I’m living this right now. The lead programmers are long gone for a setup that uses Python, C++, and Linux. The only other guy who knows it is pulled to three other projects and I only have a C++ class taken over 15 years ago under my belt. I’m somehow expected to decipher this shit and explain the function of a few dozen variables and it’s going as well as one might expect.

It’ll be as cathartic as it’ll be catastrophic. I’m personally looking forward to the devastation this folly will bring, if only to see PC parts makers come back to the consumer market with hat in hand.

“24 hour odor protection” in deodorants.

I’m enjoying every free packet of ketchup I can still get. Some places are now starting to charge for cups of water or BBQ sauce packets.

Looks like the device was made using an Adafruit board. You can barely see the logo.

Where’s phosphoric acid? That’s the OG teeth solvent.

Pretty sure Trump doesn’t know how to ride a bike to begin with.

I’d love for a facetious politician to introduce a bill that has universal healthcare but only for white citizens, just to see how popular it would actually be among the GOP crowd.

One of my old jobs had a pallet full of perfectly good PSUs, o-scopes, H bridges, and a bunch of miscellaneous data cables. They were all gonna be trashed either because their projects were cancelled or had a minor flaw they didn’t want to fix. My buddies and I rescued a bunch of equipment before the company padlocked it. My advice is be discreet. Companies hate it when people recover shit they throw out whether it be perfectly good equipment or food.

I received an instant pot like that once. The fear of it blowing up from a slight oversight was enough motivation to return it to sender.

Indika is a fucking trippy experience. It definitely stands out from the others in this list in a very good way.

Politicians should just avoid trying to pander to gamers. Democrats are even more cringe when they try.

Edit: I guess people here like their “how do you do, fellow kids?” vibe.

Maybe the next iteration can have some seeds mixed in the payload to sprout little trees and plants over the wreckage.

GameStop as I knew it from a few years ago is dead. Now that almost all games are digitized, its stores only carry a handful of discs and cartridges with barely enough to cover half a wall in shelves. The rest of the store is mired in miscellaneous pop culture crap like Cowboy Bebop T shirts, pop figures, and some various other knick knacks. It can’t live up to its name so it might as well shuffle off from store fronts and on to the collective memory of gaming enthusiasts.

I wouldn’t be surprised he already has a sex scandal covered up at this point. That family is beyond reprehensible.

They’re the Controlled Opposition Party after all.

So a reincarnation based religious system that spans countless realities, creatures, and millennia is somehow beholden to this reality’s 76 year old country led by a dictator? Makes sense.

You bring up a good point with culture and expectations. The job required occasional unpaid overtime since it’s a salaried position.

This country has a major reactionary problem. Too often we see blue and red waves as a reaction of either conservatives shitting on Democrat presidents on TV/social media or reality punching common people in the gut under Republican administrations. There has to be a way to keep voter’s disgust of Republicans in place year over year.
