I tried to get one to write an interface to a simple API, and gave it a link to the documentation. Mostly because it was actually really good documentation for a change. About half a dozen end points.

It did. A few tweaks here and there and it even compiled.

But it was not for the API I gave it. Wouldn’t tell me which API it was for either. I guess neither of us will ever know.

Yeah, Heavensward and Shadowbringers are undoubtedly the best bits. Endwalker isn’t far behind.

But then MMOs aren’t typically played for the story anyway.

The wrong way

They were definitely laughing in the shop when they picked that out.

It doesn’t need to. It’s already unaffordable.

RT has been a plague. The cope going from “4K native 144Hz only bro, potato consoles just can’t keep up” to “just use DLSS to bullshit as many pixels as possible” has been unreal.

You don’t get to be worth 5 trillion dollars by giving out discounts…

No, but nobody is out there making JD Vance their entire personality.

Loads of them if you stay away from multiplayer slop.

Yeah, Black Monday and similar in the Dot Com Bubble, the Sub Prime Mortgage crisis, and COVID.

But these are events that got named. BTC loses a chunk of value it’s just Tuesday.

Have some in your portfolio, sure. But all crypto added together has a similar market cap to Microsoft or Apple, and when BTC dips, all the other crypto follows it.

I’ll likely “lose” some money from my index tracker funds when it happens, but bring it on. I know billionaires will lose a lot more than I will.

I buy dried pasta in different shapes and mix them in the same container.

That’s what you get for siding with Hitler!

Almost as if the currency is in the toilet.

Two economists are walking in a forest when they come across a pile of bear shit.

The first economist says to the other “I’ll pay you $100 to eat that pile of shit.” The second economist takes the $100 and eats the pile of shit.

They continue walking until they come across a second pile of shit. The second economist turns to the first and says “I’ll pay you $100 to eat that pile of shit.” The first economist takes the $100 and eats a pile of shit.

Walking a little more, the first economist looks at the second and says, “You know, I gave you $100 to eat shit, then you gave me back the same $100 to eat shit. I can’t help but feel like we both just ate shit for nothing.”

“That’s not true”, responded the second economist. “We increased the GDP of the forest by $200!”

Anything older than about a year should be on every single service.

It was The Princess Bride that got me back to piracy, and all the new things like Jellyfin which are better than any commercial service.

Wasn’t on any streaming service I had, and I was on three. No thank you, I would not like to rent it for £7.99.

We got bread. We got cheese. We got beans.

What more do you want?

But the players have new haircuts!

They always were. Chrome on mobile has never supported add-ons, and that’s been the main driver of browsing for a while now.

Desktop Chrome still has ad-blockers, but they’re just less effective now, as they can’t phone home for faster updates iirc.

Yeah, same with Switch and current gen console suspend mode. Saves so much time.

Last time I tried this on a Windows PC the games had a 75% of fucking up when you powered it back on.

The underworld on TOTK just burnt me out. There’s so much of it and it’s all so samey and bleak, like if all of Dark Souls was Blighttown.

I took a break of about a year before going back to polish off the story.
