Something my friend told me is that there are 3 easy tells of an undercover cop:

• Buff
• Alone
• Dresses very averagely (compared to the queer people around him)

If someone matches all 3 descriptors, it is likely they're a cop

I think the greenery in these pictures is doing quite a bit of lifting. Brutalist buildings without plants are less fun to look at

I don't have much if an opinion on the rest of your argument but:

probably before most people started realizing it was being trained off stolen artwork as well as a lot of the other problems with AI.

This is the equivalent to those Tesla owners pasting "I bought this before Elon went crazy" stickers. Especially the creative industries were very quick to point out the problematic part of stuff like Dall-E and stable diffusion. Generative Graphical AI has never been approved of by the gamedevs I know.

Spheres of Chaos is an old asteroids based game that really ups the ante on trippyness and cool sounds

I should warn you though that it is very flashy, so epilepsy warning is in order

Short for Just Asking Questions. Where people ask loaded questions that act as a veneer to their actual statements. If you want to accuse them of the fact they are talking shit, they'll say they're "just skeptical" and "asking questions"

Right now people are theorizing 2 possible coalitions, the first one is PVV - NSC - VVD and the other one is GLPVDA - NSC - VVD - D66. This means we're either getting a far-right populist as the prime minister or we are getting a coalition that will get us absolutely nowhere and will change nothing from the status quo, while also likely destroying leftist support even more because of how little to coalition will be capable of vs. what the leftist party (GLPVDA) promised

We're not doing okay

that wasn't my intention

Ironically, by saying that you're just doing The Thing again

For me it's not the time spent at the checkout that matters, it's the time spent waiting at the checkout. Also over here cashiers don't bag your items for you, so you have to do that anyway

Also also, they have these really handy hand scanners over here so I can already bag my items while I'm walking through the store, and then the only thing I have to do at self-checkout is hand in the scanner and pay for the groceries. That is genuinely a lot faster than normal cash register shenanigans.

Too bad they don't come with an unlockable bootloader

Wendy's tried to get into the Netherlands, but couldn't, because there was already a snackbar (think small fastfood place but greasier) that was registered under the name "Wendy's" at the chamber of commerce. This spawned a lawsuit. You had Wendy's, a local snackbar who claimed rights to the name because they were already established, and Wendy's, a franchise coming from America. They claimed right to the name because they were a franchise, and not just a single fastfood joint.

To solve this issue, the local snackbar opened up a second location, making local Wendy's a franchise, and winning them the lawsuit

You feel like reality around you is changing

The word URINE echoes around you...

"Nightcore = sped up normal version" was always a bit of a derogatory term towards the genre as it started to pick up steam and people got more lazier with it

As far as my experience goes, This was Nightcore proper. Admittedly not much has changed from the original, but it's still more than moving up the BPM slider

Count this comment as irrelevant if you will, but I think one of the biggest missed opportunities of EGS is mod support. They have this world-class game engine, and they do so little with it. Maybe it is because of Unreal Tournament 4 failing to take off. Maybe they think just hamfisting a bunch of this modding stuff into Fortnite is all they need, but still I feel like the EGS version of the steam workshop is an open goal. Hell, with the money they're saving from pawning off Bandcamp you can even buy off mod.io to get support for virtually no work at all. Like why hasn't this happened yet?

Hate to be that guy, but all those articles are 5 years or older. Have people had more recent complaints about systemd or did that movement that complains about it kinda move on?

No that's Michael Dorn.

þorn is 2022 video game which was for a large part inspired by the works of H.R. Giger and Zdzisław Beksiński

Thunderbird has matrix support now? 🤯

I thought the entire point of this Liberty Media era of f1 was so that it appealed more to Americans why are they doing this

Hit the uvula!
