  Middle names are kinda like that

  Same, but I was 15 like 15 years later lol

  10$ house vs 100$ house vs 1000$ house

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Woke up this morning pondering THIS question⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  IIRC they just need to hear running water to start making dams

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #3180: Apples⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Any volunteers?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Try it. It works⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wouldnt be surprised if they added ads to Microsoft Teams or Google Meet (or whatever it’s called this month)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A screenshot that is the old evidence of my first ever attempt at a game.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Looks pretty much like my first attempts lol

  I do miss that carefree goofing around. Now I need to design, plan, optimize, etc. I know how to do stuff (mostly), so there less exploration and discovery and more of just work.

  But at least stuff I make now is better hah (or at least I hope so)

  I think it’s rather that those buildings were built 50 years ago and they are still standing today as they were back then (some got thermal insulation and some color) but the inside could have been renovated last year, so it’s new

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam Hardware [new Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and VR headset Steam Frame, coming in 2026]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  With Valve talking about open ecosystems so much, I have glimmer of hope that they’ll move to RISC-V.

  Probably not gonna happen though… At least not yet

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve Announces New Steam Machine, Steam Controller & Steam Frame⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Interesting, thanks for sharing!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve Announces New Steam Machine, Steam Controller & Steam Frame⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I use Dualsense for controller which has a trackpad, but I can’t imagine using it for anything other than the occasional click or two. Do you find them good enough for games? If so, which ones?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yarr⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  How I wish I was in Sherbrooke now…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yarr⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Weyhey and up she rises!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thank me later...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, I don’t want to risk a ban, that’s not worth it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Red Dead Redemption 2 overtakes Mario Kart 8 as the 4th best-selling video game of all time, boasting 79 million sales⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If you had a DRM-free version on a CD and you lost that CD, would you just pirate that game? Not trying to judge or anything (I’ve sailed the seas myself), just genuinely curious

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Public service announcement ⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think I get what you’re trying to say, that non-genital features are more aesthetically pleasing. That genitals aren’t that often featured in art. We usually don’t go “wow those are some pretty genitals, damn”.

  But, it’s also just your brain that tells you that the other parts are pretty. I bet all of them would look weird to an alien. It’s just your brain telling you what to like

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Not everyone has what it takes⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Become as rap gods

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Being a dude sucks⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Men together strong

  “There’s no rule that says a beetle can’t ride a bike!”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Any Austin] Do Red Dead Redemption 2's Power Lines Connect to Anything?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  TL;DW is they connect to a power plant and they have a map-wide grid, but then it turns out that it doesn’t make sense, given the historical setting

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨proportional reaction⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is Rust syntax, but there’s similar syntax in Haskell

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨proportional reaction⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  List comprehension is another thing I don’t like about Python :)

  There’s more of those, but one thing I do like about Python is that I get paid for writing it, so I try not to complain too much

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨proportional reaction⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What I like about using if and else for that is that you’re already using those keywords for branching in other parts of the code.

  Though my least favorite is probably Python’s:

  x = "foo" if y > 5 else "bar"
  

  It just seems backwards to me

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨proportional reaction⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  x = if y > 5 { "foo" } else { "bar" }
  

  This is just superior to anything else

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #3141: Mantle Model⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m with you on that one. I don’t care what the scientists say, there’s no way quantum physics is random, we just don’t know where to look yet. And entanglement? Nah, you made this one up.

  Anyway, I didn’t get into a university, but I’m not bitter about it, no.

  Next week in EU: “We’re proposing a new bill, called ‘SpellControl’, for the safety of our people”

  Desperate times call for desperate measures

  I don’t want my genitals cut off and eaten, don’t know about you

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨CLANKA⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
  Spoilers I guess

  IIRC they were made to look like humans so that later human souls can take over those bodies, to avoid a total human extinction due to some virus. But the clothes? Uhhh idk ¯\(ツ)/¯

  A moment of silence for all those who sacrificed themselves in the name of science
