I was disgusted by the XML at first, but it’s a readable query returning a sane JSON object.
Meanwhile, I’m mantaining Java code where the SQL is a perfectly square wall of text, and some insane mofo decided the way to read the resulting list of Object[] 🤮 is getting each column by index… so I’d switch to SQXMLL in a heartbeat.
I used to get myself into traps like that a lot, “I need to get that impossible achievement”, “I need to play only at the highest difficulty”, “I need to get 200% completion”.
At the end of the day video games are just toys, play them as you like and if you’re not enjoying it just do something else instead. After I realized that games are fun again.
This ghost achievement in particular is a very hard challenge run, the kind of thing you go for after you finished the game and want more with an extra twist, trying to force it on your first time playing is guaranteed to be frustrating
I will never stop being mad that “literally” got a new dictionary definition that’s literally not literally
Only OK if you also jerk off onto the pizza
No, he didn’t “let people die”.
He actively contributed to those deaths.
Right wing media spent the entire pandemic fighting against distancing, masks, vaccines, against science. And pretending horse dewormer was a miracle solution for everything. But it turns out reality isn’t a political opinion, and millions of people died because of those lies.
When humanity was fighting against covid, Republicans were fighting on the virus’ side

The chad slacker represents all the people stuck in bs jobs, where the only purpose is making some rich asshole richer, and the only reward for hard work is more bs work.
If you have a job where you do something meaningful and get properly rewarded, great, you’re right for enjoying that and not wanting to slack. Most of us slackers are jealous

Makes more sense than “war on drugs” and “war on terror”
Ok, and how does your way of thinking fix being stuck 2 party system where nothing ever changes and the rich get richer?
If you have a realistic plan for sistemic change sign me up, otherwise the only option we have in this pathetic excuse for a democracy is to keep voting for the lesser evil and against the fascists
That sounds worse than a complete AI art ban. If you’re an amateur dev with an idea, some programming skill and zero budget, you can’t use AI art to make your game look a little better than all the crappy asset flips. But if you’re a big studio with a portfolio to train the AI on, you can cut 90% of your art team to use mostly AI. Indie devs lose, artists lose and big corps win, as usual
“No nazi shit” is a simple rule that should be the default on any decent community. That’s enough to get rid of the_donald and anything like that that pops up, without slippery slopes or “special rules for one person”
Remember a few years ago when a teenager took an interstate trip to play cop and threaten black people with a gun?
And then he ended up killing some people and cried a lot in the trial (“I’m the victim” tears, not “I regret murdering those guys” tears)
And he became a conservative star.
