It’s slowly starting to become a lost art though, there’s definitely more and more automatics around, starting with all electric cars.

People overestimate how much momentum you’d get when jumping off something like, you’d be going straight down pretty quick.

I’m gonna assume it’s from the specific scenario described. After all, who would go on the internet and tell lies?
- Comment on And they mocked me for my WoW subscription 😗 2 weeks ago:
Yeah but that’s where the time sink aspect comes in though, truthfully even though I also played at competitive levels back in the days (up to world top 50ish kills) and of course I miss the competitive aspect, as well as the social one that came from the guilds etc, the allure of modern wow was that I did have all these options to experience content and catch up without having to commit to a schedule. And TBH it did work pretty well last time I tried like a year ago, lots to do solo, lots of catch up mechanics, lots of ways to join random groups etc. But yeah it doesn’t feel the same as playing with a committed group and that’s probably what I actually miss from the game.

Is it? Last time I tried I was having somewhat good fun until I got the stupidest mythic dungeon group that bullied the fuck out of me as healer and stopped again shortly after that. I liked that there was just so much to do but I’m still not sure I can really enjoy the game the same way I used to now my life is so different and don’t have as much time to give to it.

BTW you can get Garmin to USB-C little adapters, they come in quite handy.

I fucking love camping but had to glamp it up for it to pass the WAF… We have a blast when we do it but it’s only a couple times a year.

Same as you’d react to them coming in pointing a camera I guess. Campus is a private property right so it’s up to the admin…

With a nice rug, some candles and some decorations you can make it work.

- Comment on Logitech’s new light-powered keyboard doesn’t even need the sun 5 weeks ago:
I literally just heard of it today because I came across a video of Adam savage interviewing the creator. Apparently he reinvented pretty much everything in it and assembles it all by hand or something.

Do you mean actual mcd branded ones? We can find normal chicken nuggets, not mcd (but the standard ones are just as good sometimes better). In NL.
- Comment on whats your dumb purchases? 5 weeks ago:
I mean if you’re into mechs I can see how that could come in handy for spares if anything, or just fucking around. Depends on the price though if you’re paying anywhere close to normal price then it’s probably not worth it, if it’s like 10% of the price then sure why not.

Didn’t someone make like an entire story from all of these at one point? I remember it being a bit of a stretch but still funny.

Obligatory PSA not to give bread to ducks (or birds), use compatible seeds and grains instead if you enjoy doing that.
- Comment on Political discourse 5 weeks ago:
All I’m saying is everything is further to the right in the US. These things you listed aren’t even partisan issues here, they’re just normal things.
- Comment on Political discourse 5 weeks ago:
I don’t think any of this happened last time the democrats were in charge? Or any other time before that. Seen from Europe, democrats are definitely right of center, just less so than republicans.

- Comment on How many hands long do they get? 1 month ago:
Except they only know the amounts/frame of references for the specific things they’re used to, so it’s not like they can do the conversion any better than the rest of us. Canadians have a similar (though different) system as well.

- Comment on FOSS App to Edit videos ? 1 month ago:
Great comment all around albeit with maybe a bit outdated yet personal experience.
I would say, don’t underestimate blender, it has a lot of parallel progress going on and while I never used it for video editing, I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s pretty powerful in that area.
I’m personally a resolve user and I think it doesn’t have anything to envy from avid or premiere at this stage (you admit yourself it was 8 years since you tried it). It’s incredibly powerful and the free version should get you by for most projects though you might run into a few things where you wish you had the studio version.
My personal experience when I was shopping around before settling on resolve (3/4 years ago) was that all the other FOSS options I tried were mid at best.

The trick is to just keep taking more crack continuously, then everything is better all the time.
