Nightmare of Druaga is a game on the PS2. In it, you are the chosen warrior wearing the golden sword and armor given to you by God. Here's the thing: The golden armor given to you by god has a def power of 1 and literally the first thing a slime drops will be better, and the same with the golden sword given to you by God.
Playing this game, I decided that "God is a dick" is a video game meme.

@dick I still ask myself to this day why you'd do this.
Gotta claim the Ls just as I claim the Ws. I thought I was going to be right on this one, but I was wrong and it's been very entertaining. Well worth someone else spending 45 billion dollars.
It's not a bad time to be expanding while everyone else is shrinking, but it seems to me that their business goals aren't too realistic. Increasing staff by 3 times and doubling revenue during a global recession? Seems to me they'd really have to have something special beyond the latest buzzwords.
I want to know how it runs in -40 when it actually gets cold out.
And I mean living in -40, I don't mean being brought out of a heated room temperature garage for a 20 minute run around a track. If I need to heat my garage all winter to have an EV I'm not coming out ahead carbon-wise.

Because the guy was lead counsel for the company itself in addition to being a former FBI director.
Which to me says he should be jailed, given that old twitter was a cesspool of Cheese Pizza

I've been living my best life on searx on every device. Why bother with one search engine when you can use 10?
I think it's more about design constraints. What is it you're trying to accomplish? If reliability and maintainability aren't on the radar, then your design will be fundamentally different than if they are. If you're trying to minimize the amount of material because that's technically "green" too then you end up with a completely different design. If you're trying to minimize the amount of waste material then you end up with a completely different design. If you're trying to minimize the amount of energy used in manufacture then you'll end up with a completely different design.
Happens a lot in our hard goods like washers, dryers, refrigerators. Instead of designing something to run reasonably well for 50 years, we design something that'll run with slightly less electricity for 5 years then need to be replaced.

"you see, where is the Nazis wanted to murder the light-skinned people who controlled the banks and the media, we millennials want to murder the white people who control the banks and the media. Clearly this means that there is nothing racist about us, and we are nothing like the Nazis"
It's kind of impressive how stupid we are.

The one thing I find ironic is that in the millennials are constantly talking about the nazis, and they don't seem to realize that uncritically doing whatever the establishment tells you to do is exactly how you end up with the nazis. Or the soviets. Or Mao's Great leap Forward and cultural revolution. In spite of the fact that history tells us they are the bad guys, they keep assuming that because they are not specifically the Nazis they are the good guys.
Gen alpha will probably be the generation that picks up the pieces. The millennials are just boomer lite, they hate the boomers because they see themselves, the zoomers will be the people hit hardest by all the bad decisions, they're on only fans right now ending their futures for current monetary gain, and it'll be gen alpha who grow up seeing the millennials and seeing the zoomers and rebelling when they see what is coming in their future.
(At least, one can hope)

Hah most computer folks didn't even have giga anything on their radar that year. I think I had a 300MB hard drive and the question was "what will you do with that much space?!?"
I've been reading Beowulf to my son, and I know he tolerates it rather than really liking it -- I don't like it either but I think it's important. My wife goes "he doesn't like that!" Expecting me to stop and I just go "I know" and keep reading anyway lol
Just like what you said, parents need to be parents and that means doing what's right instead of what's easy.

I think part of the problem is that the kids are being told they have no future, that everything is doomed, that they won't live to have kids and if they do their kids won't live to have kids...
It's all bullshit. Life is harder than it was for the boomers, but history is written by those who show up, and those who show up do have a chance at succeeding.
On the other hand, the first enlightenment happened in part because people stopped meeting in the beer halls and started meeting in the coffee houses. The sober mind is critical to coming up with the next generation of greatness.
We're chemically more sober than ever before, less alcohol than any other generation for example, but we're intellectually intoxicated thanks to a finely tuned machine intended to be spiritual soma.
