Honestly Google Drive works great as free storage (Though for large storage there’s no guarantee they won’t accidentally delete it, it’s happened before).
And Google Suite is good enough if you can’t be bothered to get Microsoft Office. Though they’re forcing AI into it and have some weird quirks like being unable to copypaste external text with rightclick.
Had a weird compulsion when seeing an ad for a dress, went into denial and redirected my focus to something else on the ad for my feelings (a stupid looking hoodie).
When analyzing these feelings I soothed myself by thinking “maybe I could just dress up mannequins as decoration or something”.
Most egg moment of my life. It’s like my brain knew and purposely avoided it.
Skop
I love the idea of Weird Al personally telling strangers to eat rocks and glue.
“But council I was merely casting the humble and fun Balloon Animal spell ~targeting penis~”

There was a brief window after ChatGPT when I had a twinkle in my eye and thought “this is an impressive start, how will they improve it? How will they make it more efficient?”.
That went away when all the tech companies in unison slurred out “make it bigga!” then pushed to production.
Some of the high concept type of spells you can make eventually is insane. You truly can play with forbidden magic except it’s sawblades and nukes.
Noita just has that genuine sense of awe and exploration I’ve only experienced in OuterWilds (Also a really good game, progression is story and information based, do not spoil).

I’ll be playing work 🥲
Besides that I’m currently playing Paper Mario for the first time (I don’t know if remakes count on this sub).
Also Noita, if you like exploration and tinkering, and can find humor in dying a lot to physics or yourself, then I highly recommend. You could sink endless hours into it; beating the main portion of the game is jokingly referred to as the “tutorial”.
When programmers with ADHD/Autism get interrupted from a fixation (like a video), suppressing that interruption, even if unproductive or unimportant, becomes their new fixation.
I’ve been guilty of this many times, for better or worse.
Programmer solution:
Each episode is defined by the earliest point they travel to, excluding that episode’s “present”.
Jam all edge cases at Epoch (1970) or the present if you prefer (2024). Sort these by order of release.
Push to production.
For normal people, to be late to something.
For this guy, the R slur against those with learning disorders.
I imagine it’s because the attributes that IQ measure could be the same as we use to measure success.
Effectively if your test is based on the skills needed for STEM, and the STEM fields have jobs with high pay and respect, then you’re likely to be considered “successful”. But the same person could be awful at communication, politics, the arts, and just be ignorant at large to how the world works. They may even be hyper specialized to their field but lack the flexibility in their intelligence to understand other STEM fields (I hear physicists are guilty of this).
Another, simpler answer, could just be that already wealthy people have better access to stable education, so they were already successful in many ways.

God you don’t realize how many tiny things you need to buy until you don’t have them.
You’d expect to find something like a ruler, some tape, a pen, sticky notes, ect. but realize you gotta buy them first instead of just searching your clutter drawers.
Could go the Black Panther route, just have someone be armed and tell them to leave without actually hurting them. They’re cowards and won’t go to places they feel threatened.
The infrastructure would be things like fiber cable wired to each house.
But in this scenario, the ISPs would be manning the servers that your connection is routed through. So they’d still have massive influence on the speed and data.
If the government owned the servers, they could block and track down anything against state interest.
Not saying they can’t do that anyways, but at least the third party makes the process more difficult, less seamless, and gives the chance of new competitors.
So they’re ending support but will use the remaining users like test guinea pigs.
Great…
Oh it gets worse with Shadiversity. Huge AI art guy, his brother’s an actual artist too so it’s hard seeing Shad brag to him. Very “anti-woke” and paints his conservative Mormon beliefs on everything.
The worst unforgivable part is the end of his book has impregnated rape victims step up to defend the rapist protagonist because he “gave them” a child, while the ones that didn’t get pregnant were jealous.
He loves to bring up that the book is supposed to explore this immoral character. But this isn’t the protagonist’s viewpoint this is just how Shad thinks the world works. This is how Shad believes rape victims think.
Very sad to see, I followed him for swords and castles but Jesus Christ.
