Doctors seem way to quick to assume that patients are imagining their symptoms. I fortunately haven’t had that happen to me yet, but my mom has some stories.

Thanks for the link. I wasn’t aware of that site.

Ideally, you would set this up ahead of time and won’t need to see it. But the thing that annoys me about outlook’s out-of-office thing is that by default, it just turns on for people in your organization. So if you forget to turn it on for everyone you can have an annoyed client wondering why you haven’t responded all week.

Right. But if the theme is selected by someone who doesn’t work with code, and who builds the rest of the website with drag’n’drop widgets and unmaintained plugins, you’re in for a bad time.

I fucking hate wordpress. I get assigned a simple task to implement something on some page and find out that the code I need to edit isn’t in a Git repo, but instead it’s in a basic textbox buried somewhere in a page template. The code is stored in a database instead of version control because the people who built the site don’t know any better.

I have only the vaguest memory of something on what I think was the Atari, but I’m not even sure if we ever actually owned that console. I think the first game I actually remember playing was Super Mario Bros, on the cartridge that also had Duck Hunt.

I’ve mentioned these before and I’ll do it again:

• Exanima - Read about the features. This one is more impressive than the screenshots make it look (at least for me).
• Lunacid - I love the visual style and atmosphere of this. I also enjoyed Lost in Vivo by the same developer.
• Praey for the Gods - This one is for anyone who’s looking for more games like Shadow of the Collossus.
• The Upturned - A cartoony horror-comedy game with a great sense of humor.
• Withering Rooms - The story is interesting and the atmosphere is great.
• Your Spider - This one is possibly my favorite indie horror game.

I actually remember the teacher having us do this in high school. I tried it again a few years later and it didn’t really work anymore.

True, but still beats the maybe 1 or 2 updates I got over the lifetime of my other phones.

I ended up installing LineageOS and have been getting updates almost weekly ever since.

Yeah that 4th movie sucked so bad it somehow ruined the original trilogy for me.

I haven’t bought a Ubisoft game since Farcry 3 when a friend invited me to join an online game (which is something I very rarely had the opportunity to do) but the game wouldn’t let me play because I didn’t have that subcription thing they had. I tried using the free signup code that came with the game, but my brother already used it. So yeah, I have a personal grudge against that shitty company.

Also, I hate what they did to the Rainbow Six franchise. The original games (by Red Storm, I think?) are what those games should’ve been.

Might be doable with Android, but I think Apple still doesn’t allow installing apps outside of their own store.

I think I beat it once, but only after a shitload of save scumming.

For the indie horror genre: Your Spider

I’m nearing the end of El Paso, Elsewhere. It’s a pretty cool game. The story is better than I expected.

Jumping around to random features is how my ADHD brain works most efficiently.

We say “yo-ho” but we don’t say “ho”.

You wanna know why this dashboard takes a full minute to load? It’s because it joins every table in the fucking database because some people can’t be bothered to look at a separate page for certain information.

On the one hand, I’d get to feed people toenails. On the other hand, I don’t want to go to family gatherings.
