I once had a hand that was 5 E’s and 2 H’s. On the second round. Not fun

How long does that last?

No no, it’s totally meritocracy, see, his son worked real hard for that!

Well, Venezuela has fuckloads of oil that isn’t going to the USA, so…

You might want to check out Chorus, it’s on sale super cheap on GOG right now. It’s an action game with some levels on foot and others in space.

An honorable mention is Star Wars Battlefront 2 (classic) - maybe not exactly what you want, but it has space combat where most of the action is with ship dogfights, where you can also attack the opposing capital ship and disable its core systems to win the match. The whole single player game ensures you’ll get one hell of a power fantasy as the ace/hero, even on harder difficulties.

Unless they did a proper rework of space combat, it’ll get old fast, just like ground combat. I also remember you could pile up dozens of “Kill space pirate Whoever” from several systems, travel super far away so that you could reset the quests, reset said quests, then manage to complete ALL of them by killing only one target

It’s a game that, as you build up money, it becomes less about flying around and more about managing fleets and your little economic empire. Still, one of the few that actually let you pilot fighters AND huge stuff like the carriers

I think sewing machines would count? They certainly got a hell lot more “portable”, but the basic design hasn’t changed much since the 1880s. Those things are little mechanical marvels

It was patented? Fucking hell, today I learned

Not as l33t as All Yor Base

The client asked for this last Wednesweek!

Hey, at least the children aren’t seeing any titties or cocks!

It’s not like QA would’ve caught these problems before it went to production anyway

Add more friction between you and the social media. On a computer, this can be done by adding lines to your /etc/hosts, or C:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc/hosts files, completely blocking off specific sites. On a phone, add stupid long passwords to open certain apps, don’t accept biometrics, leave the password written down on a paper and hide it - resist the urge to save the password somewhere for easy copypaste or to uninstall the app that allows the password locking.

Other than that, leave your phone at home and try walking around the nearest park or any spot that has more than 10 trees, at least once a week. Touch grass, trees, flowers, leaves, sit down and just watch.

Another important thing to keep in mind while outside: people will forget your existence in 5-10 seconds

More importantly, it doesn’t bundle fucking chrome

Shit, my GPU is about to melt!

Should be “power phrase” instead of power word, so it could get super fancy

Now that’s interesting

“One reporter was killed by the government – unfortunate, but not a fucking hill that I’m gonna die on,” Jim Jefferies said on Theo Von’s podcast in August, arguing it is for the greater good that “freedom-of-speech machines” such as himself bestow their “edgy” material on the kingdom and its subjects. (Since making the comments, Jefferies has since disappeared from the festival’s lineup; his representatives did not respond to inquiries about this.)

lol

How high is that number? According to Dillon, pretty high: in the same podcast that got him fired, he said the organizers offered him $375,000 and claimed that some comedians were offered millions. Gillis did not reveal how much the organizers offered him, but he did say that when he initially refused, they “doubled the bag”. Tough news for Dillon, who elsewhere claimed he asked for $500,000 but had to settle for less.

[Nimesh Patel] suggested that he could make up for the loss by performing “40 shows … here in the perfectly clean, moral, above-everyone-else United States of America.”

Would be funny if any of these comedians accepted but did a shit job on purpose to get booed off stage, then just explained that stunt as “giving their money’s worth”

nullschool. By default, it shows air currents at surface level. You can also see some chemical levels on the atmosphere, like carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide; see ocean currents and waves, as well as temperature.
