Everything has a neurological component to it, because you're a brain thinking about it, right? At least that's what I'm getting from that.

Technically still made by Microsoft, but what about VSCodium?

But vinyl is still inherently lossy, so the argument still applies.

Maybe make the bot not fetch video posts?

Yeah I love these "free" (33.9€ optional) games

They're almost as great as the free (20€/skin) games

"but you can just not buy the skins" sure and people can just not go to the casino and lose their life savings, but that's not how some brains work.

Disagreed. ^/s^

Restarting can be a pain too.

Recently, I decided to install arch linux on an old laptop my sibling gave to me. I'm not new to Linux, I've been running a debian server for a year now and I have tried several VMs with different systems. But this was my first time installing arch without a script, and on bare metal.

Installing arch itself wasn't that much of an issue, but there was a bigger problem: the PC didn't recognize the pendrive for boot in UEFI mode. It seemed to work in the regular boot mode, but I didn't want to use that. I made sure to deactivate safe mode and all the jazz. Sure enough, I could get UEFI boot working.

I install arch, works fine, I reboot. Oops! I didn't install dhcpcd and I don't know how to use network manager! No internet, great!

In my infinite wisdom, instead of trying to get NM to work, I decided to instead chroot back into the system and install dhcpcd. But my surprise when... The boot menu didn't recognize the USB again. I tried switching between UEFI and normal boot modes on the bios and trying again, after all it appeared last time after changing it, right?

"Oh it doesn't appear... Wait, what's this? No boot partition found? Oh crap..."

Turns out, by changing the setting on the BIOS I probably deleted the nvram and with it the boot table settings or whatever they're called. I deleted GRUB.

Alas, as if to repent for my sins, God gave me a nugget of inspiration. I swap the USB drive from the 3.0 port to one of the 2.0 ports on the other side and... It works, first try. The 3.0 port was just old and the connection bad. And I just deleted GRUB for no reason.

Usually, I would've installed everything from scratch again, but with newfound confidence, I managed to chroot into the system and regenerate the boot table or whatever (and install dhcpcd). And it worked! I had a working, bootable system, and an internet connection to download more packages.

I don't know what the moral of the story is I just wanted to share it :)

By using the word "outlet" you're implying some sort of emotional buildup. Otherwise you're not saying anything at all and your comment is pointless (no offence!).

What is that argument? Do you need an "outlet" or you'll eventually become a rapist? I think many people spend years/decades without sex and they don't suddenly become unstable.

Btw, something that really confused me when I was younger: "98% effectiveness" doesn't mean a condom works 98% of the time, and 2% of the time you can get pregnant.

It actually means that 98% of people that use a condom never get pregnant, and 2% do (over some amount of time I'm guessing? I'm not sure).

There is no mystery, there are no more planes going down there than average.

A compilation of some invasions I did a couple years ago, when the servers were still up.

I had a lot of fun making and using those builds, even though I also died a lot :'D

Hello internet friends! Last year I decided to learn python, and I set on making a blackjack game - sounded like a simple prospect. Cue many hours of trial and error and reading documentation.

Months passed, and little by little I kept adding things. Now it feels kind of enjoyable to play to me, so maybe some of you or your blajahs will find it interesting too.

You need to have python and pygame installed to play. Sorry if my github is a mess and I'm not supposed to upload it like this, I mostly have no idea what I'm doing!

Any feedback or comments are appreciated :)
