The Paper Mario games have several laugh-worthy jokes and scenarios

Spiritfarer has a couple

Animal Crossing New Horizons has a couple

Let’s get the other branches onboard too.

“If you had to guess” sounds like you are relying on hearsay there bud

Stereotypes about groups of humans are politically motivated. Not true of dog breeds.

If you know what breed it’s talking about, that suggests there’s probably some truth to it

Or human resources!

They got tired of harassing people on Bluesky and changed things up a bit

They couldn’t just… highlight it in software?

Be result-focused. You’re trying to achieve x. Look at however many tutorials you need to achieve x. Now x is part of your repertoire. Then repeat, with a new x.

Later, you’ll think “I need to do y. I’ve done it before. I’ll just copy that syntax, with new variable names etc” and boom, you’re good at programming.

Don’t write off small devs just because huge corpos are assholes

Hmm how do time zones work at the south pole? Can you run in a small circle and hit most if not all of them?

The one with Hawaii could just pretend they’ve already been wiped out and wait for everyone else to destroy each other

Italics can also denote emphasis.

I use an air fryer

No actually I’ve used physical media since the 90s and haven’t had a reason to change

I will gladly take the customers EA loses

Been playing the entire Battlefield franchise since 1942

Note to readers: 1942 is the name of a game, not the year of release

Increase the volume on your alarm. Set it to a ringtone that is less relaxing. Set multiple such alarms, a few minutes apart.

You don’t need to trust consensus to observe global average temperatures and infer that we’re in uncharted territory in regard to the climate.

It’s the bare minimum. For you to lambast the suggestion of doing the bare minimum would imply you prefer doing nothing, not doing more.

You’re touching on the idea of a “truth baseline” as I call it. How do you know what’s real vs bullshit?

My truth baseline is that maintaining the habitability of Earth is good. From that, I can deduce the following:

• excessive carbon dioxide in atmosphere is bad
• reliance on fossil fuels is bad
• clean renewable energy is good
• people who rail against renewables are bad
• political part(ies) that do the same are bad
• news figures that normalize that are bad

Etc. See where this is headed?

The ambiguity of whether someone is good or not is due to goodness being a subjective quality. There is no such thing as objective good. The closest thing to objective good we can attain is sustainability.

The same can be said about truth. If you want something objective, that’s called fact. Truth is a subjective perception of facts. Thus… there is no one correct truth. Just an openness to adjust to new information while dismissing those who are opposed to your truth baseline.
