@Flyboy3520w @_njoi_ @0xDomitian At least when everything falls apart, if we survive, we'll be invaluable. Everyone else who wasted their lives doing intangible work will suffer, while it's just another day on the job for us. God calls men to toil by the sweat of our brow, it's fitting we see no Earthly reward.

@Flyboy3520w @_njoi_ @0xDomitian This shit is beyond frustrating to me. I work with retarded engineers every day that screw everything up. I personally know a tech illiterate project manager for a large tech company that will go unnamed. I work on his car and charge him exorbitant rates and he gladly pays lol.

>My job is hiring for a new position. >My manager interviews a White guy with a spotless resume and 7 years of relevant experience but says he's "not a good personality fit". >Second interview is with an indian guy. >Manager loves him and is moving him to round 2. Why are White men being locked out of the job market?

@horsepower My 05 TL has a "max speed" of 145mph. The 6 speed models don't have a governor. I got it up to 155 once in 6th with like 3500rpm to go before it started to spook me a little bit- I've refreshed it since then so I imagine it'd be a lot more stable lol

Google says the top speed of the 2008 Honda Fit is 118mph. I can confirm the 2008 Honda Fit can reach speeds above 118mph.

@vwlarkin @revenant_MMXX Imo HL2 falls off after Ravenholm and gets kinda ass until you get to the Citadel. Ep1 is boring. Ep2 picks back up again and feels refreshing compared to what you've just gone through. HL1 felt open ended and had a variety of enemies vs just striders and metro cops

@revenant_MMXX Anime VN lover coal from the depths of hell. For its time, HL2 aged so much better than the original Half-Life. Game starts to slow down during Ravenholm but then it gets good again.

This is the revisionism we need. Half-Life 2 is severely overrated and popularized some of the worst trends that we're still stuck with 20 years later

@504vol @WafflePopulist @enjoyer_liberty This is the truth. As a Texan though, I throw Lone Star on the list too

@WafflePopulist @enjoyer_liberty Banquet and high life are the only beers a man needs. Maybe a corona on the lake but that’s just paying your respects

the guy who made this chart has never drank beer in his entire life

@ActualEJMJensen @JoshuaBarzon As a Catholic I have a great appreciation for The Unseen Realm. The Church en masse has leaned towards hyper-rationalism - which has pushed those who've had "unexplainable" spiritual experiences away from the church - when Christianity itself is deeply mystical and supernatural.

Don’t know why the Heiser book is on this list. Five aberrant and/or heretical tomes vs Heiser’s challenge of the depths of the spiritual origins of God’s creation in Scripture? Heiser wasn’t “right” on everything, but he helped many Christians reconsider/rediscover the actual spiritual realm in OT Scripture. The Unseen Realm is not dangerous, aberrant, or heretical. Many parrot the fear and dislike some scholars had for Heiser. Broadly, we’ve been de-supernaturalized since the enlightenment.

You get to pick one book to never have been written. Which one are you picking?

@YoraLoreweaver @ShitpostRock2 And then the stupid character 15 minutes later about how people who do wheelies are cool. So do you hate motorcycles or not?

@ShitpostRock2 I watched gameplay last night. There is a fragment in the game "bought loudness is lame, you have to earn it!" and I found it hilariously hypocritical knowing how much they paid for everything...

I think everyone knows this is expensive but i don't think most people understand just how expensive it is A perpetuity license price ranges from $50K to $500K PER SONG, which puts the 26 songs alone at an estimated total of $1.3 million to $13 million. Nearly all the songs in the game are popular hits from the 80s-90s so it's safe to assume they are on the mid-higher end for pricing Mind you that Hollow Knight was made on a total budget of 100,000$-500,000$, that's enough money to buy the perpetuity license for one or two songs in Mixtape If i see ONE person call this shit ''Indie'' imma slap the fuck outta them

@Lopez_F5 @RevyDown @ShitpostRock2 Bruh even if the songs aren't all hits they're still by bands WITH hits. That directly influences licensing costs lol

@RevyDown @ShitpostRock2 I focused mainly on the comment that he made saying “nearly all the songs are popular hits” when they’re not. I really don’t care how much money it cost to license them.

