What even was that persons comparison. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills sometimes. How are sex and murder even slightly related? I'm sure if I was 14 again I'd say something like "they give and take life, they are two sides of the same coin" or something like that that totally misses the fucking point.

^(I'm replying to you because last time replied to one of these people directly I was botted for like a week. )

Thanks for the context! Thought that was weird for a second.

Why does this happen? I feel like the stupidest person in the world 90% of the time. Log into work and our PostgreSQL server is about to fall over. I don't know PostgreSQL, I didn't setup the server and I generally don't have anyone on to help me, but I manage to execute a complicated fix before it implodes. Then I go back to forgetting where I put my phone down every thirty seconds.

I just got diagnosed a year and a half ago or so. Reading other peoples stories has really helped me reflect on the past and put every thing in context.

"An ownership mindset." At least they're open and honest from the title on.

You don't know that. What if it's one of them turtles with the world on its back? They live forever, even the small ones. What if its like a lobster turtle with the world on its back? There'd be algae!

Even Disney admitted to it in the 90s when it made Aladdin Prince of thieves. That's why they don't want anyone studying nessy: she's got king midas' hand stored in a temple on her back. They don't want people to be able to print gold and ruin their centuries long scam. You should research this. It's called Aladdin and the prince of thieves I think it was direct to vhs. I don't think it's on YouTube anymore because of quiet revolution of upper Canada.

~~Julie~~ Julia Evans! I love her stuff. I haven't read her blog in a bit, this is now a good excuse.

I wish I was a good enough dev to write a swift keys replacement. There's AnySoftKeyboard available, and they're doing an amazing job with swipe input which I prefer, but there's only so much one person can do.

This is now canon in the lore. I propose a time heist.

The worst part is they don't tell you where the party is. Must be one of those low key rave groups.

I can't help you with stock market stuff unfortunately. To be honest, I wouldn't want to have to deal with the headache of it all myself. If you're still interested in writing a bot though a great way to learn is to pickup the programming language Python. There is a ton of free material out there for beginners. A good first project for when you start to feel comfortable is writing your own discord bot. If you're interested I can try to find some links after work to share!

He's written a lot of fan fic style stuff that's present in the library as I'm sure you've seen. It's a good light read within the context of the game, but yeah. I don't think it's enough to carry a movie.

Edit: I've removed myself from almost all media besides lemmy, do we have an eta on the haunted chocolatier game? Just wondering. I want him to develop it on his own timeline so we get something he's proud of.

Edit 2: Just saw that there's no release date so he can work in peace without all the deadline pressure. I'm glad he's setting boundaries. I feel like we'll get a better game in the long run because of it.
