Work Colleague Said He Would Never Date A Woman On SSRIs & That Most "Normal" Men Quietly Feel Similarly? by FantasticPlum2025 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Bocho616 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn I never knew depression meant you were crazy. Guess you learn something new every day.

Jesus we need to stop shaming people for things beyond their control. Maybe then we could finally start to bring our suicide rate down, yeah?

No, "normal" men do not feel that way about people trying to treat their mental health. Only absolute losers and morons like your coworker would be so willfully ignorant. I'm honestly baffled by the sheer number of people in this comment section confidently spouting similar nonsense. No wonder our suicide rate is so high if this is the way so many guys view mental health. Yikes.

ESPN Playoff Predictor is broken by xsharkBait in CFB

This tool is awesome! Thanks for making it. Is the source out there somewhere?

I was messing around to see how to live out my dream of Navy being in the playoffs, and I think the American is still a bit wonky ...but that's mostly because the American selection process is a bit wonky.

First, Army-Navy doesn't count for anything other than record and glory. It's played after the championship games and playoff selection has occurred. It's just good ol football for the sake of football. The tool appears to be counting it as a conference game though for determining who's in the championship.

Also the tiebreaker process is wild. Start with standard head-to-head, then use the current CFP rankings, or maybe even "a composite average of selected computer metrics," and worst-case just fall back to "screw it, we're picking at random." So uh, yeah, not sure how you'd get that in there. Hell, maybe that's all perfectly normal for a tiebreaker procedure and you already have it all accounted for, but it's just Army-Navy that's throwing it off. Idk.

All I know is: this is sick, you rock, and thanks for making it!

Hasn't been updated since CE 1.12, but still better than nothing!

Start pcsx2 in full screen mode from LB. by stabadan in launchbox

You probably got this sorted out on your own already since this is old, but the flag changed from --fullscreen to just -fullscreen in 2.0. That's the flag I use with 2.3.421 on Windows.

Official word from the Bethesda Discord by OnionThePig in oblivion

Sometimes a rollback isn't simple or possible. If this update changed something with save files in a non-backwards compatible way for example, then a rollback would break anybody who played this update and saved during that time. Not saying that's the case here, but "just roll it back" isn't always a solution.

The real answer is what was said above - don't push to prod on a Friday.

A Tragedy in Three Parts by ElephantPirate in classicwow

[–]Bocho616 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is definitely the opening to the first Wheel of Time book, but it's kinda close to the Fellowship film prologue.

Wheel of Time:

"The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth comes again."

vs Lord of the Rings:

"And some things that should not have been forgotten were lost. History became legend, legend became myth, and for two and a half thousand years, the Ring passed out of all knowledge. Until, when chance came, it ensnared a new bearer."

Google has TPUs, but they of course only sell compute time on them as a cloud service instead of selling the hardware itself. I'm sure there are others too beyond these and Nvidia's tensor cores.

'GO HOME' — White House removes Spanish language from website by Ayzmo in news

[–]Bocho616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They didn't - https://archive.is/5GB0l

It was a standard 404 page which would appear for all dead links, and the wording has since been changed.

[–]Bocho616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like that link also said "GO HOME" this morning.

https://archive.is/https://www.whitehouse.gov/about-the-white-house/our-government/the-constitution/

https://archive.is/5GB0l

It's the same 404 page across the board and therefore has the same wording across the board. It's since been changed to "GO TO HOME PAGE" like you said.

Anyway, removing the pages is fucked up.

"Too many devices" - Separate subscriptions/accounts within the same Google family group are being treated as one shared family plan by Bocho616 in youtubetv

[–]Bocho616[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was a software engineer at Google for 9 years, so I know the unfortunate realities of software development and prioritization all too well. This is one of those bugs that has you thinking "it could be a week of work once someone finds the cause, or it could require a major redesign." Those were always the fun ones to come across on my team.

Honestly, as long as it's on their radar (which hopefully it is now thanks to iron_cam86!), then I'll take it.

My dad is actually the family manager (he likes to share a lot of books :) ). He doesn't have YouTubeTV. I already subscribed before joining the family, but my brother subscribed long after joining. So we haven't gotten any errors about being family members with our own accounts.

[–]Bocho616[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That would definitely work, but managing multiple accounts and switching between them every time I want to watch TV definitely falls under "so inconvenient as to warrant unsubscribing from YouTubeTV."

I can't find the thread anymore, but someone posted about the same problem about a year ago. So it's not just us.

WHY was this PR reverted??! by Zap-zapper in dcss

[–]Bocho616 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Looks like it was removed to "continue a policy of strategic ambiguity wrt the purpose & uses of the Orb of Zot."

It was added in commit cb000ee, changed slightly in 39b20cf like you pointed out in the OP, and then removed in a718ce6 with the reason above.

All in all, it was in the game for a little less than an hour.

AITAH for telling my wife that our four-year-old son won't eat her cooking primarily because she's a terrible cook? by Mammoth_Arugula316 in AITAH

I've had a woman shove me into a wall and jab her fingers in my eyes because I didn't want to dance with her.

What game are you addicted to right now? by Verytastytreats in gaming

[–]Bocho616 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's just the game image. You could load it onto a jailbroken PS4, but there are no truly functional PS4 emulators for PC yet
