We’re reaching levels of 70s that are, frankly, irresponsible.

Also during a war, things almost certainly were better before the war. War is kinda known for being awful.

- Comment on Always wear protection, folks 6 months ago:
I work is a loud environment, and didn’t take it as seriously as I should’ve, and just wore regular earbuds because I wanted to be able to listen to music over the noise of the machinery. I don’t have it as bad as either of those cases you mentioned, but definitely noticed that I couldn’t hear as well by my mid 20s, and it takes very little background noise to prevent me from being able to following a conversation.
Now I am pretty good about wearing earplugs, and have bone conduction headphones that I can use with them, and the sound comes through clear even at low volume with the ear pro in. I would highly recommend them if that is part of anyones hangup around wearing ear pro.
- Comment on Microsoft spent two years and $1B developing the Kin mobile phone line, which failed after just 48 days in 2010(May 14-June 30) due to poor sales. They blamed Verizon for not promoting it enough 7 months ago:

And it isn’t really presented as such. Its just a microcosm of how being poor is really expensive, while there are tons of ways to save money while wealthy. That doesn’t end up being the cause of wealth inequality but it does give a certain inertia to those class positions.

Its pretty reasonable that if you see a thing that is disguising itself as spam, and you don’t know that it is only disguising itself as spam. To one, not click the link, but also to downvote or report and move on.
The person making the joke probably knows that it is probably going to have a high miss rate, which doesn’t mean they shouldn’t do it.

- Comment on Favourite Metroid game? 1 year ago:
I’ve seen some mentions of AM2R, which I love, but also wanna shout out the romhack Super Metroid Redesign.
Its hard for me to pick an absolute favorite, but Fusion probably gets it today from me.

- Comment on What do You think about level scaling in cRPGs? 1 year ago:
I think the place they are getting the bit about patience from is specifically dragon quest. Where the devs intentionally positioned it in opposition to other games of the time that required you to get good so to speak.
I read an interview a few years ago, I think with Yuji Horii about the design in dragon quest being set up specifically so that by sinking time in you would eventually overpower everything and progress, even if you never improved at the game mechanics. I couldn’t easily find it again when I looked to link it but maybe I will be able to later today.

You could potentially run into this or something very similar in cad when your sketches aren’t fully defined yet. I’ve definitely ran into models that are slightly off square because someone missed a constraint much earlier in the timeline.

Its intended to focus on a specific skill, the other skill can be valid and not be the point of the lesson.

Isis isn’t gone, they aren’t holding any territory right now and are greatly diminished, but they took credit for an attack in Russia this year even.
