The ballooning system requirements in the games industry are bullshit

Watching the bear vs man in forest stories & I remember when our 9-year-old son said some boys at recess offered to play with him if 'he hugged & kissed a girl.'

He replied, "No, that's inappropriate," & told us he didn't mind not being able to play with those boys after all. Later his teacher shared she was happy he stood up to peer pressure.

Y'allβ€”it's never too early to teach boys about consent & boundaries. Have the convo. Then again. And again. Boys will be the boys we teach them to be.

My plan is to learn and use some flavor of Linux as my primary OS so I won't have to use Windows 11 after October 2025. I'm thinking of getting started with Mint Cinnamon

imagine buying a game cartridge in a physical store then 5 years later the manufacturer comes to your house and takes it back because the music license expired. that's basically digital game stores

Hackers:

When you first launch a game do you...

everybody is always doing temporary things "for the time being". who is this Time Being? What are its motives? and how does it compel so many to carry out its will?
