Closely linked thematically, Pushing Daisies. Both are very strange and great.

Incredible performance from the lead. At times he had me in pain from laughing, other times from cringing so hard.

This is the British meaning of surgeon, so just general doctor vs. doctor who cuts people up.

A police surgeon is a doctor trained in forensics. They assess injuries after an assault, whether a prisoner needs medical attention, etc. They are often a normal operating doctor who does police work when needed.

Nah. They are detecting the collision in order to push the player, so the engine is doing the work already. They could easily add an on_collision_player event in the NPC controller that fires at that point to handle NPC reaction.

The age of the engine impacts things like loading screens, poor use of modern hardware, etc. The 2004-era NPC handling is simply a reluctance to do any more than the bare minimum.

Sounds handy. I just checked off the spreadsheet as I went.

The argument is that ethnic Chinese aren’t likely to mock their leader on the basis of being ethnically Chinese. Therefore, the origin of it is extremely unlikely to be based on race.

It sounds like a link can be a file path and clicking the link just opens the file. If that’s the case, this is effectively the same risk as filesystem shortcuts.

An amazing opening to a wonderful album.

Yep. Lovely reading font.

I love Linux Biolinum for reading. It’s a ‘humanist sans-sarif,’ which means it designs letters like a serif font but with less little bits stuck on.

XDC Vs. Arm Ant! Only one will surviiiiiive!

They claimed both were gang members. Their logic was as follows:

1. The lady was involved in an assault, clear evidence that she is a criminal.
2. If you are simultaneously Venezuelan and a criminal, you are automatically a member of a specific gang.
3. The guy is involved (romantically) with the lady, extending her criminality and gang membership to him.

Not only is this batshit to begin with, she was the victim of the assault that is the root of the logic chain.

It also owns Twitter because Musk spent $33 billion in AI investment cash to buy Twitter from himself to pay off his debt.

Now he is using space investment money to pay off the AI investors.

The problem with translating classical RPG combat into an FPS is that the game already has physical missing based on player skill. The dice roll stacks on top of that. Add in the total lack of communication on whether a miss was you or the dice, and it makes the player think that the hitboxes just suck.

Later games that do something similar tend to move it to the enemy, giving them a chance to parry for reduced damage. It’s mechanically very similar, but it feels way better for the player since they can see the hit still connect.

Also, FedEx drivers > FedEx Ground drivers. FedEx Ground is all subcontractors, which just adds another layer of fuckery.

How do you keep creepy guys from pretending to be trans men to go in a female restroom?

You don’t. You require restrooms to be built to a higher privacy standard.

They added support for F5.

The food service staff all go through e-verify, so the government already stated they are authorized to work.

ICE won’t care.

“Forever. be forever” Trump said about the deal. “That’s better than the Obama deal with the famous Iran nuclear deal, with a nine-year deal. No, this is forever. This is long-term.”

What an asshole. Blows up a significant measure in limiting the spread of nukes, then acts like it fell apart on its own.

Weird stuff. The bricks are huge and the corner doesn’t have proper brick corners. Looks like two blocks cut 45 and butted instead of alternating across it.
