For once, I stopped reading a book too early to plagiarize it! But my version will have a badass Totoro with a katana and your favorite discontinued childhood cereal.

that just means that we can't ever stop logging in as we need to mine karma konstantly bekause we have no high score list

Now I have an idea...

Procedurally generated game with a few thousand endings. 100% speed run competition with a monetary reward. 11 renowned e-atheletes living in a dorm, their lives broadcasted on Twitch.

woah doesn't work for me

Just by casual reading, I stumbled upon a more plausible theory: they're deep in negotiations as fourth season means syndication bux.

Tbh there was enough complaining on the internet about the show when the sauce drama was ongoing that you'd think the show had hemorrhaged 75% of its audience.

Actually it might be of this, but the solution seems obvious: let Harmon go.

If this is the case then the people of Adult Swim/Cartoon Network are objectively bad at business. Annoying as super intense fandom is, it's a license to print money. I suspect there's some further drama behind the whole shenanigan.

The season finale gave a faux reset, but actually set the tension between the family members moving and each character had development. They started having some agency when in previous seasons almost everything was put into motion by Rick. Then the season finale came, which basically was all about how badass Rick was. Apparently Dan Harmon contributed more than usual to the last episode so I'm gonna blame it on him for he doesn't know his son.

I think this is definitely disappointing to me as the end of season 3 was disappointing to me. It's not a good thing to end the whole series with.

All the kids here pronounced Quake as "Guahkeh" here so the name is super amusing to me. I'm the kind of a super nerd who uses the Xmonad window manager and typing "Windows key + p + xterm" each time I want a terminal truly is pita so I'll give this a shot. Function keys are pretty neat and ought to be used by more software imo so just hitting F12 is super convenient.

After you mixed it all together in a pitcher, garnish it with a dash of mineral oil. It will make your joints silent again.

Ah! So is this why chicken soup is a sickness staple? Interesting. I think I'll buy some Tom yum paste and check what kind of broth it produces for future since I like the taste and it's both salty and fatty and I can get it in neat little bags that will survive the coming nuclear war.

Linters are, imo, pretty damn good. Honestly I like all kinds of static analysis things. They also end up being kind of stealth tutors pointing to problems you couldn't have known (yet) and you can learn stuff genuinely out of a need.

You'll make even better posts without trying the more you do things offline.

I read the book before I knew it was in anyway big at all and it was amazing, but I never thought I'd see it anywhere else. Like I thought that the biggest relevancy would be for mentioning it in a discussion on bad books and instead it became a total monster franchise.

I think this could be even better if it related to the original book as well, because it roughly ends like the following. There's a space-bat-angel-dragon the size of Australia that has landed in Australia, utterly terrorizing the world. The Iron Man (original British name for the Iron Giant) challenged s-b-a-d to a game of wits, which he won.

“You’ve won, yes, you’ve won, and I am your slave,” cried the space-bat-angel-dragon. “I’ll do anything “Very well,” said the Iron Man. “From now on you are the slave of the earth. What can you do?”

“Alas,” said the space-bat-angel-dragon, “I am useless. Utterly useless. All we do in space is fly, or make music.”

“Make music?” asked the Iron Man. “How? What sort of music?”

“Haven’t you heard of the music of the spheres?” asked the dragon. “It’s the music that space makes to itself. All the spirits inside all the stars are singing. I’m a star spirit. I sing too. The music of the spheres is what makes space so peaceful.”

“Then whatever made you want to eat up the earth?” asked the Iron Man. “If you’re all so peaceful up there, how did you get such greedy and cruel ideas?” The dragon was silent for a long time after this question. And at last he said: “It just came over me. I don’t know why. It just came over me, listening to the battling shouts and the war-cries of the earth – I got excited, I wanted to join in.”

“Well, you can sing for us instead,” said the Iron Man. “It’s a long time since anybody here on earth heard the music of the spheres. It might do us all good.” And so it was fixed. The space-bat-angel-dragon was to send his star back into the constellation of Orion, and he was to live inside the moon. And every night he was to fly around the earth, through the heavens, singing.

Then world peace arrives. I think it's even more bizarre that something like RPO could happen...

While a lot what I post here is whimsical, I thought that the domain washingtonpost.com and the board /f/general was enough to suggest that this was a serious piece about an absurd thing. I suppose I should have rewritten the title to make it more clear.

I'm not usually into stories about crime, but I thought this was particularly interesting as how contemporary it all was, like:

1. dating app on a phone launching jealousy
2. boyfriend being a huge gamer and a self-defined "ethlete" up to 13 hours a day
3. katana (the commercialization of them perhaps more than recognizing them as a thing you use for crime)

It's a very modern spin on an age old ill. This is a bit utopistic at the moment given how abstinence only education is gaining more steam under the present administration, but ideally I'd like to see infidelity treated with more depth in schools since it's so common. Not just a superficial "nu-uh it's bad".

this reminds me of ai weiwei's sunflower seeds exhibition, millions of individually painted and crafted seeds, none of them really unique but still singular

I was only tangentially aware of the work, but I thought that they were just ordinary sunflower seeds this whole time! Let's just say that back then I wondered what the deal was, exactly.

Rice is delicious and surprisingly under appreciated. Just think of eating curry without rice...

My phone is similar and I only became aware of the breadth of my achievement when I decided to close them all at the same time, which is when my phone notified about my high score. There was like 20 tabs that had information I wanted to save but couldn't bother to dig them anymore.

I think the oldest were open for about two months or so.

You should feed it more fiber.

Idk. It's easier to open a new tab when context switching from n old one than to close old ones or navigate them elsewhere. Also I can't, like, close by domain like all Reddit tabs or what have you.

Also, Bohemia has a coast in one of his plays
