The Karen I grew up around nails the "karen" archetype so perfectly that when people started using the name like that, I immediately understood what they were referring to. It was uncanny.

These years later, even my boomer family all know the reference and agree, regularly point it out to our Karen.

I've been using PCSX 1.7 for ages now. It's been incredible, they were putting out lots of regular updates for it. It was clearly a ton of work and that work paid off. It's a really great emulator!

Wow, I remembering having these cards/book when I was a kid. I wonder what ever happened to them.

I was really confident. Then I lost a job to AI. Then they hired me back a few months later after realizing that replacing half the support team with an AI was not working out.

Years ago, a buddy got me going to his gym so he could show me the ropes. He'd been lifting most of his life and I really trusted him. It was the sort of gym where people go to do serious work. A lifter's lifting gym. Everyone there looked so serious and were pressing so much weight. I have never been that sort.

But they were all incredibly kind to me. Helped me when they thought I needed it. Never in a demeaning way. Any bad vibes I got from them was pretty much on me.

Those were really cool times. The gym would shut down about two years later and I haven't really gone to a gym since.

That’s a name with a lot of doubled letters.

I feel like this should be required watching for anyone who wants to better understand colliders and the politics around them. BobbyBroccoli made this series on the development of some of them.

Do Simpsons screenshots automatically get that font when you try to put the text on, or is it something that just everyone has decided to do across the board?

This is what I was afraid of 15 years ago. I couldn't tell you the last time I bought a AAA game. This release is so disgusting.

There are so many words here but absolutely fuck all for meaning.

Ages ago, I had the owner of a business I supported tell me I could remote into his computer any time that day, it would be available to me. I remoted in about 5 minutes after that call and he was amidst some fullscreen hardcore pornography. I respect that sort of move.
