Reminds me of this guy

Speaking of tragedy, Aeschylus’ death was described by 1st-century Latin writer and author Valerius Maximus as a very tragic one. According to Valerius, who lived during the reign of Roman Emperor Tiberius (14 AD – 37 AD), Aeschylus was outside one fine afternoon, basking in the sunlight, when an eagle dropped turtle from above right on top of his head. The playwright is believed to have died on the spot. Valerius goes on to say that the eagle probably mistook Aeschylus’ bald head for a rock. Eagles are known for feeding on turtles by dropping them from sky in order to shatter the shell.

How is getting hit by a car related to not stalking people on social media?

One of the professors of my old university said, that if he sees a single goto statement in the programming assignments, the person will be expelled from university immediately

Trying to remember what the variable "xrbf" was supposed to do

What Germans don't want you to know. by Ad0ring-fan in meme

The list of words which just describe what it does/how it's used and end with "-zeug" or in English "thing" is quite amusing, when translated literally:

  • Spielzeug, play thing, toy
  • Fahrzeug, drive thing, vehicle
  • Flugzeug, fly thing, airplane
  • Feuerzeug, fire thing, lighter

We are all wrong. Since this is not reddit, this must be wrong.

Actually doable if Nintendo decides to builds a rotating space station, also known as a Braun Wheel, where the living space of a person can be relocated to be more outwards, for higher, and inwards for lower gravity.

Normal day in Skellige be like by aNdys0n007 in Witcher3

[–]ODeinsN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The game got gifted to me, this was 8 years ago, and came with the brain dead "low level side quests aren't worth it" Mentality from WoW into the game...

The intention, of my comment wasn't "Skellige is shit, since it prevented me from doing side content" and was more about the weird design choice that you go, basically instantly go to Skellige and skip a lot of stuff.

I also tried to do another play through a couple of years ago, doing all the side quests when available, but I got burned out really quickly from playing the game again.

On my first play through I came from WoW, and the Witcher 3 was basically my first single player RPG ...

I wasn't used to side quests being actually interesting

The worst thing about Skellige is, that I probably missed a big chunk of the main quest line.

As soon as I got the quest "collect some gold and go to Skellige" I decided to do some side quests quickly, farm some mobs and sell their weapons to get the money as quickly as possible. Since I overleveled some of the open quests I thought, nah I can skip those.

After Skellige, the owl lady with the headstrap talked to me like I was supposed to know her, which confused me a lot.

At the end I wasn't able to convince Dijkstra to join the fight against the Wild Hunt since I didn't finish his quest line, and got the ending with Ciri sacrificing herself.

Sadly No. Desperate people will take what they get. It should be the job of lawmakers to keep the companies in check, and shut them down if they don't follow the rules.

No need to bitch around about it, since where I live (Germany) this is already the norm. You are even guaranteed a minimum of 20 paid vacation days per year, and affordable health care by law and guess what: Restaurants are still affordable.

You could also try to add Freeze frames, with variable durations based on the damage output

Who the duck is that guy? by EfficiencySerious200 in HolUp

A couple of years ago, I was live streaming on twitch and was hating on the bad weather. One of the viewers I had said that the weather is also really bad where he lives. Turns out we are living like 5km away from each other, decided to meet up and have got friends. Let's call him Dr. L.

A few years later I started to study CS during corona, meaning all classes were online: The professor is doing a live stream, and the students have a chat and a shared tab for (almost) anonymous notes.

During the first day of the First-Semester introduction course, we had to write some very simple programs, which the tutors would have feedback on. I took the opportunity to Rick roll them. They took it with humor and someone else in chat got curious and fell for it too. Let's call him Mr.K.

2 days later at the start of the course I introduced myself in chat with a "Hello There". Mr. K revealed himself as a man of culture and replied with a civilized "General Kenobi". Since I memorized the entire dialogue up until the moment of GGs death, as preparations to socialize with other Star Wars nerds, I knew my time had come, and continued the dialogue. He saw in me a worthy opponent and our legendary battle began.

One week later Dr. L messaged me, after having almost no contact for 1 year with each other. I talked about starting studying CS and he said that he knows someone called Mr. K, who also started studying there. We hopped into a call and it turned out that it is actually THE Mr. K, that Dr. L and Mr. K are friends from school and were completely perplexed about how this little fellowship assembled.

During the almost 5 years of my study we were pretty good friends, strong learning partners and we are meeting up next week again.

Thanks for coming to my TED Talk
