I played a lot of Elite Dangerous until I realized there was not much to do besides “do the profitable thing over and over before it gets nerfed.” And by the time Squadrons came out, I also ran out of fucks to give.

The only game I really liked in VR was Euro Truck Simulator 2 which wasn’t even a VR game.

HTC Vive. Not necessarily this specific tech itself, but VR gaming more broadly. My friend and I were ginning ourselves up for years before it came out. I dropped a lot of money on a gaming rig for it. And when I put the googles on… I fucking hated it. I didn’t like standing and gaming. I didn’t like being so isolated from everyone else in the house. And the games were glorified tech demos slapped together with unity assets. By the time Half Life Alex came out, I had no more fucks to give.

The porn was fun though.

Not a whole lot.

So, yeah. What’s a good Linux distro for stable diffusion and programming?

That’s my guess.

I think he’ll think that until the cold wet fish of reality slaps him in the face.

Of course he’d be okay with house arrest. Mara Largo has golf and beautiful cake and no poors.

Jail would be him and the Secret Service in solitary. I can’t imagine he’d be okay with even that.

Now do whatnow!? Are we still doing phrasing? That still a thing?

I got lucky with my wife, but had I known then what I now know of Japanese divorce law, I wouldn’t have rolled those dice. I just hope this means Japan is going to start shared custody when one parent is a foreigner.

Changed it. Thanks.

I’m around the same age as you, and I taught myself front end development. Don’t let anyone say you can’t learn. If you want to make websites, I suggest HTML => CSS => JavaScript => React.js. I recommend learning on Scrimba.com. They have a screen cast system where an actual instructor tells you what to do in plain English with the corresponding code on screen. If you want to see how a change would affect the code, you can pause the cast and run the code yourself.

And if you want to learn back end, a back end programmer suggested learning PHP. Still in high demand in the job market.

To this day gaman or Japanese stoicism is a big part of Japanese culture. The Japanese had already lost the war, but the ruling class was willing to sacrifice scores of people to fight to the bitter end.

In an episode of Hardcore History, it detailed that the Allied ships couldn’t dock in Okinawa because of all the corpses in the water. The Japanese had inundated Okinawa with propaganda that the Americans were going to rape them all. Many families killed themselves. And the invasion of the mainland was only going to get bloodier.

A terrible as it is to say, dropping the nukes was the more humane option of the two.

My dog barks some. Therefore nuke Gaza.

It’s probably not Modi himself who ordered the killing. More like one of his peons lower on the totem pole. It might even be someone outside the government paid some bakshish to said peon.

Sorry, but what do you mean by ik weapons?

“You can’t expect me to remember all my kid’s ages. It’s like they change every year!”

Use your words. Tell her you don’t want to and why.

To preface this all, I’m not a vegan but I support the cause. However on the west coast of Canada, a lot of shitty people use veganism as social camouflage to cover for their moral failings in other areas. I just don’t trust anyone that trumpets their veganism. Just like I don’t trust the overtly religious.

This is great! Now we don’t have to let any immigrants in. Instead we can have them do all our menial chores remotely with this robot and we don’t have to give them citizenship. Everyone wins! Huzzah!
