Born to go field study and research nature, forced to be a cog for increasing shareholder value

I used to get a daily dose of tea from aita and tifu

It’s like reading a drama but for some random person’s life somewhere on the planet

I mean debtor prisons are basically just involuntary prison labor, which the US already has. Not really a leap, considering you can get arrested for legitimately anything.

Look at youtube for guides on customizing your mouse

You’d prob want to sand the mouse to let the primer adhere better, and go with small coats.

A outer protective coat after would prob work wonders since your finger oils will mess up raw paint fast

Disassembly is actually really easy for mouses so you can spray paint pieces individually, or at least just the shell

Seems to math to me? 2002 to 2008 is 6 years, 2008 to 2020 is 12 years, 2020 to 2025 is 5 years

Joystick controls sound fun for like bumper cars

Were you really good at the bookfair games where you win a prize for guessing how many marbles are in a jar

Shoes are pretty easy to guesstimate for US sizes if you have average feet (width being the biggest reason this fails). Men size is basically women size plus 1.5. This doesn’t work if you have a large foot size though, since women’s dont go up to the same max as men’s

Clothes are 100% a pain. Especially online shopping

I just watched a video about a what if situation of this exact same spongebob scene last night lol

Hmm might just be an unlucky design. Either that or the fan motor is squeaking from lack of lubricant.

You should check the thermal pads/paste

My gpu used to overheat and turn my pc off until I opened it and realized the paste was legit hardened clay

Gave it a cleaning and replaced all the paste and pads and it works pretty nice now

Cannot relate my work place is completely shut off and I feel like a cave gremlin

Relatable

I’m no longer in the same mental state as I was a couple years back (used to cut) but life is not that good right now still. Maybe it’s because most of my friends are back home while I’m out of state for work. Could also be the absolute cinema happening all around. I kinda just fill time up with work and gym, then turn my brain off during the weekends.

I don’t really have advice cause idk what I’m doing either, but hopefully I offered some solace. Best of luck

Shrimp are cool

Depth of field and chromatic aberration are pretty cool if done right.

Depth of field is a really important framing tool for photography and film. The same applies to games in that sense. If you have cinematics/cutscenes in your games, they prob utilize depth of field in some sense. Action and dialogue scenes usually emphasize the characters, in which a narrow depth of field can be used to put focus towards just the characters. Meanwhile things like discovering a new region puts emphasis on the landscape, meaning they can use a large depth of field (no background blur essentially)

Chromatic aberration is cool if done right. It makes a little bit of an out of place feel to things, which makes sense in certain games and not so much in others. Signalis and dredge are a few games which chromatic aberration adds to the artstyle imo. Though obviously if it hurts your eyes then it still plays just as fine without it on.

I’m decently sure profanity became known as such because of either religious reasons or class division (along the lines of peasants vs nobles from early/medieval europe) and it just became commonplace.

I would say profanity nowadays though is a lot less taboo. It’s been normalized in culture (hip hop, city culture, punk subculture) and a lot of people are less religious nowadays.

Does anyone else’s search on lemmy actually work as expected? I feel like it never finds anything really relevant. I can search for audio interfaces for example and all the first results are about software in general and not actually the hardware component.

Most of the US is a culture pot so the food I like is not really local.

The only things I can think of as a state famous thing is that San Francisco, California is known for sourdough, and Seattle, Washington is kinda known for the Seattle (Hot) Dog.

Oh hey that sounds like me

I checked one doctor in Jan. May is the earliest date for an evaluation, no physical or anything

I called another and they told the earliest is november

What a great system we have

Yea once w10 reaches eol I’m gone. If my games decide to fix linux by then, then all is well. If not, oh well.
