Dear downvoters... I'm pretty sure the picture of a bald eagle in front of a US flag is a stand-in for "/s".

I'm not that young, but sometimes I see people here refer to their childhoods, and then I feel like a baby.

Here ya go

I think that current-gen console gamers are becoming increasingly aware of the reason why consoles can still be competitive: quantity, optimization, and upscaling. It becomes very apparent when every AAA game ships with two graphics modes, performance and quality, which are usually just changes in internal resolution/upscaling, LoD, texture budget, and lighting/RT.

Purely in the perspective of gaming performance per dollar, the current-gen consoles just barely beat out mid to upper-mid range PCs, but factoring in all the other uses of a PC pushes the comparison in PC's favor.

Smalbut!

I checked on my phone, green is 10, yellow is 20, orange is 30, burnt orange is 40. I know that's not a great measure but currently walking so if someone could screenshot the legend that would be coolio.

I suppose that makes this guy the most bandit-y bandit

Constitutional originadism

Yes, I believe so.

Also the "select the image below containing the example image above."

Like... we already have computers that can recognize image repetitions.

Yeah, seriously. Did the person you were replying to think the energy that's powering datacenters was all clean?

Interesting that a mycologist has 0 posts or comments regarding mushrooms/fungi prior to this post. Not that you have to, but rather that both of my mycologist friends are extremely enthusiastic about talking about it.

This reminds me of the many stories I have heard of family gatherings; the women all prep food and cook while the men drink beers and watch sports or talk about their work. Men who tried to help their wives in the kitchen got weird looks, and women who didn't feel comfortable playing the role of tradwife got scolded and shunned.

The misogyny is ingrained in those families, so much so that the women do not recognize it and instead take pride in their 'role.' It brings them comfort to exist in a space where their contribution is both defined and 'valued,' despite the 'role' existing as a result of misogyny. Attempts to change these expectations are seen as undermining the importance of their 'roles' and thus treated like affronts to their contributions.

And so the cycle continues...

Simply turn yourself into cheese and the bridge into pizza, and then the glue will work perfectly!

Honestly? I don't even know if the wacky shit is necessary. The money pill and the 10% extra rest per sleep is just fine by me.

I would like to cast my vote and say that yes, it can be stupid, and your comment was also definitely one of those times :P

I used to bring up that Diane Feinstein was older than sliced bread to point out her age... but now it's hard to say she is older. Need a new politician to rag on.

Isn't this effectively the same as asking for the higher-tier ad-free subscription? Not that I inherently disagree with you, but I feel like they already offer (part of) your solution.

The honing steel doesn't actually sharpen (remove metal)

Doesn't a honing steel also remove burrs?

I checked my throwaway/spam account. Apparently, I'm a high-wage tech employee at a large company, and I'm also a homeowner.

Damn, they think too highly of me.
