Dude I barely eat half the time, regardless it’s a piss poor trade given how AI is quite literally worthless to me. It could disappear tomorrow and I wouldn’t notice if no one talked about it at least for the shit that these data centers are for. For all the resources dumped into this dumbfuck AI race we could’ve done damned near anything else and have gotten more value for it with a fraction of the economic and environmental cost, even a bridge to nowhere has better utility.

So how’s bout we go down the have no AI and do literally anything else bargain.

So less food variety and I get trash for the trade, are you the White run merchant buying any random crap the Dragonborn drags in by any chance?

The giant portions thing is a cultural left over in a lot of ways, food used to be cooked in a far more communal method and often combined supper and lunch then a snack later at night. For example apparently my 2x great grandfather ensured a small feast for him, my great grandfather, his wife (remarried technically not my ancestor), and all the temp workers during harvest. That’s not even getting into things like potlucks.

As for sugar I blame the post war period, arguably the amount of sugar in shit has been decreasing slowly since the 90s but it’s a slow generational thing.

Fallout NV

While it may not be everyone’s cup of tea there’s something about playing NV with radio NV running and running around the emptier parts of the map, then I get jumped by a bunch Romaboo larpers.

Arcanum

While it’s immesian is a bit different it’s music and story telling can drag me in easily.

Outer wilds

Death is inevitable, so you may as well enjoy some music with your pals.

The Jedi were integrated into the Republic as a peacekeeping/ humanitarian/ advisery organization after Darth Bane more or less wiped out the Sith Brotherhood and much of the Jedi led Army of Light at the end of the New Sith Wars. Though both before and after the New Sith Wars there were points where there were Jedi chancellors or even the Jedi de facto taking over when the Republic more or less collapsed a couple time, not even getting into military leader like Revan, Surik, or Lord Hoth who held military positions within the Republic.

I’d suggest Bazzite instead, still gaming oriented but it’s a lot more user friendly than SteamOS which is moreso designed with the steam deck and steam machine in mind.

And my axe!

I know damned well that the term slop has been used since the 90s for food and at least the late 00s for other things. The term shovelware slop comes to mind. Note I don’t remember the 90s I was a month old when it ended but I did watch a lot of 90s media so yeah.

As someone who likes Tyr, Hulkoff, Skald, and Danheim I swear to fuck I want to beat someone’s head in with my musket stock. Seriously the quality just drops and I can only block so many channels, half tempted to just to download all their music and make a fucked up mega playlist on my phone.

Anyone know a good way to download YouTube music on Linux, preferably a program and not a website.

Huh almost sounds like a Jeep. Maybe I’d like to drive an Aztek.

I feel like to count it for a flop you have to account for total produced units as well as the sales. For example if a company produces 100,000 units and sells 99,000 of them those are solid numbers, but if a company produces 400,000 units and only sold 200,000 of those units that honestly a pretty shit sell rate even if they technically sold more.

Are we talking about the lose metal ones you see at like national parks that sound like youre pissing into a metal drum? If so I agree.

Nor am I claiming they are. I’m saying it’d make it more interesting.

I was kinda figuring that it’s after the episode where they get over whatever gripes they have with Costco. Dale most certainly not have a membership card but Hank takes him anyways. Also I don’t think Hank would think it’s communism since Costco is actually a pretty damned good example of Capitalism done right with it undermining competition via lower prices using clever tricks rather than market dominance, he would probably have a different gripes like how far away it is versus how much they save or thinking they’re fucking over customers in some unseen way like selling old food or something.

I imagine it’d probably be something along the lines of Peggy dragging Hank to Costco and Dale tagging along for one reason or another. I could also see it becoming a mild gag in later episodes where Dale and Hank come back from Costco with mostly normal things but Dale buying the occasional weird shit in bulk.

English mostly dropped diacritics since it made things weirdly complicated inter-regionally in England since some regions used them and others didn’t. Frankly if you’re going to try to reform English through non organic it’d probably be better to just toss the latin alphabet outright and make something new. Personally I’d go with using a derivative of Anglo-Frisian runes personally mostly cause it’d be funny.

I feel like it’d be a lot more interesting if they used more random non standard characts like ß, æ, œ for example.

Why are Hank and Dale coming back from a Costco trip? Like don’t get me wrong I could totally see both of them going to Costco and Dale getting into some hijinx with their rotisserie chicken or something, but like why?

Especially since at least in my opinion using metropolitan on a county level is kinda stupid, maybe it works on the east coast and with smaller counties but still once you apply it to say San Bernardino, Riverside, and Kern you’ve over applied it. Seriously San Bernardino is bigger than some countries and states, which for reference Rhode Island is about 1,500 square miles while San Bernardino is about 20,000 square miles with probably only half of that being populated with any amount of reasonable density. Source for the density I’m from this county and get pegged by random assholes outside the state as being from San Bernardino county hell some of the more experienced ones can even guess who I’m related to.

Honestly instance doesn’t fully account for everything for example I’m a Californian yet I’m using a Canadian instance both because I like the name but also I think it’s funny since both California and Canada can be shortened to just CA. But yeah your comment made it pretty clear ya weren’t American.

Ever watched bringus studios? Man played games on a drive through computer. As the old saying goes all hardware is good hardware if you know what to do.
