D-4got10-01 said @Demolishun Lucky you.
Mine has died recently.
When I plugged it in to the wall socket, a bit of smoke came out.
Once I opened it up I noticed the tops of two capacitors had a convex shape.
On topic, though: yes - I love the current generation.
/s
Assassin's Creed Valhalla had a day 1 patch of roughly 100 GB, IIRC.
There are many more games like this, sadly.,@Demolishun I'm definitely planning on getting it fixed.
Before I got a chance to unlock my old HDD in preparation for upgrading it, the console developed yet another ailment, though.
I may need to find a service that can fix it, but the console is worth it.,@retoor Now that you mention it, quite possibly what happened there.
Either way, that timestamp made me laugh.
'Here's a message from the past for you'.,As a general rule, whenever I am interested in something && the other person is much better at it, than I am.
One such person is my oldest friend, whom I met at my fist job.
We've been friends for roughly 16 years && I've learned a lot from him.,Some people have a problem w/ listening to reason.
...also seem to be lacking some common sense.,'General system stability improvements to enhance the user's experience.',@Demolishun In one of my past projects on Android, when you were in the Main Menu && pressed the Back key, the game would ask whether or not you'd like to close it.
Choosing [Yes] would 'close' it...
...in reality, the game would simply minimize.
A blatant lie, to be sure.
IIRC the idea was to have 'quicker' startup of the game.,Cool stats.,Not sure how, because I visit the site very rarely, but somehow I've recently stumbled upon the '@whatever' channel on YouTube.
https://www.youtube.com/@whatever
They somewhat cover this topic.
...mostly dating-related talks, as far as I've seen - yes, but it is related.
I am not saying that one necessarily has to date to have children, though.
One-night stands can have their consequences.,@retoor You're welcome, have a nice time off away from coding.
Also - yes, having a kid from a one-night stand is fucked up.
Wouldn't want that, personally, therefore I'm not engaging in those.
W/ all the people in the world, however, there are those who are bound to disagree, as is their right.,- 100%'ed Heavy Rain sometime in 2010.
- Detroit Become Human is in my backlog.
- After spending _a lot_ of time playing the Prince Of Persia Warrior Within, I lost the ability to wake up when I'm about to die in my sleep...
...I just rewind the time to moments before my death && continue.,Definitely ! a complete list... would take me too much time to think about it, but:
- Be intelligent.
- Don't do stupid shit. /* Too often. */
- Be self-reliant.
- Don't bother me w/ bullshit.
- Whether it's good or bad news, just be straight w/ me. Never sugarcoat.
- Be truthful.
Bonus:
- Some overlap in interests. /* The more, the better. */,Just leaving a comment to show my appreciation.
All hail king Lothbrok.,Damn, these look amazing.
Props.,Can't remember exactly, as it's been quite a while ago.
It was either any of these, or some combination of:
0. Was frustrated w/ something tech-related.
1. Was looking for new programming-related jokes to fill the void left by devopsreactions.tumblr.com/ , which has been inactive for _some_ time.
2. Was looking for a solution for some problem.
I had been lurking for a month, maybe two before I decided to create an account, as I felt it would be worth it.
Am ! disappointed.,WTF, indeed.,I see something similar in my current company.
At least w/ the leadership.
Personally I don't get it.
If it's needed / beneficial for the job && you don't understand it, don't ask for it to be dumbed down.
_Educate_ yourself!,@Lensflare Very true.
I see the trend of packing things tightly very often in multi-platform games && even in my own project.
'Let's take all of that info && display in on one screen.'
...end result is a lot of very small text that is barely legible.,@lorentz Ditto.
I liked my Firefox w/ the sharp, rectangular tabs more, too.,I'm guessing 'grug' is a reference to this one:
https://m.media-amazon.com/images/...
Went over my head, but I had no problem looking it up.
Sadly, people tent do be too lazy.,@Lensflare Thanks.
Saw that one, too...
1st fucking result on google...
Not sure how I failed to click on it, though.,@Lensflare Depends on the barrel.,Scammer / spammer testing our defenses?,People like mr. smiley make me very nervous.,@Grumm While still probable, less likely.
Yes - fuck this.,@thelevenin By itself - no.
There are certain indicators that tip the scale in the unfavorable direction, though.,Why crawl out, though, when you can:,Fuck.
Definitely !something one wants to hear after such long investment of time.
Hopefully the new project will be interesting / challenging, though.,Some time ago, I was up at night && wanted to check the time.
Saw this thing pictured below.
I found it just as funny as today's date, but that time happens every day, so it's not as grand.,Unfortunately, no.
Back then my PC was pad-less / joystick-less.
Had a C64 && a knockoff Atari 2600 w/ a whopping *1000 games that both had joysticks, though.,\m/,I am reminded of the Internet Of Dongs.
https://youtube.com/watch/...,Vacation throughout the whole December... because why not?
Installing Kubuntu 24.04 as I type, in the spirit of:
'Get to know something new.',Well...
The current situation reminds me of the 1st time when we had a mobile game w/ Leaderboards.
_Of course_ some fucktards decided they need to hack the thing to get the top places.
...had to deal w/ that BS...,@retoor Yup.
I see this BS unraveling.
I've noticed the bots upvoting my comments sometime this morning...
which is like two hours ago.```
