JeeBaiChow, in If Trump loses in 2024, do you think he'd run in 2028?

If his base doesn’t learn that they’re supporting a grifting criminal, and he continues to be able to fleece them unabated, sure.

So if you have ever dealt with PLCs beyond the basics you know that timing/parallelism is a clusterfuck of misery and pain until you get to the point where you can master it.

I am pretty decent at keeping multiple things going as a result.

Getting involved in local street design projects, and making a literally concrete difference.

When I start a personal project I create a readme file that has a ToDo section and a Change Log section. Anything I think of that I might want to do I put under ToDo, break it into small chunks and prioritize it. When a task is completed under the ToDo section, I move it to the Change Log section. Easy to maintain, track progress, and documents both a Road Map and Changes all in one place. It also has a section for references to shared assets that need attribution. Actually to keep it simple the same document usually also has an about section, an installation section, and a usage section.

  1. Simplify problems before trying to solve them.
  2. Generalizable solutions are better than ones that aren’t.

Working on a musical composition in the style of Fugazi as a tribute to them.

Sometimes I proud of myself of just solving problems that haven’t settled in days, which makes me a bit of achievement.

Matrix. I have bridges set up so I can message to Discord or WhatsApp through it.

Revolt is like Discord, but FOSS and run by some other people. Unfortunately it’s not federated, or else I’m ranking it higher than everything.

rtxn, in Other than Lemmy, what are you doing tonight?

Writing my letter of resignation, developing a Blender extension, and watching a streamer play Control (specifically the ashtray maze) for the first time.

BiggestBulb, in What's the best gaming console and why?
@BiggestBulb@kbin.social avatar

I think I'm in the minority, but PS3. It was the most powerful console of its time, it released The Last of Us, Uncharted, Gran Turismo and a ton of other classics and the PSN was free to use.

It also had my favorite game of all time on it - Littlebigplanet 2. The custom levels people made were insane.

the_q,

The SNES. Why? Because it was the best console.

thanevim,

I mean, you can't neglect the prior 2 PlayStation generations. Gran Turismo started on ps1 with the first two, and the next two on PS2. Besides that, great entries like the first three Spyro games, Jak and Dexter, Ratchet and Clank... And let's not forget just home much freaking staying power the PS2 had! Was still getting new games alongside Wii, Xbox 360, even the PS3

BiggestBulb,

That's fair about the staying power, but I prefer playing Multiplayer so the PS2 and 1 never hit the same (I did play them a lot as well though - I had the OG Gran Turismo, Tenchu: Stealth Assassins, Duke Nukem: Time to Kill, Metal Gear Solid and a bunch of others for PS1, and I had NFS: Underground 2, Gran Turismo: A-Spec, Medal of Honor: Frontline and a bunch of others for PS2 as well). I do respect how well they did, but I really enjoy multiplayer (and the PS2 multiplayer didn't do it for me)

TropicalDingdong, in Other than Lemmy, what are you doing tonight?

Trying to get some code completed so I can justify flying to big island to hang out with friends tomorrow.
