Exactly, I assume it’s an insecurity thing.
“If I just keep the focus on the bad things other people did, nobody will notice the bad things I do”
I know that I was an absolute piece of shit in my teens/early twenties, luckily social media wasn’t around to document that and I’ve slowly changed into less of a piece of…

It that’s the case, pull a more recent tweet.  If you have to go back 10 years to find a poor taste tweet, it’s a good sign that the person has changed (or at least learned to hide their isms).

Funny that this doesn’t mention the largest reason: there are a lot of people outright looking for things that can be deliberately taken out of context and misconstrued to say they’re offended and thus show how much they hate witches. Probably the nastiest part is that they’ll all glom on to the attack and accuse…

God help me (and my family) if I’m ever in a publicly visible position where people give a shit what college me/me 5 years ago/me 1 year ago wrote somewhere. I’ve laughed at and retold countless inappropriate jokes (read: gay/racist/sexist/etc), I’ve made broad assumptions based on few facts, called people…

That flashing taillight is a brilliant feature and should be standard. It would be interesting to know the level of deceleration G’s that will activate a higher frequency flashing rate.

Somewhat related - Some LED lights on cars (like the DRLs) have to be able to dim, so they are pulse-width modulated (PWM) with settings for high and low current. Basically, they’re flashing at a high frequency, about 120 Hz. But when you, say, record video of the same care at a high frame rate, you’ll be able to see…

It wasn’t exactly shocking. “Maybe a Jedi will sense him and come looking”. Gee, how many Jedi were out in the wild following Return of the Jedi? The only real question I had was whether he’d be off-screen, face covered, re-cast, or, as in fact happened, straight out of the uncanny valley.

It’s kind of weird and confusing me too. The person physically standing there was Max Lloyd-Jones. Then Hamill’s face was superimposed and de-aged I guess? I associate de-aging with altering the appearance of someone who is physically present, but maybe it’s a broader term? Lloyd-Jones/Hamill’s face had a slightly…

Don’t tell me you use support items when appropriate and get rid of equipment you don’t need. You’re definitely not playing it right. You’re supposed to hoard everything on the slim chance you’ll need it later.

My hoarding habits are too ingrained after FO3, New Vegas, and FO4. I went through my storage chests in my settlement in my current playthrough of 4 just out of curiosity to see how much stuff I’ve accumulated by level 16.

Another big issue with shame is that it can create a purity spiral, in which people make up more and more standards to further the amorphous “value” just to be the one on the shaming side rather than the shamed, and it often goes into an orthodoxy that nobody believes or is willing to admit non-belief in. While YA…

The problem with using negative reinforcement is that it damages your relationship with the person. If they feel negative around you, they are less likely to spend time with you and less likely to listen.

Note: This attitude might score you points in the GMG echo chamber, but is not helping your cause otherwise. This “Jesus freak” gladly pulled the lever for Trump again this year. Not because I like him, but to ram your shitty bigoted attitude right back up your ass.

America is not like other western countries. I’m not saying that to waive a flag and shout “Yee Ha,” I’m just stating a fact. Our cultural emphasis is on the individual, not the collective, and thus Warren and Sanders really are on the far left here, no matter where they would be in other western countries.

You make some good points. Boeing had zero fire under their ass to actually deliver a system, and some rumors I’ve heard is that part of that is that NASA was getting the credit for “building a big ass rocket” and not Boeing, who is always desperate for good publicity and thus more industry control. It took SpaceX to…

I have a fairly high end system. I bought Planet Coaster only to find out that the high end system also would require a new video card. When I looked at a couple other games out that I was considering, the video card required for the game I owned was already superseded by a new generation (within a year).

Can’t tell if you are sarcastic or not, but unfortunately yes, it will happen. Not that space exploration is a bad thing, the deep-space potential of the SLS is certainly welcomed. There’s just the tiny problem of the SLS cost. Each launch vehicle is USD$2 billion to build (yes, you read that right, 2 Big Bs) and…

To throw my unwanted opinion in the ring, I actually do agree with Trump saying that NASA (and really SLS) was a shit show 4 years ago. Now, I don’t think the turnaround is at all a result of Trump, but rather the progress of SpaceX.

It takes the right mix of a good narrator and a fairly fast paced book to work for me. There have definitely been audio books I haven’t been able to get into that I’m pretty sure I would have loved on paper (and one I actually bought on paper after two hours of the audiobook).

could even be 16 if both sides of the calliper have pistons. jesus imagine that, 16 pot calliper. I would not want to get the air out of those lol
