For me, I will always remember the first time I beat the final boss on The Legend of Dragoon after several hundred hours of gameplay…

Mindless screentime, sure it’s bad, but engaging in a long and detailed interactive story that happens to be on a screen? Ain’t nothing else like it.

You’ll come back to it, for everything there is a time. When the time is right you will do it again, more than you thought you ever would. There’s only so much time in the day and for the journey you’re on there’s too many needs that must be fulfilled for the amount of time you have. Take your time.

To quote Fry from Futurama “SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY”

300 characters isn’t enough to get deep into the nuances, but commercial viability is the problem here. Electric tools (and cars) have always been around, the problem is that there was always a major compromise that made them unattractive and it almost always had to do w. Cords or batteries.

That’s an improvement yes, but it’s not the main reason they’re now commercially viable. Try running the mower offa deep cycle lead-acid battery array, to get the same power delivery and voltage and length of use, you’re talking *at least* half a dozen chonky-boi batteries that take a day to charge

We legit now have battery powered *lawnmowers and snowblowers* that can work similarly to a *gas engine* and it is almost entirely because of battery tech improvements. Electric motors are still much the same as they were, we just now can actually deliver the power draw they crave under load.

This is quite possibly one of your best videos ever. I stayed late at work because I didn’t want to pause it to go to my car for the last 20 minutes. Immaculate, no notes.

Third party votes ARE wasted votes so long as we have the structural deficiencies in our election system to turn third parties into spoilers for the two major parties. Unless you can simultaneously convince everyone within a camp to vote for them, all you’re doing is splitting the ticket and losing.

HI FINN!

He’s beautiful, you’re gonna do great! Hope you’re recovering well!

The only positive thing I have to say about Musk re: Tesla is that it was an incredibly smart move to build out a charger network before majorly pushing the cars. But that was *ages* ago now, every decision since has either been tepid or stupid, and in some cases, like here, bordering on fraud.

Unfortunately it’s not doing its job.

Funny story, I didn’t check the news before checking BlueSky this time, so this vaguepost made me check the news to see “Oh hey, Water *is* Wet”

Knickers

Every Tech Bro: “Imagine if we made this thing that everyone already knows about, and just do that but with inserting ourselves as a middleman to skim off some more of the money off the top and also make the poverty situation 10x worse.”

“So anyway, these lights demonstrate the importance of latent heat of vaporization…wait”

Though f’realz, assuming they’re Cycle indicators?

I will never to this day understand the obsession with *perfect* lawns. Even when they are well-maintained they look absolutely soulless, you don’t need this specific shitty kind of grass for erosion control or softness underfoot, and you spend a fortune to get next to nothing in return. Madness.

Now if they made a web browser that could only connect to things that haven’t been touched by “AI,” THAT I could get behind. But that would be helping the consumer stakeholders, not the shareholder.

One of the few universal truths about humans conversing in groups, is that if there is ever a medical condition mentioned that someone has, every single person who has a pet remedy they swear by will jump on the chance to give a “Have you tried [insert their remedy here]?” Response.

Nothing gets a Bostonian more riled up than the notion of a King. Same today as 250 years ago.

The one thing uniting Americans is that Trump is a terrible president and his admin is hurting us all. Great to see so many out in droves to bring attention to the fact that we know it.

I love when it comes up because we’ve already reaped most of the benefits of flying cars with regular car infra, Bridges and tunnels exist. What is adding a 3rd dimension o travel for people to not pay enough attention to going to do for us? We’d have to strictly regulate the paths you can go anyway

It can and will get worse, he’s already mobilizing the military directly against the citizenry. We’re in a full fascist dictatorship trying to take over our country. This is *literally* how it happened in 1930s Germany.

We’re already in a civil war.

With that ultimatum given, He should call them up to defend the state against Trump, as clearly he’s the biggest threat the state of Illinois currently faces.

We are Jimmy Kimmel.

Depends. Is the Dungeon properly underground or just a part of a castle? If the former, is it large and filled with baddies or relatively small and sparse? Because my money is on the dragon since dungeons are inanimate, but if it is large and contains enough things to kill it, then the math changes.

Weird how thousands of innocent children die and there’s absolutely no outcry from them, and it gets instantly downplayed. One conservative talking head gets the same as the children and it’s instantly politicized beyond the scope of what happened.

To the writer of this article:

Europe, the continent where it is possible to go from your apartment in one building in one city in one country and visit your friend in their building in another city in another country, all without touching a single car, has fallen behind? Behind who?

And everyone’s hoping to see it in their lifetime
