Why is he figuring things out himself? Surely that’s the AI’s job, right? Right?

While you are burning alive, please take the time to appreciate the fact that the Cybertruck has a 5-star NHTSA crash rating.

And although it isn’t LGBTQ+, it definitely looks mentally ill. Hopefully it will shed and slither back to whatever hole it came from.

Nah, it’s just hit or miss wether the freeze strikes or not. Can’t get closer to the thrill of real Russian roulette than this.

Ubuntu, the Nickelback of distros.

Ah, so he’s going to stop posting there? Right?

Never uninstalled Unreal & Return to Na Pali. Once in a while it just beckons for a new playthrough. And the unforgettable soundtrack, still listen regularly to the original UMX files with XMPlay. 🤤

Haha, guess so. Ah well, no harm done.

Guess I should have used /s.

It’s, in my experience, the ‘universities are liberal/woke indoctrination centres’ folks are also the ones whom have issues with grasping the difference between evidence, facts and opinions.

Evidence is just a fancy word for opinion, right?

I’m most certainly not. Oh look, time for The Two Minutes of Hate already. 📺

That’s funny, I could have sworn it was Eurasia last year. I must be mistaken.

Personally I hated the whole gang warfare mechanic in San Andreas, so I never finished the game.

GTA IV was filled with details and graphically very good at the time. But the constant hounding by your companions was a major turn off. Fuck that “cousin Romain disliked you didn’t pick up your phone while you were being chased by the police” shit.

V was okay, but I also never finished it. Both GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 just feels like a chore at some point. As much as I’d want to like them they just fail to hold my attention.

For me Vice City was the part I enjoyed most, not overly long and absolutely I loved the 80’s vibe. 🤤

I think I ended up refunding Anno 2205, that’s the only Anno installment I disliked and I’ve played them all. It’s not futuristic of course, but try Anno 1800, it is really good. One of those games where I was surprised to find out Ubisoft was still able to release something that doesn’t feel like a complete copy-paste of its sequel. The basics are the same of course, but with enough unique twists and QoL improvements that it feels like a genuine step forward.

Unfortunately in my country HBO was only available as an add-on, so you’d need an expensive cable subscription you didn’t want and then pay extra for the concent you’d actually wanted to see. Pretty bad deal.

When I moved out my first decision was to not get cable anymore. Streaming wasn’t even a factor in that decision as Netflix was only just starting here. I just didn’t care about all the drivel broken up by increasingly long commercial blocks. Lack of quality killed TV for me, not streaming.

Soulslike games only frustrate me immensely. I don’t mind a challenge, but when a game starts to feel more like work than hobby I’ll pass. So Elden Ring has never been on my wishlist, but I applaud those who have the motivation to git gud and persevere.

To each their own, research a bit before you buy something and accept that you might sometimes buy a game that doesn’t suit you. Mistakes and wrong decisions happen, that’s life.

I seriously doubt if the radiation perv scanner doesn’t get people to do anything

You mean the backscatter X-ray units that have already been phased out 10 years ago?

The modern milimeter-wave scanners both do not reveal anything and do not use ionising radiation. If radiation is a concern to you, you really shouldn’t be flying at all to be honest. The dose you get up there is much higher than you’d get from an X-ray scanner, although it is still negligible.

Guns kept in a car usually aren’t required to be locked up if the car itself is locked.

Common sense requires it if there is a chance you’ll be leaving a toddler alone with it.

Yes, they can indeed be a problem for people with allergies. In my case dogs (and cats unfortunately) trigger respiratory issues. I had that issue at a workplace where dogs were allowed, not fun times. And unfortunately medication like antihistamines are not an option for everybody, personally I get extremely drowsy from them, even from the latest generation meds.
