a lot of detroit's problems also stems from the existence of grand rapids. i'd imagine if a company wanted a michigan office detroit wouldn't be the first on the list despite being the bigger city.

cash is a physical entity, though -- i'm not sure there's a parallel to be drawn there

the video game crash was mostly north america/usa though, wasn't it? from what i've heard europe wasn't as affected by atari's woes and kept chugging along with home computers over consoles.

american high schools aren't proper schools in the sense that they educate their students for life ahead, they're day care. they encourage rote memorization and regurgitation of data instead of critical thinking and processing of

isn't the point of twitter that you follow only who you want and other people's garbage doesn't show up if you don't want it? what makes mastodon different in that regard?

ehh, i'm thinking more colbert report's take on conservative tv. john definitely has the wacky "what will he say next" down, but it's not a satire of aj. i'm looking more for someone who speaks like aj does, ab

arguably having infowars be high up on the "most downloaded" podcast list would be worse. especially if they categorize themselves as news or politics instead of entertainment.

if he was playing a character, and had disclaimers as such at the beginning, middle, and ending of his podcast, i'd love alex jones. kind of a "what would he say next?" sort of thing, mixed with plenty of onion-esque satire.

well, we were middle schoolers being introduced to programming through video games. we were making basic 2d games like asteroids and tankwar, nothing with shaders.

this map does not like michigan, at all: https://oalley.net/map/ba2 specifically the upper peninsula. it looks like it doesn't have enough data as you go towards the rural north, which doesn't shock me at all

oh man, processing. i did a weeklong video game programming "camp" back when i was in middle school and processing was the language we used. definitely easy to pick up and use.

places definitely don't want to expend resources hiring someone for three weeks just to have them leave, then come back, in a cycle. they want 3 months all in a row.

as a kid i was scared shitless of flying. the idea of being blasted across the country in a pressurized metal tube was overwhelming to me. when my family was planning a trip to orlando for disney world, i contemplated staying behind with fa

depends on what sphere you're looking at. the overwatch league is poised to take over in the esports scene while fortnite is gobbling up the casual playerbase. note that this is north america focused, i have no clue about europe, south

major flashbacks to bush's white house shootout. i wonder if they still host all the old games? honestly i wonder about the flash games sites in general. what happens when flash finally gets brought behind the barn?

the google play store does this -- reviews left on older versions of applications will be denoted as such. the developer response to comments is also made public, so a bad review on a 1.0 release could have the dev apologizing and saying it

two years ago, i think? i stopped torrenting music when i got a streaming subscription, because i discover music easier if it's streamed and i'm not enough of an audiophile to discern between 320kbps mp3 and flac.

there's a lot of awesome styling themes you could do for 80s and 90s: 80s - hair metal, synthwave/synthpop (think hotline miami, vice city, etc), retro games pre/post crash. all in the 8 bit c64/atari color palette. 90s

cursory research led me to believe that l-theanine on its own doesn't do much of anything. adding caffeine seems to be the ticket to the proposed improvements. wonder if there's a way to package l-theanine and caffeine together in

i don't even mind charging for meals, but not having to spend most of my lunch break driving for easy food would be a huge plus. guess i know what to look for once i graduate.

as someone who works in a place a solid few miles from restaurants, and has a break room with a few microwaves/a toaster oven as well as a vending machine with gas station tier food... how common are workplace cafeterias like this? is

i'm not sure that's a valid argument. cars have a clearly tangible benefit above riding horseback, even early automobiles. what's the tangible benefit to a decentralized system like this other than twitter/facebook/
