Misspelled “kidnapped and forced to fight”.

I was guilty of that very thing once. During my first programming class back in college, I wrote an Asteroids clone as a project. My professor kept sending it back telling me to fix it. I really racked my brain trying to figure out what he was sending back to me (he wouldn’t tell me, I was supposed to find and correct the error). The game ran just fine. Finally a gave up and asked him to tell me the answer of what my code was doing wrong. He showed me that I had one line of code that was basically making a new instance of the entire game for every screen refresh. (I wrote it in Java, so Java was just correcting it for me in real time.)

It’s funny to me to see people mythologize how perfect video games were before they could be remotely updated.

Sure, game developers rely on fix-it-later updates much more than they should today, but games had bugs back then too.

One executive order. It could literally be one sentence long.

With the exception of the spending bill, everything that’s been done by this administration has been done by executive order. The real problem is that the administration ran off all the skilled and knowledgeable workers.

This is, in fact, the opposite of a stable regulatory environment.

Hello, my fellow Episkopol! I’m new here myself too. If you start one up I’ll subscribe!

That… Is some fucked up shit.

Actually you need more than a few.

Remember, when push comes to shove, not a single Republican voted to remove him from office after he tried to kill them.

No that’s not it.

There are just a few left in the GOP that are smart enough to realize that the White “Christian” state that is developing isn’t going to put them on top like they thought it would…

They were so… Innocent.

Like, everyone trusted everyone. Like, sure perfect stranger online, I don’t mind telling you my real name, home address, and age. What’s the harm?

I jump between social networks every few years. My social network path has gone from AOL chat groups, to Yahoo News groups, to Facebook for a few years, to Twitter, to Mastodon, to Reddit.

Last week I decided to test Lemmy out. Best thing I can say about it is that it’s not any worse than all the others. Which is a pretty good compliment really, considering the resources and network advantages that all the others have.

Scouting America is a nearly completely volunteer organization. Their technology is generally about 20 years behind because it’s all pieced together by volunteers that “kinda done something like this for my company once”.

I’m just talking about a human capability standpoint. Maybe over time a person just develops the stamina to do it, but I’m pretty wiped after a solid 9-hour day. Honestly, my productivity collapses after about 5 hours of solid focused work.

I honestly can’t imagine how someone could work 9-9-6.

That blows my mind.

Blame the victim.

I think you should also include the Iraq War. Evangelicals set a lot of their identity in their belief that the War on Terror would be the final Holy War that would bring about the Kingdom of Christ (with them at the top, of course). But instead their holy war turned into an undeniable catastrophe in front of their eyes.

And also Jesus didn’t come back like he was supposed to.

A black man was elected president.

I guess my question is more about what constitutes a “truck suv”. There is no way that SUV built on a truck frame out number SUVs built on car unibody frames by that much.
