    Nature is a jerk and needs to stay where it’s supposed to be.

    Buying a pound of chocolate discs in bulk was a bad idea.

    The full line is "a long time ago in a galaxy far far away," so the apostle is really named after him.

    Still has a feeling of good chunkiness/discreteness that Endless Space doesn't have, and Stellaris is missing it too

    Like, if you want to go bomb a world, you fucking bomb it. No war exhaustion, diplo timers, etc etc etc

    Nah I am kind of joking. We did level up but not directly because we killed the planet. In this game you level up after you complete a big enough mission or amount of content.

    A friend of mine writes an interactive megaman x thing. In the aftermath of one of the fights, it was very nearly decided to forego one of the boss weapons because of how much of a piece of shit the source was. They did start seeing a therapist at least.
    The therapist ended up dead when Dr. Doppler kicked off the events of MMX3.

    It was that somehow, from within the derelict-horror, they had learned a way to see inside an ugly, broken thing... And take away its pain.

    @Deebaser

    My wife and I are kind of getting into it, still don't know what we're going to do re: shifts.

    I need to have a dedicated shift of like 3+ hours to review filings without losing a lot of progress from interrupted flow.

    She's on the opposite end and can't be out of radio contact for like, more than 90 minutes during the 8-5 since she's in marketing, and her workload right now is entirely COVID-related insurance publication so there's no advance warning.

    I told her I'd watch our 19 month old from 8-5 and just do a 6-11pm shift, with the understanding that I'm trying to squeeze 8 hours of work into that time. Realistically I should only need 3 or 4, which gives me some down time on the end.

    I'll have to respond to some inquiries during the day but I think I can mostly get those done while on shift with the kid, or should be able to ask for relief long enough to take care of things.

    @SummaryJudgment 8AM - 11PM is rough. Doubly so when 9 of those ours are with baby.

    We’re super fortunate that my company is being incredibly accommodating, Mrs. Deebaser company has basically shut down operations (which gives her a lot of breathing room), and neither one of us is gonna miss a paycheck. Still, she’s pretty much done with all our shit.

    This is going to be a rough couple of weeks. Good luck!

    I got a Logitech C920S. Works fine and was cheap. The Logitech software is equal parts useful and irritating.

    I probably would have picked something else for streaming in hindsight, but as a normal webcam it seems perfectly adequate.

    Get a bench scraper if you don’t already have one. It makes a world of difference.
