All I'm saying is, if you ran a campaign on democracy being at stake and democracy lost, isn't it time to be massively freaking out instead of doing this

Not only did I lose guitars, but in the gig bags I had (handwritten) songs I wrote in high school, when I was an emo/punk kid. And let me say while reading back these drenched papers from 16 year old me… SOME THINGS ARE MEANT TO BE LOST 😬

Thanks bud. I know we’ll be all right in the long run. Still a little worried about the cost of everything (furnace, water heater, washer/dryer). But we’ll find a way to make everything work.

I am now of the opinion, for reasons completely unrelated to what happened to us this week, that water is the strongest Pokemon type

We got so much help from family and friends clearing out our basement and removing an incredible amount of water. Trying to live in that gratitude as much as possible right now.

Long road ahead with trips to the dump, and somehow replacing important appliances. One day at a time.

Waking up today and reality is starting to sink in. I still can’t comprehend everything we lost in the flood. There are some things we’re almost certainly never going to replace. But we’re okay, and that’s what matters.

Thanks man. Nobody was prepared for these floods. I know that at the end of the day, we’re fortunate. A looooot of work ahead of us though.

Stuff can be replaced
We’ll always have the memories, but
Stuff helps us keep the memories
So it’s okay to feel like losing the stuff
Is losing more than the stuff

We wound up 8 hours without power and a basement that got as high as a foot of water. I don’t know, guys. This really, really sucks.

Well over two hours without power and there’s a flash flood. And We Energies has posted no updates this whole time. Water level is looking mighty high in the sump pump.

Uh. That’s not good.

Bo Melton switched to DB and is wearing 16. They should be forced to trade numbers.

I know it’s preseason but we should let that stand as the record, wow

It’s a bummer to see this happen to talented, great people, but unsurprising to see Mike handle this the best and most heartfelt way he can.

Game development is spending thirty minutes writing hundreds of lines of code and three hours trying to find a comma you missed

I got this mouse in January 2024 and used it nearly every day since. Today was the first time I changed the single AA battery in it. Might be one of my favorite pieces of tech I own.

If you go to your iPhone’s accessibility settings, turn on the grayscale color filter, then go to Twitter, you can get an idea of what social media would’ve looked like before the emancipation proclamation was signed

There are certainly a bunch of other examples, but this game and Balatro share a very catchy set of mechanics that work so well for mobile games:

Runs;
A sandbox of powers the player combines to optimize runs;
Gradual ability and challenge unlocks;
Score bursts;
A tiny piece of β€œmini-mart” luck

When it doesn't, it's worth paying attention to whether their unaccountability is structural or individual.

Question: Is there a wolfenstein game where they used AI to build a sentient mecharobot hitler?
