LRT I remember back when reading a thermistor required zero internet wifis at all.

Also apparently I've just completely lost the part of my filter that stops me from saying "Jesus fuck" out loud now so that's nice too

A fucking subway that should have cost maybe $10 just cost me $18 because I guess people on campus are a captive audience, but I'm definitely not going there ever again

Just wasted like two hours because we put 3TiB disks in an old system that doesn't understand >2TiB disks

There's even a script to automate it in case you have a lot of stuff in your library (haven't tried it myself yet though)

For anyone else planning on moving off GOG, just want to throw it out there that their distribution *is* DRM free installers, so you can back up your entire library before you go if you want, and they gain nothing from it.

But hey, if I ever need grains by the metric tonne, I know where to go now.

It's surprisingly hard to figure out where to buy crop grass seeds (oat, barley, wheat) locally, in quantities suitable for a person instead of a farm, and not at absurd markup. Looking at you, and your like $30 packets of seed, Amazon.

Literally my only reaction to absolutely everything at work today has been an incredibly tired "oh for fucks sake"

I just looked at our roll-off roof controller code and I hate whoever wrote this.

As individual customers, we don't always have a lot of visibility into how any given game was made. But when someone does get the story out there, and we DO learn about the level of exploitation happening, the least we can do is say "I'm not going to be part of this"

While we're busy being angry at games, don't buy RDR2. Just skip it. I'm sure it's probably fun but there's like a million other games out there.

I mean, yeah, a bunch of games are made on 100hr/wk crunch. It's hard to avoid. But the spotlight is on Rockstar now, so...

No, just because I watched like, two videos of raptors doing raptor things, it doesn't mean I want your shitty recommendation algorithm to try to show me nonstop videos of animals getting killed, what the shit YouTube

I think both adult red tails might be wintering here. Neither has left yet.

This is like the fourth or fifth time GoG has done something like this.
Maybe GoG is just a trash company run by asshole children who don't deserve a dime of your business.

also I basically don't do anything but work and am constantly exhausted, so I really really hope whatever you have to do to achieve this is easy because I absolutely do not have much brain space left for adding frustrating, fiddly new manual steps to everything I do, especially when I only even remember masto exists once or twice a day.
