A horse is a horse, of course, of course, And no one can talk to a horse, of course, That is, of course, unless the horse Is the famous Mister Ed!

Go right to the source and ask the horse, He’ll give you the answer that you’ll endorse. He’s always on a steady course. Talk to Mister Ed!

Tbh I know this isn’t helpful, but I recommend take the L and find better games to play. Errantly perma banning users shows a lack of consumer consideration and does not deserve further energy to fix. They fucked up, take your business elsewhere.

Again, I know it’s not helpful but I think worth considering. Companies some decades ago used to be user experience as the top goal, but that has gone to the sidelines for many companies, and I don’t think it’s good to normalize. Hence, boycott when it happens.

I can feel my hand cramping just looking at this.

I had to open in the browser for it to work. Here’s the spoiler text:

The Quality of Life is the episode where the Geordi/Drake meme comes from, and those are the timestamps for each frame.

JD Vance having had intercourse with a couch, be that as it may, doesn’t intrinsically mean it was IKEAs couch. Of course he likely didn’t have sex with any couch, however often, or other furniture perhaps. But it’s still important to distinguish the two situations. I’m glad to know JD Vance likely didn’t have sex with any. There is no evidence of course of intercourse from JD Vance, so we can’t say JD Vance has or would engage in intercourse to completion with a couch, nor should we.

TEN WHOLE GIGABYTES!! OMG WHAT ARE WE TO DO??

Yeah I’ve put about 5 hrs off and on and the entire time just feel like I’m fucking it all up.

Omfg I feel like an idiot now. Thank you

Explain? I don’t get it

Is porn allowed on Twitter?

I’ve had this problem. My solution was when starting a game to play regularly and semi exclusively. I.e. I only have one single player game I’m working on at a time, and I play it multiple times per week to make progress.

And I just keep playing until I beat it. I then may take some time off gaming for a few days or weeks, but will eventually pick up another game and repeat.

This works for me cuz when I don’t play consistently and decide to take, say, a one week break from a game, I find I end up not returning. So it’s crucial to keep revisiting the game and sensing that progress or it feels like it never ends and drags on and on. There’s also things like muscle memory and strategy that if I don’t keep fresh at least a few times per week, it makes returning to the game feel like more work rather than just jumping back in.

I don’t have diagnosed ADHD so it may not apply to you but that’s what worked for me (and continues to work). I’ve played many dozens of games following this system for some years now.

Why is it a subway sandwich?

Exactly. I was trying to be conservative by choosing only 6 and sticking to the cheaper plans.

But it is entirely conceivable today that, if someone has literally all the subscriptions, they could be paying more than cable costs.

Another factor I ignored for brevity is, at least when I was a kid, the price of cable was often bundled with Internet and telephone services. I can’t speak to how accurate the numbers would be, but I’m pretty sure my dad was paying $100+ for cable and everything else, meaning the cable likely wasn’t the entire cost of the bill. But I digress…

Streaming has gotten out of hand, and anyone who disagrees with me today will eventually agree within a decade.

But the direction is certainly heading towards the realm of cable prices…

• Netflix: $15.49
• Amazon Prime Video: $14.99
• Apple TV+: $6.99
• HBO Max: $15.99
• Disney+: $10.99
• Hulu: $14.99

Total: $79.44 per month

So maybe when you account for inflation it is still only half of what cable costs,.perhaps. but those are the cheaper plans. For HDR support for Netflix it’s like $25, and it’s the reason I cancelled Netflix.

I don’t think the meme is dumb, just ahead of it’s time, but it’s calling out what is certainly happening.

Most streaming services now include ads in the paid subscription.

Inch the ad ratio and prices up another 40% and we are getting pretty close to cable experience/cost. And that’s only a few years away when we look at how much costs have raised over the last 10 yrs.

If each service raises price $1/month every year and you have 6 services, then in 5 yrs you’re paying $30 more per month, prob around $100+.

Same. It’s the thought that counts. Better than just blindly pirating without any attempt to participate in the market. But when the market gets absurd like this, this is the only recourse.

Does anyone know how I can get on a private tracker site. I have a whole containerized home server setup but still stuck on TPB. I’m ready to serve. Would love an invite.

I was expecting something more profound. Isn’t this just the concept of using variables to keep code readable? Not a new concept and likely one most devs learn early on.
