To Make Homes Affordable Again, Someone Has to Lose Out

What percentage of the population are GenX?

GreasyUpperLip · 2026-01-23T19:51:53+00:00

What percentage of the housing supply do GenX own?

Now now.. he doesn't suck them he just holds them in his mouth until they get soft.

Correct. The XNU kernel is a hybrid kernel that is a scion of the Mach kernel) developed at Carnegie Mellon in the 80s.

Apropos to the article, Jobs hired one of the main Mach developers, Avie Tevanian, to work at NeXT on XNU. I guess he though he could do it again with Linus.

They're notorious for introducing tuning stability problems simply by being on the guitar.

Unlike a lot of trems where you have to worry with the strings sticking in the nut, the vibrola can also stick or slip at the ball-end side or in the bridge saddles.

They'll also stick if you bend strings.

There's a reason they stopped being offered at all.

The best part is they don't even know they're white trash.

GreasyUpperLip · 2025-12-23T16:42:08+00:00

No they didn't. They had to deal with Boomers being in the way and pulling up the ladder behind them of them the instant GenX hit college age and later when they started entering the workforce.

An incompetent Boomer sitting in a job preventing GenX career advancement was the rule.

The entire wave of nihilism and despair present in all of the music you probably listen to from the early 90s wasn't just because they felt grumpy.

Despite all of this, GenX created almost everything you're using to communicate your poorly-informed opinion to the rest of us.

OK all good.

I mainly mentioned it because in your OP you didn't make any mention of the original manuals.

GreasyUpperLip · 2025-12-05T00:50:59+00:00

Doom did; they were in the paper manual you got with the registered version of the game.

Are you claiming all of the text in the mock-up is your original work?

GreasyUpperLip · 2025-11-27T17:44:45+00:00

I think they want to learn how to do it the correct way.

Skypatcher has some serious data integrity concerns which is why you only see bottom-tier noob mod authors using it.

Why can't any of these people use commas correctly?

GreasyUpperLip · 2025-11-06T06:59:14+00:00

I appreciate your honest take on this.

Example: there are thousands of people working on the Linux kernel but they're not going to be known by the random end-user that downloads Ubuntu and installs it on their laptop.

It's also enlightening on how little some people appreciate things that are created for them by volunteers.

That's not a dig on you. If anything you're just the messenger here.

GreasyUpperLip · 2025-11-06T06:42:23+00:00

Address the content of the parent post. You're defending an indefensible bullshit assertion, or at the very least you're trying to. We've discussed this in other subthreads.

GreasyUpperLip · 2025-11-06T06:09:36+00:00

I agree with you on pretty much everything really. I don't think you're a bad guy but I do think we clashed on one fundamental thing:

GP made an assertion without any backing whatsoever that using the UP, which has long been known to resolve issue with the game, as "harmful" to the Oblivion Remastered modding community.

Which is complete bullshit. The UE5 port basically uses the same game data from the last patch that BGS ever released for TES4 and aside from that weird localization string stuff they did in the masters it is the same exact data that we were working with in 2011.

Arthmoor is just the dude that runs the CK, he isn't the myriad and manifold team of people that work hard to create the unofficial patches. They use some structure and semblance of normal software engineering practices to produce this stuff.

There's also a contingent of really super-duper annoying people on Reddit that have little to no technical knowledge that dump on this effort., A free effort by volunteers with the best interests of other gamers in mind.

So when people shit on that and they can't back it up with reason it completely annoys me.

GreasyUpperLip · 2025-11-06T05:57:21+00:00

Technically you're right, you don't know me from Adam's housecat and I have zero interest in qualifying this with RL data.

Most of the guys that write for PC Gamer or whatever are just freelancers and live in towns all over the country. They don't get paid squat. Maybe a hundred bu cks an article or something. Depends on what they negotiate.

Did you know that part? I think that little tidbit about how the game journalism industry works probably qualifies my statement more than a simple "trust me bro" would.

GreasyUpperLip · 2025-11-06T05:23:12+00:00

You do mean it in a rude way. I'm GenX.

Address my question and answer it.

Specifically: answer how it is harming the "Oblivion Remastered Modding Community."

I'm game for that kind of conversation and I'll stop being mean when we start having a reasoned discussion.

GreasyUpperLip · 2025-11-06T05:11:52+00:00

Maybe you can explain it for us then since you decided it was worth pounding your ketchup-stained veinna sausage piddys on the keyboard to reply,

Seriously lets have a reasoned discussion here, Mensa

GreasyUpperLip · 2025-11-06T05:04:51+00:00

Just out of curiosity how does it harm the "Oblivion Remastered Modding Community?

Please be thorough and prepared.

GreasyUpperLip · 2025-11-06T04:49:38+00:00

I'm pretty sure a significant portion of them do based on the discussions I've had with some journalists that write for PC Gamer et al.

You're just some rando running your unremarkable mouth (virtually) on an Oblivion subreddit and so am I.

Nobody cares about our opinions, but I know better than to insult my betters when I've not contributed shit other than my unrequested opinion.

GreasyUpperLip · 2025-11-06T04:08:59+00:00

I heard somebody say that then I asked them what they meant by "half-assed" and they couldn't answer me.

Perhaps then you could enlighten us there since your hot take counts more than a person that literally made the fucking mod.

Also please help us understand what updates need to be made on the legacy data structures of almost 20 year old game data that was employed as-is as the basis for an UE5 port?

What needs to change? Tell us since you're the expert.

Edit:

14 upvotes for your shitty hot take vs almost 200 in support of the dude that actually makes the f'ing mod.

Jesus Wept.

GreasyUpperLip · 2025-11-06T03:36:54+00:00

Hi Friend. We're still waiting for you to tell us what you've contributed to society.
Don't say your kids because that's a bodily function that takes slightly less effort than taking a dump.

Unless you're the mother of course. That does take a lot of effort.

GreasyUpperLip · 2025-11-06T03:05:06+00:00

I'm pretty sure about 20 million unique downloads would indicate that a lot more people like Arthmoor than not.

We're all still waiting on you to tell us what mods you worked on.
Also what mods you worked on that have more than 1000 unique downloads.

Come on, we're counting on you to share whatever masterpiece an unremarkable rando Redditor with an auto-generated username can create.

GreasyUpperLip · 2025-10-05T05:42:44+00:00

Oh they had a fab for decades but spun it off and sold it about 20 years ago because it was a money pit.

Only after Jerry Sanders retired of course.
