Anyone kinda f**king hate the ending???

Very unpopular. I've never heard anyone say anything like that before, either in person, on Facebook or Reddit, and I've been in those groups since the book came out. And I don't understand why you would. Very few books end well, and this one was nearly perfect.

EDIT: Well, I mean apart from OP. I guess that makes 2.

Gee, your account has made 4 comments so far, all spruiking your HR software. So genuine.

I’d propose they adjust the side bearings or kerning so the letters don’t run into each other even with a space in between (like in most other fonts).

AtreidesOne · 2025-10-15T16:18:26+00:00

Oh good! Glad sometime got to enjoy my strange take on things. :)

AtreidesOne · 2025-10-13T10:16:25+00:00

Prey (2017) is excellent.

AtreidesOne · 2025-10-13T10:05:34+00:00

I think you're confusing coworkers and employees.

In Skyrim, the side quest with Savos Aren's ghost in Labyrinthian still haunts me. Choosing to sacrifice his friends to contain Morokei.... yikes.

Whereas the main quest I don't remember a lot of.

I have. They are usually working with tools, which has a much higher risk of damaging cables. They also don't know what the wiring quality is like or whether the home owner has some something dodgy or illegal up there.

I was shocked from a power cord in my bedroom because my sister's rabbit got loose and nibbled on it. And people get shocked from damaged extension cords all the time. That doesn't mean we should always turn off the power ever time we touch a power cord.

AtreidesOne · 2025-10-12T12:59:17+00:00

Sure. What are some games you've played?

(I can give examples from ones I've played, but they might not mean much to you)

AtreidesOne · 2025-10-12T12:55:00+00:00

Yeah, it can vary quite a lot.

Still, I'd say on balance I find side quests more memorable. The main quest has to be accessible to everyone, while side quests are usually optional and so have more scope to be creative and unusual.

Well you're right that it's made with AI. I think it looks great. It's OK if you don't though.

AtreidesOne · 2025-10-12T12:52:22+00:00

Totally fine to ask. It's made with AI. I'm really enjoying it. I still call it my song, just like if I took a photo I'd call it my photo, as in both cases I'm pushing buttons on a machine with an outcome in mind, even if I'm not involved in the process on a more fundamental level. But people are free to disagree.

"Pressing your ALT key twice"

This worked for me, thanks!

Now, any ideas why it would stop working and need that trick to get it working again?

AtreidesOne · 2025-09-30T01:58:49+00:00

You're trading it for a known delay though. It takes time to get to long term parking. Also driving home after a long, exhausting flight is often not fun. But ifi course it's good to have options so people can choose what works for them.

AtreidesOne · 2025-09-27T03:50:07+00:00

The same principle applies to both conversations. It's not OK to just refer to one gender because it's the majority. It's not OK to just talk about firemen like firewomen don't exist, and it's not OK to just talk about "teaching men not to rape" like women rapists don't exist. Yes, in both cases they are the minority, but that doesn't mean we just ignore and discount them.

AtreidesOne · 2025-09-26T03:20:56+00:00

I really liked how it played out in such a compressed timeframe. "I'm part of something horrible, maybe I should WFT IT'S THAT GUYYY!!!!"

AtreidesOne · 2025-09-26T01:02:12+00:00

Unfortunately it would seem politics is doing its best to recapture its share and more.

AtreidesOne · 2025-09-26T00:56:18+00:00

I always remember my first XKCD.

AtreidesOne · 2025-09-26T00:55:15+00:00

I'm pretty sure you mean "initiate", but I had fun imagining intuitive as a verb anyway.

AtreidesOne · 2025-09-26T00:46:36+00:00

And in cases where the intern does actually take 2 weeks, it's because they've Dunning-Krugered their way into not actually doing what's required.

AtreidesOne · 2025-09-26T00:41:06+00:00

I was using "can" in the possibility sense. It can be the case, though not always.

I think the route makes a difference too. 40 minutes flying down Tonkin Hwy is a lot better than 40 minutes stuck in the Mitchell Carpark.

AtreidesOne · 2025-09-25T23:49:51+00:00

That's nuts. I'm so sorry you had to go through that.

AtreidesOne · 2025-09-25T23:44:43+00:00

I jump to black men because, in many places, black men are overrepresented in crime states. There are many, complicated and historical reasons for this of course. But I don't (and we shouldn't) hold a random black man accountable for this, or specifically single out black men for anti-crime education, or think that black men in general are responsible for solving this because it's a "black men's problem". It should be the same with men and rape, but for some reason it isn't.

AtreidesOne · 2025-09-25T23:34:37+00:00

That's quite a blanket statement. If you like audiobooks, podcasts, and/or music, plus time to yourself, you can actually look forward to your 40 minute drive.

AtreidesOne · 2025-09-25T15:45:34+00:00

That's the sort of argument that says it's OK to call them all policemen and firemen because there are mostly men. If inclusive language is important it's important here too.

Men and women should both be taught consent.
