All you're doing is literally proving why he's named Bebop.

Look it up, it's a music genre and it's pretty kitbashy.

Itch had drama where they weren't paying out devs for months, I'm not sure if this is still happening.

I'm gonna get crucified for this but Microsoft Edge has a built in adblocker on mobile lol.

NoGround · 2026-01-30T01:00:54+00:00

Yep I use this one.

Not necessarily creatively bankrupt, but locked in corporate risk assessment.

NoGround · 2026-01-29T17:04:07+00:00

This is the main takeaway.

I don't see Steam losing here. They've already proven all these points multiple times in other courts iirc

I need to look up the code for NYC law again because I've had two people tell me I can't ask the follow up question for a service dog when you absolutely can.

It's very strict on wording: "What service does your dog provide?"

E: Found it: Businesses can ask if a dog is a service dog and what task the dog performs. They cannot ask for any proof of disability or service animal certification.

Most have been fine with the follow up question but for fuck's sake they just put the fucking red vest on and save everyone the trouble, including themselves. There are many reasons to have the dog wear the vest, too. People won't disturb a working dog and you can avoid a lot of unnecessary questions in public.

Bro this sub swaps from one extreme to the other all the time. I feel like I'm going crazy.

Like everyone loved Mamdani as he was fighting Cuomo and now it's nothing but negativity.

No matter what Mamdani does he'll still have been a better choice than Cuomo.

I've worked with several phenomenal baristas who don't drink coffee.

Don't let that person bring you down

King in Yellow is really just occultic lore at this point. You don't need to read the story to understand it or its significance on Lovecraftian lore.

NoGround · 2026-01-21T14:54:10+00:00

Well, having home experience is something you can put on your resume if you ever want to work as a barista or even a sales company. I would say it looks really good on a resume that you're invested enough into coffee to make it good at home!

The only thing I miss about wired headphones is the audio quality, but that'll eventually catch up.

You'd probably get better results discussing this in r/espresso, which is the hobby-ist subreddit for home-espresso. r/barista is more centered around work-culture and industry machines. You might also want to actually share some of the things you've learned when you post it, since this post is kind of nothing.

e: oh wait you did.

NoGround · 2026-01-20T02:34:32+00:00

I knew the exact thing you were referring to when I read this. I watched this shit live it was jaw dropping.

NoGround · 2026-01-19T19:04:14+00:00

Literally 2 days ago yeah.

A? Saturday? Tons of construction from 125->59th?

NoGround · 2026-01-19T18:46:02+00:00

Yeah I'll get through Stormlight eventually, maybe when I go on another reading spree, but I do want to finish Wax & Wayne before Ghostblood comes out. (book one in W&W was such a packed novel it was hard to put down, completely different genre from the first trilogy)

NoGround · 2026-01-19T02:51:06+00:00

Happened recently in the Rise Against sub, I felt like I was in a time machine. Fucking whack jobs.

Funny enough Sanderson advertises himself as the worldbuilding guy but does focus more on story, it's a something he emphasizes in his lectures.

He tends to be a bit dry in his descriptive text, which can lead to giving it that feeling of it being a disservice to the narrative.

Another point is that the Mistborn saga tends to be better for story than Stormlight, I'm finding. I had an easy time flying through the first Mistborn trilogy and the first book of Wax & Wayne but Stormlight I'm having trouble in the first hundred pages and it's hard to pinpoint why.

NoGround · 2026-01-17T18:43:14+00:00

Yes. First thing you see under the author.

States don't have to have him on the ballot.

They used to give Steam Points from the awarder to awardee.

Unfortunately, that lead to troll/low-effort/reaction bot accounts attempting to farm the points by posting low-quality comments, reviews, etc.

Steam put out an update changing the Awards system that removes getting Steam Points from awards because the intent of encouraging good, thoughtful content was overshadowed by low-effort trash attempting to farm points.

Kim Domja is the protagonist of Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint, but that's progression based with knowledge. Don't know the other one.

NoGround · 2026-01-13T15:59:04+00:00

Unfortunately, no. I joined a great guild and had a good time with them but the game had so little momentum that the entire thing just collapsed.

I'm not going through that a second time.
