This isn’t happening to every person in Russia, it’s happening to every person in Russia with a modern Porsche.

Assumptions can be made about the sample set.

Wellington Paranormal is such a bizzarly dry and delightful show, it’s like a Polar Orange Dry which I don’t how far that analogy will travel outside of New England area lol

Ooo, I think it would be:

• Incremental Deduction
• Adventure
• (maybe?) Language and Translation

Yepp, from where I sit Endeavour is the best of all worlds. Plus, it’s purple.

Dude, the technical issues with this “distro” somehow outweigh even the creators garbage politics and that is actually the only impressive thing about Omarchy.

Only because I had to explain the differences recently and it’s top of mind:

Satisfactory - Main goal is efficient usage of limited amount of throughput. Resource nodes are static, and efficiency is the name of the game. My favorites usually end up a spaghetti mess of belts, everything being fed the correct amount of inputs and all outputs being accounted for.

Factorio - Main goal is THE FACTORY MUST GROW. Your factory need more input to run 100%? You could figure out how to optimize everything that comes before it, orrrr just slam more out. Resources are randomly generated, and while you can exhaust deposits, there’s always more on the horizon. Explore. Expand. Exterminate. ENLARGE FACTORY. Usually ends up in a beautiful mess of a factory with bots zipping around, and the power flickers every now and then when the biters think they are more powerful that explosives/concentrated beams of light.

Iirc the spiders will wander to you eventually

The monsters in that don’t really attack you unless you go to them

Mostly true. Mostly 🤫

Was gunna say, I am 38 and I remember watching the first Halloween episode of SP when I was like 10-11 and the adults hadn’t caught on how offensive the show was yet.

Please God, if you exist, let this have been done by a jilted lover. Give us a sign that there’s a light at the end of the tunnel and we’re on track towards the funniest timeline.

Part of interest calculation is risk. That’s why higher credit score leads to lower interest, it’s less of a risk to the lender.

PMI is double dipping. They can pick one, either a flat across the board interest rate for all borrowers or PMI.

Didn’t mean to imply it was entirely about risk.

And while we’re ranting about this, can we throw PMI and whomever came up with it on the bonfire where they belong?

Your telling me that I need to pay for you to have insurance in case I default while your also charging me interest who’s very purpose is to offset risk? Why am I paying to offset your risk FUCKING TWICE AND HOW IS THIS FUCKING LEGAL.

Shit infuriates me. I want all the bankers to get William Wallace on live TV, recorded and played back once a year during a mandatory viewing window so that we never, ever, forget.

…the fuck are you on about? Don’t lump the Northeast in with the South. Massachusetts is easily the most liberal state in the country, and it’s not even really close and second place is Hawaii so still not West Coast.

If you want peer pressure from GOP funding Silicon Valley NIMBYs and weirdly conservative cannabis farmers go West. If you want a culture that prides itself on cutting you off in traffic while sipping a large extra extra around the Newport eternally stuck to your lower lip but at the same militantly defending your civil rights and social systems, come to New England. Or don’t, we barely have snow anymore. I’ll give that to the American West, better ski mountains.

(this is mostly a joke, everyone’s fucked anyway)

The last time I was visiting my parents in South Carolina we went to a local art faire thing, and one of the stands was a dude selling art of Confederates. Not just any Confederates, Black Confederates. And the dude selling this art, was a older black man in full fucking Confederate uniform. The best part was the massive bread boards he had full of tiny font Confederate apologia that read like a SovCit manifesto.

Don’t think the color of a person’s skin naturally dictates their opinions on matters that you think it should, people will surprise you every time.

I have bounced off Nioh 2 like a dozen times, the combat system utterly overwhelms me every time I jump in. I have beaten every Souls game outside of Sekiro, but the stances and absorbtion mechanic thing around parrying (forget the exact details) just does me head in.

And every time I bounce off I am sad, cus otherwise it looks amazing. I want to get to the end game and grind out stuff, but getting off the ground is a slog.

Exactly this. I have missed semi important message this way. Signal seems to be particularly susceptible, not that I would blame them or call it a bug just a very weird niche case.

Don’t think I haven’t worked through this in my head lol
