My wife didn’t typically game in the traditional sense, but games she’s enjoyed in the past are the older Mario games, the Sims, and project zomboid (which she describes as the Sims but with zombies).

She’s also got like 100 hours in power washing simulator and she’s too scared to try Stardew valley because she knows it’ll consume her life.

Ask Lopez what he thinks

Yeah I’m just gonna tell our group of 55+ year old mechanical engineers to learn Python; that’ll go over really well /s

Ass pennies?

They’re competing against games like Hollow Knight which offer 40+ hours of content for less money.

Armored Core could have been a baller VR game

Same. I want to use it as a huge desktop display at work for those days when I need like 40 things visible at once

The cheapest plane I’d feel comfortable flying my family around in goes for about $100k, and you’d better be able to pay ~$5k a year on average for upkeep.

Meanwhile an instrument six pack is cheap buying it off someone that’s upgrading their cockpit.

Some places are inextricably tied to SimuLink due to how long it was around before any of the alternatives.

• What happens to the ball?

It slowly rolled toward the edge but stopped before falling to the ground. The path was somewhat eccentric because of the texture of the ball.

• What color was the ball?

Yellow

• What gender was the person that pushed the ball?

Male

• What did they look like?

Green and white track suit (why? IDK), mid 60’s Italian, chubby

• What size is the ball? Like a marble, or a baseball, or a basketball, or something else?

It was one of those foam Nerf bullets, so about the size of a shooter marble

• What about the table, what shape was it? What is it made of?

It was that black IKEA table where the four metal legs screw into the corners. About 6ft by 3ft.

• And now the important question: Did you already know, or did you have to choose a color/gender/size, etc. after being asked these questions?

The entire scene sprung into my head at once after reading that someone interacted with the ball

I get that there are solutions to the problem, but there’s no way a team of 10 can port 35 years of win32 dependence and keep the business solvent. Maybe incrementally, over the course of 10-15 years. We’re just now migrating off of .NET 4.8 because we use WCF so much.

Well, we all know what Anakin Skywalker thinks of this game.

Wow, everyone left another platform and were inspired to leave for the same reason, as a group. Now they’re showing extreme similarities in other ways! When will the madness stop??!

It’s an adoption problem. My company only supports windows because all our customers use windows. All our customers use windows because all their vendors only support windows.

Planescape: Torment

Waiting to get a better eyeglass prescription so I can read the tiny text

First thing I did when I heard it was required for win 11.

In a zoo? Probably a binturong or something like that. In the wild- an ocelot.

Tasmanian devils are unique in that they have a cancer that can be transmitted from host to host.

What’s the dew point at those temperatures?

Kernel Space - banishes the target to a plane of existence filled with corn

B Tree - an AOE summon of a permanent swarm of bees in the targeted area until the bees all die or leave naturally

Monad - device that transmutes one set of spell components into another. These can be strung together to form very complex things.

Extended Backus-Naur Form - Allows one to transform into a memetic form to be carried in the mind of another; also extends to your clothing and any carried items.
