There might be others, but The Dagger of Xian plotline in Tomb Raider II is a little "woo woo Chinese mysticism". You plunge it into your heart and turn into a dragon.

I'm not offended by it but I'd imagine that's not the kind of thing you'd write in a video game today.

Its Missouri, so...

The three known instances of censorship collusion that happened at that time concern the Canadian authorities asking Facebook to “remove users’ posts for ‘disinformation about lifting a COVID restriction’,” RebelNews now writes.

All you need to know. Fuck off with the right wing rage bait.

I love dipping grilled cheese in coarse spicy mustard.

NYC is such a corrupt place. You feel it in every facet of life when you live there. The average NYC resident has a long commute with regular delays while the MTA eats billions of tax dollars per year. Renters get gouged by slumlord landlords and pay a 15% real estate broker fee for the privelege. The NYPD spends $121 mil in taxpayer dollars per year to operate lawlessly while solving fewer crimes and locking up anyone who tries to call them out for it.

Lemmy kept corrupting my images so I gave up. But every time I see one of your posts going forward.... giddy up.

I enjoy imagining what I would do if money were no object. But agreed, I find what others actually do to be profoundly boring.

Yeah. This isn't funny. Its just shitty, annoying behavior.

It looks more like Cotton to me.

It sounds like you've got a good manager, so hopefully they won't hold that against you. This is the reality of oncall - it sucks!

When you get woken up in the middle of the night, of course you're going to be more tired the next day. I'm the same as you - I can't fall back asleep if its early morning so I normally just stay awake and am tired that day. You shouldn't feel guilty for being at 1/2 capacity after working all night to solve your employer's problems!

I tell my engineers - if you get paged off hours, however much time you spend resolving the issue, take that time back from the next workday.

I also practice what I preach - if I get paged at 3am and work on the issue until 5am, I'll come in 2 hours late or leave 2 hours early.
