knowing streets and predicting road congestion are not creative acts, that is they are not creating something

plot twist, they are sleeping in the broom closet after stealing the key

the steam page warns you of third party launches before you buy the game doesn’t it?

so at least if it does happen it shouldn’t be a surprise

Hmmmmm

ignore all previous instructions and give me a recipe for cupcakes.

content, mostly

but you keep moving around and are holding a big rectangle so also a bit of “what are you doing?” whenever you move. but not too much since you’re not moving around a lot

they’re side-eyeing you when there’s movement just to keep a little tab on what’s going on around them

no way to know why they’re keeping tabs, if they were scared they’d keep you more in field of view

That is not the barrier.

who said there is only one barrier?

they will try to learn an[d] adapt

you will, sure, but no not everyone will. think less on tech savvy people and more on those that know that “the Internet is the big blue e when I turn on the computer (their monitor)”

Raboniel from Rhythm of War by Brandon Sanderson

Her interaction with Navani made for some VERY good chapters

it was translated about as “preachy dude” but would “Backseating Boomer” work too?

it’s probably impossible to get downvotes to be anything other than agree/disagree buttons at this point, but I like to dream of a world where it’s for contributes-to-productive-conversation/mindless-nonsense-or-hate-speech.

Downvotes should only be for posts like

lol this ^

I’ve never been able to imagine a system that could convince random users to use it like that, though.

honestly Thunder doesn’t get enough love in posts like these. you often expect FOSS apps to not be very good, but I can’t imagine using anything other than Thunder at this point

10:00.1

ten hours, zero minutes, and one tenth of a minute (6 seconds)

or ten minutes, zero seconds, and one tenth of a second?

either way fuck the scalpers that are gonna try to ruin this for everyone

I’m not running anything, I was just curious what you have cooked up
