Well, more than a good reason, it's in the UCMJ and drilled into you in basic.

Computers became fast enough about 20 years ago for everything short of gaming for the average user.

Before that, lots of effort was put into efficiency, specifically in the OS.

Now days, hardware is so fast, and storage has become so large, the only way to force people to buy new hardware is to create total bloatware and planed obsolescence.

I'm forced to use windows for work, and have been on 11 for a while now. Many basic tasks are indeed much slower.

I finally have my own home PC for the first time in decades, and this is one of the many reasons I plan on switching it to linux.

I want all that horse power going into graphics and gaming, not running a shit OS.

So happy to see this, one of my favorite movies.

As someone who's been skateboarding for 40 years, I've almost always had that "This is a bad idea" feeling right before getting a serious injury.

Took longer than I care to admit to start listening to it.

Suicide run, Mass Effect 2.

The question was how to annoy people, a car slowing down while being tailgated without brake lights annoys people.

I can down shift and slow down without activating my brakelights.

This is one of the many reasons I love my manual transmission

I'm on the taller side, I find if I look over and past people into the distance, never even acknowledging them, they part like the red sea.

City skylines and factorio.

Calling is synchronous, texting is asynchronous.

I prefer asynchronous for most things, I can reply now, or I can reply in an hour if I'm busy.

Also, unless I have a headset on, I don't like using a phone. It's not comfortable to hold it to your head, and speaker phone just automatically makes you an asshole.

Reminds me of the congressman who went down to Jones Town.

Hopefully this has a better outcome

That is what I've been thinking. Guy has been dead from almost day one, and in fact that is likely the point of these prison camps.

They want to be able to disappear people, and it's a lot more effort and money to keep them alive. El Salvador is just an off site extermination facility, and they are playing "Well, we can't bring him back" cause they won't admit what they have done.

Now this is a stream I would enjoy watching. I have the KSP platinum on PS4, I know exactly how difficult this is.

In fact, since it's his big fantasy, let's see a Duna return trip.

It's the only platform I have to play it on, and switch doesn't support the new space age expansion.

It did get many of the 2.0 updates, like the extended belt reader, free circuit wires, and all inserters are filters.

As far as acceptable, I love it. I'm sure I can't build the crazy 10k science per minute monstrosities I've seen on youtube, but I've never really run into an lag issues with the bases I've built.

When I bought the switch I called it my $500 zelda machine.

I also have factorio now.

If a new mario, zelda, or factorio is available on switch 2, I'll buy one.

Honestly? I'm lazy. I play on my PS4, and have it all done up for that, the cables, pre amp, audio D-A for the sound bar / headphones, etc. Its what I know, and it works.

Haven't owned my own PC in like 20 years (I'm a programmer and work always just gives me a beautiful laptop).

I recently bought a gaming PC that was top of the line 5 years ago, and am slowly turning that into a linux gaming PC. It's going to be a while before I can actually use it, and in the mean time the PS4 still works when I get home and just want a whiskey and jam night.

That and being purple heart means he saw action, isn't likely the kind of nerd privy to the interesting intel.

A maintenance crew member from a B2 would be an intelligence score.

Even if it's the sunlight maggot? How you say no to my boy Solaire?

Could never date a religious person either. The nice part is, I've never met a seriously religious person who didn't let you know all about it without having to ask.
