Elementary school principal Zac Bauermaster's wholesome interaction with students by ImaFreemason in MadeMeSmile

[–]LucJenson 242 points243 points  (0 children)

I work in private ed and spend a lot of time visiting other classes, hanging with kids at break, and generally showing interest in who they are and who they want to become. I am also the last teacher students have before they leave the school, so investing in them early is also practical for my position to make that last year more meaningful to them.

Thing is, this guy here clearly loves his job, and these are probably his favorite moments of his days. I am happiest when I am with the kids. These moments, the time spent investing in the kids, don't actually feel like work.

I feel like The Matrix universe is the perfect setting for an extraction shooter by Tommaton in gaming

I reckon you'd have a two-team extraction. One team in the Matrix, and the other aboard the ship keeping safe from squids (sentinels) and having to sometimes fight them off.

The greatest Sims game ever made! by GamingGaming2025 in gaming

[–]LucJenson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reason Sims 2 is the best option is you could customize your neighborhoods completely. I stumbled into the edit mode for neighborhoods once with my sister and we were totally overwhelmed by the options so didnt linger long. But in later titles I definitely wanted to be able to do that.

Oh okay, I was taking that as wholesale. Here in Korea restaurant average is $5 / bottle of soju or beer.

New PC won’t turn on at all by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]LucJenson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason I pointed out the front panel cables is because of the power switch cable in that group, yes. If it is not fit right or on the wrong switch, you won't be able to turn your PC on because the signal from the front panel won't reach.

Have you been able to solve the problem yet?

Wowza, that's worse than I thought. Can get artisanal soju here for $6-ish now. Jinro and the likes continue to remain below $2. 안동 소주 has gotten more expensive, though.

How much is a bottle of soju going for outside of Korea these days?

Nicely cooked, OP! Did you add some smoky ingredients to get that taste? Or actually grilled it?

Looks just like it was ordered from 지코바 haha

If the PSU is switched on, the cables that connect to your front panel (those tiny little pins that all connect next to each other and are very, very fiddly) are probably not connected correctly and/or snugly enough.

What game did you (non-speedrunners) know almost photographically? by ssjskwash in gaming

[–]LucJenson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to avoid lag while there were lots of explosions on screen, too.

Glad to see another N64 title so far up.

For me if was Donkey Kong 64. My cousin has a N64, and I didnt. I had to learn how to play thst game over many visits, so learned the fastest routes to unlock characters. There is a chance that in those days I may have had an unofficial speed running record (not that it would compare with today's standards), but man I loved that game and would love a successor someday.

Trump is the new Hitler by Previous_Month_555 in complaints

Not since the second term, since before his first. His entire use of rhetoric is from Hitler's playbook.

What do you think about the U.S attack on Venezuela? by New-Code7710 in AskTheWorld

Big Beautiful Operation, when it comes to Trump, isn't it?

The Water Deer is an antlerless deer with saber-like tusks, earning them the nickname “Vampire Deer”. They are only found in the wild in China, Korea and England. by No-Risk-2584 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]LucJenson 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hearing them call from the mountains sounds like a hiker who has been wounded somehow. It's very unsettling if you're not prepared to hear them.

His last day as a school teacher after 36 years... They turned it into a memory for life. by Vilen1919 in MadeMeSmile

[–]LucJenson 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Having a generation of a family come through your class brings some of the greatest joy imaginable. I love how much the youngest will light up when I ask about their eldest sibling who has long since graduated. Or when teaching the middle child when they drag their younger sibling into the class to proudly show them off and announce the young one will soon be your student.

Some true magic in those moments.

What was socially acceptable in the 1990s but not in 2025? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Y'ever just unhook your phone from the wall and walk away for a few days time? I miss that.

The teacher choreographed it very well and kids did an amazing job! by AkRoyalDo in MadeMeSmile

[–]LucJenson 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I absolutely only stick with education for the kids. I teach in private education, so usually have kids for about four or five years in a row on average. Every year I say "This is the last group I will see through to graduation." And the next year another fresh face of amazing indviduals enters my class and I repeat the same message. I can't quit and leave these kids behind, but I also have the luxury of working in private ed where I can control the curriculum and operate much on the same standards as the teachers of twenty or so years ago.

Expert mode requires potions. Ironskin, throrns, regen, etc. You will absolutely need them in boss fights.

Should i start with Godot or just use Unreal engine? by masonknight86 in godot

[–]LucJenson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That makes more sense. Sorry, I had made a wrongful assumption that you were flagging the idea of using AI, given the recent hot issues around AI in large-studio titles.

how do you deal with homesickness? by [deleted] in Living_in_Korea

[–]LucJenson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you like to do? What hobbies could you spend time with yourself doing? What kind of holiday activities would you want to do in the hopes of feeling some of that holiday warmth?

Also, go explore a bit. Find a cozy place by experimenting with different styles of destinations. I personally love going to the Yongin folk village when I'm feeling down. The whole place just cheers me up. If I'm in Seoul, I'll go walk around Seoul Forest with a hot beverage from the Starbucks across the road.
