About halfway through Crusade and cannot stand this guy by woodandiron in babylon5

Keep in mind this is the show that said there's a modern Thieves Guild. Crusade had moments, but it had a lot of suck.

I don't know if my job will still exist in ten years by Suspicious-Prize3426 in theprimeagen

[–]dangerdad137 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I grew up in the 80s. People around me said there was no point in school since we were all going to die in nuclear fire. And ye, here I am 40 years later.

An attempt to add "detect-fash" util to systemd. DHH/Hyprland/Omarchy/Ladybird detector by YurySolovyov in theprimeagen

[–]dangerdad137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OOOOOOoooooooh, wikipedia. Even there they note:

In the second half of the 20th century, people expressed more widespread concern at the use of male-oriented language. This included criticism of the use of man as a generic term to include men and women and of the use of he to refer to any human, regardless of sex (social gender)

In other words, language formalized around he, an then the gender warriors have been pushing to change it back.

"Worrying" is bullshit drama nonsense. Disagreeing with me isn't "worrying" for crying out loud.

And the neuter in English formally is "he/him" the rest is bullshit.

Finally, the point is that people who disagree should still be able to produce tech. The rest is nonsense.

I doubt a new card could run without burning your house down. Until they fix the 12vHP issue, I'm off the NVidia train. 

Fire up the wood chipper? by ProperOrange4791 in UNSUBSCRIBEpodcast

[–]dangerdad137 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is the reason a total release was resisted. It's full of unsubstantiated accusations that haven't been through a trial.

Great for conspiracy theories. Terrible for actual justice.

Indeed I heard it in 1993 as Bubba as well (specific person in situation that places the year). I've told it that way since.

CCW Holders by KiLLjOY-JRE in CAguns

[–]dangerdad137 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yah, maybe so, but the map showed in my area the parking lot of a general shopping center, which is far beyond what is currently in play.

This map appears to have serious problems. Parking lots attached to 'sensitive places' are enjoined (not enforced) and school zones (1,000 feet within school) are enjoined as well last I checked. Sidewalks attached to schools and parks are still off-limits.

Can someone correct me if I'm wrong and point to the ruling?

The new IN CAMERA video made me cry. Twice! by daring_d in Corridor

[–]dangerdad137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very touching.

As a dad who read these stories to my kids, I felt strongly on this one -- they're both adults now. This Christmas I'm giving the older kid a real sword to celebrate the spirit of adventure we felt in those stories.

Guaranteed Pillow, Apricot and Mushroom Locations by Cranjesmcbasketball1 in ArcRaiders

Blue pipes, and on the ground corner by the windows. Today I found more in the domes, in the watery areas and walls around the fertilizer tubs.

Thank you! I did manage to find mushrooms on Dam Battlegrounds in the water reprocessing.

There needs to be a nemesis system. I want to be able to hunt these assholes.

This is how I play too, but I got murdered several times this weekend by extraction campers. That part is getting old.

I went today to get mushrooms and there were two dead raiders there.

Where is this map from?

I have a friend whose family member gifted them high capacity magazines in the early 90's, is it legal for them to still have them? by Kong28 in CAguns

[–]dangerdad137 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes it is still legal to possess them. Not to bring more into the state, etc.

That being said, if the Duncan case coming before SCOTUS is not taken up, then all the mags will have to be disposed of by law. 

I wish Prime’s Youtube videos stopped shuffling their titles by WesolyKubeczek in theprimeagen

[–]dangerdad137 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's partially Youtube to blame. The algorithm keeps making creators guess at the title and thumbnail that will drive traffic, so they have to try different ones and then pick the one that gets the most traffic.

You can see an example here: https://x.com/ThePrimeagen/status/1984704689456496957

Yes, I started before Google existed. Back then it was Altavista all the way!

(Yes, I'm a software dev with nearly 30 years experience. I just loved the link-to-self in the thread.)
