Why be an asshole? This isn’t reddit. The number of comments from people in the thread who have experienced the exact same thing should clue you in that maybe you’re the insane one? This is a space for venting, so you are welcome to vent as long as you allow others the space to vent about their shit, too.
No, it’s better to have awareness of both. What needs to be done, how long it takes, and what dependencies exist. I feel like taking a nap, but I have work and house chores. So I’ll take care of some small things that aren’t too taxing while I drink coffee and regain some energy.
Failure? Pretty sure the oligarchy is getting exactly what they want.
Oh I get it completely, and I was banging my head against the wall looking for something that worked. Ultimately, some clean cable management and a few of those rubber cord grips were so much more functional than anything else I tried.
Also remember that you’ll need to automate those branching switches, and each one can add a bit of lag if they are digital.
As someone who briefly lived a similar dream, I wish someone had pointed out to me that you’re still going to have to get your old bones up to get the wired controllers for those older consoles. I’d just keep the old school composite switch accessible so you can plug in whatever you want to play while you’re grabbing the controllers and plugging in the cartridge. Then you just need an HDMI switcher, which could also be your surroud sound system (if you’re spending money anyway…)
I wonder what sort of lag that would add. Digital converters always seem to make Mario jump slower.
I mean, maybe it’s technically “darker” the literal sense, but any unfinished concrete is going to scatter light differently than glossy blue paint. And I don’t have anything against cleaning and maintaining the pool. It’s normal maintenance that has to happen every so often.
But if this doesn’t look tacky as shit and make it harder to see the reflection, I’ll eat a hat.
A reflecting pool needs to be dark on the bottom. If it’s bright blue, too much light bounces off the bottom and overwhelms the reflection.
Literally nothing Trump does isn’t fucking stupid and wasteful.
There’s literally no reason to use these ever.
Feinstein is a dipshit and I don’t know if she wa being stupid or dishonest, but I take a greater issue that a Senator shouldn’t be expected to believe a SCOTUS nominee is telling the truth when they answer a direct question under oath.
You forgot Barrett and Gorsuch committing perjury, and Thomas accepting bribes from petitioners of the court, not to mention his sexual assault allegations.
Worst part of all of this is that, IF they sincerely believed that Trump won in 2020, or that Trump could legally run for a third term, then they would answer honestly and make the legal argument supporting their position. They were asked the question under oath and they refused to answer because they know that they do not have a legitimate legal defense for their partisan positions, and they will rule in favor of Trump regardless of the law.
4 in 10 are fucking dipshits.

My son also has no respect for me whatsoever. He doesn’t like me, care about me, and finds me annoying. He straight up said, ‘I couldn’t give a fuck less about you or your opinion. The fact that you think I should care proves how utterly stupid you are.’ He doesn’t consider his mother’s brother or cousin his ‘family’ either, and he truly doesn’t give one fuck about what I feel about this decision.
I think the best course of action is to put your foot down and tell him he’s stupid and crazy for wanting to name himself after a character he likes. Surely belittling him and trying to control his life will earn his respect.
Seriously, though, what the fuck are you thinking? Your kid is rebelling against you and your family. He wants an identity that he can be proud of, and for whatever reason he isn’t proud of your family name. You don’t tell us why, but your reaction to it is a strong indicator of how you treat your kid.
Have you tried being supportive? Have you tried loving your child regardless of whether he makes decisions you disagree with? Have you tried listening to his feelings and understanding his motivations without judgement? Have you live your life as an example for how to be a good person and make good decisions? In other words, be a parent. It’s never too late to change.
How else do you think they stay on?
Among Greeks, if you say Alexandros (or Philip for that matter) then people will know who you are talking about. But basically, those names are still in use. Caesar became the word for leaders rather than a name, and it’s relatively rare as a first name.
Charlemagne is actually Charles le magne which means Charles the Great. If you called him “King Charles” you’d need to be much more specific.
I can’t speak for Attila, because I don’t know if the name is popular in any particular cultures. Certainly in the USA, the Hun king is the most famous Attila.
Slim Shady is an interesting example, because its’s basically branding for Marshall Mathers aka Eminem. One of his first widespread hits was a song essentially saying that he’s the only real Slim Shady, and anyone else using that nickname is a copycat poser.
A government that will kidnap, mutilate, torture, and kill innocent civillians for any reason will kidnap, mutilate, torture, and kill innocent civillians for any reason.
As was intended. Fascists see the brain drain as a victory, because stupid masses are easier to control.
Not that I’m criticizing the educators who leave. They are being forced out, and it’s entirely reasonable to abandon Texas.
Oh no, an economic parasite has been siphoning unearned value from society for years.
