Is there even a point to which one you pick? I just picked .kbin because I liked the UI, and when that fell apart I moved to .world mostly at random.

Is there really a large difference between them?

better yet, make it a shifting line. Should be trivial to spot if the line is shifting through all the chroma and lux values.

I really struggle to see a unilateral mobilization and that the US military truly goes through with it.

Especially when foreign assets are getting absolutely left stranded by Trump, programs are getting gutted (he hasn’t touched the VA, yet) and everyone who helped after 9/11 were getting shafted by their government in terms of Healthcare.

If you take away the rather potent motivators of “national security and safety or preventing terrorism” I think you’re gonna get a lot more of a strike from soldiers. Unless you can somehow believably apply that to canada.

Had a new hire try to do all his automation programming in python with an AI. It was horrifying.

Lists and lists and lists of if else statements they caught if a button errored but never caught if it did the right thing. 90% of their bug reports were directly due to their own code. Trivially provable.

Work keeps trying to tell us to use more AI but refuses to mention whether the training data is using company emails. If it is then a buttload of unlabeled non public data is getting fed into it. So only a matter of time until a “fun fact” from the AI turns into a nightmare.

Most of our stuff is in an obscure field with outdated code, so any coding assistance is not really that impressive.

Yeah, the performance pushed me away as well. I haven’t had a graphics card struggle in a long time. It was very painful to see it happen to me in VR. Like damn near nauseating.

Oh my god yes!

I always thought that heaven sounds like hell. It’ll be great for about a week but eventually nonstop perfection would become so monotonous. Like playing a video game that you completed for all eternity. It’d be the worst kind of torture, to make everything you love into something you get bored of.

Have you looked at resonite at all? It is what they’re trying to aim for.

I’ve brought it up before but every time I mention it’s been like that for over a decade, they all lose interest

My neck clicks whenever I turn to the right.

If it’s twice, it’s not a random twitch or awkward wave. He sieg heiled the front and the back

I mean… it’s not, quite nature… but a massive cornfield, surrounded by more cornfields, surrounded by more cornfields.

One of my relatives is a farmer and I remember sitting on his porch and hearing absolutely nothing, nothing but corn. His neighbors grew corn, his neighbor’s neighbors grew corn. It was just, pure corn stalks. Everywhere.

No bugs chirping

No birds flapping

No squirrels running around

No cars on the road

No planes in the sky

Just wind through fucktons of corn. It was so surreal. It was the closest thing I’ve ever heard to total silence. It was like living in a barren wasteland but everything was green, with endless food. It was both chill and unsettling all at the same time.

Oh that’s clever, I’m keeping this one in my back pocket

What’s at the start of an era, twice in a generation, nowhere in an instant, but awaits you at the end of time?

I’m not really ON facebook. But way too many of my friends use it as a way to send invites to events. I literally just pop in every other week to check notifications and see if anybody invited me to anything. It’s kind of infuriating how no other method makes it so easy to just invite 20 people somewhere.

The fediverse doesn’t have a decent calendar/invite solution does it?

I’m always a huge fan of Deep Rock Galactic, Moonring, Rimworld

What I usually do is think about all the time today when I wanted to be left alone. To be uninterrupted. To just get five minutes to myself.

Because now, I have it. I have all the time in the world. I can do nothing. I can let my mind wander. No one will interrupt, no one will dump bullshit on me. Countless times today I just wanted a pause button for five minutes and now I have hours to just do nothing.

Then I wake up and realize “nope, all that time is now gone”. Can’t catch a fuckin break.

Oh I found it, but it also was on eastern time. I’m in the central time zone. So without a syncronize step it was an hour ahead.

I was just looking for something to put in the background while my wife and I chilled. I just like to have that 10 second countdown ya know?

I won’t say it’s hated but I feel like it completely fell under the radar because of covid.

Ron’s Gone Wrong

I really liked it. It came out of 20th century studios, I suppose it’s technically under Disney now. It got released and no one gave it the time of day.

Now you’ve reminded me of this joke again.

Gotta love that narrator. One of my favorite narrators in a movie.

Murdoch was dead on. I thought face was pretty good. Liam did a decent Hannibal and BA was fine.

What irked me was this weird back story of like… trying to let face taking over to lead the group sort of thing, plus the romance. It really rubbed me the wrong way.

Like, the A team isn’t some club, they’re this perfect storm of chaos towards bad guys, there isn’t so much a hierarchy as just this inexplicable plot armor and audacity. If it wasn’t all four it would all fall apart.
