  In most (maybe all) states, you do get paid by the state, but it is something hilariously low. In my state it is $20 a day I believe, which is not much above the minimum hourly wage for my area.

  Good point

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is AOC a big deal? She just speaks common sense and calls out absurdity. Have we really gone that far off the rails where we don't do it ourselves?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  This was a huge cause of confusion years ago when the media started using “AOC” to refer to her. I was like, damn, their monitors used to be cheap crap, why are they so popular now?

  That’s exactly it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your favourite PSP games?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Figured as much, thanks. My PSP is a release model and is iffy. I’ll probably try and track down an iso file some day since I don’t think there is a viable way to play the PSP physical media any other way.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your favourite PSP games?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s an enhanced port of a PS2 game. Vanillaware made a few weird games like that, they were really well animated too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your favourite PSP games?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  CC was such a good game. There is a PS4/5 remaster of the game now and its excellent as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your favourite PSP games?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The port of Disgaea 2 is also excellent and has added content like D1 did.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your favourite PSP games?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I didn’t realize they ported Everyday Shooter to the PSP. I loved that game on the PS3. They released a PC port, but it sucks because you can’t aim as well for some reason.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your favourite PSP games?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I never had issues with SNES game performance. I bet some emulators did better than others, or maybe some games used features that didn’t emulate efficiently like mode 7 graphics or star fox with its 3d chip.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your favourite PSP games?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Technically, the PSP version is called Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness as it has added content and a few QoL changes. Agreed on it being great though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your favourite PSP games?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Did they ever manage to port Jeanne D’Arc to any other platforms? It would be a shame if they didn’t it was an excellent game.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your favourite PSP games?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Awesome, I was also going to say Z.H.P. They did end up making a PC port finally which is on Steam which is pretty solid.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Finally HR does something right⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There were some positive aspects of eating at my desk for sure. Not needing to talk to interact with the large amount of in the cafeteria as well as not losing my parking spot if I left to lunch in the middle of the day were some reasons.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it even possible to drop 20 lbs in a month? Are there any diets for people who want to go to the extreme? Kind of like celebs do for roles?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You can drop 20 pounds on a month, but you probably shouldn’t unless your overall size and weight make 20 pounds not as significant as it would be to the average human.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Finally HR does something right⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I used to do the eat at my desk thing too because I was so overloaded with tasks and I would just eat for 10 min and keep working. It took me far too long to realize I had been allowing myself to be taken advantage of, especially given that my salary was far lower than the market rate. Don’t be past me… take your lunch, it’s yours!

  I loved Dungeons of Dredmor, it’s crazy to se an update for it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨3D-Printed Houses Are Already Failing⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That sucks, I had hoped this would work better as it seemed very efficient/quick. I don’t think this is damning of all pre fab homes though, as they are really common especially in Europe.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why in America is .08 the legal limit for drunk driving? How come it's not an even 0.10? Who decided at what level being drunk starts? Then 4 beers of 12oz's is 0.08 why is it that small?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If 4 beers produces 0.08% (I have no idea if this is accurate), then it should probably be lowered by at least half as driving after 4 beers seems like a quite a bad idea.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why in America is .08 the legal limit for drunk driving? How come it's not an even 0.10? Who decided at what level being drunk starts? Then 4 beers of 12oz's is 0.08 why is it that small?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I get your intent, but it should definitely not be 0% as there are various reasons that it could be slightly more than 0 (some food recipes have tiny amount of alcohol, some medicines have small amount of alcohol, even natural digestive functions can produce small amounts). I’d be fine with it being lowered even more though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨More thermal paste = more heat dissipation, right?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Back in the very early 2000s a friend on mine that I thought was pretty technical heard me talking about thermal paste and he had never used any. After telling him about the benefits he was excited to get some and use it on his new PC he was building. He came in the next day sad, said it had fried and he thinks it was the paste. I asked how much he put on and his response was “umm, like icing on a cake”. in my head it was even worse the the posted image.

  That’s another great one, where great == leaving you with a persistent sense of dread after viewing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨national anthem⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I can totally see that. The episode “White Bear” from the second season was one I should not have watched in such a state. I was quite shaken afterwards, that one might be worse than “Fifteen Million Merits”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Boop Boop bee bee boop boop⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  He does have a certain “should have been dead decades ago” look to him.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨national anthem⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly, the second episode "Fifteen Million Merits was the most soul crushing thing I had ever watched, the first episode paled in comparison. Then again, I’m not a pig so clearly Peppa would be a little more traumatized.

  Standard Bomb Pops didn’t have gum inside, though some varieties probably did. The Bomb Pops is constantly making little variations on their popsicles, probably too many IMO.

  For a man I always believed to be extremely intelligent, that was a moronic thing to say at the time and sounds even more stupid now. I am sure the large amount of money he received for that deal made him did a lot of encouraging him to be optimistic. I mean I get it, people that pay me millions of dollars would likely seem pretty good to me in the moment, but come the fuck on.
