  • I am right now sitting in the foyer of my new job waiting for first day orientation to start and I am already cursing the fact that I had to get up so early and go across the entire city just to not die.

  • They explained (in a now deleted response on twitter) that they targeted the Internet Archive because the US government is implicated in the ongoing genocide in Gaza and the Internet Archive belongs to the US.

    A cursory search could've revealed that that's simply untrue.

    Some people on twitter assume this is actually a Russian attack coinciding with the election, because apparently many journalists rely on the Internet Archive for research and sourcing.

    Also they pay Elon $8 a month.

  • They were doing exactly that. The pairs of pipes coming out the sides of the barrel are more charges, being timed to go right after the projectile goes through.

    Didn't work well also barrel life of like 5 shots and you can't aim it or move it. Dumb, like everything they did.

  • To quote my best guy:

    The Nazis entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everyone else, and nobody was going to bomb them.

  • We shopped around for a bit, read reviews and talked to some SR veteran players and most pointed to SR4 being the one to go with.

    But Anarchy sounds like a thing I should look into, thanks!

  • SR lore is so good and the system has so much potential.

    We've switched from D&D to SR4 and BOY does that rulebook have a lot of holes. So many contradictions and omissions, so often things are very unclear. Top that with the insane decision to have the group play basically three separate space-time lines with the real world, the spirit world and the matrix. Let's all wait around the table for an hour while our decker does matrix that takes a second of in-game time and then our shaman projects into the astral plane and that's not as fast as the matrix but still a lot faster and takes another hour but it's only a minute in-game.

    We stopped after like 6 months. And it's a shame because the world is so fun.

  • Oh, all's well, friend. Long story short: Mega heavy depression from early teens, diagnosed in my early twenties after years of substance abuse, tried to off myself, odyssey of therapists, got better for some years, got bad again, got a great psychiatrist, got on some fantastic meds that we tweak occasionally (got rid of the sweaty pills).

    I'm in my thirties, have a family, life is good (apart from /late-stage capitalism and my countries slow and seemingly inevitable decline into fascism).

  • My ABCC11 gene is in it's recessive AA form.

    Which is more common in Asians, but I am European. This means my earwax is almost white and completely dry, which makes it just crumble/flake out. But more importantly, my sweat is almost odourless. I am a bigger dude and sweat a lot as it is. When I used to take a certain medication that made me sweat insane amounts I would literally be wet above the belt when I walked a minute. No stank. I check regularly and have my partner check my smell but I legit have to shower more often because my hair is greasy than because of body odour. When I had super short hair the thing that made me want to shower is when my skin gets oily, which happens after about five days. I still shower every other day because hygiene, but it's a really nice perk.

    Don't be too jealous though, nature balanced that out with heaps of mental health issues.
