Don't forget there is a rice recall now too on top of the toxic beef. It's getting harder and harder to feed my family when it seems like the only thing safe to eat is grass clippings from my backyard.

Probably not the thing most people were focusing on....but you're rocking those black boots!

Dwarf Fortress? That shouldn't be too hard to just be a peasant in a rural human village for a year...it isn't that different from my current existence.

Man, I loved those old school walls back in middle school. My favorite was the Carnivorous Plant. Wall of Flame is a close second.
Magic the Gathering card named 'Carnivorous Plant'. The art is large Venus flytrap style plants in a forest.

Heck yeah, we all gotta find our own little corner of oddness and unabashedly claim it.

Not to mention lots of gin drinks are just "dump some gin in that glass of ____".

As a potential future Quebec transplant, they can have the leftover energy I have for my beloved perennial losers, the Wild.

Are we going to talk about the fact that this simple tweet had to use AI to be written? The — with no spacing gives it away...unless he's the one person in the world who actually uses the actual character rather than being lazy and opting for a simple - for an interjection.

I could absolutely see myself getting really high and just forgetting to actually put a show on as I watch this.

So something like massive oil fields ignited and left to burn due to lack of ability to extinguish them could easily cause a cooling effect in conjunction with a nuclear strike.

To put a finer point on it - ground burst is worse for actual fallout but the smoke or atmospheric debris is what causes the "winter" part. Think back to events like the 1883 Krakatoa eruption that had global temperature impacts. Important to note, I'm not a qualified expert, just interested.

I am thoroughly excited for what I can only assume is going to be a 12 hour analysis of the set.

I have to ask, how do you discover all these awesome datasets to explore?

I agree with the sentiment, I'd take a story rich game over 'Modern Duty 55' any time...but I do really wish more games devs had the budget and time for accessibility tools so that people who struggle with reading, like my dyslexic son, can more easily engage with the game.

Good luck! Networking is nothing but the blackest of black magic. When I got my cloud cert I'm quite certain every question I missed was a networking one.

I cannot co-sign this statement any more enthusiastically. That devil orb is vile.

I have to immediately try and make a silly rhyme or panic find a silly reference to shoehorn it into or it will be gone before they finish their sentence.

Same, and I don't know why. I should love it but there is just something that makes me bounce off it whenever I try to give it a chance.

Even EU5? I've actually been having a really hard time getting into it after dumping way too many hours into 4.

Spending Valentine's Day with a cute girl laying on my lap is pretty good.

Sounds like a Win Win...plus I love the thoughtfulness you put into the propaganda rather than just "capitalism bad" reflexive comments with no substance on why.

As someone from Minnesota, our state is being occupied by terrorists. The street outside a friend's house was choked with tear gas yesterday. A toddler was used as a pawn in terror. My wife skipped a doctor's appointment because ICE was reported in the area. None of what is reported is hyperbolic.

I disagree. I think it is literally 6 and not 6%.

You don't rep my part of the state (MN01) but keep standing up to these ass-hats and make us all proud!

Every trans person saw this (or some variant) coming from a thousand miles away. Too bad no one listened despite all the excellent writing done warning them.

How ghoulish. Artists deserve to get paid just as us Software Engineers do (although I acknowledge the irony of that statement today).

My experiences using my forced copilot license for work is that it takes longer and more effort to get the GenAI to produce what I need it to than to just write it myself.

But on the flip side, I had to wear noise cancelling headphones once any crying started. Still though, I think we got the better deal here.

Ugh, that is the worst and It really is like clockwork, isn't it? It is 2:00 PM for me and the best I can do to fight it is a preemptive Lunch Nap™️.

How are you so good at this game!? Every time I try for an achievement I get curb stomped.

Targeting the trans allies will dissuade them from being allies or at minimum make them less accessible and unable/unwilling to render aid, thus isolating the trans community more each day. Like predators isolating the vulnerable from a herd, they want us dead with no one to witness or care.

Amazing! All I do on my Supernote is take work notes. I wish I had a fraction of that artistic talent.

Because the Blood Test Lady stole money from rich people and made them look silly. These bros are just enabling the deaths and exploitation of the most vulnerable in society...hardly the same level of evil (/s hopefully obviously)

It may as well be. The list literally says we shouldn't be saying just grammatically accurate words like "unhoused" or use descriptive acronyms like LGBTQIA+. I'm sure they would prefer something like "ancestry preferences" over racism. Don't want to make the centrists feel judged, after all.

1) I can already do that if I am so desperate to attend a work meeting while traveling with Android Auto. 2) We truly live in a corporate hellscape where managers being able to "manage" a worker's every waking minute is the measure of business acumen.

Not a game dev, but an API dev. After one of my first major releases as a newbie, something I tested heavily in non-prod blew up when put to the stress of the real world. It was a good lesson in "anything can happen in production" and took a whole weekend of work for me to get a viable fix.

I literally have done all of these... granted I didn't get my diagnosis until later in life after the "kid" stage was over.

Well, it is up to the task in the sense that it still works...but banking and insurance only use it because it's what their industry was founded on decades ago. I work in healthcare tech and a lot of systems are "stuck" on these old technologies because it's so regulated that it's hard to update.

In my experience, It is easy for very linear programs but once you start doing anything even remotely complex it spirals into millions of lines of spaghetti code. It was meant for the early days of business software so an exec can understand it and not up to task for modern needs.
