Definitely boycott paying real money for lootboxes or games with real money lootboxes.

If you’re not paying, then it’s just a factor to consider, the companies won’t care about you much

I got one used, and not specifically because it was curved, I just wanted a monitor and it was available for a good price. The curve is mild and the monitor is only 24" so I don’t notice it very much. The monitor feels a bit flatter to my eyes than my laptop screen due to field of vision.

I already have 2 monitors (including my laptop screen because I’m primarily on laptop) but recently I tried using Google Earth on a desktop with a fast i7-13700 and a 1440p monitor and it was so immersive. If each pixel was 100m, I could see 256km, all with minimal hiccups.

It reminded me I want a big 4k Monitor for this stuff, maybe even of TV size.

Oh boy. I got into Pokémon when I was 8 and I still love the format. It has a great progression system (at least in my mind) and can be used in easy and super challenging ways, like Nuzlockes. I have way too much nostalgia for the series and I like the music way too much.

My short opinions of the each game:

R/B/Y: Unbalanced, seriously exploitable glitchy games. At least there’s no cutscenes.

G/S/C: Terrible level curve, ruins the games.

R/S/E: The first games to really nail the format.

FR/LG: What R/B/Y should’ve been.

D/P: Great potential but please play on emulator because they’re so slow. Play platinum instead and don’t bother with the remakes.

HG/SS: Best for a grand Pokémon Game, but still retains some of the bad progression from G/S/C. Still a great game overall

B/W: I have way too much nostalgia for these games but they’re some of the best.

B2W2: Less nostalgia but objectively better than even B/W in multiple ways.

XY: Mediocre

OR/AS: Good remake on a great base.

S/M/US/UM: If you like playing Pokemon instead of watching cutscenes, don’t play these games. Seriously, don’t.

LGPE: Gimmicky games. FR/LG is better unless you really enjoy the Let’s Go gimmicks.

SwSh: Mediocre I believe

BDSP: See D/P

PLA: I still need to get around to playing it, gah the backlog is too long

S/V: Actually really great games if you hate how linear other Pokemon games are like I do, and you can look past the performance issues

If you have any questions or comments please reply lol.

Unexpected factorial

But if you could make $9 per second, you could make $9! per day

The slashed zero is the empty set, and the slashed O is literally nothing cause screw the slashed O

Keep it and wait for the applications to bloat up. You won’t feel like you have an excessive amount of RAM in a few years.

This is the best advertisement for Victoria 3 (or other similar games). Now I want to get a game like this and experiment with messing with the economy.

What exactly is the point of this? By buying foreign products, you pay the US government in whatever import tariff as part of the cost. I’d rather support domestic American businesses over the US government.

It’s definitely overrated. Where I live a solid meal will set you back $12-$14, and it’s always super crowded and hence slow. Instead, I can just walk a few minutes, and get better chicken for cheaper ($10-$12) and faster at the local place.

I’m surprised they have this! I felt like Nintendo would be the last company to do this kind of thing.

…

Well I should’ve seen this coming. You need a Nintendo online subscription to do anything in the app. Still cool that they have this at all.

Is this an official app that I can download?

Gaming battlestation, with room for some work stuff too.

The four horsemen of selling out:

• Big Pharma

• Big Oil

• The military-industrial complex

• Surveillance tech companies

Take what I say with a big grain of salt because I’m just an onlooker, but from what I’ve heard housing is incredibly unaffordable in the desireable cities like Beijing and Shanghai, like $600000 for a 2bdrm when the median salary is $20000. It’s a speculative investment whose bubble has burst but prices are still super inflated.

Got this a couple weeks ago. What a garbage way to promote your cloud AI.

NNN is literally just a challenge. It doesn’t matter if you nut or not. Heck, most people only do it for the challenge and the “big nut” when they lose or after they win.

Motorcycles: Excuse me

Sports cars: Hold my beer

Planes:

It’s literally the opposite in my place. The cold spigot will release 90F water when it’s 60F outside. The hot spigot is even hotter.

Fun fact: In most states, this length is 40ft, but there are some exceptions, like CA, where it’s 24ft or 48ft depending on the road.
