  • Imagine living in a world where squirrel you startled would jump out of a bush and electrocute people. Or that flower you tried to pick was actually a pokemon and just sprayed you with sarin gas?

    In that world I would empathize with gun nuts. How else will you deal with the 30-50 feral Lechonk that run into my yard within 3-5 mins while my small kids play?













  • Fun fact: video games stop rendering everything the player isn’t looking at. That NPC right behind you that’s following you around? Not rendered until you look at it. There’s also a common technique where scenes at a great distance are rendered with fewer polygons (detail) because the player can’t perceive the full detail.

    In this case, we assume the girlfriend is both far away (out of town) and yet still observing the OP (rendered at all).

    She’s watching you!
