New band name? The Orange Devil's Tiny Hands at Work.

And then I'd reformat it.
And then I'd disintegrate it with phasers, just to be sure.

If I could do that to certain parties I absolutely would. In a flash.
And then I'd flip the switch on the blinking box to "Off".

I'm not fussed; War of the Lions was so slow as to be well nigh unplayable on the PSP, so I never really learned what the differences were.

I like that. It's far less... controversial... than the things I tend to see as the only possible solutions.

And here's me logging onto Bluesky after work, seeing this discussion, and being like "Oh holy hell what fresh horrors did I miss THIS time." Because literally every freaking day with this wad.

And thank you for thinking i deserve better! Too bad I'm old (and thus basically undateable in Japan unless I were super wealthy), and neurodivergent such that I can't really navigate social interaction! 😅

tried to get out sooner; I could've stuck to my guns about not wanting kids (makes things even more complicated because there has been no joint custody in Japan until a new law was passed LAST year which doesn't go into effect until NEXT year); I could've stayed in the US and not come to Japan to

it does any good anyway. When I suggested it she was all "I'm not going to pay just to spend an hour talking to someone who listens and goes 'Mm-hm, mm-hm, mm-hm' and then go home. If it's something you need then YOU go." So, yeah, helpful.

I can't honestly say that I DO love her anymore. After years of neglect and even longer with a large reciprocity imbalance, I just can't anymore. And counseling's out; Japan lags behind most countries in the mental health department, so counseling isn't covered by insurance, and she doesn't believe

Heat's not gonna end here until the end of September at the earliest, unfortunately. Before July there may be a few periods where it lets off a bit with highs of 26-28, but all bets are off come July. I hate the summers here.

for literally a minimum of 12 hours a day in the summer (we're still technically at the tail end of spring 😩).
Hope your temps don't get this high!

We definitely turn it on! Without it, even with windows open, inside temps on the second floor would hit 40 or higher because we have a direct western exposure with zero shade (we DO have thick, light blocking curtains, which helps a LITTLE). But yeah, it's pretty expensive when you have to run it

unnecessarily) fair, my university wasn't that big in tech and wasn't really known for their compsci department. But still.
At the very least, at my university, getting me as a student to give up on learning to program was ENTIRELY the fault of the teachers.

which had us starting to use C. It was a single, 4 credit hour course. Right off the bat, the professor was like, "I expect you to be doing 40 hours of homework every week for this course."
I was like, nope, that's it, I'm out, I'm done. And I quit trying to learn how to program.

freed. My code looked fine, but when I compiled it and ran, it wouldn't free the memory. I asked the TA to take a look at my code and he said it looked fine and should work, so I ran the compiler and executable in front of him and showed the results. No comment. On a whim, I repeated a single line

homework. It was something basic, like write a program that allocated some memory, did a check that the memory was properly allocated and return some value indicating the results, and then return the memory to free and have it do a check and return a value to indicate that the memory was properly

My experience with compsci classes in university (because nothing was offered at any earlier edumacational stage) didn't care about mistakes being made. But the two things that utterly killed my interest were:

Yeah, we do have air conditioning, but the electric costs have like more than doubled over the last few years, so that doesn't help the budgeting.

It hasn't been uninstalled from my system since, and I am still playing. (I do take small breaks where I won't put in HOURS each day, but even during those periods I still check and putter a bit.)

I hear that. I was hyped from the very first announcement trailer at the end of 2013, because I wanted a game that:
Let me fly a spaceship
Had seamless transitions between planetary flight and space
Let me land on planets and get out of my spaceship and walk around
It delivered on all 3 at launch.

My condolences on the loss of your glass. I certainly hope you were careful with the cleanup; shattered glass is no joke, and all the little tiny shards it makes are a NIGHTMARE.

There was even a time she told me that if I REALLY loved her, I basically wouldn't have those (human) needs.
Best I can tell, from some casual comments she's made in different contexts, she finds me utterly UNattractive because I'm not ripped with a six-pack. 🤷♂️
Sorry! Probably TMI! 😅

Hah! Yeah, it's been WELL over half a decade since I've so much as held hands with a girl.
My wife's position has always been that it's a "me" problem; when I tried to TALK to her about it (in the past, before I just gave up) and asked "why", she was just like "why don't YOU think about that?".

At first I read this as "the only good parrot is the king parrot" and I was gonna be all "that is a good parrot but I can't in good conscience like this skeet" and then I read it again and was like "liking this skeet is a moral imperative, actually".
(Kingfishers are pretty rad, tho.)
