I think one of the saddest things about being a millennial is remembering a time when technology was advancing in a way that made life better and easier and more exciting instead of actively, intentionally worse

I still don't understand why Linux's progress bars for file copies are "to a buffer you don't know exists" rather than "to the actual place you're copying to"

In what circumstance would a user care about the progress to the buffer and not to the actual destination. Come on.

you can tell that OpenGL is a better religion than Christianity, because OpenGL has a SuperBible, while Christianity only has a normal bible

I'm not familiar with most of the things discussed in this video that people have been upset about but agree with her response.

Thinking the world should be trauma-proofed so you don't have to encounter anything shocking leads only to censorship.

"How hard can this be?" I ask myself, full of hubris as I start a project having forgotten every single basic tenet of what I'm doing

Main barrier will be getting search results to not show in French.

Given the Online Safety Act, I spent this morning doing some ping testing, and it seems that using my servers will be completely acceptable even when gaming. I have one in Canada, and one in France - I can just switch connection if I'm connecting to US-based stuff and need the extra milliseconds.

Brits can get around Discord's age verification thanks to Death Stranding's photo mode, bypassing the measure introduced with the UK's Online Safety Act. We tried it and it worksβ€”thanks, Kojima The UK's new act blocks access to adult content without identification. Turns out, you only need a copy of Death Stranding and a phone to get around it.

Finally doing the first Shadowbringers dungeon after farming tomestones and god. This music. This lore. Absolutely PEAK.

Also I dunno if I'm just having bad RNG or not but Holy SEEMS to be doing less damage than usual when it's against a Sin Eater. That's a nice detail if it's deliberate.

What's going on with AM5 motherboards? Like... where are the PCIe slots? These things are supposed to have more PCIe lanes than AM4 did, but I can find boards with two PCIe slots at most. When I do find a board that has 3 x16 slots, the fine print says that all but one of them run at x1 speeds.

You're telling me that all this time tomestones were just smartphones

How does Khloe have so many to give out every week. She's a child.

In other news I am finally like six quests away from the end of Stormblood. By which I mean post-Stormblood, because people get uppity when I include the lead-up to the next expansion as part of the main stuff

And I’ll die on this fucking hill.

If you believe people have to pay for what you consider a β€œhuman right” then you do not believe it is indeed a human right. You believe it’s a privilege for those who can afford it.
