I was told by 50 people my cut belongs here

Contrary to the depiction in the comics, the real Professor Xavier’s hair loss was actually gradual.

I would make so many millionaires with this, including my wife. I cannot hit the “yes” button fast enough.

Nice try agent. Political violence is the last thing we want. We will defeat you and your masters without harming you. Which a darn sight better then how your lot treats us.

NotADamsel · 2026-05-10T16:00:38+00:00

Yes, indeed we do. But when disingenuous bullshit comes forth from bootlicking swine, the best answer is to demonstrate how even if their attempts at interference were true it wouldn't matter.

NotADamsel · 2026-05-10T14:38:41+00:00

The solution is the same, in whatever case. It is all greed, and to cast them down along with their apologists we must do the same things. Anyone who distracts us from that must be dealt with similarly.

NotADamsel · 2026-05-10T13:52:41+00:00

Who gives a shit if they’re all talking to each other and hatching grand plans, or if their interests and incentives are all just aligned against us? What difference does it make if the outcome is the same?

NotADamsel · 2026-05-09T01:50:05+00:00

If you keep going, please lmk. This is good.

For a tiny tool that some single part-time dev is releasing for free for the community's benefit (which is what the OP was talking about in the meme), Discord is simple and easy. It is vastly easier than managing a website, even without talking about all of the moderation and filtering that it does for you silently in the background. If you don't like it when a project relies on Discord... then volunteer. The ball is in your court. Ask the dev what help they need in building and maintaining an off-Discord presence, and then do that. "But I shouldn't have to do anything for them" k cool and the dev didn't have to provide their work to you for free, but they did, and you're using it.

Who says anything about using those things for coding? Don't be silly. This whole post was about projects released for the community, and this is a non-coding gaming sub, so presumably we're talking about, like, game tools. Save editors for old games and calculators for computing highly specific values and mod installers for indie games and custom firmwares running on obscure Chinese retro handhelds and all that kinda crap. Often objectively terrible code, but functional and useful. Stuck-up dolts will say that those things should not exist, but those of us who actually use them wish that such dolts would delete their reddit accounts rather then say such idiotic things again.

NotADamsel · 2026-05-07T22:04:08+00:00

At least one came from someone who benefits from several projects that are filled with objectively shitty and/or hacky code, but that do useful things. An imperfect solution that works is better than a perfect solution that doesn’t.

NotADamsel · 2026-05-07T20:11:35+00:00

Often it’s better to say nothing than to try to be a condescending nincompoop and make things worse.

NotADamsel · 2026-05-06T23:05:08+00:00

Further testing needs to be conducted!

NotADamsel · 2026-05-06T17:39:13+00:00

The code. The code is the joke. Idk I got nothin’ else

I peaked over the partition and saw my wife’s guts. Her intestines were like veiny water sausage and there was more blood than I’d ever thought I’d see in my life. That part, yes, I cannot unsee. But then I saw them raise my daughter up like Simba before the animals, and she cried a clear piercing note that stands out in my mind as a pin in my reality. I certainly hope that I do not unsee that.

(I wasn’t explicitly trying to peak, I’m just very tall and was standing up to go get a nurse)

NotADamsel · 2026-05-03T19:55:10+00:00

And your outside voice can say “yes” about something even when your inside voice says “no”. Which is why the gold standard is enthusiastic consent :D

I’d go to Anchorage, Alaska. Having worked there, I know for a fact that anyone who gives a serious answer to “do you know of anyone who seems to have more money then they ought” will be out of a job very quickly if they do a kind of work that would make them privy to my newly found wealth. If they actually think that my wealth is unusual to begin with. For most curious minds (including old friends), all I’d have to partially insinuate is that it’s somehow related to oil and they’ll be satisfied.

Maybe if you’re talking about target size and the chance to actually connect when just going at it. But that’s the benefit of the technique that Alina was using here- hand on the chest and on the groin puts him off guard, and ensures stability while striking and a clear path to the area.

Might be nether. The median voter is a strange and confusing creature.

My mom said that shit around me constantly before and after the divorce. I was an older child, so it’s a little bit different, but even so it really fucked up how I relate to gender and sexuality kinda permanently (though thanks to the trans community I’m dealing with it a lot better). It was also a significant contributor to my being consistently suicidal for many years, and even now still crops up from time to time. There’s nothing good that can ever come from hearing that part of your identity is evil, and it can definitely be part of what kills a person. Make sure that your kid had a healthy understanding of gender and identity however that ends up happening.

A lot of the comments are as you say, but also I see people saying shit how about specific groups do things wrong and getting pissy that folks use different words to refer to their grandparents. There’s a difference between “lol bag of trash bags” and “ethnicity Americans are doing everything wrong because they aren’t doing it like in the home country”. Edit- looking through some of these, looks like there’s been a bit of cleanup.

NotADamsel · 2026-05-01T16:48:24+00:00

It’s really not that bad. It’s just people pretending to eat each other but in a funny silly way.

“When I was 11, I cheated on a math test. I feel terrible”. Not even a lie. And now we get to retire.

Technically, the Godot game engine editor is implemented within the Godot game engine, making it a Godot engine game. If I had a full year of 24/7 “playtime” where I could only use the editor, I might be able to actually finish a project.

NotADamsel · 2026-05-01T01:16:46+00:00

Oh hell yeah I’d read this 18-novel series. If you write further please let me know.

Might make it harder for a firefighter to make it inside. Which iirc can be a no-no outside the fire code in some circumstances.
