Which ironically makes them all look more life like

It's ok. I have a physical hard drive that manages to get content somehow and an app that connects to it easily

Exactly

And someone who knows better please correct me if I’m wrong, but 10 years ago for streaming is an eternity ago.

I believe back when the show was new and hot you could only watch HBO WITH a cable subscription

There’s a reason people pirated it instead of just subscribing

Ok, I was right: this late 2014 article says they’d finally offer standalone “next year”

Edit: April 2015 is when it started. So quite a bit after GoT started

It does affect your experience.

Joining a server with a small number of people vs a bunch will impact your initial experience and how fast you branch out

It’s not anything that can’t be overcome but let’s not pretend every user understands how to expand their network

The problem is the paradox of “it doesn’t matter what server you pick” while also giving them a choice.

If choices don’t matter, why have a choice?

Although I disagree that it doesn’t matter

Thank you. I love these comparisons

I’ve had a waterproof phone with a removable battery. It’s not crazy. Within the last 6 years or so even

As I get older, I enjoy it more. It’s a reminder that I’m not as old a bastard as I feel some days, and I know the benefits are real, noticeable, and literally life changing. And at that moment I’m the youngest I’ll ever be for the rest of my life, so it’s a good time to do it.

Maybe I don’t love the specific moment that my muscles are on fire but perspective keeps me happy while doing it

Voters in many states have decided that’s not a priority for them. They’re too busy whining about imaginary college level classes taught in grade schools

Yes. At the moment it is my preferred one over jeroba and connect

Maybe try liftoff

Post and discussion volume isn’t as high, but it’s high enough to keep me happy

Unless every test I took every 1-2 weeks were false negatives, no

Still dodging somehow. If I can’t get it after kissing the hell out of my gf who tested positive 8 hours later, to sitting in a car with my kid for 2 hours who tested positive 3 hours later (both events were within 12 hours) I’m not sure I will.

I did feel odd a couple days later for a few hours, but I think it was all in my head.

Now, at Christmas I had RSV and it kicked the living shit out of me. My parents had covid earlier in the year and RSV in December and they said RSV was much worse. I was laid out for 8 days straight. When my gf had covid it was maybe 3

Correlation at least tries to imply they’re related. As lottery sales go up in your household so does credit card debt. Not always a cause but they’re related

You’re looking for spurious correlations which is when numbers have no business even being used in a comparison

A very unqualified but very good at bullshitting for 5 minutes VP moved in to run my team. The old VP was great, we all loved her. My boss (Director level), I loved her too. She’s the reason I joined the team.

They moved the SVP head of the dept to a new area and brought in some marketing lackeys. Our department’s job was to analyze marketing and they were terrible at it. Not our fault the results were shit.

So new head of the dept, new head of our team. They were just stupid and sinister. A female friend of mine who worked with my new manager on a project referred to her as “That evil cunt”. My old manager 2 managers before that had her kicked off a project because she nearly ruined it

I tried to give her a chance but she was awful and a liar. We already lost 3 out of 6 people on my team who bailed. Dozens in the dept. I left before she could fire me for some made up shit she was planning (another manager clued me in)

Eventually the entire dept of 200 people was whittled down and absorbed into another group.

PS1 and the 16 bit and earlier would be a good experience
