    It’s stupid to assume these people know that Trump said the same thing. There are a shocking amount of his “supporters” who don’t follow what he’s spewing on social media, so this sort of shit appears to them like complete non-sequiteur insanity.

    Instead of this childish “Then what about Trump?” response, just link them to the Trump tweet and be direct. "This is literally what Trump posted about someone else with the name swapped out. (LINK)”





  • That comes from magazines and TV where there’s money hiring cleaning crews you don’t see or something.

    I have some extended family making bank in oil trade, very wealthy, and it’s such a trip listening to them talk about life.

    Nannies for their kids that come to them. Grocery delivery. Delivery of almost everything, rarely go to the store themselves. House cleaners/maids that do everything. Landscapers. People to drive their kids to and from extracurriculars. Notice each of these is plural. The only thing I can think of that they don’t have is a chef.

    And they try to be down to earth, but their scale is skewed. Like they get thay most people have less time, but they expect the average person to still have like half the time they do, rather than like 1/10th at best.

    They have so fucking much free time, and they use it to keep their marriage and family strong. Date nights every week. Multiple family game nights each week. Both of the parents have rich social lives of their own, hobbies they have time to pursue.

    It’s astounding just how much of a difference the amount of free time available to them (due to having people to take care of the constant neverending life stuff for them) makes to their quality of life. Most direct example I’ve ever seen of the difference wealth can make.

    And their house always looks “HGTV ready”.

    Um, yes. You get most of the great stuff about the other holes, plus a tongue that can do all sorts of wonderful things, the mouth can vibrate if they make noise while you’re in there, your partner has more control over tightness etc.

    There’s also the aspects of submission to your partner, and the fact that like all oral, they aren’t getting direct stimulation themselves from it. They’re doing it for you because they just want you to feel great.

    It’s pretty hard to get a completely unenjoyable blowjob, but the ceiling on how great one can feel is fucking astronomical.

    It’s one of those things where you can end up chasing the “high water mark” of the best one you’ve had for decades. I hold on to vivid memories of one I had eighteen years ago. I find that sex can be similar, but seems to be easier to reach the heights of your best times because you have more personal control. Blowjobs rely entirely on your partner, and most people don’t enjoy getting pointers on technique, especially in the moment.

    So the mindblowing, life changing ones are rare. But it’s almost always fun.


    I don’t think most people wonder why women love recieving oral, so I’m kind of surprised people would be confused about blowjobs, lol.


  • They took the completed game and worked backwards to the underlying code that makes all of it work. They confirm it’s an exact match by using the code they worked backwards towards to make the game again and confirm they have an exact match to the orginal game file(s).

    Once this is done, it is possible to change literally anything about the game, as you have access to the code that makes it work. One of the most popular things to do is to replace the parts of the code that are specific to the console it was originally made for with code that can run on PC. This results in an accurate PC version of the original game. After that, other coders usually dig into the PC “version” to add all sorts of easy modding support.

    This has already been done with Super Mario 64, Ocarina of Time, and Star Fox 64, and they all have easily moddable PC versions now. This has resulted in things like Render96 and Ray Tracing support for SM64, a bunch of bug fixes and an insanely deep randomizer for OoT, and discovery of cut levels and entire game modes partially left in the game code that had only been mentioned in interviews in Star Fox 64.

    It’s also worth noting that similar projects exist for a whole bunch of other games. The Pokemon Emerald Reverse Engineering project has allowed all the absurd new romhacks with new features like Mariomon and Too Many Types 2, with Pokemon having 3 types and a total of like 70 types in game. Similar (but technically different under the hood) projects for Sonic Unleashed and the Jak series on PS2 have resulted in great moddable PC versions of those as well.




  • If I’m editing more than one object in AD I almost always use Powershell. It was one of the main motivations for me to learn it in the first place.

    It’s so obvious it was a GUI made for what was once a back end tool that wasn’t meant to be fussed with all the time, but then had more and more features slapped on top over time. And don’t get me started on the integration between AD and On-Premises Exchange Server. I don’t think I have much more than a 3 hour long exasperated scream in me about that bundle of fuck.



  • I’m kind of shocked that you feel like you can confidently claim you know this guy’s condition and the cause of him not receiving proper care when you had to be told to call 911 for someone fucking convulsing on the ground.

    You really tried to sneak that past by front loading with that tangent, lol.

    There’s a decent handful of conditions beyond brain trauma that can lead to convulsions. Unmedicated epilepsy is a pretty obvious one. Supposedly withdrawals from certain illegal substances as well. Hope the guy is getting help now.

    And ask any hospital worker, one of the most frustrating parts of care is that people can and do just walk the fuck out.





  • I do sys admin/engineering work in a Windows environment. PowerShell is what got me this job, and together with my programming experience allows me to keep up with my seniors who have been in their positions for a decade or more.

    It also helps us all make a good team. They have the knowledge and experience advantage (though I’m catching up), I have the skills to figure out how to implement/automate the plans in a way that doesn’t involve days of mind numbing manual actions.
