Oh dear fuck i looked at it and they made a covid.gov site that claims that covid originated from lab in Wuhan and was leaked. That fringe conspiracy now being peddled by the white house.

Yep. I’ve known about this feature for a while. I always think my numbers are insane and someone always comes along and one ups me so while I’m near the right end of the bell curve, I’m by no means at the end.

Yeah like… I’d love to go on vacation if I had the money but I think to myself, where would I go? Borders or airports would probably get me put in a detention center for felony gender fraud or whatever, so id have to go somewhere driveable and I’ve pretty much exhausted all those options with previous trips.

Except for the fact they let him choose his method of executions. I mean, being against the death penalty in general is one thing, but the sentence was passed out and the convict chose that method.

Just got the instructions I’m to learn about how to put AI into my programs at work. So thrilled.

Where’s Boudica when you need her.

Fascists on the rise in Australia too sadly. New Zealand is very isolationist and anti immigration.

Yeah I think thr house and senate are good as they are for that reason. It’s the electoral college and gerrymandering districts that are the biggest election problems.

That was Divine Divinity. Larian Yes, not Baldur’s Gate.

Well. The nature of my backlog is like I wait for games to come down in price and by the time I get to them they’re 10 years old haha.

I also have a habit of playing through the entire series before playing the newest one. I’m currently playing Legend of Heroes: A Tear of Vermillion which is the 4th game from Japan in that series but the 2nd to be released in US, SO I’m playing through it even though I don’t like it and will beat the next two games to finally play Trails in the Sky which is the one I really probably should have started with.

I do that with all my games, like Doom Eternal looks cool and so does the upcoming Dark Ages, but I went back and played Doom 1 & 2. 64, then the updated remaster of Doom 1 & 2 when that came out, and now I’m working on Doom 3. I got one more whole Doom game before I even get to Eternal.

Yeha I turn 40 at the end of the year. Over the hill buddies.

I was born i 85. Not much more wisdom I can give I’m afraid. I am a tech early adopter and a coder so I understand crypto it’s just too volatile a market for me to care about. Wish I had invested in Bitcoin when someone asked me if I wanted to in 2012 though. Mostly my driving force for new tech adoption was my gaming habit. I had a colecovision, NES, Genesis, Playstation, Playstation 2, and all the systems from the next gen onward once I had job money.

Fuck, I’m considered an ELDER now?

What’s the opposite of eating the onion? I saw this elsewhere this morning and though haha, that’s obviously satire.

I mean… sure, but when i was a kid if I wanted a free game I had to pirate it but all you need nowadays is to have an epic game store account and you get a free legal game every week. I would have loved that as a kid.

Difference between being a fan of mythology and a fan of the history

Oh, they stopped laughing. Now they’re taking THE US seriously. First time around Trump was a laughing stock but now he’s a threat.

Hey now the mario soundtrack is a banger

Pretty sure it’s the badge

I get what you mean but Martyrs defining factor is that they’re dead.
