  Having done an IDE Resurrector mod on a slim, I would encourage people to just get a fat.

  Also, what advantage does the PSBBN have over just FMCB and OPL?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yes this year is going to be really good and productive⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh gosh, i did that a couple years ago. We had some people leave, including my manager. I was a lead engineer. I was also leaving, I was promised a position at a 27% increase in salary. But it is a big, international company and their HR was painfully slow at getting me an offer letter. It ended up being 3 weeks from interview to offer. In that time, I just had to sit through several rounds of meetings with the COO, restructuring our group. I was a pivotal part of this plan. Finally, he had the plan finalized. And I got my letter. Handed in my two weeks the same day. No regrets. Love the new place.

  Also, that COO wad not an insignificant factor in people leaving.

  Nah. Once you have a good, strong base it turns into a cozy survival game. Make a fort, decorate it with skull lamps and nice furniture. Go out, kill some mutants and dry their limbs for dinner. Plant some blueberries.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Games you fell out of love with.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The Forest. Man, I had a fantastic time in that game. Solo, and co-op. But after I beat it with a buddy, and we used the end-game artifact to create an excellent trap and base, it basically lost its appeal. The fun is in the struggle.

  Thanks! It definitely elevates a game of Yar’s Revenge.

  I made one a few years ago with some arcade parts. It’s a little bulky, but works. And, hopefully, shouldn’t break.

  I see some water there. Backpack inflatable kayak?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do they turn Federation into a dystopia?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If you pretend Star Trek stopped after First Contact, it’s a lot better. I really don’t understand why they keep trying to make new trek, or who is watching it. Who is it for? It’s too fast, too action-y. Too many camera angles. The writing and acting feels like teen drama. Where is the professionalism, the decorum, the reserved nature of Starfleet? And what little humor there should be, should be dry.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨An oopsie occured⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not going outside in this weather. Especially if I have to put pants on. They should just send a second driver to pull my Arby’s out of the burning wreckage and finish the delivery without me having to tell them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨i mean⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wtf is that controller? Some kind of new-fangled wireless abomination? That’s not original hardware. And, since it is new, why did they put no effort into fixing the joystick? You’re just going to get a floppy dick stick in a few years with it anyway.

  Regular length tongue is fine. It’s just not inserted all the way in the picture.

  It’s going to take a long time to get all the shards out. They’re in there pretty deep.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Your teenager AND your husband⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I used to be dreadfully underweight before my Crohn’s was under control. I tried to squeeze in calories wherever I could. Most of the time, I had meal replacement shakes with my meals. Then, I found meds that worked for me and my eating habits backfired. Every now and then, I may slip back to my old ways by following out a loaf of bread and filling it with a container of Nutella and eating the entire thing in one sitting. Hence why I am now 246lbs.

  Thank you!

  Been there, done that. With half and half instead of milk.

  I’ve been using it on my phone for a few months as a trial run before putting it on my PCs. I like it a lot so far!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anybody know a source for old logos as stickers?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think I might just skip the whole logo thing. The red ball is enough to make me happy. It’s gorgeous.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Turning Gaming Handhelds into Digital Audio Players: An Interview with Riley⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I would love to get an audio player on my old Powkiddy V90. It sucks as a gaming handheld. But it’s small, has a headphone jack, and a physical volume wheel. That would be awesome.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Turning Gaming Handhelds into Digital Audio Players: An Interview with Riley⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I still rocked it yesterday. It’s a great little MP3 player. I take it rustic camping because the battery life is so good.

  Daylight bulbs only belong in the bathroom. That’s the only place I want to see things that bright. Also, if there’s anyplace you want to feel sterile and hospital like, wouldn’t it be the bathroom?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨...is this retro?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I need to re-cap my childhood Turbografx, so my toddler can experience some family Dungeon Explorer. She’s the age I was when my parents bought it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anybody know a source for old logos as stickers?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s not a bad idea. I do know someone with a laser cutter, actually. And I’m sure my wife has those colors in her over 700 bottle collection of polishes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anybody know a source for old logos as stickers?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, I definitely meant M575. I mis-typed it in one spot. Just fat lingered. I guess I should have specified that I also want the solution to be cheap. Preferably sub-$20.

  Antique. I’d say mission style furniture. My father in law used to do restorations. But it really isn’t my scene at all. My ideal house would be all mid-century. But I also like more modern contemporary furniture.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mom with the real questions ⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I have an extending table, too. It’s 4 person, extends to 6. But that puts the legs right between your legs when you sit on the sides.
