It frustrates me how much smarter I am on the adhd meds when I had such a bad time getting through school. Honestly though if I had an environment that didn’t teach me that every mistake was a world ending occurrence I would have gotten through uni I reckon.

There’s a great Tom scott that goes over it, it’s really neat and wild that this was before the microwave was widely used as like a food thing.

If it helps this was one of the earliest uses of the microwave. They were experimenting with reheating frozen hampsters to see if a creature could be revived from such a state. The issue was that the defreezing options at the time were too slow, and didn’t penetrate the outer layer into the core of the creature, but with the invention of the microwave they actually got the process working.

Okay so typing this out it is a little cruel actually, but it’s still kinda neat and led to furthering our knowledge of the universe.

I have the client for animelab which hasn’t existed since they got absorbed into crunchyroll. Maybe I’m just holding a grudge but I think there’s value in remembering what they took from you.

Represent. I do miss it sometimes, but it’s probably better that I don’t spend as much time online.

Yeah that was exactly my feelings, I’m actually impressed you got that from my low effort vitreol haha

No, it’s a multinational 3.1 trillion dollar company that has many in house resources it could pull on for a project like this. If they’re gonna sell a product with this kind of server reliance built in, it’s on them to actually hold up their end of the bargain instead of “oh oops looks like the game is just too much of a success guys”.

Bullshit, you own a cloud service and know how to scale a service to meet demand, you just fucked up.

I know Australia is American lite sometimes, but we also have most of these issues. Shit is going bad in a lot of places is my understanding.

What are you using now? I’ve been thinking of switching to popos but I’m keeping my eyes open for options.

Nothing like cramming a bunch of mentally unwell people recently off their meds into slave labour camps. That’ll work out real nice.

Considering you’re already into card games, give Balatro a try. It’s got it’s basis in poker, but puts some extra spice on it that might interest you.

Chants of Sennar is also a strong recommend. It’s a puzzle game based around intuitive language translation, but also has a really strong story that keeps it interesting.

Idk dude, I got a redundancy about a year ago. There are still jobs out there but it feels like it’s dwindling.

I can recall it only because it went weird places with some if the characters and the bad guy was trying to prevent the holocaust. I did not feel the need to watch the third after that.

Absolutely they do, which is why the competition could not compete. Once the whole market is dominated by a few companies, it lets them get a little more creative with how they price things, and a little lazier with their coding practices.

Probably the cursed remixes on YouTube, they don’t need to know how much of a banger beatswapped uptown funk is.

I feel the same way. I understand why people do it they do currently, but I would like to at the very least dial it back and see what happens.

Ditto for us in Australia

Like obviously we need to make people know things exist, it makes financial and logical sense, etc.

On the other hand, this is bullshit. It’s an ever increasing blight on the senses in both online and offline spaces. It’s at the point where massive companies cannot function without plastering ads over everything. Fuck that. If we can’t function without some garish assault of a cacophony to our psyche every few minutes, maybe we need to rethink what we’re doing with our existence.

Good fucking luck, the hardware will likely be a 2022 tablet if the switch is anything to go off of. Considering as well the console will likely have similar architecture, and switch emulators already exist, I’d give it about 3 months.
