Eh, just kind of a sad paranoid schizophrenic. "Gang stalking" and "targeted individual" are a dead giveaway.

Considering his last post was about going to the hospital for a few days, over a month ago, I suspect he's not okay.

Regardless, I just cancelled my $5/mo donation towards the development of the kbin software. Seeing as how there hasn't been any development in over a month.

I'd imagine reddit could be profitable too if they stopped throwing money at stupid shit like NFTs and avatars. Selling API access for AI training was a good move in terms of bringing in income since it basically costs them nothing, and they could have totally pulled that off without pissing off half their userbase.

It's taxed as income when you receive it. If you hold onto it for over a year then sell it you pay capital gains (which are lower) on the difference between the grant price and current price (if it went up).

Because support is hard enough without supporting other people's code

The reason I don't think it's all that in line with Diablo these days, though, is simply the pacing of the gameplay. You blow up screens of enemies at a time, and your deaths are often so fast that you're not really sure what killed you.

Yeah, that's why I don't care for POE anymore these days.

It is a classic Roguelike

I get that Roguelike is basically a vaguely defined genre now, and though Torchlight 2 in a great game it's definitely not a "classic Roguelike".

We used AA on our CRTs back in the day. Of course we were all running like 1024x768 as the resolution so it was a lot more needed. The higher your resolution the less you need it.

The more surprising part is that there are companies I've never heard of that cost even more.

That stat is for "midwife attended" ie having a professional do it, not "me and my husband".

Xterm supports multiple tabs right? Do that? If not then tmux.

The county announced Tuesday that Paine Field's official name would be Seattle Paine Field International Airport, adding the Emerald City to the title. In a press release, the change will improve the airport's marketing abilities outside of the region and "reinforce its geographic proximity" to Seattle.

Anyone have any ideas on how to do a remote start via voice for your PC? To power it on that is.

Issaquah tenant Mary Marks, whose rent had shot up 23% in the previous year and a half, suspected the algorithm could be behind her rent increase. Her property management company, Avenue5, was named along with the software maker RealPage in one of the lawsuits filed in Seattle. Late last year, Marks wondered if she could join a lawsuit.
Then, she discovered something she had never noticed in her lease.
A one-page addendum buried in the agreement said she had waived her right to bring or join “any purported class-action lawsuit” against her landlord or the landlord’s “agents.” She could only sue individually.

Managing pollution (kbin.social)

I haven't played with it since right after Biotech came out. What are some current strategies for managing pollution these days? Particularly if you go heavy on mechs.

Looks pretty cheesy. Who's the target audience?

It has a demo on Steam this week: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1983990/Stellaris_Nexus/

My first thought was it looked like casual Stellari, but I guess the goal is a 4x that's playable in an hour for multiplayer?

Gives me a little bit of a Slipways vibe: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1264280/Slipways/

Meanwhile, a few hundred feet away, Pioneer Square mainstays Linda Hodges Gallery and the Center on Contemporary Art are celebrating a different milestone: their last First Thursday Art Walk.
Linda Hodges Gallery, whose owner is retiring, and CoCA, which will be operating online only for a while, are among a number of high-profile Pioneer Square galleries that have closed their brick-and-mortar spaces in recent years. At the same time, new galleries, pop-up exhibits and artist-led events like Forest For The Trees are bringing fresh blood to the neighborhood and upending the long-held ways galleries have operated.

The Seattle City Council killed a proposal to build up to 900 housing units in a part of town that has been impacted significantly by chronic homelessness.

“We got down from the car and went inside.”

“I made the line to pay for groceries.”

“He made a party to celebrate his son’s birthday.”

These phrases might sound off to the ears of most English-speaking Americans.

In Miami, however, they’ve become part of the local parlance.

According to my recently published research, these expressions – along with a host of others – form part of a new dialect taking shape in South Florida.

This language variety came about through sustained contact between Spanish and English speakers, particularly when speakers translated directly from Spanish.

In the US we have Mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses that do this; are there any similar in the UK and what kind of religion do they proselytize?
