I forgot I even did this but I’m coming up on 10 years in just a couple weeks.

I just thought it’s funny that AI can’t determine I’m talking about memes. It’s like, look, Gemino bro, all I use you for is making Garfield and Shrek comments
I actually googled that to try to pull a screenshot and the AI summary told me to go to a doctor
Giving me Don Hertzfeldt’s Rejected vibes, if you haven’t seen this it’s hilarious and is probably slightly older than Youtube. There’s irreverent, and then there’s this
Props to anyone who can laugh at themselves over something like this, although it might be the kind of attitude that got him in that pickle in the first place
lol, if you haven’t tried this game it’s definitely worth a shot because it’s more a finished product than a lot of AAA titles and it’s so faceted that there’s a bit of something for everyone to get hooked on. My three favorite games are Fallout 3, Diablo 2, and this, to give you an idea. I’m an avid fan of no-crop playthroughs (don’t even need to play it like a farming simulator at all to reach 100%).
I’m the guy who made the first catfish comment and I can assure you I’m not a bot. It’s my go-to strat early game and thought it was funny. Catfish, protein, muscles, that kind of thing. But then I checked my comment history and noticed it got downvoted all to hell in the past hour and came here to see what that was all about lol
Edit: for the actual strat, one of the first days is guaranteed rain, so down by Marlene’s, if you line up all the other stuff in the days prior (meeting townsfolk and all that), grind fishing levels beforehand, you can go down there and try to round up as many catfish as possible to bankroll
We evolved to have that response in a world in which hospitals didn’t exist and in which we faced predation by other animals, and ‘curl into a ball feeling like shit for a couple days’ was the most viable way for the body to handle even the most mundane of infections (all the other ideas didn’t make the cut and here we are). But now, 21st century, we’re like ‘oh it’s just the cold’ and actively attempt to mitigate it.
A slew of other things are still stuck in 20,000BC as well, like our bodies not being able to deal with copious amounts of sugar, or thinking we might have difficulties securing our next meal. Cut too many calories trying to lose some fat and your body legit thinks you’re dying and starts breaking down all sorts of soft tissue that isn’t fat. Or vasoconstriction when we’re out shoveling snow with a warm house 15ft away, all sorts of shit
My secret: catfish is high in protein
Weird thing for you to say to someone basically parroting the IPCC’s concerns.
Why would a corporate entity move PP&E to a different country in light of the promise of increasingly favorable tax rates and the threat of tariffs? There’s a reason why US and Ireland are havens. Those things are bolted down
What if a country that holds half the world’s data centers decides to walk out of every global climate accord and start powering those bad boys with fracking due to isolationist trade policies? Won’t amount to zero and in less than a month we find out how that ship is changing its heading
You don’t say.
Do you think the USA is incapable of a meaningful increase in global emissions? My original comment is implying the opposite
That’d be contingent on lots of things, such as random clowns not sabotaging the EPA and selling rights to Federal lands
It’s kind of fun like 3D jigsaw puzzles but I’d honestly rather not be fixing things so much. We got this new place, inspection turned out fine, but turns out previous owner didn’t find a single stud and used 1" screws on everything in the drywall. Had to redo all the closet shelves, hang closet doors, you name it lol
I think the half of the dash and the entire center console on a G37 was about the trickiest thing. Center console lid has a little gear-driven mechanism and you need to flip the entire console upside down to fix, but I needed to stop everything and go to the dealership for a little plastic cog.
But we’re in the middle of moving into a new place and our dishwasher was leaking so I pulled the entire ‘tub’ yesterday and inside front panel off to see if fitment was an issue, mostly wasting time while a couch was scheduled to be delivered, so I stopped the dishwasher project to assemble the couch (power reclining thing), then had to put the entire thing back together afterword (one of those Maytag ‘chopper’ models with a built in food disposal thing). But to pull the tub I had to remove the heater blower and chop chop thing and the control board and the water jets and all that… And then I realized a new dishwasher is like 500 bucks lol
I wouldn’t call it a skill but I’m really mechanically decent (3D puzzles and Rube Goldberg aptitude, that kind of thing), and my visual memory is really good, so I have the uncanny ability to tear apart household appliances, do something else for hours or days, then return and slap it all back together about as quickly with no leftover mystery screws. I just look at the shit all strewn about, and can somehow recall the very last thing I was holding and work backwords
It’s pretty disingenious of them to frame this in such a way as to tout the virtues of plastic. We can make rectangular glass bottles and that not only takes less energy to transport but is also more environmentally friendly than PET, but they didn’t explore that option or even suggest it to the reader for consideration
It’s pretty wild to think they took this long to prohibit using US-based software for such sensitive information
Diablo 2. I was still in school, parents had dial up, and it was marketed in such a way that I thought it was mostly catering towards the online experience, so I blew it off. Flash forward nearly 20 years, get into D2:R, single player is actually pretty cool
