What sound does a cow make? Moo. What sound does a dog make? Woof. What sound does a cat make? Meow. What sound does a pig make? UP AGAINST THE WALL MOTHER FUCKER.

People are surely entitled to their own opinions. I read yours. I've concluded that you're a moron.

my homie refdesk just called and said "we are so fucking back"

Yup, same here. Never really understood the G-Shock thing until I got one. The 5610U is truly one of the best watches hands down, and they're cheap. I find myself using timers and alarms much more because I may not have my phone at all times (around the house etc). Solar to boot? It really doesnt get much better, they're fantastic.

The Henry Kissinger series was incredible.

Have to agree. Siamese Dream by the Smashing Pumpkins executes on this so perfectly.

My cousin and I would play all day because you could just make the lobbies so crazy with the bot options. It was almost more fun than actually playing haha. Spent hours and hours finding the best killrooms for the laptop gun sentry.

I don't remember the specific article I read that dove into this but it was essentially sold due to it being one of the first large data collections (user data). I'm not sure the extent its traweled now but before the social media machine took off, it was the largest if not one of the largest concentrations of actual data points to run algorithms against.

Love that they clarified that after being called out, as if that somehow makes it more acceptable. "See? It was to charity guys, you think making money for charity is a bad thing?" While still missing the mark completely and refusing to send said prototype back.

Talk about moving goalposts. They fucked up.

Not quite. Even the accepted amount poses increased threats to being diagnosed with cancer (it is a carcinogen at the end of the day): https://www.niaaa.nih.gov/alcohols-effects-health/alcohols-effects-body

It is incredibly worse with breast cancer too.

"Evidence is consistent that intake, even intake of less than 10-15 grams per day, is associated with increased risk of this disease"

I'm seeing if I can get through tactician with this build, and it seems like it's going well so far (no spoilers): necromancer wizard with weapon master feat to use great weapons. Haven't added armor yet since I'm relying on blur for dodge, shield reaction, and blindness for large threats. Almost done with act 1 so I'm not sure how the power fantasy will look like later in the game or what items are available.

This has revolved around an item that sets intelligence to a specific value. So I was able to drop all int, put it into strength, and essentially be a lich-esque wizard. Been interesting to say the least and teleporting to baddies with misty step has been a lot of fun. I may go into the tadpole tree and spec into the skill that punishes when enemies miss their rolls (which they are disadvantaged from via blur and also the ilithid skill itself). The sustain is good with vampiric touch; and if I fall under half health for whatever reason, I have a greataxe that does additional damage.

This game is amazing so far.

 

Decided to lean into a no Windows setup, including for gaming. I’ve swapped over from X on the basis that I’ll be using a 7900 XTX, and wanted to spend some time preparing a Wayland setup to reduce configuration time on the desktop.

Dots are on GitHub, but I haven’t had the chance to rewrite the readme yet; the current tooling is as follows:

  • WM/Compositor: Hyprland, using XWayland USE flags for certain items (discord, obsidian)
  • Term: foot
  • Media: mpv
  • Code/notes: nvim using lazy.nvim, hooks into obsidian.md
  • Files: ranger

What surprised me the most is that gestures worked out of the box which has been incredible. I just picked up an apple trackpad for the desktop as well, which works out of the box as expected.

Edit: https://github.com/adrnbs/.dotfiles - again, take readme with a grain of salt as a number of items have been updated vs what is checked into configs.
