Little known fact that modern pipes can summon water out of nothing

Is it not normal to have a period of complete motionlessness in the shower?

Dagothwave too?

Fuck yessss, I hope the support is good. They put so much love into that game now I want to see how extra the modding scene will get

I want to know where to get $5 tabs damn

Fam sounds like you need to get out there and make this a reality. $15 is cheap compared to a good memory like this

Haha, in highschool I put sheep.exes into the school labs startup folders as a prank once. A couple days later the tech teacher approached me and was like “nobody’s in trouble but these things are a nightmare and if I have to reimage half the lab to get rid of them it would personally ruin my day”. Somehow all the sheep were gone by the next day

You’ve never spent hours screaming in pain with your only tether to reality being a pillow that you’re chewing on so you don’t clench your jaw tight enough to chip teeth?

My work someone made a robust automated build script, and they left so someone else made a wrapper around it to make it easier to work with, they’re gone now and someone wrote a wrapper around that to extend functionality in a backwards compatible way, but it’s overly complicated for my minimal use cases so I wrote a batch file to call it with my default settings…

I never stopped my COVID routine so I’m not really doing anything different to prepare but I am at least a little prepared. Going to buy one of those emergency 5-gallon buckets of dehydrated food this time around though, like next time I’m at a bulk food not as shit hits the fan.

I haven’t put much thought into if it is overblown because realistically I’d prefer to see a big fuss over nothing than to see people sit back with a beer while their neighbors die. So I’m not going to treat it like we’re overreacting I’m going to be pretty serious about things.

Never in my life have I found someone else who knows about that movie. Scene in question

Billions of queries becoming way more energy intensive for a feature almost nobody asked for, now the default. What the fuck are we even doing

Obsidian on my local machine, changes get pushed to GitHub, Jenkins pipeline is triggered, I like to use multibranch pipelines with Jenkinsfiles, ObsidianHTML is called and uses a config file in the repo, scp and ssh to send everything to the host server. The order it moves things is a bit specific to try and reduce downtime: New site gets sent to host server with a temp directory name, old directory is renamed, new directory is renamed to be what the old one was, and then the old one is deleted. Getting the build server to actually have the tools installed for ObsidianHTML was kinda a pita had to do a lot of figuring out which versions of Python were supported where and update a lot of stuff without breaking other parts of the build server relying on older Python versions. My build and host servers are two separate droplets with DigitalOcean. ObsidianHTML isn’t being developed anymore so I’d like to replace it with something I make myself one day but I’m not good at web dev in general let alone programmatically building pages

I write a world/setting and host all the notes for it on my own little website. I’m kinda proud of how it is set up: I write things in Obsidian, push changes to a repo, and then a build server picks everything up to turn into a webpage and update the host server. From random thought to website is just a few minutes

When did you retire? Agile has been around for at least 20 years, more like 30 if you count scrum being introduced before agile was formally defined. No matter how critical I am of agile it is hardly a fad at this point

I’m in the game industry. This is entirely person observation I have not studied this topic so can’t source anything

The people I saw going to early mobile market were a lot of handheld console and flash game devs and companies. They were adapting the closest existing game designs and brought with them a “small game small cost” philosophy. It also wasn’t really known yet how impulsive people are on phones. So it was an unproven market with smaller teams and people making yester era design choices. There also used to be a few bigger games with bigger price tags but people didn’t buy into those because anyone willing to spend that on a game at the time would have had a console or PC and could buy a better experience there for the same price.

The only mobile game experience I have was back in like 2012, smart phones were really taking off, and the market for mobile games was proven. The company I worked for we built a release ready game but it never got released. We couldn’t sell it to investors because the monetization was never aggressive enough for them (the investor money at that point was less about making the game and more to fund marketing and stabilizing the studio as a long term business). I quit when my job stopped being dev work and started being round tables about how to psychologically trick players into paying more. Anyway with so much focus on heavy monetization it stopped being economically worth it for a lot of startups to actually make good games when thinly veiled skinner boxes pleased the investors all the same

People put plates in drawers? I don’t think I’ve seen anyone do that ever

Gmail getting the axe would be so bad it would get a section in history books

I don’t understand any of these words, I need to take a math class or something

That shield is so baller! I’ve been trying to figure out a good way to do dust for some of my minis, did you use pigment powder around the feet or something else?

My main criticism is the feet don’t seem to sit right with the ground. The gaps make it look a bit floaty. Very minor detail though and especially from most viewing angles it won’t be visible at all
