Every person who mentions that podcast gets a free block.

Here’s yours baked fresh!

I wish I could tell you he looked creepy or we had some bad vibes but he was just a guy in the office. That part bugs me the most

Correct on first guess, unfortunately

If you don’t know, you’re better off

Some fuckwad printed out several hundred illegal pictures in the middle of the day in a place accessible to everyone and with high foot traffic.

Needless to say he was walked out by the cops.

Authoritarianism will never die, there will always be people wanting to be dictator.

Violence is needed to hack back the sprouting fronds of fascism wherever it arises, but it will never stop arising, and Normandy wasn’t won with a strongly worded letter.

I am serious enough that I have punched nazis before and look forward to a time when I can punch nazis again.

Violence is necessary for a functioning society to address those that reject the social contract that are not amenable to rationale.

Some people are more dangerous alive than the disruption their death would have caused.

I appreciate and understand that you are a strict pacifist, and that you feel it is a worthwhile life to follow, and I agree with you.

The problem is, in order for most of the populace to be pacifists, there still needs to be agents of violence to remove the disruptors who wish to co-opt or destroy our society that are not amenable to words.

Your ideology cannot exist in the real word as it will be consumed by other ideologies that do not eschew violence.

I have played Dwarf Fortress and I consider myself quite good, pulled off a bunch of tricky megaproject engineering tasks and mastered hydraulics and lava flows.

Most people consider Dwarf Fortress a very hard game. I consider it a moderately hard game.

Noita is a

FUCKING

hard game

And I say that as a person with likely more than 20k hours in game.

I bought it, played it for 2 hours, got tired of dying to invisible poisoned zones and uninstalled.

I WANT to like the game but it is really stupidly buggy and claustrophobic

I’ve got 1k+ hours in both Fallout 4 and Skyrim, bought them both on opening day.

Haven’t finished either of their main quests, for Fallout I just really didn’t care at all about Shaun.

Hermaevs’ youtube channel has a no-hit RL1 boss run where she shows Morgott’s safe spacing and timing, got me through and now I’m trying to RL1 Radahn and I’m stuck there lol

I don’t know if it still works but abusing the physics engine to make kinetic ship obliterating shotguns added an easy extra hundred hours to my gameplay.

To be honest, WFH for me means that if they need me to fill an hour in extra or so per day, then that’s kind of already costed in with travel times.

I’ve pulled 14 hour shifts covering for PTO or sick days and it really doesn’t feel even half as exhausting as a normal in-office 8 hours.

I dunno man, they’re really happy with the work life balance and the C-suites are happy with their productivity.

It’s funny even our sales and logistics departments are wfh, and the only people I ever see on the off chance I need to load a tape rack or something is security and building maintenance.

And we’ve been RIDICULOUSLY profitable all through covid. In fact covid only served to show the remaining staff how productive WFH is.

We are making so much money rn that they don’t even CARE about property costs and they leave the lights and AC on 24/7 for maybe 2 people in the entire site, and our 3 satellite sites are just as empty.

Sure there may be some A type salesbro personalities that need to be around others to work effectively, the largely spectrum oriented development community needs no such frippery.

I work at one of the top ten data processors in the world.

ALL of our devs have been WFH since 2014 and produce better work now than ever.

I dunno what the movie was called, I was 7 and had fallen asleep in front of the TV. When I woke up there two ‘grey’ aliens of in hindsight terrible costumes crouching in some bushes.

I had never seen a depiction of a grey alien before that and my uncanny valley sensor peaked higher than ever at any other point in my life and I ran to my room without even shutting off the tv.

It’s funny to look back and remember that as a moment of legit fear, knowing what I do now.

Guess I’ll have to wait a bit longer for the vore mod…

Cannot wait to see some of the sick things modders bring in the coming years

My first console controller only had one button, audio cassette storage was my first pirating medium, I remember when doctors used to smoke in the examination room.

Some of those bad boys would pack 8 D batteries and you didn’t ever have to charge it, just crack open a new pack of batteries every few outings.

Hell you can GRILL with 8 D batteries.
