Not the billionaires

There's a what if for that!

Turns out you can get knocked over by a feather!

I hope he stays away from stairs and 3rd+story windows

But let it say nothing about the intelligence or creativity of modern engineers.

I was too undisciplined, and looking back I probably have too low of intelligence ceiling, for engineering, those guys are cut from a different cloth.

Also because we require them to do it for the minimum amount of all disturbances rather than the maximum amount of durability, says more about our values of society rather than their ability to engineer.

Love this one the most. So many levels. Practically multivariable.

You should be happy there's a "one of the thousand" visiting here today.

Don't look up is the Donnie darko of the 2020's.

It really wasn't that great.

Maybe Donnie darko crossed with Napoleon dynamite, in that it's "humor"seems to be something that only hits with certain people. Imo it was too stupid to be funny (and not just the Republican straw men)

Certainly not a case of survivorship bias and public confirmation. Nope definitely no Roman ruins around. The kids these days are all stupid and lazy.

Hell yes! Grandma was wild! I love old person stories, so many of them are fabricated, but also so many that I think are fabricated turn out to be legitimate. Oh you did party with (famous people from back in the day)? No shit...

I hate it as a tactic that's been used on me, but darn if it isn't effective. Also I genuinely appreciate people who offer their advice when I'm doing something foolishly, but my actions are from a place of genuine ignorance, not trying to catch someone into my friend circle.

Tell that to

Man I should've read through the comments before I made a reply comment to another person, I could've added a source for every one of my "games will complain about X if a sequel is released" just from the comments here.

Rebuilding from code up instead of continuously adding to an overburdened foundation, I don't know why he'd want to start fresh at all. And he can't just rebuild and re release because the "mod scene"would pitch a fit

"gamers" would have a cow if there was ever a sequel seriously discussed. He already charged them once, how dare he charge them again.

I suspect 10-20% of the community would take that stance, even if it's only a few%, it would absolutely be magnified by the echo chamber and there will be talk or how concerned ape left stardew valley "incomplete" and it's "abandon-ware"and all future products should be pirated.

Do something poorly/dangerous in the gym, attach yourself (politely) to the person who comes to help,

Or do something you're passionate about and offer your knowledge to people who are earnestly trying their best but not doing it well (be conscience and ask if they'd like your experience to guide them)

Alternatively go hang out at an old folks home, they'd love your company, they'll regail you with stories from their glory days, and they'll probably talk you up to their family.

Volunteer your time at animal shelters/public service events.

Very easy to tell if someone knows what they wrote about in a two minute conversation. My wife grades/t.a's at a university, it's obvious when someone doesn't know the information in person (and she's very understanding towards people who cannot verbalize the information but still know it). The old professors aren't very keen to it, but the graders can very easily smell the bullshit.

And if you know the information well enough, but send it through gpt for editing/refinement, that's usually accepted, unless you're in a class that grades on composition.

It's black cat time!

This young guy could learn from a regal fella like yours.

Over 200 of them! 5 countries were eager to sign two deals with us! That's twice the deal!

I would love for the media to not cover stupid shit like this, getting us all be distracted from official legislative and executive actions, but this is a legislative action, what in the actual fuck are the repugnantcans doing with our fucking tax dollars.

Look back in ten years and do the figures yourself.

It's not bad unless you want it to be bad. In ten years it'll be nothing.
