Those stupid google/Microsoft certs drive me mental. At my place everyone had to do them including the project managers. Problem was the talking jira boards now have opinions on infrastructure because they did an entry level course on why x cloud platform will fix your marriage.

I sold my soul to a shitty job and its killing me slowly. I'd say if you are able or if anyone is able find something enriching, lifes too short to spend most of your waking hours wondering when a meteorite will crash into your office to make it all go away.

Tbh I think its a reaction to men policing womens bodies to then try and do the inverse but thats just a vibes based analysis. My perspective is all body shaming should stop and preferences are perfectly fine to have but there's no real need to broadcast what they are.

5'3 and didn't have many issues dating or finding people interested in me but I mostly dated lefty queers which may play a part. The only thing that negatively effected dating for me was tinder and the tinderisation of every online dating platform where i went from a few dates a month to nothing for years. The algo specifically refused to show me any lefty queers it was almost like they were erased from earth entirely.

However the one rly fukin annoying thing for me about being short is people really try to make it your problem and give you an insecurity about it. I've had people just outright tell me I'm too short and won't date me but i didn't ask them they just felt this internal need to put me down for some reason. I've had countless colleagues and customers have serious difficulties not mentioning it. Getting treated like a child when I'm a working adult etc etc. This isn't unique to being short however a lot of people really just can't help but body shame and have to tell others they don't personally want to fuck you like anyone should even care. Also my own mum would go on about it all the time saying she was really worried about having a short kid and for some reason she felt incredible disgust towards short men in general and would always tell me this idk why. Had a friend at school who was small like me and his mum somehow got ahold of growth hormones to give him? The result was he ended up looking about 40 at 18.

I've always maintained that the kind of person who ONLY cares about height is probably not someone I'd like anyway. Plus being smol and cute is fun regardless of what society says and I laugh when tall people struggle to fit on public transport. My plane seat? A throne.

I keep quitting that game cos my brain won't let me experience decent pacing and must go to every map marker

I think dragon age actually stinks is my hot take for the day. I actually don't like any bioware games.

Dragon crystal the goat

If only Lair had a dragon based name it may have turned out decent

I have no idea what would be a good idea but one I've been thinking about for a fantasy setting is a mage who really really hates magic and magicians. Like will go on a really long diatribe about why magic is the worst thing every created and magicians have their heads in the clouds and that most aren't qualified to be near a staff.

Mostly because its just me but swap out magic and mage for programming and programmer hehe. Idk if thats what you're looking for unfortunately i have not a single creative bone in my body my brother got all of the art talent instead.

I would like to hear about the story and what you're putting into the game though!

This project sounds cool, I haven't played a fire emblem game so no idea what they're about but I see you mentioned it's going on a rom is this like a rom hack or making it for an old console from scratch?

Idk what would be a sensible character suggestion since I've never played a fire emblem game. Would any silly idea do or does it have to fit certain rules.

This was me playing far cry 1 on my gma 950 graphics laptop at power point slides per second. Somehow finished the game as well

I'm waiting for my never appearing ss1 remake pre-order bonus of ss2 enhanced edition before i replay. Feel like I've been waiting half my life for it to come out. I like both games but ss2 is my favourite, i remember my first time playing and ferrying around an entire inventory of chemicals.

HD version on PC probably pirateable would be easier than emulating the xbox versuon.

I consistently have this issue where I legit cannot tell if someone is being snarky or mean it just bounces right off. Then i spend ages wondering if a certain phrase was meant to be an underhanded insult or not or what the subtext was supposed to be.

Started in the 90s was wildly successful at selling home computers to the UK public. However the company went into administration in 2002 due to the inability to sell anymore computers because well... No one needed a new computer. (Capitalism is an efficient system)

I remember playing age of empires on one of these things.

Turns down the sharpening and turns off chromatic aberration. So far has improved the visuals a lot and reduced the weird sharpening artifacts that really ruined the visuals.

The dlc and path tracing is just a different vibe. The game actually feels right amd running people over with the trans pride truck is POG

A warning for those with epilepsy the mod has some issues with flickering textures in some areas so proceed with caution .

It looks pretty good so far, any reason to replay this game is good for me

Edit: sizable degree of assholes on this website atm
