On: Best command-line-only video games (2019)

[TheRealPomax]

I do recall starting my comment with the explicit note that I'm nitpicking.

If, to you, "command line games" just means "something I can run while in a terminal" then cool, but that's not technically what that term means, and we're technical people here on HN. Especially those of us who use (any flavour of) the terminal day in day out.

I think the bigger concern is that distinguishing the terms here is more interesting.

It’s all I use but you can call it the “word window” for all I give a shit, nitpicking is just a synonym for argumentative+stubborn.

Inb4 you nitpick the definitions.

[jasonm23 → pastram_i]

Jumping onto a thread which you see as argumentative+stubborn, to point that out... including "for all I give a shit"

Is a synonym for?

Potential growth / reflection opportunity.

There's nitpicking and then there is just making up technical definitions of words that aren't widely shared.
