hell, I didn’t even know who it was. Took a bit of footwork to find out :)

The best description I’ve ever heard about getting very old, it’s like being in a nice hot shower all your life and as you near the end, they just keep slowly turning off the hot water until you’re miserable. We just kinda fall apart in old age. The only future you’re looking forward to is your family reaching their own milestones, unless you’re financially prepared, your income dwindles. I’m sure it’s not like that for everyone, but at least in my circles, panel for is more like “I’m scared, but you know it’s about time”

That only covers games that are loosely using servers for communication, piracy and cheating. That also puts game companies into the realm of losing their IP if they shut down temporarily in an acquisition. If you start a studio, run out of cash and get aquired, you’ll actually want that game you made to still be worth something, it doesn’t just affect those AAA players.

I think you need to add something like an escrow with x months of running costs. Once that well runs dry you need to go down to the providing a working server. I’ve been through the industry and I can confidently tell you that an API isn’t enough for a hell of a lot of games. Some of the stuff I’ve seen, it would take the actual game team a half a year to bring it back up with the source because the stuff they were using when they went under was ancient. You don’t want to buy a server authoratative game and wait around a year while the community tries to ressurect it.

it really wouldn’t have hurt them to make the shield on usb-a asymmetric

needs an ethernet there for good measure.

YES

galaxybrain is always an option

tbf, this meme isn’t particularly painting him in a great light

The plan is to lay it out there that they’re going to shut down healthcare plans and wait for money to roll in from all the insurance companies to stay in business. In exchange for the money, they’ll be allowed to operate anyway they see fit.

Shit, we’d be lucky if they went with someone as marginally craptastic as Newsom. We can’t put any candidate in if they have any chance of getting any of our agenda in; they have to be 100% right-friendly or they won’t even try.

If you’re immortal

Yeah can’t find any stories that don’t have him alive for hundreds of years before the castle.

You know, there’s probably a movie in that somewhere…

Dracula beginnings.

Wife dies, leads him to learning dark arts, accidentally turns himself into a vampire instead of reanimating his wife, he works his way up through the aristocracy as an assassin, slowly grows tired of humanity, perhaps a little evil, and slowly kills/controls his way into the aristocracy.

TBF, this particular person didn’t say buy guy, they said be ready for them to inflict physical violence, and honestly, it’s reasonably likely. Maybe not on you, or me, but surely for many and it’ll be quite visible.

I’m not a huge fan of pirating games, but shit like this gets me there real quick.

The line item for obstetric and gynecological devices is interesting.

Think of a comparison between Trump and Bernie and the take away is that Bernie is the unelectable one…

cut the flower out with 45 degree angles, shallow slice the skin top to bottom at quarter intervals, you can crack it open, takes practice.

Alternatively, you can open them underwater in a large pot, picking out the pith, if you do puncture a seed or 7 it won’t make a huge mess.

I don’t even know how much help I removed from reddit before I left. The only sub I left in tact was the lemmy sub to help people escape at the time.

It’s like some automotive designers have never considered the concept of car maintenance. The new beetle when they came out either needed a battery removed or the inner-fender moved to get to the headlight on one side.

The on the contrary, I had a 2011 honda pilot that had a door in the fenderwell so you could get to the upstream o2 sensor

He doesn’t need them anymore. They’ve calculated that they’ve dismanteled enough to either rig the election or just permanently postpone it.

p is trying to hold the poorest people hostage to get Democrats to cave.

Funny enough, the democrats who are rich enough to be in power don’t care more than it looks like the’re caring.

I think it’s a prelude to Martial Law

;) not even once
