6 out of 10 is the new 2. People don't know how to rate things anymore. It makes everything difficult to gauge. The Chinese restaurant in town near me has a 4.7/5 on Google and it's the most disgusting food I've ever eaten, yet it has the same score as the actually good restaurants nearby.

Strawberry plants grow very close to the ground. I know there's techniques to raise them and I'm sure there are varieties that are taller but that thing looks fake as hell.

The first 4 times I got stung by yellow jackets this year, I can understand. I was encroaching on their territory by walking down a trail. But did they really have to follow me into my truck 40 feet away and continue to sting me inside? Little pricks. Land ownership is theft, wasps!

Suddenly I'm in favor of ethnic cleansing?

I'm not sure. I use xmanager for Spotify.

I think I had to update twice, maybe three times in the past four or five years? I've never considered that an issue.

I've been using a hacked Spotify app for years. It takes 5 minutes to set up and I don't have to pay any money to a soulless corporation who will throw a few half pennies to the artists that I enjoy. Oh, and I get to disable the shit ui choices that they try to implement so I get a better experience than a paying customer.

No, that's not how it works. The modern art world is still a scam, but it's not as simple as that.

This is true, but they also allow someone who missed your talk to catch up by reading the PowerPoint. The best middle ground is to have instant text, but not read it, imo.

I can't wait for the fourth dlc when it will finally be good.

Yeah, I actually want better AI, though. I want better AI in my video games. Enemy AI is awful almost across the board in modern games.

I forgot he existed for a bit. It's like seeing an old friend.
