Seconding OpenCourseWare. I used that a lot before and during undergrad (engineer with math minor).
I do recommend checking out the “fun” math videos as well because you’ll learn a lot and it’s fun, like Numberphile, 3 blue 1 brown, etc
Actually, missing because of a high-side on a motorcycle years ago. I did break some bones, but also tore through the ligament. Well, I guess it died from lack of being attached or whatever and was gone by the time they got an MRI on it
It allowed the bicep to regularly pop out of the humeral groove, which I assure you was not pleasant
I had some chronic shoulder pain for years. Primary physician was like “yeah that sucks”. 2 specialists were like “yeah, old collarbone injury I guess? Take Advil”
Years later, third specialist opinion found a missing ligament and did surgery.
Moral of the story is that you should get a few opinions here, maybe the first isn’t right
From a philosophy standpoint, Victor Frankl’s Man’s Search for Meaning. It’s a brutally tough read, but a very interesting perspective of a Holocaust survivor and some of the more “mundane” parts (which were still horrific) in between the parts most people know about. The philosophy that follows is interesting.
It’s certainly not without it’s faults and criticisms, though.
Game is such an unbelievable slam dunk for me. Outer Wilds.
But if I could forget two, it’d be Outer Wilds twice because it’s an incredible story
Oooo Obra Dinn is a good answer
I don’t know that non-lawyers need to figure out exactly what it means, but in an ideal world: if you pay for something that includes a continuation of services and the services stop continuing, you should be compensated fairly. I am not smart enough to word that in a way that can’t be worked around, “gotcha’d”, etc. but I’m guessing the spirit of the rules is fairly common ground for anyone who isn’t trying to rug-pull a service out from under those they sell it to.
For the first example, absolutely. If some execs have a meltdown, it could change future services but anyone who was promised Disney+ on their Tesla with no limit on it should get a fair refund. I understand that there’s a slippery slope argument here, and no– the value of Disney+ in a car isn’t 100% the value of it. But it’s BS that a manchild having an Internet meltdown loses people a service they had and “paid for”
Man I’m in my mid 30s and really loving gaming more these days. Lots of independent shit that’s had me hooked.
In the past few years I fell away from cars/motorcycles (building, racing, etc) and am loving sitting on the couch at home. It’s a stark contrast and has been a lot of therapy time, but I did it for years while not enjoying it. I think my takeaway is leaning into what I want and away from what I don’t
There are tiers of candy corn?
Dude, same. The worst part of my recent should surgery was the lack of caffeine all day (bumped from noon to 4 pm surgery). That first sip of recovery room coffee was incredible
I guess I’d say it like this:
The story unfolding was the most memorable gaming experience I’ve had since childhood (and I game quite a bit), but it probably took ~2 hours of being like “I don’t get it” before anything clicked. My partner (who watched) and I couldn’t put it down after that.
But for sure, it can’t be for everyone
It’s so unbelievably good
They’re saying “prefer hardwired Ethernet cables rather than wifi”
You can disable (today, anyway) the internet search, and it gets wildly more useful after that. I wonder if it’s trying to be two things: searching your computer like it should, and for the less computer literate it’s “help me”
I use VoidTools Everything for searching. It’s absolutely lightning fast and super powerful.
The built in Windows search is such garbage
Okay now’s my time to shine. The words “emoji” and “emoticon” are false cognates, as in they aren’t actually related. Emoticon is a few-decade old word to describe emotion+icon, like :)
Emoji is Japanese (kanji - 絵文字) for picture-word, basically. It super outdates computers.
They just happen to sound similar; isn’t that fun?
Wow, really well said. Extremely important that everyone reads this info above
Edit: thanks for the gold, kind stranger
