that's at least a little more than mildly infuriating

I think you misunderstood what I said, I'm agreeing with you on the mental gymnastics, but the argument you put out wasn't exactly the best when given to the PoV of the gymnast; they're avoiding ingesting tap water in favor of bottled, but they ingest it regardless, unless they wash everything with bottled water like a very crazy person

and didn't expect to respond again about this crazy hypothetical person that lives rent free in both our minds, but I'm going to evict that person right now for my own sanity

to the ackchyuallies here: I know, but relax and enjoy the mental image of the fiction

I'm not defending bottled water, but in regards to the shower argument, there's a reason things are rated for topical use vs food grade

the better argument is someone drinking bottled water while using tap water to wash their foods

and no other prints around, so the cat came out and, of course, immediately went back in

another reason I heard is it's also another tool to give the company wiggle room to say they're not in the best state they could be, that there's still room for growth. under the current system, companies have to keep growing and keep appearing to have the potential for growth, or die

okay, I'll concede, my scope also was pretty limited. I still stand by not trusting the public with deciding what's the best use of AI, when most people think what we have now is anything more than statistics supercharged in its implementation.

I still go back to older consoles/handhelds because of some of their libraries, and, judging from releases, publishers do, too

high fidelity doesn't equal pretty graphics; it's just a chosen art style. the problem surrounding all this MK switch stuff is they had to compromise on their art style, and make it much much less cohesive with the original intent, to get it to run on the system. An MK designed with the switch as a high priority would be a very different-looking game

given that, 3/10 is still a meme score meant to drive traffic to their site

you also don't have to understand how 5g works to know it spreads covid /s

point is, I don't see how your analogy works beyond the limited scope of only things that result in an immediate loss of life
