Gabe doesn't even work at valve anymore. He passed the torch long ago. Please don't keep repeating this.

I feel like... cybernetic implants will be here in a few years. They'll be designed by AI and incomprehensible to any human. They'll also be unaffordable to you, or anyone close to your age, allowing boomers and billionaires to outlive the children whose future they stole, again.

Oh, sorry, would I? Nah, I'd never be able to afford it.

Try not to think like this because when it does happen, it won't be anything like what you've imagined. I always thought it would be a sudden, heartbreaking thing, but instead it was a year long slide into cat-dementia. I was lucky in that he stopped being his usual self months before it happened, giving me time to wind down my emotions when the day finally came.

Probably my 2lb jar of mercury. Have fun disposing of that toxic waste!

My parents still have one that's probably older than I am. I figured it's just some gimmick lock from back in the day that was marketed as "high security" because of the wierd looking key. They have a thing about this, y'know how some people have to have some kinda edge on the "rest of the plebs", can't just be normal and buy a normal lock, no they gotta buy.... this thing.

My ICOM IC-7000. We take it out almost every weekend to a park and work some ham radio. Manufactured in 2006 making it 20 years old!

People still use those Abloy locks?

then my neighbor is gonna have an interesting conversation with the cops about how much illegal drugs he's been ordering over the internet. Geez man, that's not even a reasonable argument, nobody has an open wifi, it's not 2001 anymore.

You probably don't want to do this. People will get salty and DDOS your server. I ran a KF2 server for like 5 years and eventually the traffic overwhelmed my connection and I had to stop.

Discovered a fire in my garage. My sister had thrown a cigarette butt into an overfull ashtray which was also plastic, something combusted. I was none the wiser though and opened the door to the garage only to be greeted with an opaque, fuckin straight outta Dark Souls lookin, WALL OF GREY SMOKE. I slammed that door in a panic thinking that exact same "I GOTTA GET OUT OF HERE NOW!", ran out of the house and clicked the garage door opener as I went. We saw rolls of black smoke pour out of there but thankfully it was just a small fire and didn't reach the walls. Scary shit considering zero smoke detectors went off!

I wish I knew. I spoke to my brother about this a while ago, and told him I'd never gone to a doctor because I always thought it was a "strength of will" thing. He told me that was insane. First thing he did was get to a doctor and get prescribed. The thought never crossed my mind.

Similarly I was watching some show with my partner and this guy in the show talks derisively to he daughter: "I bought you your anti-di-pressants, what more do you want?" And he's stressing the word, like he believes it's some kinda party drug. I think that mentality is a very real thing and hits other areas like birth control too. "I didn't have this for ME and thus I resent you taking the easy way out!" seems to be the thought process.

Why do you think there's such an interest in VFIO and passing a graphics card thru to a VM? You think all these people are just happily making their own cloud gaming Stadia clone? Nah fam, they're fucking cheaters trying to hide their tracks. For every five legit posts there's a "why can't I get BattleEye/EAC to work in a VM?" JUST STOP CHEATING BRO