@fleshsimulator My brother in Christ I think it's just a funny shitpost

I'm not gonna make fun of this for the gender bullshit but I am gonna roast it for being a homage poem that somehow doesn't understand the structure or meter of the original poem Let's just look at the first four lines of the original. We real cool. We --- ___ ____ --- Left school. We ---- ______ --- Lurk late. We ---- ___ --- Strike straight. We ------ ________ --- Each line starts and ends with a stressed syllable. The first one just has two unstressed syllables in between stresses instead of one. The knock off poem repeats the stress pattern of the first line (- _ _) for every sentence. But the original only uses that stress pattern for the first sentence, all following sentences are actually (- - _) Not to mention the grammar. Sentence (you know damn well what I mean by sentence here) number 1 of the original is "subject / preposition / adjective" and all following sentences are "subject / verb / adverb" and this structure goes out the window entirely I don't care if you wanna make genderfied versions of famous poems, but for the love of god at least do it correctly

@uNoWn_222 @PBVALVE Source 2 is an incredible engine for being built upon what's still essentially Quake engine bones. It just needs a killer app that isn't an esports title or VR game....

@PBVALVE Valves only limit is literally the Source engine

Ik this view from the citadel is inaccurate as all hell but i still love it

@ShitpostRock2 Read poorly translated Russian literature instead

''Bro just go read some books'' Meanwhile the newest James Bond book:

@aynekko I miss the era of my 9800GTX+... Fun fact, it could run GTA 5 in 1080p!

My game is based on OpenGL 3 and here is a screenshot of it running on Nvidia 9800 GTX+ from 2009. I never intended to support old hardware, but at some point I became curious how far back I can push it. 27 fps with everything maxed out, no visual glitches. #gamedev #indiedev

@_addogg @NINETIESWITCH I had a Gameboy Color through the GBA era, but stepped into the future with a PSP. Talk about a fucking upgrade, going from barebones games to a multimedia powerhouse that could download flash games, mp3s, movies... shit was next level

@NINETIESWITCH qualifiers are if you can quote early spongebob, learned how to ride a bike, and held a game boy advance

I feel like 26-29/30 year old Gen Z are the cool, in-the-know people because of the era of the internet they grow up in and having a semblance of analog interaction in childhood. the 19-23 year olds are WEIRD, extremists. They are the "cringe" millennials of the Gen Z

@RetiggaKachigga 120iq and I can't find it anywhere. I just want to actually ENJOY my substance of choice for dumbing myself down :(

Every retard you knew in high school just posted 6+ cases of bapple on their snapchat story

@GreenSmithy @ShitpostRock2 I tried to get into this one but couldn't get past the resolution and FOV issues, are there any fixes? Even messing with config files didn't really help besides getting the resolution proper, still had scaling issues. Might just have to use a 4:3 monitor to give it a fair shake

@ShitpostRock2 You would expected another mid-2000's "everything is depressing" slavic game to be trash too...

@timpostor @justalexoki During my catechesis, my priest brought up the point that you can yell at God, pray in anger and agony. He loves you and listens. I'd been there prior and felt guilty beforehand.

@justalexoki a lot of the ot almost gives us permission to "if he can crash out, so can I"

reading psalms and david was straight up just crashing out. mans really going through it

@catharticartie @Zandaos69 @LittenDraws @KaiserBeamz It is, retard. There's no benefit to circumcision

@Zandaos69 @LittenDraws @KaiserBeamz I mean then that would make circumcision mutilating someone despite the health benefits of circumcision

People forget that JonTron was seriously once considered to be the next AVGN before he went crazy. Every time he uploaded a video, an entire series of reaction gifs were born.

@DUSKdev I never played the final version of the game, but I remember playing the 2005ish beta version, which was very TimeSplitters-esque in terms of art direction, character design and humor. Absolutely love this era of FPS and need to give this one a fair shake!

This game rules btw

@Y2K_DOTCOM we never went anywhere

early 2000s desktops

@HeyUWithTheFace @DAKKADAKKA1 I don't even know how to do it anymore. Mine has been the bungie.net gorilla for ages now

You just don’t know what Uncs had. Everything was kino.
