Ready Player One

If that were the case, they’d want to keep it going.

Do you think you can just end word’s with an S without consequence’s?

The fuck it is. There are cars everywhere. Also ironic that they show Shinagawa station in that pic. Go outside the west exit of that station and tell me how fucking walkable Tokyo is.

It is called the Martingale system.

Oscars grind works in a completely different fashion, and you do not raise your bet when you lose.

Did you try…two periods instead of three?

I sometimes accidentally do this and then get angry that the feature exists

Postscript is also literally just a text based programming language for drawing stuff. You can create loops and recursions and all kinds of crazy transformations with a few lines of code.

The fact that dipshit won an academy award for editing just kills me inside a little more every time I think about it.

Nothing is

I guess maybe we have different requirements, but I built a similar controller using a 68HC05 when I was in college (yes I am that old) and it had plenty of cycles left to burn. This thing is nearly an order of magnitude faster than the microcontroller I used.

EDIT: I will grant you the I/O is pretty limited, but you could also offload some of the work to an external timer/accumulator

The original DOOM ran on a 80386 which was actually slower than or roughly equivalent to this controller. Recommended system specs were for a 486 though which was maybe 2-3x as fast.

A 32bit @24MHz CPU is extremely overpowered for those use cases.

Qi operates in the 87-205 KHz range. A power tool is several orders of magnitude slower.

I know that toy store! It’s right next to a brewery tasting room in the same little building/complex. The place is loaded with crazily expensive vintage action figures.

Interesting you should mention that…

Have you played Doki Doki Literature Club?

I had a similar thing with a promotional card at a bar called Wurstküche in LA some years back shortly after it first opened. The card said something like “one free sausage” on it. The intent was you use the card once, and then they take it away and next time you want a delicious gourmet sausage you need to pay. All of my friends had one of these cards, and eventually they all were taken away, but they never took my card and we kept going back to that bar over and over again to get sausages and drink beer.

When I was in high school my friends and I were always finding creative ways to skip school and instead go out and do stuff. But, there was a limit of X days that you could be absent throughout the year, or else you’d have to make up the time by attending summer school.

In a conversation with some school admin staff I discovered that if you attend just one class during the day, any absence for the rest of the day was counted as 0.5 days in the attendance system.

So, we effectively doubled the number of days we could skip school by showing up for the first hour and then getting out to e.g. attend a dentist appointment.
