Oh I didn’t notice it did that. thanks for fixing it.

There are 8.0658*10^67 orders you can shuffle a card deck in.

The math is easy. It’s just 52! if your calculator has that function which is really 525150…32*1. There are 52 possibilities for the first card 51 for the second since you’ve already used one card and so on.

How many decks of cards have been shuffled over human history, or will be is beyond me.

They probably only saw Blue’s Brothers 2000.

Can you imagine if one of them had to screw in a light bulb.

Musk is just butthurt a good father is insulting him.

You don’t need to say Transparency mode is the best thing ever in ten comments.

Transparency mode is not nearly the same as open headphones. Its fine for a quick conversation but isn’t good at providing awareness of your surroundings. It has its place and is a great feature, but it’s not going to cut it for people looking for open headphones.

This is the way.

but it is divine.

I was hoping it was moe from the Simpsons.

It’s not that public transportation is for the poors, it’s that it is inconvenient. I used to ride the metro every day to work when I lived in DC and it added an extra hour vs driving. I didn’t mind as I could chill and read a book or listen to music but it was extra time.

When I moved to Portland I could take the bus to work because my house and job were on the same route so it was only about 5 minutes more than driving. Now I’d have to take 2 buses, or walk a mile to the bus stop on the same route as my work. Either option would turn a 10 minute drive into an hour commute each way. I don’t have that kind of extra time when I work 12 hour shifts and come home on my lunch break to walk the dog. I assume people with kids have even more of a time crunch.

So does mine, and we just got hacked. Almost like users make stupid passwords when required to change frequently.

Hey, she got me watching WNBA content and I don’t even watch the NBA. Mostly I just get intrigued by players people dislike for no reason, like Lamar Jackson in the NFL. Dude has won 2 MVPs and carries the Ravens offense but people just move the goal posts on him every year.

80s millennial here and same. Getting games to run was so much work back in the 90s that I learned about computers. I think I got my first IT job because I was able to install and setup Word.

Not Foundation, but sounds a bit like it. Galactic empire collapses because no one knows how the technology that powers it works anymore.

I still have the guide that came with Earthbound. I read that thing through so many times as a kid. I think my parents bought it new on clearance because it didn’t sell and I was having a rough year.

Still remember the night I got it. It was a nice summer night, there was a block party on our street. My parents wanted to stay later than usual but let me go home to play. The adults were only one house over, but it felt like growing up getting to be home alone.

That opening sequence felt like it could have been my life in a different reality. It took a few years for me to finally beat it , but it felt like growing up with the characters in a way.

I feel the guidebook had a lot to do with my memories. It was so cool how it was presented as newspapers from towns along the way and it being a tangible object added to the immersion. Seriously a great gaming experience I can’t ever replicate.

I remember doing that for HoMM3. I brought it with me from home when I stayed with my grandparents for a few weeks one summer. It wouldn’t install on their PC so I just read the manual cover to cover forever.

Except they get no respect from the GOP. Look at all the FDNY firefighters that have chronic health issues from working during 9-11 and the GOP refuses to pay for health care. Makes sense they’d get booed.

C’mon that’s the best part of Oregon history.

Enslaved was a great game based off Journey to the West. Unfortunately it sold poorly.

Free time is tight before and after shift so it’s all about preparation. Clothes are out the night before, meals are prepped before work week starts etc. It’s also important to have a short commute. I’m close and go home on lunch break for an hour to eat and walk the dog.

Some days are real busy but fly by fast. I’m super beat after those. Most I’m more “on call” and just fix problems as they come. I get to work on projects I want to in the down time, or even just chill knowing a big problem is around the corner. IDK hard to explain but it’s worth it for the time off. I think my ideal would be for 10s every week.
