Gentoo should be on an island surrounded by a ring of rocks that makes it almost impossible to get to

snake oil salesmen have nothing on this motherfucker

up until Counterstrike went to 1.0, I was in the top 100 players off and on. My TFC clan hosted the first dedicated playable servers when it was released. The ladders would kill you if you jumped off them lol in the initial release.

I ran the second most popular counterstrike skins page for a few years

One week I decided to see how high I could rank in the gamespy/wql leaderboards and I peaked at 16 for the week. I got into the top 10 for the day a couple times. I remember facing most of the best players of that era. or at least the people that played on gamespy or world quake leaderboards reporting servers.

But I stopped playing and then the 1.0 version came out and my days off really took my edge off. I was never able to really get into it again. I’ve never played the latest version of it.

one time while I dropped acid and played it, I was so in the zone I had a 40+ killing streak. I never cheated but was banned from a lot of servers for dominating so much.

as a joke my friends and I would all play as teen pop stars or we’d pick silly names like mine was often “little yellow flower” lol because it would piss off the hardcore kids when we’d post screenshots of them getting crushed

i was reading earlier that this is looking more and more like ENRON style accounting and acquisition. That ended badly but it didn’t happen on a scale that NVIDIA is currently treading

if you have an REI near you, their branded stuff is usually above average and if it doesn’t hold up, you can get a refund or excange easily enough

yay breaks too often to be relied on for system updates

don’t let this type of bantering concern you

we are all just splitting hairs and knocking each other’s preferences when it is basically trivial. Like BMW and Mercedes drivers trying to one up who drives the superior German car

they also outright steal and then reproduce

in some ways its funny because they don’t usually improve but since its their cultural space to be social it is the one way to put a dent in capitalism

it will probably limit 3rd parties for a short time, until they purchase the tool that is required

or someone reverse engineers a tool that doesn’t violate some trademark

these things never stay in one parties control for long

yeah he was mumbling just like Beavis all right!

yeah, the people that can do it are usually very dedicated and reliable

working there, you truly see the staff are like family and you have to look out for each other like they are your flesh and blood

I worked at a state mental hospital so I can’t really tell my stories but mostly the stuff that happens is painfully sad and the way it bleeds over to the staff is awful.

one of my coworkers murdered his ex girlfriend who was also an employee , he tried to murder her daughter but thankfully she survived

Doctor on his last day before retirement getting attacked by a patient that bites into his calf and won’t let go until the staff pulled them away from each other. I had to prepare a copy of the tape for the legal system and while I was reviewing the footage, I watched a couple of other patients doing something odd. It looks like a drug deal between patients while everyone is occupied by the commotion.

So I get the head nurse to look at it with me and we can’t really see until she recognizes the candy wrappers. I never fully found out what happened but supposedly the patients do dirty tricks for each other sometimes and candies can be currency

there was a whole ward that was dedicated to a single patient because they were unpredictable and violent. Rumor was that the cops found him with a family members head in a bag when they picked him up.

I remember this nice enough guy asking me for a cigarette and since I don’t smoke I said no. He got a little goofy and rambled about fire. My coworker told me he burned his family home and killed everyone in it.

I had a wall like this in the basement of my old house, behind it was cement and the 2x4s and drywall didnt start till above it. I started to take it down and realized it was better then the cement and put it back up and painted it. Sometimes one ugly is better then another.

oh, copypasta… even worse!

opiates

there’s many street names for it but basically “the nods” makes the most sense. They are literally falling asleep

this is just dumb and you should feel bad for spending so much time writing it

I have had arch installed on this laptop for 10+ years

today I look at the state of drive space

the OS is at a little less then 37GB of which 18.5GB are cached installs from pacman

cleaning the cache is as simple as paccache

10 years this install has been on this laptop and I use it daily.

Where is the bloat?

The MacOS of 7.x< is nothing like the MacOS of the modern era (based on BSD). It is a drastic change and old software wasn’t even compatible with the new one.
