Was that song in this game too? It’s been stuck in my head for decades from SSX Tricky on XBOX.

That’s no bird, that’s a blimp.

I hated the walking physics in 4. It was like drunk mode the way he swayed around and delayed as you tried to switch directions.

I bet WW2 museum employees aren’t even real Nazis!

That’s also a legal issue with autonomous cars.

Autonomous cars can also get into basically the trolley problem. If an accident is unavoidable, but the car can swerve and kill its own passenger to avoid killing more people in a larger wreck, should it? And would that end up as more liability for whoever takes the blame?

With the joy of high deductible health plans you can pay thousands of dollars in network, because they can get away with it.

What do you use for tiling? I’ve been curious about this setup, but the software setup sounds like a pain compared to 2 monitors.

I prefer to flip the PSU switch to the wrong position. Because there’s no other point in time when I ever use that switch.

As of December they added re-entry heat and allegedly improved wobbling in the “For Science” update by the way.

But I’m still watching and waiting for it to improve before buying. Reviews for it have been higher lately, but I don’t really trust the reviews when the devs set the bar so low. Everyone’s too desperate for it to finally be worth playing. It still doesn’t even sound as feature-complete as KSP1.

It might not just be a skill issue for that game. The PC version has serious performance issues from what I hear.

I just started it on PS5 and even then the combat has been pretty clunky. I beat Elden Ring where fights usually felt difficult but fair. So far Jedi Survivor just feels frustrating with ignored button inputs and animations that last too long.

Sure you can alter circumstances to an extent and that’s probably the best way to live life. But all the good in the world doesn’t stop a freak car crash killing you or being struck by lightning. And while being struck by lightning is used synonymously with an act of god, I don’t think it actually means you deserved it. That’s the issue with the just-cause fallacy. It takes a huge spoonful of selection bias to only notice the people who did deserve it.

In my opinion the idea of karma is a convenient crowd control mechanism to prevent people from taking action to fix their situation when they have faith that the universe will magically balance itself out.

Obligatory definitions of fascism #8:

Fascist societies rhetorically cast their enemies as “at the same time too strong and too weak”.

I understand OP’s sentiment that google’s getting worse, but this sounds like ragebait. No examples of what they searched for an hour.

This seems most correct. “Heights” probably comes from “high horse”.

The takeaway I got from the movie is it’s not really about the theory, it could be literally anything that brings people together. It’s just about being part of a community and being respected somewhere. Of course you can’t logic someone out of that.

It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.

…But also his friendships, and entire sense of worth.

$3.10 minimum wage in 1980. Equivalent to ~$11.50 per hour today, higher than today’s minimum wage.

That sounds like a good thing! I’ve replayed through it at least 3 times over the years.

You who are so wise in the ways of pig fiction: how does a wolf blow when it has no lips?

Googling “dark star astronomy” comes up with plenty of info on it.
