Ever seen a Japanese sports car go from 0 to 6 in 15 seconds? Honk at me when I'm on the line and the light just turned green and I'll show you
Ya know, I had a thought about this yesterday. The sound of fireworks isn't traumatic for me, but it's easier to tell people that as the reason I won't celebrate the 4th rather than telling them I'm deeply disgusted by our actions on both the global and domestic stage and I am ashamed to be an American, not proud. It's easy to say here on lemmy, but no amount of "being a hero" in the past will prevent the communities veterans tend to be part of from ostracizing you if you question the myth of American greatness.
You sound more like a Rage Tuned File Monster, or rtfm for short
You pretending it's unprecedented is privileged and incorrect. This the first time since the Japanese internments that white or white adjacent people have regularly suffered illegal search and seizure and been made to feel unsafe in public in the US. The person you responded to brought up plenty of precedent for stuff that's as bad or almost as bad that has been accepted treatment of non-white people in the states since it became a country. You don't get to accuse somebody of being disingenuous because they care about the plight of people you seem to be happy to marginalize by claiming and defending that this is unprecedented. The only thing unprecedented about the current state of affairs is that white people are suffering because of it too
I'm playing video games all day instead of getting a job because I'm done supporting fascism, you jackbooted fuck. I legitimately view wasting your investment in me as an engineer as the best use of my time that I have the energy and emotional capacity for right now. Not being able to move to another country won't stop me from being part of the brain drain.
Those abs need a marble statue, not a shirt
I'm one of them, haha. My archives are nice and organized, but anything related to a current project I'm working on either lives on the desktop or lives at ~, depending on which machine I'm using. Automated output type files go into a structure (like any kind of processed or cleaned data), but figures? References? Drafts? FFA on the desktop. For whatever reason I just cannot function with an organized workspace
Contradiction isn't nuance
Seriously, why would anybody bother putting their papers in a folder when the desktop is just right there?
I can only claim partial credit for this one, but it holds a lot of meaning for me. Part of an old engineering notebook of mine that has since been repurposed into a sketchbook
Not sure if this comm was made specifically for the person who made it to post their work or for any post with the same general style. If its the former feel free to remove this post or I can take it down.
These are my unclassified test notes from a radar test event I ran a long time ago, along with 8 hours worth of doodling that happened while the event ran
This is my inventory after killing goo. XPD-HJC-HGR if anybody wants to play this amazing seed on a class where +1 strength ring and uncursed greataxe by floor 3 aren't wasted. The mimic tooth was a random trinket choice and I don't know if that is tied to the seed, but everything else is in visible rooms in the first 4 floors
Meme of two women fighting while a man smokes from a pipe in the background.
The women fighting are labeled "mathematicians defining pi" and "engineers just using 3 because it's within tolerance"
The man smoking is labeled "astrophysicists" and the pipe is labeled "pi = 1"
Spirit bow has blooming and speed augment. Spawn grass and burn everything at range with the blazing crossbow buffed darts and sniper's mark ability, artifacts and haste armor ability to get away or run through the fire. This build did monstrous aoe damage, spawning massive blazes nearly every fight
The real star of this run was the parchment scrap. Since the update where energizing potions and scrolls identifies them, it feels very viable to identify all of the extra scrolls and potions from the first 4 floors by energizing them and pumping that into the parchment scrap. 10x enchantment/glyph find and 0x curse find on armor and weapons is a wild effect to have before floor 5. In the posted run I got a lucky weapon early with this strategy which snowballed into RoW drops, making a build that felt very strong starting on floor 4 and continuing for the rest of the game
I learned everything I know about combine harvesters from The Wurzels
