I was moderating the twitch chat for the pax stream at prime.
And we were giving out lol codes.
It was fucking madness.
life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies

SiG can you tell me who murdered your sense of humor? Who did it? Have you been talking to Nerdgasmic
are you going to start feeling ways about things
I'm sorry you feel that way
I don't feel any way! I know you are all legal eagle, but you don't have to defend EVERYONE. Especially paxers. Jesus those guys are terrible. Especially the ones with patches on their bag.
Singular. Bag.
Meaning they've had the same bag for more than one year.
Wow.
Just wow.
Thank you for your feedback !

TehSlothHit Or MissI Guess They Never Miss, HuhRegistered Userregular
i've only been to one panel ever (q&a with mike and jerry). i liked it actually, i dunno why i never did another panel of any sort. just never shakes out. i'd rather spend that time talking to friends i guess than quietly watching a presentation.
And they cut all the Q&A with Mike and Jerry this year!
I'm so sad... now I only have 1 panel to go to... what will I do with all this extra time?
I think they do Q&A during make a strip, but I could be misremembering. Weird that they aren't doing the regular Q&A though this year.

They do, which is why I'm still going to that.
But Mike is usually pretty occupied with drawing so you don't get quite the same interaction between the two of them.
I'm curious if any of you happen to know how well Mac OS X handles its own garbage collection of deleted files, seeing as by design they mostly - as far as I'm aware - take that out of your hands.

Not quite sure what you mean WRT "garbage collection of deleted files"
Garbage collection of objects and arrays in memory is pretty solid...
When you delete a file, it drops it from the file system... if you delete a file via interface / Automator functions it goes into a trash bin...
OSX is SMART capable now, so SSDs don't get junked over a long enough timeline like they used to...
If I put a file into the bin and I force the bin to empty, is it still cluttering up my usable memory until OS X gets around to doing something else later? In the manner that such a deletion would still leave memory less usable on Windows, but which you can fix there with a defrag.
It kind of feels on the basis of my laptop slowing down over time that yes, there is some defrag corollary that needs to run and sometimes does, but no it does not run immediately and no you cannot force it to run.
I made a game! Hotline Maui. Requires mouse and keyboard.

They do Q&A during make-a-strip.
Also having seen the dumb bullshit the Q&A panels always descended into, i'm kind of glad they are only doing the one, and prescreening the questions.

i think i need to try and go back to school therapy like i was, since i don't have insurance for an outside thing. my levels of self-hatred at sabotaging my future are cresting all-time highs and i shouldn't feel like this. dunno how much just talking to someone will help; can't get medication at this point because medicaid and all. but i've gotta try something? kind of sucks.

You see that picture? I see a bunch of scrawny scrubs standing in between me and a LoL Skin. That's what I see. I don't see a barrier, I see an opportunity to violate all kinds of personal space. We can make a game of it. The game starts by taking two klonopin each. Then you wait about 15 minutes, and start slowly walking forward into the sea of nerd.

i am p sure that, just like on windows, the deallocated bytes are not immediately blanked out - they are just made available for allocation and overwritten whenever data is allocated in those sectors.
if you need something blanked out you should get a utility that does this.
I really want to skip this management class. I feel like shit and have been nodding off all day.
Twiiiiiins.
I was torn because I wanted to ask for clarification about something in one of my classes today, but oh gawd did the sleepiness help my question to sound dumb, and damn did that compound things.

This is pretty much the best thing I've seen all day
I generally haven't done many panels cause I don't like standing in lines as Hanging with friends or walking around
As its grown the line thing has grown too
The first two PAXes were unbelievably cool because, like, damn near anyone could fall into a small-group, impromptu, 10-20 minute hangout session with Mike and/or Jerry.

See, those are even easier. You don't push forward, you grab the handle and yank backwards. Physics, my boy. Physics.

Do any of you remember an article on the dangers of extrapolation, that was on Medium (yuck, I know)? Had graphs and stuff.
get dunked, late adopters

They do, which is why I'm still going to that.

i think u were right the first time tho
"it's" is a contraction of "it is" or "it has"
as in "it has grown"
all that editing for naught
Nope.

it's a ghost town

seriously tho i've been playing a little bit recently
mafia graves still because i am a boring person who fears change
the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
I have PAX Sivir
I don't have PAX Jax
I'm completely OK with this
because playing Jax is comimtting a crime against fun where the victim is yourself and 9 strangers
I am always so bad at asking for more money. Meaning I never do.
