Run by the OG mothposter.

It was probably the “gold standard” modern port of the OG DooM/DooM II/Hexen etc games. There are some other source ports made for multiplayer, some made for cranking the graphics up to 11, some made to ensure exact match to original engine behavior for speed running purposes, but GZDoom was kind of the standard the community had settled on that did enough of all of that to be good.

There are full “boomer shooter” style indie games built off of it and the expanded features it offers, like 3D model support and greatly improved lighting. Then the lead dev went a little bonkers (I don’t know the specifics) and people forked it into this and have kept improving it.

Book good

Paid to states over ten years.

Oh boy yes, but mostly early internet memes, when 4chan was the bleeding edge of internet “culture”. Shit like advice animals were spammed to hell and back until they got enough natural momentum.

I think more devs making and hosting tools like this need to get into the type of layered defensive hosting infrastructure that pirate sites use. Hard to get a c&d if they can’t track you down.

God I hated questions like this in school. There’s always something specific the teacher is looking for, but nothing to point you towards it.

Overly online A(u)DHD person “Get mental health care instead of latching onto an online personality stereotype” challenge! Level: impossible.

(All meant in good fun. Everyone has a different path to better. I seriously do recommend therapy if you can find a good therapist though. I maybe could have worked through the shit they’re helping me with on my own, but I’ve made more progress towards who I want to be in a few months than I have in years.)

You can’t be serious, or you must not support Windows much.

I don’t think much of my workplace’s Windows desktop “engineer” but even they’ve put together (and keep updated) an image that can get from blank drive to fully installed, updated, baseline programs for our company installed, all settings tweaked to get rid of 90% of the dumb Windows bloat (have to leave the shit the execs like in place) in 30 minutes unattended.

The server builds my team oversees are 10 minutes setups, if that.

Like, I’ve been desktop support, and installing and configuring the department specific programs could be such annoying shit that you’d end up saving more time reimaging when something fucked up than to try and fix it, but the initial OS install was rarely the issue. Maybe for the first few days with entirely new hardware while we figured out the right drivers, but that was it.

Linux is leagues better than Windows, but some of this shit I keep seeing in these Linux communities is batshit. You personally not being familiar with Windows isn’t a reason it sucks, any more than people saying Linux is complicated is a reason for them to hate Linux.

That’s still rule of thumb on Windows. Push the updates into the install media in advance and save the trouble later. Guess since Linux updates tend to be easier they just stopped?

It could be done in 15 minutes with Windows as well, if you actually knew what you were doing. Hell, I’ll give you 40 minutes if you know what you’re doing and don’t have proper tools already setup.

Windows is a shitshow, but your personal lack of familiarity isn’t evidence of that, lol.

They also adjusted the color to make it all more flesh colored.

Sounds like you’ve had a streak of shit therapists. Also, it’s supposed to be entirely confidential unless you give them reason to believe you are an immediate danger to yourself or others.

I’m pretty sure there’s a specific Bomberman console release you can emulate with 8 players.

You could also emulate Smash Bros Ultimate, as it has 8 player support. Might be boring to just play a Switch game many people have though. Maybe look into mods for it?

And you can always use co-optimus to search for stuff. Just set At least 8 players, couch co-op in the filters: https://www.co-optimus.com/system/4/pc.html

Bill would be one of the first to go through. No hesitation.

That seems like an awfully convenient way to smear the stop killing games movement.

I ended up on a project to integrate an HR system with Active Directory.

Did we technically have to insist that the HR system became the source of truth and we would never make manual changes on the AD side? No.

Did we have to use the new integration and automated new hire account creation process to punish the managers who kept trying to get new hires processed at 4pm Friday to start Monday, claiming no way to rush the processing so the previous “rule” about lead time was now set in stone? No.

Did the integration actually force the reorganization of our Active Directory to clean up a decade of band aid fixes layered on top of each other? No.

Did we have to finally implement a proper data retention process including deletion of former user accounts and mailboxes for the integration to work, along with formal methods to request temporary access to old mailboxes that included an automatic time limit? No.

Did my boss and I use it as a golden opportunity to push all of the above and more into official standards, saving an absurd amount of man hours since? Fuck yes.

Not all of it was tech debt, sure, but in short you should use a available opportunities to improve as much as you can, instead of always defaulting to “I do exactly what was requested”. If for no one else, do it to save yourself pain in the future.

Yeah, far_university got it. Infrasound is what I was referring to specifically, and your comment has me wondering now if there’s been any attempts to measure for it around wind turbines too.

The known negative health effects from the noise pollution around data centers are bad enough, but there’s evidence of further effects than that due to the infrasound as well, which isn’t immediately obvious as it’s not within human hearing range

At least something made them reconsider. Land zoned for housing development near where I live just got abandoned after multiple years owned by some shitheads who were suing the local government for not allowing them to turn it into a ground shipping hub in the middle of miles of residential land (broken up with the occasional school and strip mall type businesses), only for the land to be picked up by a group trying to build a data center claiming it would bring significant jobs to the area.

I’ve been to a few data centers for work. Job hubs they ain’t.

I’ll make sure to leave plenty of illegal pollution in my surroundings, and to emanate sub-audible frequencies harmful to human health for a multiple mile radius.

Precariously balancing a terrible mobius strip of circular financing that itself props up the majority of the US stock market might be a little tough though. Anyone have any tips?
