Shitposter while I tend to two babies. Maybe when I have my life back, I'll help us get a few more niche communities back?

  • At least it's not requiring ID, and it's kind of easy to circumvent, but it's a slippery slope. Also it's definitely just virtue signalling to the dumbest among us, which is generally a bad thing.

    California does this sometimes. One of our more notoriously stupid laws put up cancer warnings on virtually everything with a certain unnamed substance, making it almost impossible to identify things that might be seriously unhealthy. Like you enter a Starbucks and it says something in the Starbucks causes cancer. Like, gee, thanks.

    Overprotective, not well thought out, bullshit laws.

  • Given that I will sometimes reflect for a whole day on just a comment getting a couple down votes, I can't imagine how someone who actually posts stuff feels.

    But hey, it's the world wide web, you're bound to get a few people like that just like driving on a freeway, there's always a possibility of someone brake checking you because they disliked your coexist bumper sticker or something.

  • Nice, totally with you on using RA as a checklist for these games (especially after multiset). It feels a bit more guided, especially as they add more and more gimmicks over the years. In post game, it's practically essential.

    White 2 is still kicking my butt because it's just so, so much stuff. Emerald at least is probably a bit more tame. I've still got to beat battle subways, star in movies, beat the Elite 4 with every type, and do every post game tournament including battles with all previous games gym leaders... Plus a 400+ Pokemon capture/evolve/breed list which is just the White 2 only dex entries.

  • Interestingly your link doesn't mention use of color or lack there of. It does say elsewhere that you shouldn't do it for decoration, though.

    That said, things like this are more dictated by the journal you publish to and a thesis has to imitate that. Solution? Graduate and start a journal that requires beautiful color tables, lol

  • I teach, so trying to adjust old ppts for lecture got a little weird because it turned the bulletpoints into mailboxes, and equation formulas are done completely differently so libre just makes them uneditable (a picture?).

    When things got wonky in lecture though I managed just fine. My students are much worse, they open shit in non-MS apps all the time (.notes for takehome exams, or like, keynote, whatever) and fuck up formatting all the time, often without even realizing it. (I do provide PDF alternatives at least). Explaining I use libre really easy in that case, lol.

  • Hehe, ok but I'm not sure what the intermediary is between those. I have much better options that are cheaper and tastier, at least for now (although 8 dollar chicken burritos are up to 12 now after obvious 2025 reasons... sigh).

  • No, you're right. Chipotle isn't the highest grade food but there's a reason it's in a category above, say, Taco Bell. It's servings are a little big, but it's not unhealthy per se, except some of the more gimmicky items like "queso", lol.

    They do have a bad rep, but the hoopla about it giving you diarrhea is probably more because it sits out too long and/or spicy; fast casual is basically pre-prepped lower tier casual chain restaurant food (e.g. Olive Garden, Applebee's, or whatever).

  • oh no

    Jump
  • Reminds me of something that's been on my mind for several days now. I spotted in my rear view mirror a driver and their passenger having a conversation in sign language while driving.

    I never once thought about it.

  • Sick

    Jump
  • And yet, if you have any illness you actually should still take that day off to recovery. Capitalism doesn't let us, but it's still good practice as you may be contagious and infect your coworkers as well as the kind people on public transit.

    Ah... I kinda miss quarantine. Healthiest time of my life without people giving me the flu every fucking year.

  • Ah, to be one with mother nature...

  • Oh sure, but when I created the plutonium golem, that was too dangerous. Pfft.

    Edit: would heavy lead full plate armor help?

  • Ironically, Huffman doesn't seem to be in the Epstein files. This isn't because he isn't a pedophile-- he very likely is-- but he simply wasn't important enough of a person for them to invite him or even talk about him.

  • It uh... It actually gets considerably worse? But sure, faster, around halfway.

    8 chapters of open world, remaining is more like FFXIII linear gameplay with a story that obviously was written by someone else. The pacing changes dramatically, too. You'll know the halfway mark because you will be warned you can't go back to the open world.

    The DLC has it's moments, I guess. You kind of need it to fully get the story.

  • I wonder what that would entail. It's such a drastic change that is probably something big.

  • For what it's worth you can also use a magnifying glass to create designs in wood; it doesn't have to be for ant murder.

    My add to this is a graphing calculator because you can put games on it and parents simply didn't (and probably still don't) know. You thought I was doing calculus? Ha level 19 in Tetris.

  • I'm near SpaceX in CA and see plenty of men in them because SpaceX purchased a bunch for company cars when Tesla couldn't sell them.

    Also it's really weird to see like, 8 of them in one place.

  • Oh I love those themes, I also sometimes use the 98 one on Plasma and it makes people do a double take.

  • Political focus groups suggest that any opinion or stance on any issue may open a politician to criticism, so obviously doing nothing will yield optimal polling results! /s

    The consultant wing needs to fucking die.
