Yeah, the performance pushed me away as well. I haven't had a graphics card struggle in a long time. It was very painful to see it happen to me in VR. Like damn near nauseating.

Oh my god yes!

I always thought that heaven sounds like hell. It'll be great for about a week but eventually nonstop perfection would become so monotonous. Like playing a video game that you completed for all eternity. It'd be the worst kind of torture, to make everything you love into something you get bored of.

Have you looked at resonite at all? It is what they're trying to aim for.

I've brought it up before but every time I mention it's been like that for over a decade, they all lose interest

My neck clicks whenever I turn to the right.

If it's twice, it's not a random twitch or awkward wave. He sieg heiled the front and the back

I mean... it's not, quite nature... but a massive cornfield, surrounded by more cornfields, surrounded by more cornfields.

One of my relatives is a farmer and I remember sitting on his porch and hearing absolutely nothing, nothing but corn. His neighbors grew corn, his neighbor's neighbors grew corn. It was just, pure corn stalks. Everywhere.

No bugs chirping

No birds flapping

No squirrels running around

No cars on the road

No planes in the sky

Just wind through fucktons of corn. It was so surreal. It was the closest thing I've ever heard to total silence. It was like living in a barren wasteland but everything was green, with endless food. It was both chill and unsettling all at the same time.

Oh god don't tell me it's another case of Elon getting carried by a hire to level him up.

Biden was the first president since LBJ who actually gave some of a shit about the working class

... like, even in your defense of Biden, he only gave some of a shit. Not even a full one.

Joking aside, I think you need to think long and hard as to why you can't just say "He was great president." You're not comparing him to LBJ. Not comparing his actions to Biden's or his cabinet to Biden, or his bills to Biden. You're literally one step above saying "Well Biden has at least done something since the time of LBJ" That's a VERY low bar, may as well just be the floor.

Basically I think he failed to realize that nobody gives a shit if the people at the very bottom end of the scale are making way more money

Where is that in your link? Is that your jobs an unemployment sections? That's not the poorest of the poor. The unemployment numbers often don't reflect people who are homeless. They're woefully inept in a lot of ways. It also clashes with the "Record high after record high on Wall Street" section.

corruption and inaction is going to hamper whoever the president is, whether it be Biden or Bernie Sanders or Che Guevara. How you solve that problem, I don’t know. But certainly, throwing one of them who did seem to moderately care about the working class unapologetically to the wolves, denying he did anything at all, and bashing him at every opportunity, isn’t exactly going to help.

Verdant Banana's not throwing Biden under the bus though. The only people in this article are Abby Vesoulis and Faiz Shakir. If anybody is being thrown it's them.

If anything, you and Banana seem to agree that corruption and inaction is going to hamper the DNC and don't know how to solve it. Banana just has given up hope it ever will.

Oh that's clever, I'm keeping this one in my back pocket

What's at the start of an era, twice in a generation, nowhere in an instant, but awaits you at the end of time?

thank you kindly, that was satisfying.

where's the gif/video?

You mean to tell me you're only gonna tell us you found an oddly satisfying thing and NOT gonna show it??

what a tease.

I'm not really ON facebook. But way too many of my friends use it as a way to send invites to events. I literally just pop in every other week to check notifications and see if anybody invited me to anything. It's kind of infuriating how no other method makes it so easy to just invite 20 people somewhere.

The fediverse doesn't have a decent calendar/invite solution does it?

I'm always a huge fan of Deep Rock Galactic, Moonring, Rimworld

Yeah, both ties are too high, definitely prefer the bow tie though.

What I usually do is think about all the time today when I wanted to be left alone. To be uninterrupted. To just get five minutes to myself.

Because now, I have it. I have all the time in the world. I can do nothing. I can let my mind wander. No one will interrupt, no one will dump bullshit on me. Countless times today I just wanted a pause button for five minutes and now I have hours to just do nothing.

Then I wake up and realize "nope, all that time is now gone". Can't catch a fuckin break.

... I don't know what to say.

Here's a guy that seems to finally start following some of your worldviews. Starts preaching a bit of your gospel, and your first reaction seems to be.

"You're too slow. You're clearly fake because a true linux and open source user would've sacrificed themselves to a pipeline that did not work for them."

Why can't you just be happy and smug right now that a creator has moved away from corporate and into the open source realm?

Because now this stuff is in a better working state.

Linux now supports most video games (successfully played elden ring, drg, and Balatro this weekend) open office is far more reliable.

The options now WORK

I won't say it's hated but I feel like it completely fell under the radar because of covid.

Ron's Gone Wrong

I really liked it. It came out of 20th century studios, I suppose it's technically under Disney now. It got released and no one gave it the time of day.
