So is oxygen

Disingenuous nonsense. It’s basically impossible to encounter a harmful concentration of oxygen in day to day life, while harmful amounts of sunlight are commonplace.

A lack of sunlight also doesn’t kill you in less than ten minutes.

Sounds way more interesting than most IT work as well. I’d definitely rather do some investigative work like this than a typical parade of password resets, email assistance, and software installations.

People complain when EA and Ubisoft do it too. As for Valve, what game that’s not on Steam requires a Steam login? That’s the issue here, being required to use their platform account when not on their platform.

Yes, they were, and that highlights the problem really. Nvidia’s grip on mind share is so strong that AMD releasing cards that matched or exceeded at the top end didn’t actually matter and you still have people saying things like the comment you responded to.

It’s actually incredible how quickly the discourse shifted from ray tracing being a performance hogging gimmick and DLSS being a crutch to them suddenly being important as soon as AMD had cards that could beat Nvidia’s raster performance.

A basic pocket calculator, or even graphing calculator, of the sort you’d expect to see in a high-school are not capable of providing the solutions to high-school level math problems. They’re beyond being given arithmetic with single numeric answers at that point.

In contexts where you do need numeric answers to a formula, such as in physics, you can absolutely use a calculator and that’s fine.

  • Striped white and blue
  • Male
  • Casual clothing, nondescript
  • About the size of a softball
  • Round wooden table

All of this came before I was asked about it.

Not sure you thought through your numbers if only because 95% of 10 means you can only have half a unit unoccupied.

I remember running screen irssi on a separate computer and sshing into the server, reconnecting the screen with irssi in it.

I still do that today.

Importantly, Little Caesar’s is also priced like it’s mediocre. You’re also in and out super quick if you just want a basic pizza from their menu with no alterations.

They’re good at what they do, and that’s basic, cheap, fast pizza.

I’m not depressed, at least I don’t think I am. I don’t really feel sad.

Society equating depression with sadness is a great disservice to the condition. It’s quite common for it to present as just … nothing. An emotional void where you might expect emotions to be. Things that would be expected to make you happy just don’t. Things that would make you sad, the same. Your feelings are depressed in the sense that their impact is just muted across the board.

A lack of motivation is also a very common indicator. You’re just missing the drive to do something because the emotional rewards that you expect to happen when you accomplish your goals just aren’t there.
