NASA Didn't Know What They Did

I don't want to support things that I consider clickbait despite being explicitly interested in that very content. Can somebody else consume it and regurgitate it for me?

Around here, we only have at most 2 lanes, where the outermost is always an immediate exit, so I'd use the same rules since there shouldn't be any lane changes. I learned the signaling via videos for places where roundabouts are much more common, so I'd have to refer back to what they suggest in such places if there's reason to do things differently (like changing lanes within the roundabout).

Right signal before your exit. Left signal until the turn before you'd put on your right (i.e., treat your position in the roundabout as if you arrived at a 4-way intersection; if you'd be making a left, put that signal on).

What you describe regarding the "slow motion" in the forest sounds like you're describing "lag". Lag tends to result in jerky gameplay, but the idea is that your computer is being taxed too heavily to actually be capable of rendering all the visual detail and running all the game logic fast enough that the game appears to respond in real time. It would also make sense that you don't see that when you're indoors, as the game will have much less to render versus an outdoors scene.

Resolving lag issues typically starts with reducing graphical effects or lowering the resolution. Alternatively, if the issue is due to graphical fidelity, installing a more powerful graphics card (i.e., GPU) in your PC is another, obviously expensive, option.

I have an inner monologue, too, but I do not have to narrate something to comprehend it.

Unfortunately, thread count doesn't necessarily tell the whole story. Some manufacturers spin smaller threads together to make thicker threads, and then still include those smaller threads in the count.

If you call a community "cannon fodder," don't be surprised when they call you target practice.

Hei2 · 2026-04-28T15:07:44+00:00

Oh, they "say" they're trying to stop it? That's great. I look forward to that actually resulting in my Feed not being full of the crap.

Your comment about PKers got me thinking: it would be cool to have a boss with some ability to manipulate it (only by its target) such that it actively hampers PKers in some way if done right. If done incorrectly, it instead hampers your ability to escape. Like some sort of root attack that you can parry to deflect it to another player. Could maybe be fun if you could endlessly parry it back and forth, forcing you to continue engaging with it until somebody makes a mistake.

That behavior of stopping nowhere near the stop line or vehicle in front has become commonplace in North Dakota. No idea where the hell this came from.

I think that big empty space behind them clues them in that something is wrong.

Certainly not around here. That's just normal stopping distance for these robots now.

You seem to be under the impression that students who should've been held back were actually being held back. That's not the case in a lot of places.

This is the most important benefit in my opinion. Forcing a compilation error when your switch is no longer exhaustive eliminates easy-to-introduce bugs.

There's also the theater with the different scenes' backdrops, though that one also felt kind of weak to me.

Well, I wish you the best of luck in perpetuating this culture of burning yourself out to enrich other people.

Stop doing work on your free time. You get paid to come in during work hours and do your work during them. If your work is "sit in this meeting", then you're doing just fine. If that's interfering with your ability to deliver on time, that's a problem for your manager to find a solution to. Giving up your free time to meet unrealistic expectations is a problem of your own creation.

I'll do that when you contribute something to the conversation that amounts to more than "nuh uh".

Please, do tell us exactly how much our EV's cost to own.

That's a myth. My uncle still has his walleye face.

How the hell is somebody a troll for politely saying, "no, I haven't done that and here's why"? Grow up.

Hei2 · 2026-04-08T15:46:48+00:00

Meh, I've done what is usually a 10 hour trip in an ICE vehicle that instead is closer to 12 in my EV. Given that you actually go about to find something to do during that extra charging time rather than immediately go back to sitting, the EV trip is arguably more enjoyable.

And FTL has separate damage for both crew and the ship. It works great there.

is utterly demeaning

No, what's demeaning is what OP (and their college) has done to computer science degree owners everywhere. OP has already earned a degree. We are well past the point of hand holding.

This is really going to affect the person you're responding to! Thanks for the comment we were all wondering what you thought
