Most games, most textures are compressed, which leads to something like Diablo 2's remake having ridiculous load times considering it's a simple reskin of a 20 year old game. That 30GB footprint probably gets unpacked to something twice the size, and if you're caching literally every single thing for the sake of smoothness (flight sims rarely have loading screens when you enter another country's airspace or a different biome), and a little bit of overhead for OS etc, gonna need heaps of RAM

It's called adverse possession and that's why you discard anything not bolted down ASAP under the presumption of illegal dumping, put up a new fencr with big signs, and claim any structures as yours under the presumption that anyone following code (building legal) would hire surveyors to note boundaries. Do not let any other living human past that fence under any circumstance and if they do so against your will videotape all of it.

Of course whoever built it will take you to court but you argue that they can move their structures because you have every right to your own land for all the aforementioned reasons

Edit: and something like this, random dude trying to be a bigger asshole vs Elon Musk, you'd need to hire an attorney just to field calls from attorneys lining up to work pro bono for the free media coverage, and probably wind up with a PR rep working for free for the same reasons, helping you line up slots on random talk shows, because this would go mega fucking viral

I'd probably wait for them to finish electrical on those structures then hire a contractor to haul out everything not attached to a recycler and use the cash to build a fence with a bunch of no trespassing signs and then wait to be served. Not my fault they didn't measure property lines as required by law. Walk out of court with free hookups, they can move their stupid structures

I heard they're drafting a resolution to sheepishly ask the US 'why the big cars?'

Dumbass complains that it is allegedly a political move but also wants Presidents to be able to dictate the Fed's decisions.

Everything that happens that isn't to his benefit is a conspiracy to make him look bad. Everything that happens to his benefit was hard-earned and well-deserved.

Fucking 80 year old baby wears diapers and people can attest to it. Smells like shit, cries, drools, no impulse control when it comes to random tits, can barely form a coherent sentence. No wonder his cabinet was a revolving door of blood relatives and his wife can't be bothered to leave NY to visit him. Sad sad guy

But like, if you were running for president and about to speak to a crowd you'd probably low key phone half-pull and google the name and do the glance, right? Like 'what city am I even in' type shit, Trump is beyond dumb

My only interpretation is that Trump is basically senile grandpa at thanksgiving dinner making a gay jab at someone for having 2 pierced ears. I don't even get how he could genuinely and sincerely mix this up

I've never been rear ended but then I bought my G37 and it was suddenly happening on a yearly basis. In the span of one year, I had a truck back into it when it was parked in our parking lot, got rear ended in traffic, then had a car reverse into me at a stop sign (driver pulled forward to make a turn but decided they couldn't make it so threw it in reverse and gunned it). I may have been rear ended a second time that year but it's hard to keep track of how many people drove into this car. After a while I quit making claims because that was a pain in the ass, bumpers look like I use it to nudge cars around a junkyard.

Edit: and the thing that makes the frequency really wild is that I used it mainly to commute ~2 miles to work, so I was in that thing less than 30 minutes a day

Advisors in meeting: "We have a clear path to 270 as long as they focus on single issue voters who care most ab-"

Trump interrupts everyone to talk about how boring this meeting is, invites everyone to order McDonald's with him.

JD rubs chin pensively, thinking about a single issue to focus on, something easy which does not involve walking into a donut shop

JD has a really weird fixation on cats. Cat ladies, grilling cats, cats cats cats. Has JD ever bummed a cat? We'll never know but it makes me wonder
