This made me feel like my brain was leaking out my ears.

It’s almost like entire markets being controlled by a small amount of large organizations is only a bad thing for consumers.
I wanted to drive trains for a long time. I love big machines and I love trains, so when I got a gig as a conductor I was excited. I excelled in the training and devoured everything I could in the CROR and the movements of equipment.
When I hit the yard, there were lost time accidents every day, multiple derailments, and when coming into work one day I was late because an engine hit a 52’ trailer and flipped it into another engine at a crossing in the yard, in front of the train masters office.
My shifts were 4-12 hours long, but often I’d have to get a taxi across town after a shift to get my car then drive home and go to sleep, only to get woken up by a phone call giving me two hours notice for my next shift. That shit was bananas.
It was explained to me early on that the work lists that we were given weren’t physically possible to do in a safe/perscribed manner. Like, they don’t actually give you time to move the train forward, stop it, flip a switch, move back and decouple, so often conductors would call out multiple movements and hustle behind the train to get everything done without stopping. Which lead to some dude getting his legs cut off.
I didn’t do that for very long. I loved working on the trains, and I was very good at it, but I quit without another job lined up before qualifying since I didn’t want to feel trapped working for cn.
My printer can print, but most of the other features are locked behind Brothers drivers. Copying/ scanning from the document feeder and duplex were kind of a pain to get working, and for some reason only work from certain programs.
Isn’t it like just over ten years old?
It’s just bad faith reporting. It reminds me of Kotaku sneaking into conventions before they opened to report what games were there.
It lowers my opinion of The Verge, I used to think they were at least reputable with standards, but that’s a real tabloid move.
If I had unlimited space and could set up one of those retro game rooms, I’d love to use my old systems. However, it’s way easier and practical for me to keep my collection in boxes/shelves and have a little pc hooked up to the TV that’s actually made to output hdmi.
If he thinks we’re far into the erosion of individual rights now, wait till he hears about our Conservatives!
It’s a three thousand dollar monitor, what did they expect?
No one wants my fatty hairy thighs peaking out from shorts like that.
The Conservative Party doesn’t actually know what conservative principles are.
Baseball was all white people even he was a kid, I wasn’t expecting him to have a ton of progressive ideas.
I agree. Lower Decks is a great show in it’s own rights and I know lots of people who like it without any previous experience in Star Trek, but it is very much a love letter to the series.
SNW is an outstanding show for first timers and a younger crowd. In a lot of ways, I kind of wish I could experience Trek with SNW as my first show.
Is 13 to young to work? Is 65 too early to retire? Are you spending too much time on hobbies?
I want to leave this planet.
It just doesn’t make sense. I don’t want granite counter tops and Italian taps, I want a roof and a floor and a place for a bed.
Honestly, I just want a little strawberry box house, but I’d settle for a condo outside of town.
It was a serious problem for a long time. Late 90’s/early 2000’s E3 and game shows were greasy.
I remember gaming magazines running whole sections just on the “best booth babes” of the season.
This is the frustrating part of it. The public doesn’t understand what’s actually happening, or what the goal of these large language models is, so because they’re very convincing conversationalists, your average Joe considers them as true AI.
I kept thinking it was a loop of numbers.
It would be amazing if there was an alternate universe where the borg evolved from chatgpt. Like, it’s constantly wrong and broken but all the races are driving the assimilation out of the belief that one day the borg collective start solving problems.
If they update the controls I’m in 100%. Soul Reaver 1 controls always grate on me.
