Kolli,

Haha, I think it’s from Remedy game studios, the “biggest” game studio in Finland and they sent Larian a award for their own pick for GOTY.

The joke goes a few layers deep. It’s a nod to Finnish sauna tradition by sending them a sauna ladle. (used to throw the water at the hot stones)

Secondary, it seems to be comically large.

Thirdly an the note says, Remedy’s own game was competing for GOTY and got beaten by BG3. Seems like a self-deprecating/humble joke in that regard.

Fourthly, it’s laughably low-effort, like a practical joke.

Edit: Read the letter more closely and it addresses the object as “Sauna scoop”, which is correcter term for it anyway.

Kolli,

I can read only one word somewhat from the sid. of the scoop which reads KOSKELA. It’s a Finnish last name. Don’t know why it’s there.

Kolli,

With quick googling about KOSKELA BRO… which reads on the scoop, it must refer to KOSKELA BROTHERS, which are characters of Remedy’s game series Alan Wake. I also guess the start of the text is SPONSORED BY, bringing the whole message to SPONSORED BY KOSKELA BROTHERS. Yet another joke.

Kolli,

Yes, he did have a few week period where he aggressively sought to become female. Then ig it passed.

Kolli,

After your comment there was an advancement to the story where the fork maintainer did ask for the feet pic payment but was denied.

Kolli,

Have you tried MPV Android? 3 second search gave something.

Kolli,

I find it wild that people expect the dev to step up. He makes games and it’s unfair to expect him to be/do any more.

Kolli,

a bit of a exaggeration which invalidates the kernel of wisdom :|

Kolli,

rookie mistake

Kolli,

Seems like not the only bell curve you are in the left of.

Kolli,

Who is your provider, Lebowski?

Kolli,

It’s okay to not know what decentralisation mean, but it’s weird you haven’t picked it up yet. Even more so, why did you attend to survey if you don’t know what it even asks about?

Kolli,

Yeah, Sam is great. What is your fav vid?

Kolli,

But what’s a gentleman’s got to do to get some eel reproductive organs, though?

Kolli,

As a headline skimmer "Jonathan Blow … … … … 35 " gave me a teeny tiny scare :D

Tails 6.0 Released (tails.net)

Evidently Tails 6.0 released over a week ago, and my version never prompted me for an upgrade (maybe because it’s a major upgrade, I don’t know.) In any case, I wanted to first of all spread the word about Tails, and second of all mention this: My one problem with Tails is that it had some outdated software (such as KeePass...

Kolli,

Puhu suomea.

Kolli,

Holy shit. :D I was only kidding. You bot or what?

Kolli,

Well, impressive. 👍

Kolli,

This is incorrect.

Swearing is undoubtedly poor language in the sense that it’s not socially all acceptable.

Also it being versatile doesn’t make it any good, rather other way around. That swear word being used rather than other descriptive terms is use of poor language and sign of poor vocabulary.

Also the study is about knowing many swear words rather than using them to fill in all gaps in sentences.

Kolli,

According to social norms originating from bronze age mythology and oppressive edicts derived therefrom. Do try to keep up with modern society.

Are you trying to claim that swearing is socially acceptable in modern society? You wouldn’t swear in your customer service profession and you wouldn’t swear to someone you respect.

That makes no sense. The definition of successful use of language is expressing what you intend to express in the ideal manner for your specific purposes. A lack of versatility would hamper any efforts to achieve that goal.

I would argue as someone who doesn’t natively speak english that words with double- or multimeanings (versatile) are hard to learn and interpret in language. They pave way to misunderstanding and by nature limit the richness of the language.

Only when used improperly, like with any word.

I would claim that using swear words are mostly if not always used inproperly.

But writing this response I’m increasingly willing to blame cultural differences. My mother language is very hard to learn and in it you would add a suffix to add versatility to a word. I’d say we come from different places and respect different things in language.

As per your suggestion:

TL;DR: Shit happens, rally helps. Good talk, have a good one.

Kolli,

Yeah, Finnish.

I don’t respect your hostility in the discussion. This comment reinforces that you and me merely have fundamentally differing opinions about the matter and there will be no conclusion.

As for the rigidity of the discussion: I’m of the school of thought that strives for efficient communication and of the paradigm that things should argue, not people. I’m in this to learn stuff and learn about your opinion, not to clash with you.

But I’ve come to realize that internet forums generally are filled with people who get empowered with argumentation errors and thus attempt at civilized discussion tends to be fools errand.

You seem to have interesting opinions and so if you’d like to continue this discussion further, my Matrix handle is in the bio.

Kolli,

… And stay hydrated?

Kolli,

Onnittelut! :D

It’s a great signoff, though. :P

Kolli,

I went down a rabbit hole, thanks!

Kolli,

It’s obvious. He has soldier’s training.
