The child he already repeatedly publicly made extremely creepy comments about?

I think people tend to overly generalize to "managers" when they really mean the middle 3-4 of 6-9 layers of management or something.

E.g. the reporting chain from our company's CEO all the way down to me (an "individual contributor") has 7 people between us. The most change, and with the least noticeable effect on the work I actually do, happens around layers 4 to 6 above me

An envelope with cash!

It's a beautiful game. One of the best I've played. I just love the atmosphere, art style and music

It's more focused on combat than platforming (tip: you can bounce off some spikes with a well timed downward aerial attack) and the typical metroidvania exploration and backtracking. Except there's a brutal optional platforming section that I haven't had the courage to face yet 😅

The bosses are tough, but not unfair. Some of the optional ones and the (true) final battle can be a bit frustrating but that makes finally succeeding just all the more satisfying.

Given that it it's a couple of years old now it's cheap to buy even when not on sale, so do yourself the favor and give it a try!

Yeah, all the best survival guides start with "find the nearest tree and punch it a couple of times"

The earliest known use of the noun ask is in the Old English period (pre-1150).

Why isn't the emperor wearing an Emperor shirt?

So like this?

I got stuck in the first dungeon, because one room required pushing two blocks together but I didn't even think any of these blocks could be pushed at all!

Bought the official guide book a bit later

Recession

Getting 99 salary increases does feel unrealistic though

I don't think the LLM spouting nonsense responses part actively contributes to collecting and learning about user data much. Regular search queries and other behaviors (click tracking etc) already do this well enough and have most likely been using loads of machine learning for many years now

Love the irony that this is hosted on reddit

He doesn't need to swing any voters. He just has to not be a woman

It says "garbage-filled sack" not "garbage sack"?

You literally listed a bunch of reasons why men shouldn't be allowed to message first

Breath of the Wild: stepping out of the cave in the begining, seeing that vast world in front of Link waiting to be explored

The Switch was the first console I had since the PS2, and the PC "gaming" I did in the meantime was mostly retro games on emulators or a bit of Stardew Valley, so the contrast to that was HUGE.

Another one was re-playing Ragnarok Online months after quitting (and giving away all equipment and deleting all characters) with a friend. We were barely second job class (he was Hunter, I was Priest) and rudimentarily equipped enough to beat Abyss Knights, so we went leveling in the area where those sometimes spawn. AND ONE OF THEM DROPPED A CARD! Cards are extremely rare (allegedly 0.01% drop chance) and monster-specific, and the Abyss Knight card is extremely valuable. So from one second to the next, we practically went from piss poor to rich AF.

Another extremely lucky moment was in Diablo 2: a regular cow in the Cow Level dropped a (perfect!) Windforce, at the time one of the best unique items in the game. I don't remember exactly but IIRC from some online calculator the chances for this drop were under one in a million (I wasn't even wearing anything with lots of MF%)

Thanks, I was playing on mobile so didn't even notice

That was fun!

But I don't get the one with
