They're keeping the layout and "adding more storage", even though you can easily buy a 1TB SD card for your current Switch. So, in all honesty, it's just a Switch with a bigger screen. At least on a Steam Deck you can play an order of magnitude more games on it, with -much- better variety.

That's because doing so would inhibit the foothold the Republican agenda has in store for the American populace.

Where I live, more and more "Trump Vance 2024 MAGA" signs are planted in front of homes every day. The only people supporting that citrus shit-stain are too far gone to correct their misconceptions.

A popular example of a four-dimensional polytope is the Tesseract, which is just a 4D cube. Four dimensional and beyond polytopes have what is called a hypervolume. This can be calculated by using Lebesgue measure, which is beyond my understanding of mathematics.

Fun fact: four-dimensional analysis is common in the development of modern parallel supercomputing!

Back to the era of Exile, motherfuckers!

The brain child of Zach Householder, this one exemplifies the atrocities one may commit when there is no other choice.

I appreciate your candor, I had a feeling it was cock and bull but you've answered my question fully.

Thank you for extrapolating for them.

By "good" I mean code that is written professionally and concisely (and obviously works as intended). Apart from personal interest and understanding what the machine spits out, is there any legit reason anyone should learn advanced coding techniques? Specifically in an engineering perspective?

If not, learning how to write code seems a tad trivial now.

 

It's tiring business being Quality Assurance Analyst for Sunbathers & Co. The pay is modest, but the company benefits are oh-so nice.

I can't seem to understand it. Day in and day out most of us wake up to clock-in for some bullshit product that creates waste and inflates the pockets of some bullshit board member? What the fuck is that? Don't give me the productive member of society rhetoric. How am I creating benefit to the world while simultaneously destroying it? You don't need that new model car. You don't need a smart-oven. Just like the livestock industry, we are born and urged to consume. We keep getting bigger, taller, stronger - but for what? We don't have any actual predatory threats except for ourselves, so why do we insist on strong-arming one another? The convenient excuse of the Human Condition? We developed critical intelligence and dextrous motor skills to engorge ourselves to extinction? Stupid. Stupid. STUPID.

Why does crunching imaginary numbers for a socially-engineered financial index get you "paid" more than feeding your local population, or delivering health-critical mail to someone's front door? Our existence collectively has placed our value in all the wrong places. I suppose Man's need to dominate all things prevails; our planet included. When will we stop raping our soil of cash crops to feed an industry that poisons our wells every day? There is no bastion for any precious material on Earth. Especially so for the hope of future generations.

The worst part? It's that I know I am part of the problem. I don't want to lose my comforts. So, I go back to my bullshit product and make wealth for some bullshit board member. This way, some day, I'll gain that 15% of my actual life to live with a neat variety of health issues to physically limit everything I've wanted to do in life before that moment. All the while, said board member will be able to replace internal organs in order to enjoy their sports yachts for much longer than I can even dream of.

Life is great. Thanks for listening.
