I would give anything to just be normal. My inability to navigate social situations has had an enormous negative impact on my life going back all the way to grade school.

Wouldn't someone else step in? It was Yahoo for a while. Firefox market share is pretty pitiful these days but the default search engine is still worth something .

Six Feet Under had arguably the greatest finale of all time. It's been like fifteen years since I watched it and I still think about it.

Yeah I'm not really sure what to think about him. He gives off serious grifter vibes and at least some of his claims are probably overblown. On the other hand, who is he hurting? He's "experimenting" on himself and makin

This was a while ago but a pack of frozen egg rolls I used to buy a lot said "approximately 6 egg rolls per box." I always thought it was funny they used "approximately" and I always had 6 egg rolls in the box. Until one

Target has the best self checkouts I've ever used. 95% of the time I have no issues at all. Occasionally I might have to use the hand scanner on something if the barcode is faded, very rarely I might have to type in a code manually.

If I had no other obligations I would probably play EVE sixteen hours a day. It's simply not a game I can play casually lmao. In my opinion it's the greatest MMO ever created.

I've been using Firefox as my primary browser since 2005-2006ish. A site misbehaving because of it is a rare enough occurrence that offhand I can't remember any time that it has happened. One issue I do come across occasionally, a

RPS is a shell of its former self. The amazing writers from the early days all left years ago and it's mostly just an SEO spam site now.

It's crazy to me that so many of my gripes about Windows can be traced back to one person. He's going to single handedly drive me away from the OS.

I've been buying previous generation Garmin watches and I could never go back. Earlier this year I bought a Fenix 6X Pro Solar for $400. It's not the latest and greatest but it's still a phenomenal watch at that price. During

I don't know, I think the unpredictability of how much you will owe Unity each month will be a big sticking point for all developers, big and small. A percentage of revenue is easy to account for; if we make this much money we will pay
