FYI the value size pizza is almost always the largest one they have.

I really don’t care man, everyone on the Internet needs sources for things that are pretty commonly known like they don’t also have keyboards.

I honestly almost didn’t bother searching for you this time either. Each thread on the Internet isn’t the beginning of some scientific argument like a lot of randos seem to think. I used to care a little more before I realized just how worthless and stupid providing sourced claims was.

Now I know, you aren’t changing most people’s minds. They’ll still think masks don’t work, that covid is caused by 5g, that the world is flat, etc etc etc.

I’m happy to just know I’m right and whistle along and take the downvotes on the chin because it’s all worthless anyway.

Many claim to want evidence just to give you a homework assignment, and won’t be persuaded a single iota by it.

Thirty seconds of searching yielded this: https://www.delish.com/food-news/a44040735/are-restaurant-sodas-dirty/

man you guys live in some gross areas. im not sure a kid could even reach the nozle in places near me.

You tell yourself whatever you need to, but they’ve done studies and those nozzles were almost always covered in poop bacteria from the people using them, the people “cleaning” them or a combo.

Don’t care. Self serve machines are basically covered in diarrhea anyway. Everytime I awkwardly and semi-accidentally turn something into a combo I grimace as I use the taps some kid was just wiping their snot on.

Just getting over a brief cold which could’ve easily been caused by using a self-serve tea machine at a habit burger.

I just want their MX keys and MX mouse to fucking switch computers together when you press the button on the keyboard. I don’t know why that’s so much to ask but apparently it is.

Corporations are all about stepping over dollars to pick up pennies.

In one example of this, during one job interview / recruitment process I essentially had to do all of the background check company’s work for them.

That makes literally no sense at all, and I’m not surprised when there’s cases of people just pretending to be doctors or whatever for decades. The “doctors” probably verified their own employment history and credentials.

Looks like AI crap to me

I haven’t played it but if that stuff is what you’re looking for I think baldurs gate 3 might be for you.

I’ve never really felt like the dialogue choices in any Bethesda game save maybe new vegas (which I don’t even think was technically a Bethesda game) had a lot of real impact on the game. In Skyrim I think there were maybe a handful of times that it mattered. Most times in those types of games I wind up exercising the entire dialogue tree because usually it lets you, and sometimes that’s the only way to get some side quest or whatever.

The combat in Bethesda games save some of the Fallout series is actually pretty bad IMO. In Skyrim, the combat doesn’t feel like combat at all and feels more like two characters swiping air near each other.

The thing that’s the most disappointing about most of these games to me is the squandered potential. At first there feels like there’s depth there, and if you try to get there it is shown to be a facade.

They have a lot of breadth to their games but IMO they’re as deep as a puddle.

I think that may be right for first person only, but many games that are largely played in third person fit the bill to me: Witcher 3, Elden Ring, Horizon, and even the latest Zelda games to an extent.

I know I’m leaving many other titles out here too, I’m just listing ones I’ve personally played.

No Man’s Sky is even close to being on the list IMO but it’s not quite RPG enough to fit in the same category.

Players are really kinda spoiled for choice when it comes to large, open world games with quasi RPG elements.

I’ve personally grown kinda sick of the genre.

There’s standouts of course (I actually think all the ones I listed are pretty excellent), but all of them require hundreds of hours to complete and I’m just sick of the same game type after a while.

But you don’t have many options if you enjoy open world fps RPGs, and Bethesda games are sometimes the only passable option.

This is only true if it’s literally true that it has to be “first person”. There are, in my opinion, way too many 3rd person semi-RPGs with a vast, open world that are very similar to Bethesda games. It has gotten to the point with me where there are only so many games like this I’ll even play, because they’re huge time drains and they come across as basically the same game with a different skin or setting.

It is gross, but I find the honesty a little refreshing.

Half of the time in meetings I wonder if we’re really trying to accomplish what we’re saying we are or if the whole thing is farcical and driven by ulterior motives.

I hate it for the refresh nag messages alone.

The default Firefox in Ubuntu is a snap and I only knew that because due to nagging and having to restart constantly while I was using it and had to learn about snaps and how to install Firefox without them on Ubuntu.

who cares as long as the numbers go up for a bit

Especially when you’re mostly stock compensated. Just make the numbers go up long enough to see your share prices soar, browse around for a different job in the meantime. Sell your stocks at a high, exit the company as it implodes behind you. Rinse and repeat.

I believe it used to be illegal to sell things at less than cost because the original monopolists did this too. Why did we make that legal again?

Look man I don’t really run windows anymore. I’m no longer a l33t power user like yourself. I found some microsoft learning bullshit article and sent it over because I didn’t have an agenda to make them use Linux or anything.

Look at this fucking thing: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-US/troubleshoot/windows-server/backup-and-storage/cannot-delete-file-folder-on-ntfs-file-system

If you want to apologize for a system that still has problems like this in 2023, feel free to waste your time. I’ll be here not having these 1990s problems on the regular because I don’t run this pile of crap anymore except on my gaming computer.
