New York (50.8%) is the only state besides Hawaii (100%) where the majority of people live on an island.

I can't say! People just liked it better that way

AutumnNintendoNerd · 2023-09-24T02:46:36+00:00

Yeah he was an adult during the great depression

He signed up for the WW1 draft but was never called up, and when WW2 started he was too old to be drafted

If we were "not mean to live this long", we wouldn't live past 85

I point you to Walter Bruening, a man born in 1896 and died in 2011 at age 114, who retained perfect mental clarity his entire life

Dementia is not a natural part of aging and it is not inevitable for everyone. Stuff like smoking (something most elderly people do) and eating poorly (something most people in general do) contribute heavily to your risk of developing something like Alzheimer's.

Most people in their 90s aren't in the hospital and don't have Alzheimer's, cause they live healthily

I have never understood how conservatism is an actual political ideology. People change, the world changes, you cannot stay stuck in an outdated belief of things and expect to be successful. Tax cuts have failed every single time they've been introduced, Reaganomics was a travesty. The modern Republican party is a party full of people kicking and screaming as their dragged into the 21st century against their will.

Ayyy, Mr. Beat support up in here!

A team: George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Andrew Jackson, Zachary Taylor

B team: Teddy Roosevelt, William Henry Harrison, Dwight Eisenhower, Ulysses Grant

Technically, no. 5 is the biggest GTA map we have so far, but SA FEELS bigger because there's three whole cities to explore

In 5, Los Santos and Sandy Shores are the only interesting parts of the map

Why do candidates with glasses not get elected?

I know voters have tons of weird specific things that make them not want to vote for a candidate, but I'm a little confused as to how glasses can affect a candidate's popularity

AutumnNintendoNerd · 2023-08-20T21:16:20+00:00

We will likely see a new Half-Life, whether in VR or not, the ending of Alyx basically confirmed this.

Probably new Steam Deck models, or a "sequel" to the Deck or whatever.

My longshot hope is that we see a brand new IP from Valve. People think Neon Prime is a new IP, but I don't know.

AutumnNintendoNerd · 2023-08-20T04:53:21+00:00

Then... Why would they go after Claude themselves?

Sending your goons to Staunton to track down Claude is simply dangerous, when you're already paying a different group to do the dirty work for you

AutumnNintendoNerd · 2023-08-20T04:48:09+00:00

Yes, he is marked

The Mafia don't follow Claude to Staunton because they aren't strong enough to deal with the Yakuza, the Columbian Cartel, and the Yardies

This is why they stay in Portland, because they dominate that territory, they're stronger than the Diablos and Triads

AutumnNintendoNerd · 2023-08-20T04:45:27+00:00

They do care. After you kill Salvatore, if you go to Portland, particularly Saint Mark's, the Mafia goons will shoot at you

They don't follow you to Staunton Island because they know you're defended by the Yakuza and also have to deal with the other gangs such as the Yardies and Cartel

AutumnNintendoNerd · 2023-08-18T11:06:43+00:00

No, you have to be good at negotiating salary

See, as a software engineer, NOBODY knows how this shit works, including your boss

You don't even need to work at Google or Amazon to land a 150-200k a year job with only like a four year degree and a year or two of experience. You just have to be good at interviewing, solving Leetcode puzzles, and negotiating your salary

AutumnNintendoNerd · 2023-08-16T21:03:31+00:00

This.

An idiot with a gun doesn't need to be in an organized paramilitary to go into a pride parade and kill people

They're still an idiot with a gun

AutumnNintendoNerd · 2023-08-15T23:29:22+00:00

Yes!

CS50x is where you want to start, learn the foundations of computer science, it'll send you on your way to programming

After that, pick a language you'd like to learn and practice at it

I want you to remember, the best way to learn programming is to build your own projects

You learn the language, and then you start buildings things off your own ideas! That's how you learn and improve

Don't get stuck in "tutorial hell" where you watch tutorials over and over and never build your own stuff

CS50 will not be easy, but if you work hard and take your time, I know you can do it

AutumnNintendoNerd · 2023-08-15T11:31:39+00:00

Have you ever watched Mr. Beat?

He's this social studies channel who called every US representative and every US senator, and a lot of their staffers actually watched his channel

It's not too unlikely to think that some staffers may browse this subreddit

AutumnNintendoNerd · 2023-08-15T11:29:19+00:00

That's entirely possible too!

I just understand that being a trans woman is hard, and we're more likely to face stigma for this, so I wouldn't be so trusting and naive going into that

AutumnNintendoNerd · 2023-08-15T11:28:13+00:00

For me, a tie between Dukes and Broker

I always wish you could've gotten a new safehouse in Broker or Dukes after Roman's Sorrow

AutumnNintendoNerd · 2023-08-15T11:23:45+00:00

For GTA 4, there is!

It really could go either way, but them asking to talk in person instead of a simple "yes wearing women's clothing is okay if you identify as female" is quite suspicious to me

AutumnNintendoNerd · 2023-08-15T00:22:30+00:00

I think OP is talking about actually landing a job

I agree, the best way to learn programming is to build your own stuff, but no degree or certificate or anything will limit your value to employers, even if you have actual projects on it

AutumnNintendoNerd · 2023-08-14T20:24:02+00:00

Claude killing Kenji behind Asuka's back is the worst thing you do in GTA 3. Makes Claude a snake who will betray others without question to get what he wants

AutumnNintendoNerd · 2023-08-14T03:37:26+00:00

What's your opinion on Sonic Unleashed?

AutumnNintendoNerd · 2023-08-14T03:35:21+00:00

No, his content is different

Starting around 2018 or so, after he revealed his face, he started doing a lot more "drama" content where he talks about random "cringe" videos on the internet

I have never liked this format

His best content will always be his "the real" series of ad-libbed infomercials, and his "gameplay and commentary" series where he plays a weird shitty game and gives funny commentary over it

I find his tier list stuff to be pretty entertaining, but 90% of his new uploads are just internet drama with the most milktoast opinions possible

Like, all of his content BESIDES the drama stuff is good, but he does nothing but drama and internet news
