  • Having experience with both, I can tell you that a safety razor is way easier to use than a straight razor, and gets you the same result in half the time.

  • I bounced off of this game initially because I didn't care for the mascot management aspect. I think I need to revisit it with adjusted expectations as most people love it so I must be missing something.

    I much preferred their prior game, Paradise Killer.

  • I have exactly one question which I've never found the right venue to ask, and because it's about the internal experience, I would need to ask several trans people to get a picture:

    When you meet someone who has your deadname, do you experience an initial reaction like you would meeting someone who has your ex's name?

  • "Oh, so we can kill 15 times more before it becomes an issue" - Monsanto, probably

  • Kimchi

  • Yeah, no doubt.

    Having access to visual basic is dangerous enough, let alone Python

  • Writing all the songs on the disc is amateur hour. You cant look at them while it's playing to skip to the right track unless you know the CD perfectly.

    It's better to write it on the insert, even if it means you have to keep it in the case and not in a CD wallet

  • Pound for pound, cats are way more dangerous in a fight than dogs. It's just that cats are usually ~1/3 the weight of the dog that also lives in the house.

  • I grabbed a pair of 8th gen i5 m70q tinys that were being decommissioned. A 64GB RAM kit and a new SSD to replace the destroyed ones and I now have a pretty serviceable Proxmox cluster to play with for about $600 CAD

  • "no you stupid leftist, 'blue no matter who' only applies when you're voting for milquetoast neolibs"

  • At a super basic level, MacOS, Linux, and Windows all use different kernels.

    From a very basic viewpoint. The kernel is basically the piece of software that gives each piece of hardware their instructions.

    At the absolute most basic level, assuming equal hardware, all the kernels are working with same set of instructions(store this value in this register, move to this location in the stack, read this value, etc) but they issue those instructions in different orders to achieve very different results.

    The NT kernel that windows uses does basically everything in a different way than the Linux kernel. To the point that their only real similarities are that they speak the same language to the bare metal hardware.

  • There is enough really phenomenal beer available from local microbreweries now that I never have to drink Molson ever again. (not that I would ever describe Molson as phenomenal, just that every bar and restaurant carries better stock now.)

    Trying beer I've never had before is one of my favorite things to do when I'm in a new city.

  • After rubbing one out and then making a sandwich, you just spend the rest of the day swapping between the remaining 2 until you finally fall asleep.

  • Discord circa 2018 was pretty much everything I'd want in a modern IRC.

    If they can just bring that set of features, I'd switch back to IRC in a heartbeat.

  • George and Pat Rothfuss both have enough money in the bank that they don't have to release their books to the public anymore. They probably still write for fun, but neither will ever release anything again.

    Honestly, I think thats fine. It's a shame I won't get to see the ending of either series, but I also don't have a shortage of things to read.

  • WinApps works by: Running Windows in a Docker, Podman or libvirt virtual machine.

    This seems like an okay solution, but my questions are:

    • How much overhead does this add? (Excel and Adobe products can be pretty heavy)
    • How much latency does it add? (Will things have good responsiveness, or will it behave like an app through RDP?)
    • How good is the hardware passthrough? (Editing video benefits greatly from GPU acceleration, Teams can be tricky about USB mics and cameras)
  • That rules

  • I was full on ugly crying at the end of To The Moon.

  • My strategy for when I recognize this in myself:

    • Stop whatever I'm doing. (I'm not going to make a good effort at it anyway)
    • Take a vitamin D supplement. (I definitely don't get enough sun and that can boost my mood)
    • Go for a 5-10 minute walk and try to get some fresh air while trying to sort out if there is a reason I feel that way.(If there isn't a reason, then fine, but if there is, you now have a problem that you can look at it more logically)
