The RTS genre is sorely lacking. Even if they don’t make a successor to the competitive multiplayer success of SC2, I would be happy with a good campaign.

I’ve refused a laptop and just use a desktop PC at work.
IT has been to our office recently and collected all the laptops. Everyone has complained that the laptops are working fine and are set up the way they like (Windows 11 capable too). IT says they have a lease contract with HP and the department doesn’t own the laptops, they need to be returned every 5 years for replacement.
I look forward to “old” office IT equipment showing up on eBay. 11th Gen Intel laptops are starting to show up on eBay for £200.

The British Medical Journal has a Christmas issue in which they publish lighthearted, amusing “evidence”. That really sucks with AI.

- Comment on Under-22s in England should get free bus travel to access work and training, MPs say 5 days ago:
Gotta start somewhere. This cutoff might be arbitrary and nonsensical, but its better to let this go through and then argue to expand the scheme. If the argument becomes that “these people can’t have this because everyone doesn’t get this”, then the govt will say that they don’t have money to GI e it to everyone, so no one gets anything.
Perfect being the enemy of the good… Or something.

Zealand died unexpectedly and we had to rush out and replace it quickly before the kids got home from school. Don’t tell them.

Were you expecting it to be smooth like plastic? The top layer is basically a bunch of dead skin cells that keep flaking away from the top layer and building up again from the lower layers.

Honest reply is always best:
“I’m crushed and devasatated and will never recover from this. I shall now retire into obscurity, quiet reflection and resentment.”
- Comment on Feeling insecure about going to a 'girlie pop' concert as a 30 year old man, am i overthinking it? 1 week ago:
You will probably feel “out of place” and there will probably be few people of your demographic… But no one cares. If you enjoy your time with your wife and enjoy the concert, it doesn’t really matter.
I been to a bunch of goth metal concerts as a middle aged man. It’s mostly young people dressed in black goth apparel. I’m there as a serious middle aged guy in a normal T-shirt and jeans. It’s never been a problem. Many times the other concert goers will be quite welcoming to share their music taste with someone.
- Comment on Can magnet damage hard disk? 1 week ago:
I wouldn’t expect it to. I think mythbusters did an episode on this, and it took the strength of one of those car lifting magnet cranes to damage a HDD.
- Comment on How can i casual gamer enter a game online competition? 1 week ago:
Fighting games are great for this. Street Fighter 6 is great (and the biggest). But there are others (Tekken, Mortal Kombat, Guilty Gear, Super Smash Bros, loads more and more upcoming new ones). Fighting games have usually have local clubs/events where you can play casual matches. They’ll also do local tournaments, and there will be bigger regional and national competitions to find. But it’s a great starting experience to go to a local tournament and lose £5 entry fee by losing 2 back to back best of 3’s.
- Comment on How do AI data centers manage to *consume* water, but when I cool my house, my A/C *makes* water? 2 weeks ago:
Even though there is loads and loads of water on the planet, the amount of fresh/drinkable/usable/accessible water is tiny. This water evaporates and rains back down, but this will most likely fall over the ocean, or on land and go I to the ground, or into some other unusable area/form.
Water suitable for human use is a scarce commodity and needs to be preserved. Of all the water lost to the atmosphere from server cooling systems, almost none of it can be recaptured again.

Yet another ill concieved piece of legislation incoming, from a bunch of elderly people who don’t understand anything and are quick to moral panic.
Imagine the recruitment process for this taskforce. A bunch of people rushing to volunteer for this taskforce that requires watching all the source material for research purposes.

Correct, it should be Dirt Rally 2. Highly recommend that for real rally simulation.
- Comment on I just dont seem to ever learn 2 weeks ago:
Others have posted longer term solutions (bigger cup, skill issue, etc). In the immediate situation you have some options:
- Decant to another cup. There’s no way to do this without creating a mess.
- Put a plate under the mug and carry it back to the desk with a couple of paper towels to clean up the mess (of work is urgent)
- Leave it on the counter and sit there for 5 min till the top can be sipped before going back to the desk (if work can wait)

Dirt 2 is a game that I have really enjoyed being shit at.
