Nothing blows my mind like someone posting a negative Steam review after playing 1000 hours. My guy, just because you don't like this update doesn't make it bad. Or was it always bad and you just hate yourself? I didn't like the last Isaac DLC, but after 1100 hours it can't have all been bad.

It's depressing, right? It's either transphobia or SA and I'm getting pretty pissed off that these people have been allowed to get away with their nonsense for all this time.

I've never seen anyone posting normal "blog-style" content on Medium, though. That makes me wonder if it's not the type of content they want.

Due to the cost of hosting, I'm trying to find a new solution for my website. The one-page options look pretty good and would be enough, except I want to keep writing blog posts too. I guess post those on Medium and just link back? (I don't care about trying to monetise any of this)

I'd be here too, but it's the big single expense at once that I can't do. Its easier to pay for a GPU here and memory there than everything new all at once. And what happens to the old one each time? How hard is it to sell a used PC? These are the things I'm afraid of πŸ˜€

I know it's not the point, but how the hell is this list ordered? It's not alphabetical, it's not distance, it's not value of trade or deficit. It's annoying me more than I'd like.

Remind me again, how much did he make on his last movie? A hundred million? How many VFX artists could he employ for that? Do you think there's a specific level of wealth you reach where the very concept of money becomes so irrelevant that you forget other humans still need it?

I started teaching my son how to do the Mario Kart drift boost. It'll be a learning process, considering he's always used motion control for steering 🏎️πŸ’₯

Given that usage of these drugs is similar across every developed country, the only non-gun explanation would be that US mental health is worse than everywhere else. And that would need an explanation of it's own.

The 80s? A US era where a Republican politician deregulated business, stopped spending on public services, mishandled an epidemic, blamed immigrants & minorities for the problems, grew the wealth gap, tripled the national debt and developed Alzheimer's? Sounds great.

The cross-product earning might be fine for now, but it's not sustainable. And as shareholders demand more investment in AI, those margins will get smaller and smaller. For a market that claims to want to disrupt industries, they all seem to be happy to follow the herd on this one.

It's hard to enjoy your wealth when your skin is on fire and you can't breathe. Fairly likely to have an effect on those white picket fences too.

As a normal guy, I can say whatever I want in an internet message. It doesn't mean that anyone has to listen, as a normal guy, to me. Nor does it make my, a normal guy's, opinion mean a damn thing. I hereby let everyone know that I, a normal guy, give everyone permission to say whatever.

Aren't masked, armed, anonymous vigilantes in the city streets extremely illegal? Isn't this what the NRA and 2nd Amendment extremists have been getting chubbed about all this time?

It was my dad's before it was mine. It died when the PSU input got wobbly and wouldn't solder. I then took it apart and I regret that now. I got a +2 after. I was a hardcore anti-C64 guy back then, but I realize now how much better it actually was πŸ˜€

An old 48k ZX Spectrum (the hard key version). It's a relic of the 80s, all square corners and chunky edges. The letter and keys all have commands for BASIC programming language written on them. There's a cute little red, yellow, green and blue straight rainbow of slashes (/) in the bottom right corner. The top left corner has the Sinclair and ZX Spectrum logos.

I played. I was very bad and it took me a long time to warm up. But I enjoyed it in the end. Although now my hip hurts (obviously) and my weird arm pain (caused by throwing a damn frisbee!) is bad. I could use my body ageing as slowly as my face seems to be.
