I took 2 weeks off from my high pressure corporate job and my laptop isnt with me. This week I’m spending time with my family out in the woods, and next week I fly home to a lovely staycation. I haven’t had more than a long weekend since Christmas so this is nice.
Same on Witcher III. I’m the target audience of that game - I love RPGs of all kinds, have played all the classic series like TES, Baldurs Gate, Planescape, Icewind Dale, Dragon Age, you name it. I even play ttrpgs multiple times a week.
I wanted to like Witcher III so bad that I forced myself all the way through the game to an optimal ending. But I just never started enjoying it. The world just feels… Flat. Fake. You do exactly what CD Projekt Red envisions or you hit a stone wall of empty game world.
Despite the skill trees and inventory and all of it, it just doesn’t feel like an RPG at all. It feels like a Disney ride on rails.
There’s a board game where you play nature spirits like this mountain called Spirit Island. Highly recommend.
You should give a shit, because it means now the library has to waste its money cleaning it, instead of funding programs or new books. Libraries losing funding makes the world worse. These people made the world worse.
Send me your address and I’ll come spraypaint your house. If you don’t, you’re complicit in the system and you like genocide.

How about I spray “Free Palestine” into your fucking mouth? You wouldn’t mind right? I’m sure you’d be talking about that.

To reinforce the shift in company culture toward “empowering and rewarding every employee to find security issues, report them,” and “help fix them,” Smith said that Nadella sent an email out to all staff urging that security should always remain top of mind.
Yeah that ought to do it.
Nope.
“If you don’t like it don’t fly”
Seriously just shut up.
Edit: LMAO just saw your other comment where you actually said this sincerely. You’re a parody of yourself.
Li Bai - Quiet Night Thought
床前明月光
疑是地上霜
举头望明月
低头思故乡Before my bed bright moonlight pools
Almost like frost on the ground
Raising my head I see the shining moon
Bowing my head I think of home
Not exactly sure how they made it, but this sounds like “generative ambient” to me.
People make music that sounds similar to this using something called a “modular synthesizer” - its basically a big rack of individual synthesizers that each do one thing, and people plug them together to create “patches”. Then, they run a wave generator through them to generate ambient music that doesn’t actually require anyone to “play” anything during the piece.

This is because most East Asian languages actually don’t conjugate their verbs at all!
In Chinese, for example, you always use the same exact verb, you just add extra sounds called “particles” to the sentence to contextualize what you’re saying.
e.g. “I’m going to the store” in Chinese is 我(wǒ - ‘I’)去(qù - ‘go’)商店(shāng diàn - ‘store’). I go store.
To say “I went to the store”, you don’t change “去/qù”. Instead you still just say “I go store”, but you add “了/le” to the end of the sentence. “Le” is a particle that means “to finish; to be completed”.
So to say “I went to the store”, you literally say “I go store (past particle)”, and the listener knows that the statment “I go store” already happened and ended - past tense.
This is why native English speakers often think of this type of grammatical mistake when they think of common English mistakes that East Asian language native speakers make.
Lemmy has its own version of that with self declared “leftists”
