Wonder how many of these were "squatted" trucks?

Makes more sense now

I can destroy am destroying the country. FIFY

Well at least its suspect enough to prepare :). I once came in at 9am and we had random people funneling everyone into a conference room with HR people to tell us our department would no longer be needed.

Most Americans don't care either honestly.

I've been WFH for at least 10 years and live in rural area. Starlink was like 150-200$ a month for an unpredictable 5-150mbps and did meh. When I finally got fiber it was sub 100$ a month for 2gbps stable. Not a hard decision :)

I strap GoPros on to hand built FPV Freestyle quadcopters and make videos out of it. When I lived in Orlando there were a few of us doing it. Lately I know of 0 in my area.

I've had a few serious burnouts and anhedonia is a big tell. When I start to lose joy in pretty much everything I know I've hit a wall. Someone else in here talked about a sense of dread when you think about work, that's a clear sign for me too. Exhaustion is common.

They fuck everybody, just in different ways :)

Yep. Exactly how I learned they were out of stock. :)

Yeah, pretty much. https://www.unicor.gov/ if you want to find everything made that isn't food as well. It's a huge part of the industry.

That's a cool hobby!

I'm so spun out on political garbage I thought that lemmy headline said that Marjorie Taylor Green and Dungeon and Dragons won't use AI anytime soon. /me facepalm

Kinda wierd right? Who'd it demand it too, most don't have TVs let along hang out on Twitter or Fox News? Almost like this was a distrac.......oh wait

I never was a Tweeter, but I joined it when it was new just to hang out with the artists and gamers. I just recently deleted my account. It's not for me. Becoming too Twitteresque. Smaller Mastodon instances have better communities and more relevant posts for me.

Yeah, I feel like I understand. AI has recently invaded the homebrew, retro computing and fantasy hardware spaces as well. This is a space that isn't conducive to fame, glory or money and is really just filled with us old cats reliving the mystery and awe of 6502/6809 programming. Everyday lately, I see someone posting about how awesome their clone of is. Posting some file written by some AI tool. It always follows with "I used and I have quite a few bugs to work out but its working."

To me, it feels like it devalues all of the work put in to learning these older skills and techniques. Makes me feel like I wasted a lot of time trying to learn and understand them. F'it. I'm ready to retire anyway. I need to play more golf or bocce or something outdoors anyway. It will be a while before AI invades that.

Yeah for sure. I can be over-stimulated by the story pretty easy. The first couple endings I pulled in Cyperpunk were very dark and tragic. Plagues Tale: Requiem after playing both games is a killer. I had some bad decisions in the final run in Veilguard that got my favorite character killed in a tragic way then had to answer for it later. Of course Last Of Us 2. Many others.

I read that one a couple times and I'm not sure what they are saying. Is it to learn from the (alleged) mistakes of Veilguard to ensure that doesn't happen with any remasters? Or just literally blame Veilguard to make ME 5? The article is kinda unclear. It might just be me though.

71....same :)

In retrospect (35-40 years ago now) she was the keeper. She was sweet, quirky and supportive. Liked rock/metal, concerts, games, generally nerdy stuff like me. But...like a teenage dude as soon as someone exotic and hot showed interest I broke up with her. That exotic one "dear john lettered" me in basic training before Desert Storm and slept will all my friends. I think there's a lesson in there somewhere.
