Pooping at work? That’s about the only reason to not have time to proofread.

Boss makes a dollar, I don’t see a dime, that’s why I poop on company time.

I’m waiting for that inevitable margin call. Followed by Twitter being repossessed. At that point it will probably be sold off for parts.

It was one of the reasons I switched. That and my favorite mod manager is working on a Linux native version. It’s not done yet, but it’s good to play other games from time to time.

Valheim is pretty brutal, but also highly moddable.

That was Rush Limbaugh, may he rot in piss.

And the second they get it, they reinvent IP law, but in an even more restricted form.

Well, security through obscurity never really did work

Another distro that’s easy to get going for gaming is Garuda.

Also, the easiest way to switch to any distro is to get a USB drive and install a program called Ventoy. Then you throw your install iso onto the Ventoy drive, boot from USB, and you’re good to go.

As a tip, pick up an external drive large enough for your Steam library. Then in Steam, you right click on each game and select Manage/Back up game files.

Doing it this way will save you days of downloading.

XP might actually be somewhat safe to connect by now. Most of the viruses and worms have updated past it by now.

I’m counting game installations. Then there’s the fact that NoScript seems to reset every time I swap operating systems, so now I have to figure out what I’ve allowed and blocked before…

Then there’s the pruning of random shit that was auto installed. Some of that shit can take days to find.

But most of the pain is when I try to do X, and need to find a program that will do it. This happens in Windows and Linux, and either will have programs that work, but then I have to find the program and learn it, and then let enough time pass where I have to do it all over again.

The most recent example was a map making program for my Table Top RPG obsession. One program that’s a go-to under Windows (with possible Linux capability?) is called AutoRealm. Which hasn’t updated since 2013… But it’s still one of the most powerful fractal mapping programs I’ve ever lightly used.

I’ve swapped back and forth between Linux and Windows a half dozen times now, and I can honestly say, both are a bitch to set up from a clean install.

Even with guides and autoloading scripts and whatnot, it’s still going to be a few days of pain while you try to figure out what else needs to be installed to use the computer the way you want to use it.

Or that’s how it works for me.

I mostly just wish more games were linux native.

A bucket list is usually “a list of things to do before you die” i.e. kick the bucket.

I can see how your use is correct, but it also doesn’t feel right, which is 90% of language.

To my ear, saying that Futurama is simply “on the list” just sounds better.

Another option would be saying that the show is in your backlog.

But, use bucket list enough, and sooner or later that will sound correct. Because that’s also how language works.

More than one test failed.

The Tesla failed the heavy rain and the heavy fog tests.

There’s zero excuse to fail either of those tests. But the Tesla killed the kid both times.

The wall test was just to show that the Tesla cannot put together optical clues.

The other two tests that the Tesla failed were more realistic. Heavy fog and heavy rain.

It failed both.

If your self driving car cannot handle weather, then it’s not self driving at all.

Actual lidar isn’t fooled by weather. Shitty optical only cameras are.

That hinges entirely on whomever holds the loan.

If it was one person, then no way. But it’s not just 1 person, it’s more than 100.

There are investment groups in that list, and ties to the Saudis and Russians.

The investment groups might be legally required to margin call if the stock price falls too far, but none of them will hold the full loan.

To be fair, every Air Force base had higher than average Reddit usage back in the day. It was one of the few websites not blocked by default. I don’t know when that changed, Because I was out before then.

But yes, there are also the propaganda teams.

Arch as a first distro is an interesting choice.

But likely fr better than my first distro, Slackware.

I had known about the Church of the Subgenius and then heard that there was a Linux distro based on that…

At the time, the wikis were not really up to the task…

These days I run Mint on my writing laptop, and unfortunately am back to Windows on my gaming rig.

But might swap back to Gaurda for gaming…

Hardness isn’t the best thing to have in armor. In fact, extreme hardness means extreme brittleness.

Tensile strength is more desirable in armor. That’s the sort of strength that a string or rope, or Kevlar will have.

Those can stretch a bit before breaking.

Kevlar will stretch a bit when catching a bullet, this does a few things, but importantly it slows the bullet before stopping it.

So this new material will likely show extreme tensile strength rather than hardness.

Notch was primed for that shit long before Minecraft took off. He posted early builds to 4chan, and was an active shitposter there.

The money just made him stop paying attention to anything else.

The problem is, Brian Thompson was the CEO of UnitedHealthcare, but he wasn’t actually in charge. No that would be Stephen J. Hemsley, the Executive Chairman at UnitedHealth Group.

Yup, first and foremost, figure out your gameplay loops.

Get that right and you can pretty it all up later.
