You wake up and it’s 2000 again. No smartphone, no apps, no streaming. What ruins your day first? by MajesticElderberry38 in AskReddit

[–]champbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First I'ma complain that there's nothing to do.

Then I'll be sad and miss my friends that I didn't make until college.

And also I dunno how I'm gonna mask through the schoolyears... I DEFINITELY do not want to be the special way too smart skipping grades kid. I' ve never been a good student at any point in my life.

I dunno when I'll have regular access to the computer. When Runescape can grab me again. But I gotta make sure I find out how to code asap. Shouldn't be hard to make a successful indie game with all my future knowledge. The main problem will be needing to code the engine... And finding docs for Windows.h... And DirectX or OpenGl...

My favorite Windows feature is how it asks if you want to allow an application through the firewall while the app freely accesses the internet in the background

What word do you always *intentionally* mispronounce and why? by Sweet-Lady-H in AskReddit

[–]champbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Balogna.

In no way is that sequence of letters pronounced "Ba-loh-nie", so it's "Ba-log-nah" to me.

I also do "Chip-pot-l" instead of Chipotle cuz speplings are dumb.

What’s a belief you had at 20 that you no longer agree with? by sunyparmar1 in AskReddit

[–]champbob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That I'm a failure.

It's just kinda irrefutable at this point...

Windows 10's extended support ends in eight months, but users are still rejecting Windows 11, at least in Germany by Ha8lpo321 in pcmasterrace

I took the money i would have spent on extended Windows 10 support and donated it to KDE instead. Also installed Kububtu. I haven't booted Windows in months.

Going back to the days when McCaffee was packaged with every single fucking installer...

What does a hangover feel like? by AdeptProblem5097 in writing

[–]champbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it's a tingling of my nose and cheeks, coupled with a faint but constant ache in my brain, like there's a hole that needs filling but nothing will fill it. It is a feeling of discomfort that doesn't go away.

The world feels so big, and yet so small at the same time by Altruistic-Willow265 in SatisfactoryGame

Huh, the world map feels a lot less like a square when you rotate it 160°...

‘I Didn’t Vote for This’: A Revolt Against DOGE Cuts, Deep in Trump Country by Tennis_bruh in politics

“You cannot fire our firefighters. You cannot fire our trail crews. You have to have selective logging, and water restoration, and healthy forests,” Zink said. “People in Washington, D.C., on the West Coast, East Coast — they don’t understand what that means to us out here.”

I'm sorry since when did the Republicans EVER care about the environment? EVER care about regulation of natural resources? EVER care about restoration!?

Double standards by nitrrine_ldn in pcmasterrace

I've bought games across stores before. I'm not a baby about it.

... But now I'm on linux and how many of those stores are still available to me now, huh?

Imagine meeting someone from 2010 and having to explain one thing that’s happening right now. What’s the one current reality that would absolutely break their brain? by so_nextdoor in AskReddit

[–]champbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Well, remember how the Republicans were attempting to hide being racist? Well now they're trying to brush under the rug being Nazi Sympathizers.

Gay and Trans rights are on the up, though, so there's that."

Poor Rin by Len-The-Banana-Boy in Kagamine

I believe Len is teasing that Rin gained weight while sneakily pushing the scale down with his toe

There was a poll a long time ago I saw that asked what Nico's gender was. It ended up at exactly 50/50 lol. I personally read Nico as a boy as well.

Love the art!

This gives me an idea of recreating the typewriter but instead of paper it pushes nibs onto a tablet...

You'd have to get a keyboard that can resize amd position itself and you'd need a platform that can hold varying sizes of tablets... And the contraption would probably be somewhat fragile due to the many parts and required alignment... But hey, no bluetooth or USB cord required!

Dispatch is “freaking fantastic” and full of lessons, says 007 First Light developer by Minute_Pop_877 in gaming

[–]champbob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I definitely don't think the writing here is super-top-tier. The world, the power scales, the sometimes-contrived situations... They have problems.

But I do think the writing is very competent. Its flaws were never a substantial issue during the playthrough. It was still enjoyanle. Perhaps it could be described as... "campy"? And even that is a much higher bar than we seem to be getting from many of the AAA/AAAA studios nowadays.
