That's a good point about backups! Doing that now

So that's the plan and I'm not a stranger to doing basic server stuff. For me personally right now though it just isn't feasible. I'm not in a space where I can handle extra overhead like that and I'm entrenched in a lot of important communications through my old email that need as little disruption as possible. In about a year I think things will have cooled down enough for me to switch

Putting in my unasked for opinion that we should popularize 'flail it til you nail it'

Please be a joke... I'm unfortunately pretty deep in my current gmail with all kinds of medical, legal, and financial offices it would be a mess for me to lose it

Only 90% ? Sounds like we've got some wiggle room to add more plastic into the environment

They also discovered a macroplastic holding all that water, which best case scenario will gum up nature forever. More likely it kinda sorta degrades into mystery murder material. We need to get rid of these things

I can't talk on this personally because I do still really need this job's insurance and am trying my best to not get fired for 6 more months, but also I'm just a grunt all I've got are contradictory rumors.

My stress levels are in fact well beyond the moon, moon was last year stuff that's all old news

That's the GNU part, silly

If games count, Black and White. I think that game is peak VR material just happened way before VR and now the IP is dead afaik

Not me but my spouse hates recursive ones, like GNU. Hates them so much, active vocal expressions of dislike. Anyways the setting I'm making is filthy with recursive acronyms for no reason.

This exists and is one of my favorite / most horrible shelf decorations

La La Land. I had just been unexpectedly dumped by my anchor partner a few days earlier. Crashed at another partners place and did a bunch of mushrooms, they put the movie on without thinking just trying to fill the time to keep me distracted. The movie about two people having a very sweet relationship then breaking up and not getting back together again was maybe a poor choice lol. We had to stop it part way through so I could ground myself but after a while I did end up pulling it together enough to finish the movie (with some crying breaks here and there). 10/10, would mushroom and watch again. Helped me process tbh, after I knew what I was getting into, very emotionally draining on me though.

No surprisingly, I haven't managed to contribute to the project. Reminds me I should definitely look into that though

Morrowind because I'm one of those people. But for real, that game in part defined large parts of my life. I got frustrated with the limits of the game so I started making mods, then got frustrated with the limits of the engine so I learned how to make my own. Now I work adjacent to the game industry with plans to get back into the industry proper in a couple years. Making games is all I've ever wanted to do and I owe a big part of that to Morrowind and the construction kit.

I got a Steelcase Series 2 like 3 years back. I work from home and usually am on my home machine the rest of the day because I've got a problem. This chair is going to add years to my back I'd be losing if I got cheap or "gamer" chairs. I was hesitant to drop that kind of $$ at the time but I'm a convert now, only the good shit for me

I'd argue yes most of the time but with some exception. I can't imagine something like a gut bucket or musical saw sounding considerably better even with more expensive materials and construction techniques. I'll admit I'm not like a music person I just dabble though so idk just guessing

I sometimes buy pretty new (1-2yr old) premade computers from foreign exchange students at the end of a school year. They often sell them for the cost of just the GPU, sometimes lower. The number of garbage PSUs I've had to swap out is ridiculous. People buy like $3k+ computers and are content with $80 PSUs it's amazing. I've had them pop on me after only a couple months use. Meanwhile the PSU in my current machine was a major purchase for me back in 2010 and thing still runs every upgrade I throw at it.

Well it won't be my fuck up, but the company I work for is starting the year with 2-3 mass firings. That would set the tone for delaying my year to 2025
