Oh no! They’re pouring on a rich oily dressing! Noooooo!

Play Steampunk Rally!

That has also been my experience. It’s like they rewrote the entire UI stack at once and expected it to go well.

You did the right thing, the person was angry with no real outlet for it, so their brain found someone to blame to release that tension. They were not thinking rationally and attempts to argue would have been stonewalled and probably would have escalated things.

This is not a justification for their behaviour, it was despicable and wrong. More so my opinion of why anything other than what you did was correct.

I’m really sorry.

Look, we can’t have TVs that last 15 years anymore!

We need to keep people buying every year or two. Otherwise line not go up! Don’t you understand that this is about protecting The Economy?!

I’m just running a train with 3x arti carriages around the perimeter of the base. Keep them occupied.

If the biters decide it is

Honestly I fell off the channel when he started dragging his videos out to 30+ mins.

Felt a lot like padding to appease The Algorithm.

I bounced off it, sadly.

I’ll have to try again once my current Factorio run is over.

I dunno if it will help now, but you might be able to bleach the body to reduce the intensity of the colour.

(Would 100% test on an offcut that has been stained and finished like the main body)

See you in 2 years!

Nestlé are evil, exploitative assholes who are directly and intentionally responsible for many innocent deaths.

But also pure evil

Wasn’t he all in on the metaverse a few years back?

That’s freedom.

Acronyms vs Initialisms

No one is going to try pronounce Fbi, it’s awkward.

There are terms that bridge the Acronym/Initialism divide. SQL-Sequel, URL-Earl and GUI-Gooey are some that come up fairly regularly in my line of work.

The bottom line is; Language is used to communicate concepts. We are lazy and do it as efficiently as we can get away with. The rules have changed a LOT to get us where we are today. It would be blind hubris to think the change will stop just because we don’t like it.

If you stab yourself with a small knife, in a few weeks you will be able to stab yourself with a larger knife. Continue doing this and you will become immune to being stabbed.

My partner has been very bullish on India’s economy in the future. I think the EU is proving her right.

I dunno man.

Company: Here’s a change.

Users: This sucks!

Company: Ok, let’s roll that back.

If the company were Apple, the change would stick. If it were Microsoft, the change would be rolled back for 2 weeks and then quietly re added.
