To add to this, if you’ve already connected to internet, you can disconnect with the same shift + F10 trick to get the command prompt open and type “ipconfig /release” to get rid of your connection.

Literally 90% of my problems are because billionaires exist. My rent is too high, groceries are unaffordable, my car is one dashboard light away from breaking down. All of these problems are solvable with the money that billionaires extract from my labor.

And working until dead, don’t forget that. Big factor in the whole depression thing.

Work still sucks, haven’t found another job, but we’re supposedly getting acquired by a larger company and that’s going to trigger a restricted stock unit payout. I’ve been here for a while so maybe I’ll get a nice chunk of change out of this debacle before I get fired.

I actually really like the SNES game, it is objectively not great though. You can’t even save, so emulation is a must unless you can dedicate an 8-10 hour sitting to it.

Particularly that it switches between top-down outdoors and a pseudo-FPS indoors, and the claustrophobic interiors and darker music give it a lot of charm.

I do nice things for other people when I’m up to it, but I hesitate to call myself a ‘nice person’ because niceness isn’t necessarily an intrinsic quality, in the same way that I can be a transient dumbass at times without thinking of myself as an idiot.

People want to be Nazis without other people knowing they’re Nazis.

Respecting the LGBTQ+ community.

I mean, I really don’t. I’m not particularly gung-ho about being male, but I don’t think I’d be happier as a girl because my problems stem from socioeconomic stresses, rather than anything to do with my gender perception or body image.

I think the seven seas be particularly fine this morning, arr.

Yeah, it’s incredible how the ‘seethe and cope’ crew never get called out on being shit-stirrers and directly attacking liberals, but the minute you make a joke about convicted felon Donald Trump, all of a sudden cries for ‘unity’ and ‘civility’ come out of the woodwork.

Almost like they’re massive hypocrites who never gave a flying fuck about unity and use crocodile tears and both sides-ism to avoid accountability for the things they say and do.

What fucking red line?

Who has time for hobbies?

Yeah, lucky bastard has a wall behind him instead of a hallway.

I bought a Blahaj the other week and my god it is so soft. I’ve been cuddling with it every night since.

Sounds like the company needs to increase its bus factor. Luckily, I can help the company by not doing any of this nonsense, to pressure execs into hiring more staff so that the team is robust enough to weather a catastrophe.

You wouldn’t shutter a studio that produced a critically acclaimed game and then tell your remaining employees they need to make more games like that one.

As a lifelong customer of Dwarven Forge, I understand your pain.
