I just want to point out how incredible it is that in today’s age we have this incredible amount of entertainment available. Even if we apply Sturgeons law that’s still a fill years worth of solid games. He’ll, do it twice. That still means there’s at least 5 bangers in that mess, and I find it incredible that most all of that content is recent!

That’s only because you individually have been made responsible for the election. Every one else was at the meeting and didn’t want the job. Good luck, and don’t choose wrong!

As the opposite to this it takes me a solid month to get to a point where getting up for work at 8 doesn’t kill me. It takes all of an afternoon nap to flip back to my preferred sleep pattern of 2am to 10am. I CAN get up early, me and my meatsuit really don’t seem to want to though.

And then promptly leave early because it waits and ‘corrects’ time at a different random stop in the middle of no where? That happens a lot here.

Properly sharp knives are indifferent to that which they cut. Be that your steak, or you, their job is to cut.

A properly shaperned knife is a wicked, angry, thing. It must be treated with respect, deffarence, and no small part of care. However, they must not be feared; like a wild predator they can sense fear.

Suffice it to say OP was just using some artistic license to show that they got a new old knife and nicked themselves.

To quibble, you can’t pop a HID into a reflector housing at all, usually. Halogen and drop in replacement LED have a different focal point than HID bulbs do.

This means if switching to HIDs you also need to replace the entire housing so it will focus the light correctly. No amount of adjustment will be correct if the beam isn’t focused properly.

I would like to point out its not even we. Its upper management and ‘the stockholders’. Everyone from the peon to lower management knows that people don’t work continuously for their shift. I doubt anyone can work continuously for that long and not go crazy.

But the reward from mid and management and above for completing your work is more work. Which is great for them since you completing more work means they get bonuses.

Seconding this, and its a great game but only if you do like games where there is a story line, but its up to you to find it.

Don’t comment what a line is doing. Instead, write your code, especially names for variables, constants, classes, functions, methods and so on, so that they produce talking code that needs no comments.

Over and over and over again in my experience this just doesn’t work. Readable code does not substitute for comments about what the code should be doing.

Seconding this, I can’t think of a time that I’ve actually had windows respect my configured update window.

I’d also like to point out how annoying it is that manually hitting the update button doesn’t seem to do anything. If I hit the button I want to dedicate the full system resources to updating right now, not just keep doing what it was doing but add a skinny thing.

Do, do you not talk to, ya know, people? Most people aren’t writing or talking about their dissertation all the time. Some like to talk about things they, ya know, like.

Right, the misogyny of a victim not wanting to interact with the group their victomiser came from. Just like the comic was dealing with, to bad this chain was started from a man cause fuck men I guess?

Wait wait wait, being abused to the point of mistrusting people so much you don’t want to deal with them is now a good thing?

Wait, isn’t that obvious? Its for Elise!

The previous version works pretty darn well under proton (on Kubuntu 23.10 currently). Biggest issue for me is that its designed for controllers.

Okay, but now what about the people that have this part,

none of that means anything when you’ve hit the third month and you’re miserable and anxious and know this is what you’re in for now, everyday

But not this part,

** I’m** at a point in life where I earn a good living

(Emphasis mine)

Unless I misread the tone of your message, its frankly useless and more than little insulting. No shit some jobs suck, but if its the difference between homelessness, or going hungry that’s not a choice at all.

Strong disagree, under DST I get to experience some sunlight in then evenings. Under Standard time I get to watch the sun come up through the window and set through the window.

Out of curiosity what do you feel when you finish a book?

You just watch the shit if you think it’s interesting and you feel like it. There’s no “investment” there to worry about.

There absolutely is an emotional investment in a show that I find interesting. If that show ends before it completes its story it does annoy me and is a drag on starting something new.

I for one disagree, DST > Standard time. That said though fuck the time change, choose one and stick to it.

I don’t play competitive games so I don’t need the extra shooting accuracy. What I have found is that the higher refresh rate has made panning maps in RTS or looking around quickly in FPS much smoother. Its an overall nicer experience, but not really any better gaming than at 60hz.
