Oh hey it’s me

I collected the free games almost religiously for maybe a couple of years, mostly so I had something of a backup library in case something terrible happened to Steam

I stopped after realising I was literally only interacting with that store literally to collect the games, I don’t think I put a single minute into any of them

Get knocked out in Tesco again?

unless you just aren’t taking care of yourself.

I think frankly, the tiring parts of music festivals for many people would very squarely fall into this category

Am I getting my parts from Ea-Nasir

Salt and pepper usually, the nutmeg not so much actually, but I pretty much only make it when I’m making a lasagne or as a step on the way to cheese sauce.

What’s your best dish where it’s the star?

I honestly struggle to understand people who say stuff like this

Like, do they honestly not have anything productive they would choose to do if they didn’t have anything else taking up all their time? What do they envision they do with themselves?

We’re humans, humans innately get a kick out of building and creating things, that’s the human nature part. When we don’t experience that, it’s usually down to having the energy ground out of us from our current work or die existence.

Probably as a learning exercise so they know what developing and shipping for that platform is like.

Given they’re currently building a similar product, makes sense to see what the competition is up to

Bechamel is kinda mid without something else going on

Gonna point out this post is from over a decade ago

Things were still pretty bad back then, but people did still typically move out of their parents’ place at that point

No idea on the loss side of things tbh, though given it’s AI based, I’m assuming it can’t be truly lossless

to use a toy example […] for simple maths

I know, I just picked easy numbers for the sake of discussion. The actual data rate is not important to this particular discussion.

washed out - too late starts playing

Why did my dumb ass think there were lasers photoshopped in for a second

You can’t break the system if it breaks you first

Yeah…

They’re not always bad though

It’s actually a subgenre of reggaeton

You’ve gotta look at the magnitude of difference here, to use a toy example:

Let’s use a memory data rate of 1GB/s for simple maths

8GB of uncompressed textures getting moved would take us about 8 seconds

The compressed stuff at <1GB is going to be done in less than 1 second.

As long as the decompression process doesn’t take another 7 seconds to complete it’s going to be more performant

Edit: typo

Lmao what a toxic piece of shit

Privacy is something everyone deserves, not something only criminals want

Well I’ve got no idea who that is, but if so it kinda doesn’t really change the point even if the motivation is potentially a bit suspect

People should be free to wear clothing that doesn’t break any laws without getting even a modicum of grief from pearl clutchers, particularly when those people spend their energy on that rather than more real problems.

A broken clock can be right twice twice a day and all that

For a brief second I thought that was a baguette and you’d invented beans in toast and my British self was about to scream in ecstacy

Edit: Actually you know what I’m going to Tesco tomorrow and making the branston filled baguette a reality
