The part that confuses me is: How can multiple people work on overlapping bits of code at the same time, and the Git manager (or whatever you call it) just handles it all without breaking everything?

Given how bad so many people are at washing their hands (if they even wash at all), I kind of wish this was a real policy. At the very least, there should be a designated hand washing supervisor for the employees at restaurants.

I’ve worked in the industry on and off for many years; on far too many occasions I’ve seen not only improper washing technique, but also handling cooked food, then taking out the trash/touching a door handle, then going back to handling food without a glove change. And then contaminating the gloves by touching the same part that touches food when they do change them. It’s extremely common and happens in every restaurant I’ve worked at. Good thing we have immune systems.

I was raised by one, which was so bizarre because he was an otherwise intelligent an articulate person. Could have easily been a college professor but instead chose to waste his time on religion.

He claims he never stopped believing, but when the world didn’t actually end on October 21, 2011, he picked up drinking and smoking and started wasting money on $20 scratcher tickets. Stopped reading the Bible every day as well, and eventually turned a MAGA republican near the end. Then on September 30, 2021 he was killed by an intoxicated driver, while crossing the street to buy a scratcher and cigarettes, a few days after brain surgery.

This is what religion does to you. It gets you fucking killed.

What are you talking about? The graphics look practically identical to the original.

This fucking sucks because I really like Cities: Skylines II. It’s a fine sequel and I much prefer it to the original. Damn shame it got review bombed. I never had issues and it runs great on my machine.

Déjà vu! I thought they already did that?

First Amazon, then Cloudflare. I’m glad this shit only goes down when I’m asleep.

It’s almost as if having two companies control half the web is a bad idea…

Especially if you have that mod that disables traffic despawning, along with that realistic building population mod. Build one skyscraper without having a robust public transit system already in place, and it’ll bring your city to its knees.

It all comes down to Japanese peoples’ beliefs. They see modding their games as a shameful behavior because they compare it to plagiarism. As ridiculous as it is, they see it as stealing their ideas instead of coming up with your own. In their eyes you should be making your own game from scratch instead of ressurecting theirs.

It’s the same reason why Nintendo is so god damn evil. In their eyes they’re doing the honorable thing by suing their own customer base.

Bitcoin saved me from losing everything. You’d have to be a god damn fool to claim that it doesn’t have its uses. Investing when bitcoin was worth $19K was the smartest decision I ever made. You’ll never convince me that it’s a scam.

Couldn’t agree more. Proof of Stake is the future of crypto.

I don’t want a console. I need to be able to hack, mod, and pirate my games as I see fit.

Yes but you could easily replace the battery. Going by the description, it sounds like the battery is going to be internal. Now of course video game controllers have been historically easy to open, but it’s not going to be as easy as simply popping out the battery and popping in a new one like the XBOX.

My biggest complaint about the Steam Deck is that it’s too underpowered, so yes, I would in fact love a $1000 Steam Machine. Can we have a $3000 one too, please? I want a luggable PC that can handle games with RT in 4K 120Hz.

You shouldn’t have an Instagram account, either. Meta is more evil than Google.

Crypto is faster. Even if you believe it’s a scam, you can always just buy $20K worth of ETH and then just cash it out immediately. Would take less than 2 minutes.

Nvidia’s shit Linux support is why I’ve been stuck with Windows despite how badly I want to switch to Arch. You get no Nvidia Control Panel, no Nvidia App, no ShadowPlay, no RTX HDR, no 3D Settings panel; basically the only thing you can do with an Nvidia GPU on Linux is render 3D graphics. Which is fine if all you do with your PC is CAD or non-competitive SDR gaming. But I paid for all these extra features and so I’d like to use them.

Can’t even switch to an AMD GPU, either, because I like Ray Tracing too much, so I’m stuck waiting on Nvidia to get their shit together (or AMD to finally release a GPU that can handle RT @ 4K120) before I can finally ditch Microsoft for good.

Yeah but when you make $16/hr you can’t afford an extra $700/mo. Doesn’t matter how cheap things are when the pay is garbage.

No we’re not. My family can’t afford to spend $700 more a month on groceries, so we just don’t get many groceries anymore. Ramen is making a comeback in this household in a big way.

What the fuck do they even do? I thought they were supposed to scan the ingredients in your fridge, then tell you what’s about to expire and what recipes you can make. But apparently they can’t even do that, so what purpose do they serve that I can’t already accomplish by bringing my phone into the kitchen?

Can they at least monitor the temperature across different areas of the fridge, or connect to my power meter like my thermostat can and optimize power usage to be lower when electricity is more expensive? Or are they literally just an Android tablet glued to a fridge?
