WE HAVE TO GO BACK

The thing that’s missing here is context. It’s hard to care about a random doctor prescribing an extra $200 for a patient that is taken out of the tens of billions of dollars of profit a year that health insurance companies make.

Like, this car seat anecdote costs as much as an hour meeting of a few of their higher paid employees.

Does that really matter? Should it matter?

It doesn’t matter that it was correct. There isn’t anything that verifies what it’s saying, which is why it’s not recommended to ask it questions like that. You’re taking a risk if you’re counting on the information it gives you.

because it could have just as easily confidentiality said something incorrect. You only know it’s correct by going through the process of verifying it yourself, which is why it doesn’t make sense to ask it anything like this in the first place.

the reason for this is kinda funny

he was like 24-25 when Wolfenstein 3D came out (having designed like half the levels) and continued on, being an integral part of Doom, Doom 2, Hexen and Quake

well, I can only speak from my own experience. I forget the exact prescription but my eyes were also slightly off so one was worse than the other and neither was perfect.

Idk if it’s just that significant or if it’s having them align but it made tree leaves just look individual and pop for me. I was staring at every tree and saying how they look so cool and it was only later that I learned this common tree meme among people who get glasses.

I paid for eye insurance when I first landed a “real” job that has benefits and got an eye check up and the optometrist was like “you’re just barely off from 20/20, not really even a prescription” and i was like oh geez what a waste of time.

And then I put on the pair of glasses and it was like this. Just every tree looked magical.

I’ll add to the others that A LOT of places don’t make bagels well. If it feels like you’re just eating bread then it’s not a good bagel. It should be chewy but also somewhat hard on the outside. A good bagel also doesn’t need to be toasted because it’s fresh.

you probably just notice that because it doesn’t make sense from your perspective.

it’s probably more cost efficient for advertisers to just throw relevant ads at potential groups. Determining whether an individual already has the item is a waste of resources, and you probably don’t notice when the ads are things you don’t own.

with stuff like this, usually the objective is to advertise based on patterns across purchase histories

do you know what an analogy is??

do you mostly communicate with people in your company or do you talk with external people too?

Don’t get me wrong, I know teams has issues, I have my own list of complaints, I’m just surprised how different your complaints are.

how often do you use teams? And do you usually have network issues? I have pretty stable Internet and don’t run into any of these issues but I could see the occurring if teams doesn’t have a stable connection.

Teams opening files in teams is super annoying though.

that makes sense, it’s like only really feasible now that we have enough decompiled, readable n64 games

a comment on that site really condescendingly claims this is how he would have handled it and that a script could be written in half a day to do the work.

my understanding is that an emulator effectively recreates the hardware’s different components in software so that from the game’s “perspective” it’s running on a real machine more or less.

This process instead decompiles the game code and recompiles for a new target machine.

I suspect one can’t just pump out a script in an afternoon to do this, but I am curious what is the complexity here?

I think the most famous one was the star wars jedi force trainer? Some people say it’s fake but… it’s like a headset you put on that they claim reads your brain waves and it controls a little fan that switches on and off to make a ball in a tube float

food is a big part of every culture and it is something everyone has to deal with several times a day. That already brings in a lot of opportunities where someone’s diet is relevant to conversation. And, veganism goes beyond diet. I don’t think they necessarily do it on purpose, you probably don’t notice how often you bring up specifically the opposite of veganism.

I don’t see how it’s backwards, the word drives clicks and is commonly used. It’s unfortunate but most journalism has to be profit-motivated to survive these days.
