Sounds pretty fucking badass if you ask me, Doctor.
or maybe then go for “Who” or “Hu” if you like to make friends with nerds
- Comment on I'd like to change my last name and want suggestions 3 days ago:
Power
or maybe Danger, although that’s better as a middle name
- Comment on Is it just me or does it seem Google is either AI filled or becoming obsolete? Is there an up and comer that can be what Google used to be? Or are we stuck oogling stuff forever? 5 days ago:
I don’t know for sure but I suspect internally the incompetent middle management layer are pushing AI usage as a metric
Yeah this is reportedly happening at all the big tech corporations.
The CEOs, SVPs, VPs, etc. are bullshitting each other that AI is multiplying productivity SO MUCH, because that’s what everyone else is saying too. But each of them isn’t actually seeing that happen in their company/org, so they figure that’s because their underlings simply aren’t using AI enough, and the only way to fix the productivity expectation gap is to enforce more AI usage

- Comment on is it a stupid idea to become a Physician Assistant if you're a Registered Nurse, tired of it and 46 years old? 1 month ago:
Sounds like a chance to become happier. That’s a good idea. 46 isn’t old, and definitely not “too old” to make a change

I have to disagree with you on the Vampire Survivors chest, the music that plays during the animation is an absolute banger
- Comment on Pet Peeves with Games? 4 months ago:
You can create/use multiple users on the Switch itself, are the saves then not separate?
- Comment on What game is a guilty pleasure of yours? 5 months ago:
I’d downvote this comment because it’s not a guilty pleasure at all, but I’ll upvote it instead because Link’s Awakening is a beautiful game, and I had it as a kid too :)

My hypothesis is that the first Final Fantasy you play will forever be your favorite

In Japan, heart surgeon. Number one. Steady hand. One day, yakuza boss need new heart. I do operation. But, mistake! Yakuza boss die. Yakuza very mad. I hide in fishing boat, come to America. No English, no food, no money. Darryl give me job. Now I have house, American car, and new woman. Darryl save life. My big secret: I kill yakuza boss on purpose. I good surgeon. The best!
- Comment on What are some good examples of "Where the fuck do you go" kind of games? 1 year ago:
I got stuck in the first dungeon, because one room required pushing two blocks together but I didn’t even think any of these blocks could be pushed at all!
Bought the official guide book a bit later

Getting 99 salary increases does feel unrealistic though
- Comment on What's the greatest joy you have gotten from a video game? 1 year ago:
BotW: stepping out of the cave in the begining, seeing that vast world in front of Link waiting to be explored
The Switch was the first console I had since the PS2, and the PC “gaming” I did in the meantime was mostly retro games on emulators or a bit of Stardew Valley, so the contrast to that was HUGE.
Another one was re-playing Ragnarok Online months after quitting (and giving away all equipment and deleting all characters) with a friend. We were barely second job class (he was Hunter, I was Priest) and rudimentarily equipped enough to beat Abyss Knights, so we went leveling in the area where those sometimes spawn. AND ONE OF THEM DROPPED A CARD! Cards are extremely rare (allegedly 0.01% drop chance) and monster-specific, and the Abyss Knight card is extremely valuable. So from one second to the next, we practically went from piss poor to rich AF.
Another extremely lucky moment was in Diablo 2: a regular cow in the Cow Level dropped a (perfect!) Windforce, at the time one of the best unique items in the game. I don’t remember exactly but IIRC from some online calculator the chances for this drop were under one in a million (I wasn’t even wearing anything with lots of MF%)
