  • Alright, I definitely will! This looks exactly up my alley.

  • What kind you got? My flavour is a feeling out of nowhere like I can't breathe.

    It has been a lot better since I stopped drinking, though.

  • I'm pretty busy with work and family stuff, but if you're looking for a pen pal I'd give it a shot.

  • I've got one that I treat like gold. They're a childhood friend that is a divorced alcoholic ex-con that went down the keto->carnivore->jordan-peterson->red-pill->gamer-gate pipeline, so not exactly a quality human. But I like to think I'm doing society a favour by keeping tabs on them.

    I wish I had a better best friend, but I'm lucky to have even this one.

  • It was a "straw poll" (some external poll website) that was posted earlier somewhere around here. I remember voting on it

  • ^r tar and adjust as needed. Got it

  • Damn this is a great illustration

  • Welcome but next time make that a St. Ho

  • Similarly, it's if I really start looking at the scenery. Like zooming in on desks and and where textures meet and stuff to a) see all the worldbuilding details, and b) to see the level designer / env artist's work up closer.

  • Got my love and understanding of the Humanities from an ex.

  • smh for real. May as well just make our own at this point

  • I couldn't tell you the technical reasons, but yeah same concept: Break the source data in just the right way that the end result is interpret-able, but with interesting defects. There is a bit of an art to cutting and pasting and sculpting the data in just the right way. You get a feel for it after a while.

  • Ah, nihilocapitalism. Figures. I spent some years in that hole.

    I've since learned that socialism, and by extension caring for others, actually leads to more personal gratification in the long term. But we always knew the high road was the best road.

  • Prospect (2018, movie) - It steals all the cool you associate with crunchy sci-fi short-stories, and gets away with it. Beautiful, lovingly detailed interior sets. Sparse exposition, leaving your snatching at any little turn of phrase or namedrop wondering if it's world-building, or just how the characters talk. Just the right length. Respect for not making it Yet Another Miniseries (YAM (this is my acronym, you'll never see it again)).

    Also wow, I haven't read any reviews until now, and I'm glad I hadn't. If you like sci-fi just watch it. It's 1 and a 1/2 hours long. I've already told you too much.

  • I used it back in my Windows days. Out of the box, I think it's the only way to do rich text on Windows. Also (used to be anyway) one of the less resource intensive options.

    You know, for when you've got Napster, Winamp (with visualisation), ICQ, and MSN all up and barely running. You don't want to have to run, like, WordPerfect at the same time! Your MP3s will start skipping :p
