PTSD. I suffer from psychosis related to a "relationship" I used to have with an anime girl. Every time I see another anime girl, I have to fight against the feeling of being mesmerized. It's like I'm falling in love with her all over again. Heck, even certain songs I've historically associated with her cause the same response. It's so frustrating and shameful. It makes me hate myself.

I lost count of how many specific part numbers of defective Apple products he rattled off with the same design flaw, but that was a stunning display. Just exposed that they know these things are problems and just don't care, because people will keep buying their products.

I have an idea for a debate. These two go to a golf course determined by a neutral third party (like, I dunno, make the Libertarian party agree on something for once in their lives) for a 9 hole game (18 holes probably wouldn't work in the TikTok world). Eight topics, and then a concluding statement. On the first hole, they make their introductory statements between shots. They start with the same amount of time, but after that, they get more time to articulate their points based on how well they did on the last hole. After all the golfing is done, that's when they deliver their concluding statements, again getting time based on how well they did.

Let's settle the question of who the better golfer is once and for all.

Ask an average amateur radio group/forum what the best radio under $50 is. In equal numbers, you will be flooded with suggestions by people who believe their own handheld within (or slightly above) that price point beats every other option, and other people who insist that any radio that inexpensive is "cheap Chinese garbage" and you have to spend upwards of $200 to get a decent starter radio.

They're not immaculate. They used to outright deny people the right to refund their games, but they turned that around after a massive lawsuit from a government agency. Good change! I support that. But they're not behaving in an anti-competitive manner. What, are they supposed to intentionally make themselves worse in the hopes that other stores pop up? That's not how any of this works.

Telehealth pill mills like this are the reason we have an ADHD medication shortage. We had a TON of people prescribed Adderall over the pandemic and now they're hooked. This company's entire business model was about establishing a nationwide customer base of amphetamine addicts to maximize their profits.

Among a few other things, it makes leveling up twice as fast as normal UP (apparently UL doubled the XP needed to level up), you gain two perk points per level, the amount of research data you get from schematics (which you need to craft others and upgrade workstations) is doubled, and the chance to upgrade items is changed to always 100%.

My favorite mod is Undead Legacy. It lets you craft schematics for the items you need by scrapping the ones you don't need. You can find cars in the world and repair them to full working order, including lights and sirens on police cars. The progression is much more granular with item tiers doing from H all the way up to S three stars, and that includes the item mods now. Your inventory is weight-based instead of slot-based (except for containers) and you can carry a much wider variety of gear.

If this mod sounds fun, I strongly recommend also adding the anti-bullshit sub-mod that someone made for UL.

If I remember right, it doesn't just have to be grape wine either. Although if you want to make cognac (a type of brandy), it has to be grape wine.

Until Discord either starts selling data to OpenAI or they start scraping data from/similar to sites like https://spy.pet/ .

I'm playing a Star Wars Saga Edition game right now where my character is a former privateer fighting in the Jedi Civil War for the Sith. He was fairly honest with his party members about his former criminal affiliations, that's how he met them in the first place. The fact he was on the wrong side of the war only came out when a conversation about the war came up and he was directly asked about it. The Jedi in the party took it surprisingly well, but that's probably more due to the conversation being completely unserious other than his admission.

Lesson learned: you can probably trust your party with your dark past.
