunately, the manufacturers figured out that, thanks to the artificially depressed cost of plastic, it's slightly cheaper for them to throw away the old cartridge and sell you a new one than it is to service and refill the existing one, so they went and deliberately ruined a good idea in exchange for a few extra percentage points on a balance sheet.
