Ironically I’ve found it’s harder for people to run away in remote, people don’t disappear from their desks and you don’t have to chase them down. If they don’t message back and it’s urgent, you call and if they don’t pick up a call and haven’t marked themselves as such something’s up. People are extremely dilligent about making sure they use status’ due to the knowledge that people will assume that way.

The idea of planting a potential scorched home only to find out it was the location of your favorite chalupa place later on

It’s great how this panel naturally evolved

Ignoring the success and failure of agile and waterfall. Waterfall was just a way more enjoyable development experience for me. That would probably change if the cycle was lower though. Also doesn’t help that many managers I’ve had don’t follow the rules of agile/SCRUM. Seems like people use it as an excuse to be able to change things on any given day but those cycles are supposed to be planned, not the plans.

Pursuing a voice to match that of “Her” is a very weird move considering the story it tries to convey

It’s pretty difficult to come up with an analogy that could bring an understanding without sounding insane. If the thought process is feeling de-humanised then examples would correlate best with physical attraction but that makes you sound insane because it kind of is.

The problem is you can also make the villain a manchild whos sick of people not agreeing with him and the internet will call him based

To be fair there was a large amount of time (2010s at least) where vegans weren’t even trying to be appealling. It was either. Stereotypical vegan dishes but even more limited or extremely bad vegetarian meat. Vegetarian meat has improved a lot and more importantly vegan food is represented as less one note.

Don’t think I’m strong enough to give up dairy but respect to those who can do so without being elitist

Moreso then “going full Nazi” just spreading misinformation on sensitive topics. Feels like a pretty good safeguard until people realize that AI is a not only not the most reliable source of information but worse a full blown liar in its current implementation

Nearly spat out my drinks at the leap in logic

Yeah, it’s just not really common knowledge to the same style. Seems like most house cat videos are Scottish folds

My brain just went down a rabbit hole of of breeds vs strays and whether it’s fucked or not and how the world would look if people treated cat breeding like they did dog breeding and how things would change.

I had this comment open for like 20 minutes

I dunno, rent is pretty cheap on mars from what I hear…

The only way to win the argument is to come up with an association that has nothing to do with computers at all.

I use Linux Mint because I like Mint Ice Cream

I’m sitting in bed saying saying British trying to figure out why we say it the way we do. the best way to describe it I found is we say Brit but only the first half of the t so maybe Brid-ish is the phonetic way.

Saying they ruined the combat is an incredibly hottake

The only time I see it is when they are defending themselves from zoomers

Feels correct to suggest platformers as a human game. Human wowed by jumping between two platforms while the elves are like “you can do that on between trees in real life” dwarves “you ever jumped a fissure?”

“I pet the cat mimic with my other arm”

The benefit of homebrew. None of these need to be considered an actual restriction by the PC. Where X is the disability

• Paladin: Oath of Restriction: You lose X in favour of your patrons
• Warlock: Any pact: Patron takes X and wishes to see how you fair in life
• Sorcerer: Any: Born with X but also born with innate magic powers

All of these have a reason to have a special Counter Remove Curse item.

A more general idea, cursed heart causes X but if curse is removed host dies.

I guess a fucker could still steal the homebrew item but if you’re doing that much to negate it that’s a player problem. No reason an enemy would attempt to remove a PC curse unless the knew the affects of the last one.

The other obvious choice is to play it like real life and refuse the help because its part of your identity
