About 1.5km, literally on the same street as us it was a straight shot. On their way back they didn't have to deal with finding parking but they did deal with rush hour traffic so that straight shot was still longer than walking

My ex spouse is like this drove me batshit. Going to where they worked that's a 15 minute walk I'd just walk and they'd drive, by the time they found parking I was already inside sitting. Sometimes parking was so far away they'd end up walking nearly 10 minutes anyways. Years of trying I could never convince them to just walk to work. I never understood it, still don't, why would they prefer that?

They're very fashionable these days

I don't want to be going through therapy while I'm lathering up my asshole. I wait for the weekend to do mushrooms about it

economy to the brink

bubble burst

going to decimate the US

Please, stop, I can only get so wet

On a more serious note I think not only will this happen at some point, there is no way to avoid it. Either capitalism continues unchecked until we wipe ourselves out, or we fight to replace it. Even if we do keep capitalism and somehow don't wipe ourselves out it naturally creates a cycle of societal abuse so these bubbles and depressions will continue

I think of hill climbing algorithms a lot. Basically you look in your immediate vicinity and if you see something better you go that way, and you keep doing that until every direction you look is down meaning you've reached the top of your hill. The problem is you can't necessarily tell if you're at the highest peak or not just that you're at a peak. To get out of that local peak and to something better you have to go downhill. Most systems that seek incremental improvements have this problem. I think we did the peak capitalism already and it is time to go downhill in search of a better peak. "It gets worse before it gets better"

In my opinion, the best we can do at this point is prepare for the global shitshow as best we can. Build community, move away from capitalism and the US, then try and stay course toward something better while it is going to shit around us. It would be great if we could prepare enough to prevent as much suffering as possible but we've gotten backed into a corner and are on a very serious timer before the planet is broken for good; so I don't know what the balance is between preparing and ripping off the bandaid

As a game dev, that sounds so complicated to implement. Showing numbers for what is currently happening sure, predicting what will happen and graphs and whatnot? I hope I'm not the one doing that

That's a hella big Böotes; universe has serious cake

But actually on a real note do you think humans would have even invented telescopes that good by then if we were in the center void like that? How can you tell if a telescope is getting better if you don't have any stars to compare to, maybe just seeking out sharper images of planets we would have stumbled into it eventually? Also that would mean that the planets would be really incredibly noticable in the night sky

Space is big like really big. It would take well over an hour to walk from here to the moon and the moon is really close

Relatively new still to Linux gaming, what does your routine list look like?

Are these the motherboards?

When I bought a small office laser printer for making stickers it took me four years before I needed to change the cartridges. It only came with those partially full ones too. Unless you're printing dozens of full color sheets a day the cost of cartridges is likely a minimal consoderation
