When was the last time you had an alert for anything that either solved a problem, lowered your stress, or improved your life in any way?

What does this have to do with PC gaming?

If you have the lid closed, you’re looking at 3 to 15 watts to have a laptop running in the background doing some basic server shit.

Maybe a little more under high load, but those are going to be intermittent and not constant.

I’m just saying it’s not that much more electricity usage, and the recycling more than offsets the CO2.

It is the only song of theirs that I will not immediately change the station if it comes on.

One day, out to a cliff That overlooks the water I jumped in to save a girl It was somebody’s daughter And now the ring that’s on my hand It was given to me by her And to this day we all sit around And dream of ways to get higher

In the original Civil War, the Confederacy had the land advantage and a surplus of people willing to fight.

The North had just as many people willing to fight, but also money.

And because they had money, they had better weaponry, better cavalry, and healthier, happier soldiers.

Further, there were many people in the South who did not agree with the Civil War and who supported the North’s conquest of the South.

The South was in a very bad situation financially and organizationally to fight a civil war, whereas Cascadia, being Washington, California, and Oregon would have quite a bit in its favor, Especially if we did something outlandish like ask the Chinese for help in exchange for a trade agreement.

Having a new country pop up between America and the far west would be disastrous for America’s financial stability.

I am not saying that we should start a civil war or that we should actually secede from the union. I am just saying that this would not resemble the civil war at all, and barring an early blitzkrieg or a nuclear assault, they could win.

I mean, yes, or we could annex the tip of Idaho and exile everybody that voted for Trump Or that does not swear allegiance to the new Republic of Cascadia.

Part of me would rather have Washington, Oregon, and California become the new Republic of Cascadia.

The other part of me would be happy to become a Canadian.

Either way works for me. Somebody just roll out the bill and I’ll sign.

I’m sorry, like, I would choose 5 minutes in Warhammer 40K versus the Nazi death camps.

My overweight native ass would be tortured to death over the period of several months, whereas five minutes in Warhammer 40k, like maybe I catch a stray bullet, maybe I get gang raped by orcs, but more than likely I survive, and I’m relatively unharmed.

In our defense, it is VERY post-apocalyptic, like 400 years or so depending on where you tag in.

It’s not like the bombs dropped yesterday and all of a sudden they have holodecks and microwaves that make food out of raw materials and transporters and warp drives.

If you consider our technology in 1625 versus today, Having that kind of tech in 2425 seems perfectly reasonable.

Yep, I quit using Firefox.

You fuck with me? I drop you like a bad habit. That’s just a very simple standing rule that I have abided by for a very long time.

And it’s frustrating, but it works and I’ll keep dropping every single fucking company that wants to fuck with me for the rest of time.

I would rather Firefox come out and be like, look, we need you to give us two dollars a year to use our fucking browser than for them to try to sneakily, secretly extract money from the background from my web searches.

That goes double for when this money extraction process does not actually improve the product but makes it measurably worse.

Fair warning, if you cum first she will use her psychic powers to remove your genitals.

I ficking love imagemagick.

Magick mogrify -format PNG *.HEIC

Replace HEIC with whatever file extension you need to convert.

Add -q 6 or -quality 90 to reduce the file sizes.

Use -format PDF to bulk convert images to pdfs.

because of the background and helmet, and the elfs clothing.

The very occasional cat, lots of birds like hummingbirds and owls, rabbits, deer, and dogs.

The weird thing is is I live very close to the city in a very normal suburb, but there’s a small forest in my backyard and they just are all there, and it’s kind of cool.

If I ever meet the asshole that invented the mouse-off function for webpages so that when you go to close a tab, a pop-up jumps up so that the website owner can scream, “wait, no, please subscribe, give us your email, send us money, something holy fucking shit, dear god ah!” at you I swear I will break their fucking fingers and punch them in the dick.

My house is a reddish brown with a green metal roof. My cars are black, red, and yellow, and I do everything I can to make sure that I am surrounded by at least some kind of light and color at all times.

If I was dating a girl and I found out that she was a sad beige mom, that would be the end of the relationship.

Why would we assume that you have to be 21 years old or the equivalent to drink alcohol in a medieval fantasy world?

There are still many parts of the modern world that allow 16 year olds to drink.

And even in the medieval time period of Europe, pretty much everyone would drink alcohol because it was cleaner than water, although younger people would tend to drink “small beers” that had very light alcohol.

My assumption would be that in this time frame, if the bartender judged you competent and capable of drinking, they would sell you alcohol.

If they didn’t, they wouldn’t, and the only consequence would be that you’re on your own in dealing with the effects of alcohol on you.

I wonder if you could go back to him when he got his start on that TV show with the Wayans brothers and told him that he would enter playing Dr. Robotnik in the Sonic movie what he would think.

Getting your penis involved in this is definitely a you issue.
