@icedquinn the eternal struggle between
- all monsters of the same species are exactly the same clones and boring
- you feel compelled to catch hundreds of monsters of the same species to roll for good IVs

@pupxel now I'm very curious about the complexity because it kinda looks like 3 vertices and a `varying`.

If Blink the engine for Chrome forked off of WebKit and WebKit forked off of KHTML, the engine from the KDE project does that mean that KDE is to blame for Chrome.

Now that astronomy departments have used up “very large telescope” and “extremely large telescope”, successors will have to built in Australia. “Crikey look at the size of that fucker telescope” comes online in 2032.

Just imagine being taken seriously as a customer. Not having to send emails back and forth for several weeks, getting back only templated responses. Not seeing them attempting everything in the book to eventually just weasel out of helping you.

Every time I contact Prusa's support it becomes harder and harder to justify buying from another brand. It's simply outstanding.

They actually helped identify & fix my problem. Even if it meant sending me a free replacement part. For a machine that's two years out of warranty.

I know competitors seemingly offer better value for money, but that support experience is worth every cent.

I urge anyone who only saw the angry toots and haters - i.e., everyone - to actually read the comments on the bug report regarding systemd deleting /home.

Aside from that first reply which was trash, virtually everything after that was super reasonable and honest about how dumb this issue was, discussing countless solutions to make sure this never happens again.

I did some pre-build planning for another Terrible Keyboard and in the process discovered that you can buy uranium ore on amazon.

maybe I should scale this one back a bit

@icedquinn as long as it increases Linux market share and makes both developers give a shit about it and gamers able to use it painlessly... Once it gets big enough, developing multiplatform games should become standard simply to avoid wine's overhead and limitations.
